TRADE ADVANCES
ON BROAD FRONT
Retail Sales Soar to 22 Per
Cent Above Same 1886
Period in Week.
By the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
NEW YORK, September 24.-Most
divisions of trade displayed a more
aggressive stride this week, with
quickening retail distribution the out
standing feature, Dun d Bradstreet
said today in the weekly review of
business.
Retail sales for the country as a
whole were estimated at from 3 to
7 per cent ahead Of the preceding
week and from to % per cent better
than for the comparable 1886 period.
''As strength of consumer purchas-
ing power was revealed by the intensi-
fed interest in wide range of sea-
sonal goods" the agency said, buyers
in wholesale markets covered with
less caution the balance of their Fall
requirements.
Although makers of automobiles
and steel were at the seasons low, and
curtailment proceeded at many textile
mills, operations in other industrial
divisions maintained or heightened
the advantage over those of year
ago."
The review noted as an indication
Of widening consumer demand that
the interest of shoppers extended to
virtually all retail store offerings this
week, whereas in the preceding week
there was a marked tendency to con-
centrate on wearing apparel
THE purchasing trend continued
toward the higher priced, better quail
ity merchandise" the review said,
adding that moderate mark-ups were
taken as matter of course"
Percentage increases over year
ago in the major cities in New Eng
land ranged from to 12 Eastern
States, 10 to 20; Middle Western, 10
to 20; Northwest, IA to 90; Southern,
IL to 18; Southwest. Is to 25, and
Pacific Coast, 10 to 18.
On the wholesale front, reports to
the agency indicated purchasing power
in the rural sections had been we'll
sustained at recent levels.
Business sent in by road salesmen, -
the review said, generally surpassed
the volume in urban centers."

Gross Currents Still at Work,

special DlSpatch - Inc star.
NEW YORK, September 24.-In
its weekly summary of the general
business situation the Standard Sta
tistics Co. of New York currently
comments as follows:
Numerous currents are still
at work in the business situation, but
in the main the trend of activity is
still moderately downward. A num-
ber of important industries are cur
failing production. as backlogs built
up earlier in the year are being
steadily reduced and new orders have
failed to come up to earlier expecta-
tions. This is particularly true in
such industries as textiles, steel, cop
per and brass products and shoes.
ut is difficult to forecast to what
extent the sharp decline in security
prices will affect industrial volumes
over the remainder of the year. The
security market recession has natu-
rally had SOLDERING effect on senti-
ment, and the slackness in new order
ing is a clear indication that man.
agements are following conservative
policies.
aggregate manufacturing activity
is still holding we'll above last years
levels, but, with the exception of the
important automobile industry. none
of the major lines is likely to show
much, if any, improvement from pres
ent levels over the next several
months. The trend of textile activity
is still downward; mill schedules are
being reduced, and. because of an
uncertain price structure. new buying
continues light. Building activity Is
continuing to lag. and the seasonal
trend will be downward until the
early months of next year."
