Chrysler Report Is Unfavorable President Issues SUtement, Saying, Company's Position Is Good NEW YORK, May 3 (). Poor first quarter earnings announced by; the Chrysler corporation, today, were coupled with an announcement by Walter P. Chrysler, president, that the company's position Is good; that dur tag the year ending March 31, the dl vldend requirement were earned. The corporation's debt reduced and its ratio of current assets over Ubalities increased. Net earnings for the first three months amounted to but $180,717, equal to four cents share on 4,431, 575 no par common shares.

They compare with 38,838,173, or $2 a share on 4,411,990 shares In the corresponding quarter of 1939. In his statement, Mr. Chrysler said that the "net operating profits for the 12 months ending March 31, were $13,244,712, which shows that notwithstanding the current recession In business, the corporation during the past 12 months has earned Its dividends, reduced Its debt and substantially maintained Its net current asset position." rrhA nf purrnf. afi.f. tn cur rent liabilities, after providing for first ouarter dividends, was to i.

as against 2.77 to 1, on March 21, 1929. Conditions More Stabilised "rvinrittnnx tn the automobile In dustry are now more stabilized and the Industry has probably turned the corner for the better," Mr. Chrysler said. "There has been a marked shift in the character of automobile business toward lower priced models and the Chrysler corporation Is in a posi tion to improve progressively lis snare oi tne cnangmg mantec. Th xnmenl4Hatjrl statement for the quarter shows that during that period operations resulted in a aencii oi 142 ARB after neivment of common dl vldends compared with a surplus of $5,529,181 In the first quarter of last year.

Used Car Section Opened by Martz Irving C. P. Sudrow. manager of the Fracjk Martz company, has been active in Scranton since the acquisition of Reo cars and trucks by his com pany as a line in addition to Cadillac and La Salle. Realizing the importance of such a large range of' passenger cars and commercial vehicles he immediately began to reorganize both personell and housing facilities.

William Teeter and John McLaughlin both long identified with the sale of Reo products were quickly engaged by Mr. Sudrow as were Robert Schmidt, well known in Scranton, but formerly from New York, and Harry Gordan, Rochester, who likewise is well trained in modern day motor car merchandising. These men, along with Walter Winters, Ralph Robinson and John Powell, now comprise the new sales organization. "In this business, as in all business," Mr. Sudrow went on to say.

in an interview with a Republican reporter, "move. Whether the direction be foreward or backward depends largely on what we sell, how we sell it and who contacts with the buying public in the sale of It. In any event we move, no business ever stands still. Consequently men who make up a business move too. Those who keep step with business progress move up while those who do not move down until they eventually step out of the picture entirely.

Cruel as this may sound, it Is In keeping with the legi timate rights of the buyer who seeks and most assuredly is entitled to service of a constantly Improved nature." "I have been keenly Interested in Scranton and It's people since making this my home and planned long on changes which experiences convinced me would further our business and benefit our patrons. Consequently I analyzed our make up for short comings and found, as most of us find, when we truthfully seek to find, that we had some," he stated "New general and executive offices provide ease and convenience to those who have business transactions with s. Our parts department was likewise enlarged and now extends clear across the front of the second floor of our building at 1110 Wyoming avenue. Edward Kozlowskl well known to Cadillac La Salle owners, is in charge assisted by Jack Grill, newly appointed, but long with Reo." Our service department has undergone many changes. Service is largely a problem of mental attitude toward trade.

With proper tools, genuine parts, light airy working facilities and experienced men, service should be uniform to everybody, but human nature differs and customers and workmen sometimes clash over little I things with a result that some cus tomers get more consideration than others." "To round out our problem of expansion, we have leased a separate display building at 1119 Wyoming avenue for our used cars. To acquaint the public quickly with this new additionwe are opening today with a used car sale that is bound to start Scranton talking. Every car is dras tlcly priced way low and every car displayed Is 'pre servlced' before delivery and sold with a guarantee to protect purchasers. We also allow buyers five days free trial which gives everyone ample time In which to decide whether they really want the car selected or not," Mr. Sudrow stated.

Our used car sales room, 119 Wyoming avenue, will remain open dally from 8:30 a. m. to 10 p. m. and Sundays from 9 a.

m. to 4 p. m. Scranton Man Is Held as Communist Special to The Republican WILKES BARRE, May 2.

TO1 COUMTiMV WAves, or MeAsuiM' SftyMS, OR SUMPlNi I Bjfore swinging the stick again, let's talk it over amons'ourselves. Why doesn' he want to come? Per haos he Is engrossed in something.

If your husband called you at Just the moment when you were pouring hot jelly Into tumblers, what would you say? Would you rush pell mell into his arms or run for his slippers? No, mother, you would finish your job and you might poitely, or impolitely, tell him yoir are busy. I have never seen a child who was playing In the back yard or up in the 'attic or down in the cellar who wasn't extremey busy. His Is a serious business. And when we ask him to come we are interrupting him in a work which he thinks is Just as important as that work of yours. The first time we call or yell, which is always unfortunate, he doesn't hear us any more than you and I hear commands while we are engrossed.

By and by he hears the words and his immediate reply is, "Yes, Motner, in Just a minute." How many times do you say thut yourself? As a matter of fact we all do it. How would It do to consider that your command is merely an interruption and it might be well for you to apologize for Interrupting, just as you would expect a grown up to apologize If he or she Interrupted you. Of course mothers do not think children are people and that respect and courtesy is due them. But if you really think your chid is a person and not a thing, it might be well to treat him as you would want to be treated. Again, did you ever get angry, when your husband suddenly and imperiously demanded your Instant attention, and when you got to his side he showed you a dry goods bill and demanded to know why vou paid thirty nine cents for an article when you knew he could get the same article lor thirty six and a half? You know what you said or at least what you thought.

Did it ever occur to you that sometimes your demand of "Come this instant," to your child is just as unreasonable as some of the demands which your husband makes upon you, or which you, perhaps, make on your husband? Naturally the child shoud come when your demand Is reasonable and when it is requested politely. And he will come Just in proportion as ha respects you more than he respects the whip, and when he likes you mots than he loves sugar. Our Converudion Corner THE PRICE OF ALGEBRA I intend to be a dentist but I don't see what use geometry will have in pulling teeth. But colleges require it and therefore I must waste my time studying It. I don't mean geometry Is an wet but I don't think everyone should be required to take it.

Of all the subjects I ever took algebra Is most senseless and trying. Many classmates shed tears trying to get the stuff done correctly. I never shed tears over It, but It has made me a bigger grouch than anything I know of. I am with you, against algebra. ONLY A FRESHMAN.

LeRoy Maeder, of the Pennsylvania Public Charities association, talked to a group oi executives of the welfare agencies of the city, at a meeting May 1 in the Chamber of Commerce building. Immediately proceeding the period of this conference seems an appropriate time to get the opinion of representative groups on the mental hygiene needs of local communities. The Scranton group found Dr. Maeder's stimulation and advice particularly helpful in facing their own problems. Dr.

Maeder outlined the development In Philadelphia through the work of a committee formed from the welfare agencies which finally led to the establishment of the present AH Phlla delphia child guidance The city has so appreciated the work of this mental health group, that from Its original establishment as a commonwealth demonstration, It Is now partly supported by the Philadelphia Community Chest. Scranton's needs indicate urgent situation, so far as further mental hygiene resources are concerned. Dr. Maeder focused the attention of the group toward ultimately creating a mental health clinic headed by a psychiatrist who is a physician with special training in understanding mental diseases and behavior maladjustments, as well as problems ol delinquency. Assisting him, it will be necessary to have a psychologist, who is trainedln determining menUi ability and disability, and who may be able to gauge the intellectual capacity of the individual examined.

A psychiatric social worker, who Is' trained in the application and social methods of investigation and treatment from the psychiatric point of view, completes tills mental nygiene team. The various agencies reported a great pressure of cases for whom further treatment is blocked because of lack of an available psychiatrist, who alone is capable of diagnosing these cases presenting psyciuatnc as pects.

The curb market carried off sharply today, the more active issues generally losing 1 to 8 points, while some ot the high priced specialities lost 10 to 20 points.
