MARKS AT NEW LOW
RECORD IN NEW YORK
[By Associated Press.l

NEW YORK. July ca new low
record for all time was made by Ger
man marks here today Mt 15 1-2 cents
hundred with feeble rally Mt the
close.
The utter collapse OF this remit
lance was attended by reports that
dealers in foreign exchange probably
would decline to transact further
business in this currency on the
ground that it was practically value
less. Today's slump was attributed
TO further selling by German iinan-
cial and commercial interests in
London and at this center. Political
and economic conditions In Germany
accelerated today's decentralization.
All continental exchanges were
lower and the British rates with de-
mand sterling at 4.+S 3-S was at it's
low OF the week.

80 Club" has been ORGANIZED

chants. who have determined TO cx-
tend no credit beyond thirty days
The movement is SO popular that. al
though it started with Ave merchants
"A month ago. the 40 Club" now has
100 leading retailers of Omaha in II.
This does not mean that they are
not seeking credit customers. Many
stores in Omaha are making a cam
paign for new credit accounts. but
they insist that they be thirty-day
accounts. and not sixty day or nine
ty-day accounts. They are opening
more accounts than ever. but they
must be good ones.
The go Club" points out also thai
in a case where customer may make
Il definite agreement with the credit
manager to take two or three months
TO pay bill, at the rate of stipu-
lated sum per month. that agree
mcnt puts that case outside the
thirty" rule, and that customer who
keeps his agreement regularly during
the two or three months stipulated
is considered just as good risk as
a thirtyd day man.

Inc attention of business mon
throughout the country Is being
called to novelty In retail business
methods which was originated in
richmond by II. Carl Boschen, prcsi-
dent of tho Boschen stores and form
er president OF tho Retail Merchants
Association of Richmond This
unique method has aroused much
comment throughout tho country and
mo change In conditions which Is
causing retailers to flock to n cash
instead OF credit system has en-
phasizcd the need of such n medium
IN nearly every business
The period Immediately followin
the war, forced upon US tho decision
and necessity of changing retail bust
ness methods to accord with ne,y
conditions" Mr.. Boschen said last
night In discussing his system. "Bus
II anyone at that time. even though
he was looking for new ideas, had
told US the story OF the shopping
check we would have thought him
crazy. Now tho shopping check
under the name of "1Inshall." Is sue
cessfuily operated under scventy-onc
contracts. representing every line OF
endcavor >icre bills receivable are n
vital consideration.
"On June !. 1920 patrons OF tia
Boschcn store here were sent a ci-cu-
lar letter in which candid facts wcro
brought to their attention. The craze
for credit was shown to be one o.
the chief items OF the financial UNI
rest sweeping over the world. Sixty
nve per cent. OF the patrons of this
store were making their purchases on
the credit basis. so il may be readily
seen that startling facts had TO be
brought out In u truthful manner rs
make the right impression. Fearing
that some OF tho patrons would dc
sire to mako purchase, without
funds. I ordered 100 shopping checks
from "A printer. The idea was TO use
them 10 save embarrassment and to
make the sale by Sc curing protection
for its value through signatures OF
the customers.
Although no merchant had ever
realized he could secure the ready
cooperation OF his customers was
greatly surprised when forty-oue
transactions Of this kind took place
on the opening day or the cash basis.
Instead OF a decrease In trade. tho
shopping check has presented the op-
por;un!ty to appeal TO thos. who pre-
fer to purchase through the delayed
ayment plan as we'll as those wnu
insist upon buying for cash.
The average date OF payment OF
a bin In America IS ninety-one days,
therefore. we are required to carry
