WALZER UPI Financial Editor New York -'IW- Hawaii has paid its bills over the years and built up .such an excellent credit ratios that mainland business m e n have come to take our 50th state for granted. They study the poorer credit risks, i nvest i gate the i r future bick history. They know all about the slow payers and nothing about the top credit risks. Hence when they want to enter fields away from home, they often go to the sections they studied and ignore little Hawaii which hasn't talked loudly enough to bring in much new business. United States Investor in its current issue delves into this situation and observes that business men "have found it unnecessary to keep abreast of conditions in Hawaii as in a foreign country because of her prime credit position." Turn To Other Lands The study points out that ironically while only a rela tively few U.S. corporations are investing in Hawaii, they are starting factories in Puerto Rico at a ten-to-one ratio and in Argentina, Brazil, France, India, and numerous other foreign countries three times as rapidly as in the 50th state. "It is unfortunate but ac knowledged fact," says the ar ticle, "that many large and small corporations in the U.S., particularly in the East, have a much more exhaustive back ground on the economic and industrial conditions in a for eign nation such as Mexico, Cuba, Venezuela, or even South Africa, than they do re garding our sister state of Ha waii." Follows Example United State Investor sug gests that Hawaii follow the example of Australia which in 1956 decided "to go after it." Australia's campaign in five years brought in 650 American companies which either negotiated licensee agreements or made direct in vestment in the commonwealth. More business and financial news Is coming out of Hawaii at the present time. Standard & Poor's devoted considerable space to it in the firm's week ly publication. "The Outlook." The Tax Foundation gives Hawaii a gold star in its "Monthly Tax Features'' pub lication. In its first year as a state, Hawaii has set a good example for its older sisters by reducing taxes, says the foundation. The tax cut is ef fective next January 1 and it amounts to 7 per cent. Capital Via Tourism Standard & Poor's found mainland capital flowing to the islands at an increasing rate, notably in tourism which it holds soon will rise above sugar and pineapples as the island's source of income. While enthusiasm for this romantic setting is fully justi tied," says Standard, "it must be tempered by realization that our 50th state is relative ly a small part of the nation, and that opportunities for fa vorable investment by the av erage investor are limited." Hawaii has a population of more than 600.000, about the same as the slate of Idaho Personal income Is estimated at $2,000 a person About one-third of the state's income is derived from federal expenditures for de fense purposes, reflecting the continuing importance of mil itary installations. "Building activity has in creased rapidly," says Stand ard & Poor's, "and this indus try is now a leading factor in the economy, along with retail and wholesale trade, sugar, pineapples, the tourist indus try, light manufacturing, and finance. Construction of accommo dations for vacationists and new residents is booming, and probably will continue to ab sorb important amounts of capital for some time. "Sheraton Hotel and Kaiser interests have major projects under way. "Assuming continued pros perity on the mainland, the growing popularity of Hawaii as a vacationland will be re flected in various facets of the economy, including auxil iary services, such as public utilities, transportation (in cluding local airlines) and banking. 'The development of Ha waii is in many respects sim ilar to that of Florida in re cent years. "Manufacturing looking at it from the earth. The earth's atmosphere blocks out all but a small range of solar radiation. "It is as it only one octave of a piano keyboard could be heard." the academy said. "Space vehicles will make it possible to hear, so to speak, the entire keyboard." The sun by and large is a ulation, but in the absence of I major raw material and power j resources, there is little likeli- hood of any large scale indus activi t ie si trial development such as is are expected to grow at least familiar as fast as the permanent pop- states. in many mainland presidential nomination, the Oregon Journal's Washington, D.C. bureau said Monday. Stevenson was answering reports attributed to follow ers in Oregon of Sen. John Kennedy (D-Mass.) that he would endorse Kennedy. "I have not changed my posi tion about endorsing anyone for the Democratic nomina tion. If I do, I'll let everyone know. They won't have to de pend upon rumor.'' the news paper quoted Stevenson as saying.
