Stewart-Warner reported a $1,791,000 loss for 1933 but in February sales were running 150% ahead of last year. In last week's annual report, a model of frankness, the new management asked the stockholders at the annual meeting in April to authorize a reduction in par value of the stock so that another write-off of $2,400,000 could be taken.

...Government declared out of office any man elected to anything on the Socialist ticket. A single labor union on the Italian Fascist model was promised.
