clothing costs. reaching from the
Mississippi Valley to the Pacific
Coast, was reported yesterday. Dis
patches from q cities in that term
tory told Of price reduction in these
necessities ranging from Is per cent
to minus profit

demand from the public for lower
prices"
These current reductions, he said.

undoubtedly was good, In that it sug-
gested that merchants were gong
ahead more cautiously. Sales are
being held under various names.

ing store announced a "no profits"
sale, declaring il would back its
promise at the end of the sale by
letting the fair price commissioner
