Interest Focused
On Store and Rail
Shares Under Code

BY the Associated Press
NEW YORK. August 12-With inter-
est seemingly due to be focused on dis
tribution and consumption over the
next few months. inasmuch as the pur-
pose of the N. r. A. is to increase con-
sumption to a point that will support
larger business volume and higher
wages, there is growing disposition
to search out shares that will stand to
reflect improvement in those lines.
Shares of the retail stores and the
railroads are regarded by some as fall
ing in that category.
In connection with the merchandising
shares. the point is made that some
department stores do as much as 40
per cent of their annual gross turnover
in the last quarter.
