WALZER United Press Financial Editor New York HP Wall Street is moving part of its operations to Main Street. Many new brokerage of- h c e s are springing up in s h o p p ing centers of sub urban areas. More of these are in the planning stage to meet a de- Elmer Waizer mand of in vestors who dislike trips to the adjoining cities to handle their business. An i index of these develop ments in the outlying areas is given by Teleregister 'Corp. which among its many electron ic devices supplies automatic Jem MM,. .HI Air Conditioned Clothes, Sidewalks, Stadiums Declared Among Coming Events Br ROBERT SHORTAL United Press Correspondent New York (W Some day man may wear air conditioned clothes, walk on air conditioned sidewalks and watch sports events in air conditioned sta diums. These are Just a few of the things that the crystal ball gas ers in the air conditioning indus try say are In the offing. By the year 2.000, industry spokesmen add, man may con trol his climate by the flick of a switch or the turn of a dial. J. W. Alsdorf, president of Mitchell Manufacturing Co. of Chicago, says "within the next 45 years, if research and en gineering continue at their pres ent pace, we may well have taken a step toward changing everybody's way of living. Big Business Now Air conditioning has Invaded homes, offices, churches, fac tories, theaters and stores to the tune of $3,500,000,000 a -year. Americans now travel in air conditioned trains, buses, . air- Machinsls Vole To o Recommend Strike Portland W About 300 AFL-CIO International Associa tion of Machinists representa tives voted to recommend to their unions a "strike date to close down shipyards" on the Vfest Coast at their Western States Conference here Tuesday. Harold J. Gibson, internation al vice president, said negotia tions have been held with the Pacific coast shipyard employers group. He said the machinists have been conferring with the employers group jointly with the Pacific Coast Metal Trades coun cil. The machinists voted down an offer of 15-cents-an-hour, plus five holidays. Gibson said. About 11.000 shipyard em ployees would be affected if the strike is called, Gibson said. Al though the machinists represent only 1000 of that total, other em ployees would honor picket lines, he declared. Leopold Planning Another Joliet, III. OB -Thrill killer Nathan Leopold took steps today to make another appeal for free dom before the State Parole board meets in October. Leopold, slaver of young Bob-1 by Franks in the "crime of the i century." aw his hopes for free dom by Christmas evaporate Tuesday on a technicaUty.', Gov. William G. Stratton, In a carefully worded statement, re jected Leopold's appeal because executive clemency would re move him from parole supervi- j sion. I But Stratton's statement ap- j peared to invite Leopold to peti- j tion a third time for a rehearing on his parole application. Because Leopold is ailing with ' diabetes and a heart condition, he does not believe he will live to the year 1968 when he will be eligible for parole. j Appeal planes and automobiles Walter A. Grant, vice presi dent of research and devlopment for Carrier Corp., notes that some experts believe one-third of the automobiles sold in 1961 will be air conditioned. Experiments now are under Alumni Group Plans Reunion in Ashland Ashland Southern Oregon College Alumni association members who attended the old Normal school before 1910 have scheduled a reunion of the Old Timers group Saturday and Sun day, Aug. 3-4, which has been planned to coincide with the Ashland Shakespearean Festi val. On Saturday, Aug. 3, regis tration is scheduled to start at 10 a.m.; luncheon, followed by a business meeting, introduc tions and a personal reminiscing session in Susanne Homes hall will start at 12:30 p.m. From 2 to 4:30 p.m., there will be a social hour, identifica tion of pictures and renewals of old friendships in Susanne Homes hall. At 6 p.m., the Old Timers' banquet will be held also in Susanne Homes hall and will be followed by attend ing a performance at the Shake spearean Festival for which spe cial group rates have been made available for all Old Timers who may wish to attend.

She is a resi dent of Ashland. Portland Burglaries Net Robbers Cash, Smokes Portland tP Four separate burglaries in the Portland area early Tuesday netted robbers about $1,500 cash and $2,000 worth of cigarettes, police re ported. way with air conditioning units for subway cars. The job of cool ing 200 people jammed together like sardines is no mean task. He explains that inflated plas-, tic canopies may be used to suspend conditioned air over baseball and football stadiums, a fore-runner of air conditioned streets and even air conditioned cities. "Air conditioned pigs and chickens will produce more pork and more eggs per pound of feed," he adds. Grant also visualizes the day when man will carry a little de vice in his hip pocket, deliver ing personal cooling at the flick of a switch. "As the air conditioned man of tomorrow walks around in the broiling sun, solar batteries will generate the power to cool the thermoelectric clothing he is wearing." Alsdorf says the only danger in making predictions such as these "is that, more often than not, they are too conservative." Loyal Forces Kill Three Cuban Rebels Santiago, Cuba W Loyal forces have killed three rebels in eastern Cuba in the past 24 hours, official sources said to day. Police and troops shot down two men identified as rebels in the streets of Santiago Tuesday. A third man was killed by troops in the nearby Mistress mountains. At the same time, it was an nounced that an unspecified number of Cuban marines land ed Tuesday in Manzanillo to re inforce police and troops comb ing the Mistress mountains, prin cipal hideout of the rebels. electric stock quotation boards. The firm reports a new trend is taking place in the financial community the accelerated movement of brokerage houses to shopping centers and sub urban areas and the expansion of facilities for the investing public in outlying communities. This trend is especially heavy in the New York City suburban area, the area around Detroit, and on the West Coast. The shopping center provides parking facilities not available in the cities and this is seen as a big factor in the change. Also husbands and wives in a retired status find it convenient to handle investments with out making a trip to the city, teleregister points out. ( Another factor is the increased interest of housewives in the market. Not only do these ladies invest in stocks, but it's said they are prone occasionally to take a fling in commodities. Local businessmen with in creasing operations resulting the move from urban to sub urban areas are reported de manding investment facilities near their establishments. Offices Benefit Teleregister notes also that brokerage offices in shopping centers benefit from the prox imity of large corporations and manufacturing plants, as these plants move away from the metropolitan area. The stock quotation board firm finds the sudden demand for local brokerage offices com ing long after department stores, banks, theaters, insurance com panies and chain stores have shifted with the population, and wonders why 'he development didn't take place sooner. Wali Streetcrs answer that one by noting only a minor public interest in the market. They add. however, that the cur rent moves may reflect a grow belief that the public will get into action one rf these days. Hoffa Virtually Assured Of Teamster Presidency Chicago (W James R. Hof fa, crown prince to teamsters President Dave Bck, was virtu ally assured of th.? union presi dency today with t.(e withdrawal of his only rival ir? the Septem ber elections for the post. John T.
