1 LA 2 How To Succeed In Business By Trying ffM rag Today 5 is Aug. 17, 1974 3C hi miimp 1 1 i i ii i MHh Bin By GAY PAULEY United Press International NEW YORK Spanish-born Adela Holzer started her U.S. career as a typist. Then with a bank loan of $3,000 and some of her savings, she went into business and parlayed herself into being boss of a multimillion dollar empire of diversified holdings. All this she did in 20 years.

The beautiful Mrs. Holzer, tawny-haired and suntanned, now is 40. She has two sons, 20 and 14. Her secrets to be shared with others as a start? "Be prompt in paying your bills," she said. "Be careful to whom you're selling so they too pay promptly.

Work hard. I never stop, never stop thinking." She had thoughts, too, on how women can advance to executive suites in the years ahead "the rest of the 1970s and the '80s will be the era of womanpower. Women no longer will be segregated into second class citizens." Said Mrs. Holzer, "to arrive in management, you start like a man does. Background yourself with a good education (she has a doctorate in philosophy).

Don't be afraid to go over some subordinate's head. Go to the top with your ideas, even if you have to wait until 5:30 when most everyone else has left the office." Mrs. Holzer, whose financial interests range from real estate to the Broadway theater, also is thinking of the woman who's in her 40s and 50s and wants to go to work for the first time. "I'm considering starting a school for housewives who have no general knowledge of business operation," she said. "Some women can't even read a business report." Mrs.

Holzer was born in Madrid of a well-to-do, but strict, family. Married at 17, she came to the United States in 1954 to escape a union that wasn't working out. With her knowledge of languages (she's fluent in several), a job at the United Nations as interpreter was a natural. She also went to work at the same time as a typist at an advertising agency. "Father let me use his apartment in New York," she said.

"So I saved from both my salaries. I started buying houses on Second and Third Avenues." Then she would resell as both avenues, Third especially, began to develop with high rise apartment and office buildings. Currently, real estate holdings are in Spain, England, and the United States. These include a townhouse on Manhattan's fashionable upper east side, and residences in north New Jersey, Madrid and London. When she remarried, to Walter Dushin, an eminent scientist then working for the Pentagon in Houston, she went into another investment area.

With a Houston bank loan of that $3,000 and her savings of about $17,000, she started a hospital supply business. Dushin died in 1962 and she returned to New York, going into the import-export business, working in the main with South American countries. At the same time, she went to work at Columbia University teaching Spanish and Spanish literature. "I figured if the other business failed, I needed a steady job," she said. "Being a woman in business has advantages and disadvantages," she said.

"You can play many situations like you're dumb, as long as you're not." 1 NO HARMFUL CHf MICAIS NO EXCESS LIQUID OH FLOOR CARPEL DRIES EAST MILDtW HKtVtNIIVE TEXTURE PROLONGS CARPEL LIFE Spanish-born Adda Holzer started as a typist and became boss of a multi-million dollar business empire.

They ing a disagreement, and want DEAR ABBY: An anthropologist wrote to you recently, advocating the rearing of chimpanzees instead of children. He stated that one can always sell a mature, healthy chimp to a zoo when it became hard to handle (and at twice what he paid for it), and facetiously went on to ask, what zoo would take a human? Herein lies a serious misconception. The zoos do not want these former pets! Lately, since exotic pets have become fashion able, zoos around the country have been swamped with "offers" to take chimps, ocelots, cheetahs, birds, fowl, lizards, etc. off the hands of those who had no idea what they were getting into when they purchased the young creatures. These cast-offs are usually refused because former pets make poor zoo specimens.

Then, too, zoos have better sources of supply their own breeding programs, for example.

So the buyer of such a pet must acknowledge the fact that he'll have to keep it for his lifetime. It's either that, or return it to a wild state in which it can no longer survive, try to find a shelter that'll accept it, or the easy way out have it destroyed. Abby, please appeal to self-styled animal lovers, or status seekers, to resist buying a wild animal unless they are still plenty available at Phalaenopsis seedlings, 2.50 or 6 for $12.00 pect the zoo to bail them out after the novelty has worn off.

OPEN 95 7 DAYS A WEEK LANTANA, FLORIDA PHONE (305) 582-2597 My wife telephoned a local dinner and dance spot and reserved a table for two near the orchestra on a Saturday night. This was confirmed, but when she and her friend (a widow) showed up, they were told there were no tables available in the room with the orchestra. She argued that she had reservations, but to no avail. They were seated in another room, away from the orchestra and dance floor.

When my wife asked me why I thought she and her friend were treated this way, I said: "If two unescorted women dine together it could give the place a bad name, because the women could be (1) Lesbians, or (2) looking to pick up men." Do you think I was wrong in my evaluation? The Male View DEAR MALE: Your "evaluation" is not necessarily correct.
