Gold at $40 an ounce is not worth so

NEW YORK, December 9.-The pre-

orally better than expected, even in

today in its market summary. Wintry
weather has started needed purchasing
in various lines and the Christmas sell
ing of toys and practical gifts of utility

Many stores report early holiday volume
better than last year, largely because
this season, as never before, dealers
have reduced their retail prices In line
with today's record low cost.
In staple lines, articles of the type
which are quickly used up by the pur-
chaser, or which have relatively short
life in service, continue to show greater
activity than do goods of more durable

wholesale trade from most sections OF
the country reveal that hardware sales
