17 Albany Blackout Today's Market Reminds Courl Aide Albany Gels Bill War Forces Closing Of Ciro's in Hollywood No More Movie Stars, No More Tourists, So Expensive Bistro Gives Up the Ghost Of I. Hurricane 'To Outlaw Racket OROOKLWJ EAGLE FINANCIAL TUESDAY, JANUARY 13, 1942 In Bail Bonds Assemblyman Finds That 'It's Like Being Inside a Coffin' new Income taxes helped their state of mind." Since Dec. 7, Wllkerson said, the burgundy-satin walls have echoed to the footfalls of lonesome waiters, while his chartreuse-silk chairs have been occupied only occasionally by customers paying $3.50 for dinner, $2.00 for the privilege of sitting down, and 75 cents and up, mostly up. for drinks. The only loyal fans have been the autograph seekers, who crowded round the front door, night after night, looking In vain for the La-mours, the Turners, the GarJands, the Sherldans and all the other picture beauties who for two years spent more time in Ciro's than they ever did In libraries.

"But what haappened to us Is only an example," Wllkerson said. "Since the Japs attacked Pearl Harbor, 61 night clubs in this territory have shut down." Hollywood, Jan. 13 CUR) Ciro's, the plus-lined hot spot of the molve stars and perhaps America's most expensive night club, shut its silver-plated doors today because to quote the proprietor the erstwhile customers have packed their ermines away and gone Into mourning over Pearl Harbor. "The tourists used to come to see the picture actors," reported William B. Wllkerson, the owner, "now there aren't any tourists.

They've been scared away by the wild-eyed rumors about air raids in Hollywood. Either that or they're afraid to use up their automobile tires. "And there aren't any movie stars in the night spots, anyhow. They all seem to have gone into mourning over Pearl Harbor. They don't seem to think it's right any more to go out and spend their money enjoying themselves.

Nor have the Life Insurance Policies Held By 66 Millions Johnson Reports Gain For 1941 With Totals Now at Record Volume The opening of 1942 finds Americans owning life Insurance policies after an eventful year featured by many important actions taken to protect policyholders' Interests and to further Improve the functioning of the business, Holgar J. Johnson, president of the Institute of Life Insurance, stated in his year-end review of life Insurance. Life insurance management, with a background of experience in meeting the crises precipitated by the four wars and seven depressions in which this country has been Involved during the 100-year history of the business, and with a record of not only guiding the institution safely through these emergencies, but with Increased strength, has pledged energetic support to President Roosevelt in aiding the nation's war effort. One of the direct ways in which life insurance contributes to the war effort la through investment of its funds being held for policyholders for future claim payments. At the close of 1941 the life insurance companies had $6,400,000,000 of their funds Invested in Government Bankers Discuss War Financing Here Today Aldrich and Rentschler Stress Necessity Of Careful Action to Prevent Inflation Direct bank financing of armament Industry and defense bond financing of war expenditures can reduce the inflationary dangers inherent In America's multi-billion-dollar victory program, heads of the nation's two largest commercial banks asserted here today.

Cltol Albany, Jan. 13 Scores of Brook-lynltes know for the first time today what the experiences and sensations of a grand-scale blackout are like. "It reminded me," said one, "of the time the hurricane swept Long Island and the power lines were disrupted." Another said: "It's like being Inside a coffin." Others told of standing stock still in darkened Capitol offices and corridors in order to avoid bruised shins as the penalty for attempting to walk about during the blackout, and still others related efforts to finish dinner they were eating when the sirens sounded. In common with Governor Lehman, Mrs. Lehman and high State and Albany's municipal officials, every Brooklynite here, including the Senate and Assembly delegations, legislative employes and visitors, went through last night's Capitol area and agreed that a blackout Is something which must be experienced to be understood.

Out of the experience came two concrete declarations. Senator James J. Crawford, who said the inside of the Capitol literally became "black as night," said he would introduce a measure doubling penalties for crimes committed during blackouts. Assemblyman Lewis W. Olliffe said; "This should be a good lesson to us at home.

We ought to have practice blackouts and the sooner the better." It was Olliffe who observed that BULLETINS Civilian Radio Output to End Industry Will Switch To Government Orders Washington, Jan. 13 Next two or three months should find the radio Industry almost completely out of civilian production and well on the way toward war production by Winthrop W. Aldrich, chairman of the board of the Chase National Bank, and by Gordon S. Rentschler, chairman of the board of the National City Bank of New York. The banks are first and second respectively, In world ranking among private institutions.

KCHM ALACKER Albany, Jan. 13 Drastic legislation to outlaw the bail bond racket was Introduced today by Senator Daniel Gutman iD Brooklyn) with the declaration that the measure. If enacted, would "cut the lifeline between organized crime and profe.vlonal bondsmen." He announced that he the legislation at the request of Attorney General Bennett and Assistant Attorney General Amen and upon the recommendation of the extraordinary grsnd Jury which investigated the racket in Brooklyn. A salient feature of the proposed statute is that lt would compel profe.ssional bondsmen to bare the sources of their premiums.

The bondsmen would be obliged to appear before a prand Jury and waive immunitv. when requested, under penalty of having their licenses revoked. Senator Gurman announced the legislation will be co-sponsored by Assemblyman Harry Suitor.

Exclude certain types of offenses for which the police would be barred from fixing bail. "I believe this legislation. If passed, will go a long way toward eliminating organized crime." Senator Gutman said. "It would. I believe, cut the lifeline between organized crime and professional bondsmen and enable our grand juries to find out who is behind a criminal when he is arrested and released through the swift production of ball." The investigation conducted by Amen and the grand jury resulted in the forced resignations of more than a score of police sergeanU, lieutenants and captains.

"Reliance upon commercial bank credit to finance war expenditures tends to bring about inflation, whereas the use of bank credit to finance industry diminishes the chances of inflation," he said. Aldrich pointed out that credit used to finance war industries does not remain outstanding, but is retired eventually from the proceeds of taxes and Government loans.

He reported that customers and employes of the bank and its trust company af to be caught in a blackout without a flashlight was "like being inside 000,000 annually.

War production plans for the radio industry are being completed in the Office of Production Management and the War Department. According to officials, the Industry will get orders for "considerably" more than $1,000,000,000 for Army and Navy equipment. The chances are that orders will continue upward for the year 1942 as plans for the great offensive in 1943 art developed. Radios for the civilian population will be tapered off less drastically than was the case In automobiles, officials said, but ultimately all the facilities of the industry, plus some outside industries, will be working entirely on Government radio contracts. Normally the radio industry's points.

A long list of coppers were up at least a point. In the rails, a number were near their T941-42 highs, including Gulf, Mobile preferred and Atchison common. Southern Pacific and Atlantic Coast Line also displayed strength. Sugars came in for attention, and rubbers were prominent on the upside. U.

S. Rubber, Goodrich and Goodyear each gained a point or more at the best. Similar improvement was 6hown by Dow Chemical, Du Pont, West-lnghouse Electric, Standard Oil of N. J. and Coca Cola.

Elsewhere gains generally were limited to fractions. Domestic corporate bonds edged higher today in quiet trading. Gains were most marked in the medium-priced rails, which advanced as much as a point. Higher-priced rails held steady. Third Avenue Railway issues continued strong, with large fractional gains in some of the obligations.

Benefit payments under death claims approximated one billion dollars during 1941, and in addition living policyholders received approximately $1,500,000,000 In the form of matured endowment payments, annuities, disability income, emergency cash from policy reserves and policy dividends. Continuation of the record low rate of return on Investments resulted in the first step by some companies towards a reduction in the guaranteed interest base for life insurance policies to 2'4 percent from the old 3 or 3'4 percent base.

This new Interest base, however, will apply only to new policies being issued. Life insurance a coffin.
