Colder Weather
Proves Boon TO
Retailer

Stimulated by the sudden shift
to clearer and colder weather
throughout the country, retail
trade picked up sharply during
the week, according to Dun and
Bradstreet, Inc. The filling of
deferred November requirements
was a potent factor in the pickup.
Stores in the larger cities as
well as those in smaller COM
munitieS were jammed i'm
mediately following the Thanks
giving holiday with shoppers ap-
parently imbued with the gayest
holiday spirit in years, the re-
view declared. Early estimates
that sales for the month would
exceOl 1888 by 10 to Is per cent
are being revised upward and the
present trend indicates that the
physical volume of Christmas
trade will be the largest since
1929 with the dollar totals ap-
preaching 1880 proportions.
Although cash sales are more
strongly in evidence the number
of charge accounts during the
past several months has been
nearly double the total of a year
ago.

COTTON STEADY

NEW YORK, Dec. 8 0.N.S).
The cotton market ruled generally

The Department of Agriculture,
in it's estimate of 9,731 900 bales,
was $1,000 bales above the report
of a month ago, largely conform
ing with previous private estt-
mates of cotton houses. A year
ago, the crop estimated has been
13,047 900 bales, and two years
ago the crop was placed at 49,
001 900 bales. An average yield Of
1892 pounds an acre.
Final quotations were up l to 2

Chevrolet Sales
Best Since 1926

November retail sales in the
United States by Chevrolet Motor
Company, totaling 5O,819 units,
were the largest for that month
since 1926 and were exceeded by
only one November in the COM
pany's history.
Last month marks the first
time since 1926 that sales for
the month have exceeded October
sales, the company said.
November sales more than
doubled the total in the same
month last year and exceeded
October sales, the company said.
November sales more than
doubled the total in the same
month last year and exceeded
the total of 47,8O3 units sold in
November, 1929, which was the
biggest year for the company and
for the industry in general.

2. It may be productive of much
revenue, if it is levied on goods
which are sold in large volume.
3. Being paid when consumers
buy goods it falls in relatively
small amounts spread over the
year, and thus may pluck the
feathers without causing much
Squawk.
Adoption Of this tax is,
think, an admission that the
total of our taxes is too high.
(YOu may be sure that the
politicians would not resort to
such a tax on top of the others
unless they we're in desperate
straits for money!
The moral of the whole story
Is that it is time for our Govern
ment, city. State and Federal, to
quit spending so much money.
This sales tax episode should
bring home to the people the
fact that "some one has to pay"
How foolish it is to give" peo-
pie relief, and then turn around
and take it away from them in
taxes!
Does that stimulate business?
The net result is that lot Of need
less and waSteful jobs are made
for Government bureaucratS.
Iventure to say that the Federal
Government is wasting at least
1000 million dollars a year in it's
Experiments" and probably the
local governments are somewhat
In proportion.
Maybe the new taxes, through
Vheir effect on their cost of living,
will at last waken the New York
city masses to the fact that new
deals have to be paid for, and
that when we try to squander our
way to prosperity we run into the
tax collector.
incidentally, this local sales
tax is a poor expedient, since it
tends to drive buyers to other
localities. Thus New Workers
and commuters will doubtless
buy more in Newark and New
Rochelle, to say nothing Of the
mail-order houses.
There is something to be said
for a general sales tax as a sup
plement to a system Of income
taxes which has become extremely
complicated and burdensome to
certain classes. But to try to
build a wall around a town and
make it's citizens pay more than
the citizens of other towns will not
work.
