COLLIER’S AND COMPANION WILL,
STOP PUBLISHING IN JANUARY
NEW YORK, dt—Collier’s and
the Woman’s Home Companion—
familiar magazines in millions of
homes for more than half a cen
tury—will disappear from the
American scene next month.
A company official indicated
that a seeming paradox—rising
circulations offset by increasing
publishing costs and dwindling
advertising revenues—signaled the
end of the two magazine giants.
The 15-member board of direc
tors of Crowell-Collier Publishing
Co. wrote the death notice Friday
night by voting to discontinue
publication. Their action came at
the end of a six-hour, tension
packed meeting.
The prospect of continuing a
losing venture weighed heavily
in the decision.
Paul C. Smith, company presi
dent and board chairman, said
the two magazines, with ^ com
bined circulation of nearly $8Vi
million, lost more than $7,500,000
this year.
Smith announced the board’s
decision “with deepest regret.”
Affected were some 2,600 em
ployes. More than half of them
faced a jobless future in less than
a month. *
A bleak band of employes kept
a vigil at their offices during the
board meeting—hoping against
hope. They left when the final
Russia Accuses
Three U.S. B-57s
Of Trespassing
By HAROLD MILKS
MOSCOW, W!—The Soviet gov
ernment has accused three U.S.
B-57 jet bombers of trespassing
near the big Pacific port of Vlad
ivostok last week on a flight that
was “clearly a reconnaissance at
tempt.”
A Soviet note sent the State
Department via the U.S. embassy
in Moscow demanded punishment
for those responsible and that
steps be taken to “prevent future
violations of the state frontiers of
the U.S.S.R. by American air
craft.”
AU.S. Air Force officials in Ja
pan, where B-57s have been sta
tioned since last January, said
they had no knowledge of any
such flight as the Russians ‘de
scribed. The State Department
withheld comment until the note
could be studied further.)
“Fine weather and gdod visi
bility prevailed in the area, pre
cluding the possibility that the
pilots lost their way,” the note
declared.
On Sept. 4, 1954, two Soviet
Mig fighters shot down a U.S.
Navy patrol plane off Vladivos
tok, and the Soviets charged the
plane had flown over Siberia.
Nine of the 10 men aboard were
rescued. The U.S. denied the Rus
sian charge of trespassing and
said the plane was over interna
tional waters.
Last July, the Russians charged
American planes had flown three
times over western Russia and
that some of the flights had pene
trated about 200 miles over So
viet territory. Tlje U.S. has also
denied those charges.
1 word came.
The board’s “primary duty” to
! the stockholders to “protect their
! investment" resulted in the de
cision, said Smith. It withdrew
Crowel-Collier from the magazine
field, leaving the firm with :ts
profit-making business of book
publishing.
Collier’s, a bi-monthly general
magazine with an announced cir
culation of 4,179,700, will cease
with the Jan. 4 issue. The Com
panion, with a circulation of 4,
228,800, ends publication with the
January number.
Gardner Cowles, president of
Cowles Magazine, Inc., simulta
neously announced an agreement
under which Look magazine will
take over the unexpired sub
scriptions of Colliers. Arrange
ments are being made to divert
the Companion’s subscriptions to
other publishers.
