Particularly 10 the phase OF the
question. which now develops re-

taller and wholesaler by the banks
calling in their paper.
As we all know BY now, prices
are supposed TO be on the decline on
account OF the dealers needing mon.
ey to carry their credit with the
banks. They. the dealers, then APP
psrently slash prices and get the
public's money. Then all is well, for
the dealer and also the public has
gained some OF the much-needed
goods that II has been unable here
