Some Of the smart boys are
looking into railroad preferred

ment considering the strength OF
the senior issues Of industrial and

the fact that the preferred stocks

SPRING TRADING
CONTINUES
HEAVY
BY international News Service

Retail sales in nearly all lines
this month are running from 20
to 20 per cent over a year ago
and are the best for any spring
season in three years, Dun &
Bradstreet, Inc, reported in an
optimistic weekend survey which
continues:
"The maintenance Of steady
consumer demand thus far this
year has had an increasingly
stabiIizing effect on all basic
trades and merchants are tax.
ing the most cheerful attitude
regarding the future that has
been in evidence in three or
four years"
Pay Rolls Advance
Further gains in employment
and pay rolls, which are aC the
highest levels in several years,
were hailed as a sign Of better
times along with gains in bank
clearings, postal receipts, pay
mentS Of delinquent taxes and
earnings statements.
The ability of retail trade to
hold far above a year ago despite
the unfavorable weather this
month, it was stated, revealed
that the unprecedented Easter
buying splurge was not a "flash
in the PAN" With real sp ri n 6
temperature yet to appear, the
peak of the seasons buying was
deferred to late May or early
June, and the summer buying is
expected to take up much Of the
normal lag in August.
Some manufacturers are com
planning of narrower profits due
to increased operating costs, the
review found. The Dun and
Bradstreet business activity ba-
rometer dropped from 66.3 to 65.7
last week but this was attributed
entirely to the greater than sea-
Sonal decline in car loadings.
Better Grade Sales Up
Better grades of merchandise
were found to be gaining grad
ually, offering better prospects for
profits. The review said that re.
cent automobile price increases 50
far have not brought any slowing
down in retail sales, with gains
noted particularly in country dis
tricts. More activity was noted in
all wholesale markets.
