Teamster
Crackdown
Predicted'
.. .
WASHINGTON (UPIl New
.1 crackdowns on corruption in the
i canisters Union were forecast
today as a result of a;i Aupellate
' Court order directing Teamsters'
resident James 1. Hoffa to com
ply with reform recommendations.
A source close to the board of
monitors named to ride herd on
the way Hoffa runs the giant un
ion told United Press Internation
al that "Hoffa will really have to
toe the line now."
The court ruling laid out ground
rules for the monitors' cleanup ac-

ominendations. the source said.
Hoffa told a meeting of Teams
ters Joint Council 73 in Newark.
N.J., Wednesday night that the
union would fight the decision
through further appeals.
"While we may not like it,"
Hoffa said, "it is a decision of a
! U.S. court and deserves respect
and dignity. But I assure you it
is only a matter of time before
our lawyers draw up the papers
and carry this on to another ap
peal." The appeal would be addressed
to the Supreme Court.
Hoffa's setback came Wednes
day at the hands of the U.S. Court
of Appeals. It rejected a Teams
ter bid to overturn the broad anti
corruption program laid down by
the monitors and approved by
Federal Judge F. Dickinson Letts.
The three-man appeals court
said the monitors have only ad
visory powers. But it ruled that
the 1,500,000 member Teamster
Union, the nation's largest, must
carry out the recommendations if
a federal court approves.
The decision also gave Letts
power to veto a special union
convention called by Hoffa to con
duct new elections and end the
monitors' supervision of Teamster
affairs.

Paper Company Introduces New
Simplified; Annual Report Form
By ELMER C. WALZER'
UPI Staff Writer
NEW YORK (UPIi-Scott Paper
Co. has introduced an innovation
in its annual report that maJS set
a pattern for industry in telling
its story to the many stockholders
of American corporations.
Scott simplified its regular re
port to implant its image in the
minds of college students. It was
part of its educational program,.
' Wall Street experts - who have
seen the report look on it as a
method of making clear the opera
tions of big business in a way tha'.
the novice stockholder can under
stand, t .
' The company took its regidar
report and inserted annotated
partial pages keyed to text and
figures. Each item is explained
simply so that it can be read
without reference to special book
lets 0 other texts.
Thomas B. Mc Cabe, pres dent
of the company, said tlje spe
cially prepared report,' beliWed
the fifst of its kind, was designed
"to provide students with an ex
planation of a corporate annual
report in everyday language in
order to promote a better under
standing of business operations
and their significance in IhcTjcn
cral 'economy."
Used By Colleges .
The report has beep sent .to
252 colleges throughout the
country without cost for use in
their business and economics
courses.
Special attention is devoted to
the consolidated financial state
ments, the shareholders' , inves
mcn, and other significant items.
"This- unique student edition has
been undertaken," Mc Cabe said,
"because we firmly believe that
it is the responsibility of industry
to provide all possible help in
telling the story of free competitive
enterprise and its vital role in our
economy."
Wall Streeters. scanning the re-
porU as annotated for .coltogc
students, noted Hot this type of
report would be espwafly valua
ers springing up all over: the
nation.
The sophisticated stockholders
could read the regular report
without bothering with the an
annotations while the novices in
finance and there are many at
present could profit from the ex
planations. Simplifications are broad and
in clear, concise language.
Clear Definitions
For example, the item depre
ciation and depletion is explained
as follows:
Scott has various kinds of
plants, equipment, and timber-
lands which become worn out or
Bull, Calf Sale
At Enterprise
Wallowa County Hereford As
sociation will hold a bull calf
sale at Enterprise next fall on
November 7, according to Elgin
Cornett, county agent. . o-
Sale committee' appointed by
President Vernon Hays includes
Gene Van Blokland, Walt Stein
and Bill Wolfe.
Clayton Tschirgi of Fruitland,
Idaho, will auction the calves af
ter they are judged by the gen
eral public who will be asked to
fill in cards for each class.
'Demand for Wallowa county
bull calves is increasing and a
sale 'should provide cattlemen an
opportunity to contact producers
cf quality cattle," Cornett stated.
For ranchers who like to buy
young bulls and grow them at
home, Wallowa county breeders
offer a new type sale but older
cattle are available from breeders.
"Purebred cattle is tine of
the fast growing industries in
Wallowa county. Natural advan
tage in weather and forage helps
tc produce top quality that will
satisfy," Cornett added.
The opossum is the only animal
in the United States that raises
its young similar to that of the
used up. . . frequently over
period of many years.
Annual amounts to measure
this using up 'depreciation for
plants and equipment; depletion
for timber i can be fairly esti
mated by experience and must be
includcdd as part of the cost of
doing business in every periodic
calculation of net income.
And for. net current assets:
"The difference between the to
tal of all current assets and the
total of all current liabilitfes.
This is how much Scot would
have loff if it collecttd its receiv
ables, liquidated all Its inventor
ies at cost, and paid its current
debts. , This difference is some
times called 'working capital
which every company has in
amounts dependent on the nature
and volume of its business and
the judgment of its management.'
Good Will Fund
Patents, trademarks, and good
will are carried in the balance
sheet ' at $1 with the annotated
explanation: "This $1 is a re
minder of the fact that all that
Scott has ever spent to promote
and improve its products has been
treated as expense when paid."
And so on each item is taken
up in sufficient detail to make it
perfectly clear in reading the re
port.
. The novice, stockholder doesn't
like to go around asking what
each , item in a report means.
Here he would have all the in
formation needed for a thorough
grasp of the report.
Further details- could be ob
tained from other sources for
those who wanted to pursue the
subject in detail.
This type of annual report
might well be circulated gener
ally. Once the report is laid out
the printing and binding wouldn't
raise the price much and it might
well mean that the report would
be read by a great many more
people.
It just might be the means of
nreventing the stockholder from
tossing his company's report in
the wastebaskct without even giv
