lice Station in Patrol Wagon.

BRITISH PEOPLE FOR
LOWER PRICES TOO
Cabled Reports of the Slump In the
United States Excite Hope
Across the Water

London, MAY 2l.-Cabled reports Of
slump in prices in the United States
are featured in newspapers here and
are being read with interest. as they
excite the hope that conditions across
the Atlantic may be reflected in Great
Britain. Some writers on economics,
however, hold out little hope that this
will be the result, maintaining the new
conditions in America are more likely
TO have contrary effect here, but hope
persists and is supported by some rath-
er pointed indications that there was
decline in trading during April com
pared with March. This decline, al
though small is regarded as significant
because it was the first for more than
year.
Unofficial statistics show the people
are spending less while British banks
are assuming more careful attitude.
Manchester reports an absence of new
textile business from abroad and re-
tailers in many trades are said to have
found they are overstocked. There has
been a downward trend in some food
prices here recently, and, although
these are, for the most part, seasonal,
the public Is building some hope on
the circumstances.
Managers of large stores in London
admit the sale of luxuries is declining
and think recent extravaganza is be-
coming questionable but they express
doubt whether general decline in prices
has begun, or is likely to begin soon.
The chairman of the textile section of
the London chamber of commerce de-
clared to-day he regarded the American
decline in prices only a passing phase
of the situation and that he did not
expect much alteration here.
