purchases Of new cars. big and little
department store products and even
washing machines seem to be running
higher now than at any time during
the last three years.
This unexpected feature of the
March-April business trend b disclosed
partially in the monthly business
chart. The chart shows that, during
the last 60 days, department store
sales have been about 81 per cent OF
normal for this season Of the year

Such sales haze not been 80 near
to normal since the month Of jan
uary, 1881, tDhen tOe started on the

If you dig into the subject, you will
find that the freer spending tendency
is not confined to the department
stores. The way auto sales are holding
up Is considered semi-miraculous in
side the industry. Production in the
United States and Canada during
March was around 452,000 cars. April
about 100000 cars and the May plans

Senator Couzens, Republican, of

cause they make no comparison with

also was announced. He also is vice

These cars are being sold. Sales for
the first quarter were actually 64 per
cent higher than last year. One of the
largest companies had the best first
quarter in five years and went into
the second quarter with excess orders
amounting to 74,500. OF course, only
the cars selling for less than $1,000
are getting this big play.
Mail Order Sales Gain.
The broader scope of fresh buying
activity is probably best shown by a
survey recently concluded in the
Bureau Of Foreign and Domestic Com
merce. 1t investigated mail order and
chain store sales in the small towns
and discovered that, for the first quar-
ter. these sales were Is per cent larger
than a year ago.
The survey indicated the best gains
were in the South. The improvement
was computed by geographical sections,
as follows: East up IL per cent over
first quarter last year, South up Fl
per cent, Middle West up IS per cent
and Far West up IL per cent.
This means that the small-town
folks and farmers are buying more,
just as the city people are. It also
proves the trend is national and covers
almost the entire field Of light goods.
Aside from this factor, the gen.
eral business figures are nothing to
bra0 about. Industrial production
is running slightly behind its usual
seasonal course. Factory employ
ment and pay rolls haze improved
only slightly. Car loadings are he
hind; prices are at netD high, and
building is far in the rear.
You can see the relationship of these
lndices in the following chart, in which
each figure represents the percentage
of normal Q923-25 averages) at the
periods specified:
Textile Period Slack.
The main reason industrial produc-
tion has been slipping little Is that
the textile industry has entered upon
q slack period. Coal production also
is of, due to the fact that the strike
threat failed to materialize. Consum-
ers are using the stocks they stored
up in expectation of strike.
Tobacco production set a new March
record, which Is another proof that
the light. fast-selling goods are mov-
ing at an accelerated rate. People
are buying more cigarettes.
But steel is another story. This
belltUether OF the durable goods in
dustries hit a neD lou during the
first week in April. Operations then
1oere about As per cent OF capacity.
Since then steel has pulled up to
about At, but no one is very en-.
thusidstic ouer the prospects.
The comparison between tobacco
and steel shows the balanced business
picture clearly. The on-durables are
getting better while the durables are
getting headaches.
A false impression has gone around
the country that the new high price
level is a good business factor. The
truth is it does not mean thing. The
price level Is higher because farm and
food prices are under the unnatural
influence of the drought. All other
prices are just about the same.
For instance, take the week ending
April 20. The general price level
crossed 80 for the first time in three
years. The exact figure for that week
was 803.
But when you break down that
figure, you will find that food prices
were up to 85.3 and farm prices up to
81.8. All other prices were behind at
77.3, and failed to show any increase
during March or April. .
