Show WISHING YOU A PROSPEROUS NEW YEAR WISHING YOU A HAPPY NEW YKAK Nephi, Juab County, Utah Thursday, The Times, Vol. 23, No. 52 H AIRPORT 10 HI BE RUILT Happy New Year Neighbor NEPIII COUPLES OBSERVE 11 HI PLANS MATURE If Nephi City Will Lease Necessary Land, Civil Works Will Adminstraton Finance Building LOCAL MEN TO WORK Five Year Lease With An Option to Buy Required By Government For the past several years there has bofcii coioiu(?i able discussion In Nephi concerning the feasibility of building an airport these discussions have generally ended up with the fact that Nephi could not afford to purchase the necessary land and build an airport, so each time the matter has been dropped. But under the Civil Works Administration, the government has seen fit to appropriate the necessary funds for the building of airports, providing adequate land is secured. A representative of the department of Commerce was in Nephi last Friday, for the sole purpose of stimulating the desire to secure an airport for this city. The plan as outlined, is for Nephi City to lease a tract of land for a five year period, with an option to purchase the land at the expiration of the lease. If the city would lease the necessary land, the Civil Works Administration would build the airport, furnihing all the necessary funds, which estimated amount to several thousand dollars. It is understood that the CWA will furnish adequite funds for the completion of the airport. The C. W. A. throughout Nephi is going on rapidly. There is ap- proximately one street graveled each day, and from three to six streets being graded. Wilford Bailey, head of the Streets and Highways Committee of the Nephi City council, asks the people of Nephi to please be patient about the looks oi the front of their homes, promising that in the near future, it will be graveled and repaired. o Radio Programs Are Arranged By U.S.A.C.

Economic Highlights Precisely aj an unlooked for drop the fall dishearten the nation, an unlooked for Improvement in business of all Winds at this time is brightening it now. The fall lows have been left aside and most industries are approaching the spring highs. Some late reports follow: Chain stores Incomplete November reports indicate a 15 per cent 1932. Improvement over November Brad-street, Dun and Retail Trade expert feelers of the industrial pulse, say that the season's volume is at the best level in two years. This Is in direct rebuttal to earlier 1 ports which showed a lag in sales. In states Building Contracts east of the Rockies November totals were 54 per cent above a year ago. Steel Operations recently rose to where the industry was operating at better than 31 per cent of cap- -' acity, as compared with 25 per cent at the same time last year. November sales in 14 Motors representative states were 115 pei cent over November, 1932, and truck sales were 92 per cent ahead. Perhaps the most accurate way of getting at the heart of the matter is through corporation reports. They have been almost uniformly improved. The Federal Reserve corporation reported net profits of 295 corporations as being $162,000,000 in the third quarter, as compared with net loss a year earlier $25,000,000 According to a New York Times tabulation, 17 corporations increas ed dividends this November, where 6 did last November; 34 declared extra dividends, as compared with 28; 30 resumed dividends, as compared with 7; 10 reduced dividends, where 39 did a year ago; 13 omitted dividends entirely, where 55 sent the bad news to the stockholder in the previous period. The best dividend showing of any industrial group has been made by the textile companies. In business during Dir. will be the prime topic. A tremen dous amount of criticism has been directed at Mr. Roosevelt's gold buying campaign and his refusal to stabilize the dollar. He shows nc sign of deviating from his pres ent plans, and a congressional mm ority will work out on him vocally on that score. There will be endless t:tlk concerning inflation and de flation. It's probable that the Ad ministration will continue to steer a middle course, between the ex treme inflationists on one hand. and the old-limoney men on the other. The President is having the act examined to eliminate features that have made much leg itimate financing impossible If a 1'beralizing change is made, h will pel many bouquets from business.
