here report an increase of 20 per cent
thus far this year over last year in vol

cash sales are increased only about per
cent. During the last three months the
increase in employment in Springfield
has brought increased sales from custom

Falls merchants get surprisingly large
trade from these places in addition to
nearer towns They state without excep-
ton that collections are much improved.
The merchants also report a much bet
