A recent letter from Elmer Reed to Miss Gretchen Young, concerning the Pioneers Home and some of the Second Division boys residing there may be of some interest. MT. Reed will be remembered as Q Nome resident of many years and is now en- ployed in the office department of the Sitka Home.

Hundred and fifty dress manu-
facturers, representing 10000
workers, have just written a new
set of rules for the popular price
dress game which the Federal
Trade Commission has consented
to referee. Anxious for even more
stringent policing than existing
law permits, makers of dresses
wholesaling at $4.75 and less went
beyond the law at their fair trade
conference with the commission.
They put unanimous stamp of ap.
proval on three voluntary self
regulations which condemn:
Observation-Disclosures who ac-
cept returned merchandise with
out sufficient reason. Two-Can-
collation. of contracts by sellers on
a rising market, by buyers on
falling market. Three-Failure to
describe fiber content and other
material specifications Of their
dresses.
Quality First
Quality is the top attraction for
grocery-going housewives. Survey
of 1,740 families in metropolitan
areas reveals that stores selling
products of best quality win 23,1
per cent of all shoppers on that
appeal. Price brings in 2l.1 per
cent. Convenience of the store at
tracts 20.3 per cent. Best service"
is the reason given by 13 per cent.
Delivery service is the feature
responsible for 81 per cent of
housewives trade, while 81 per
cent shopped at particular stores
because they can maintain
charge account. Remaining 10
per cent give reasons too diverse
to classify.
Mems Store Turnover
Most rapid turnover rates in
eight years-better in many divi-
sions than in 1929-are reported
for mems stores last year in Spe-
cial Department of Commerce re-
leases today. Stores doing more
than 100000 volume a year have
increased their turnover on suits
and overcoatS almost steadily from
203 times in 1929 to 3.15 times in
1896. Nearly the same turn and
advance prevailed in furnishings.
Shoes jumped from LAB in the
boom year to 2.62 last season.
InStalIment Trends
Pace of installment buying
dropped from 13 per cent of all
retail purchases in 1929 to 109
per cent in 1885, but substantial
gains made last year are continu-
ing at an accelerated rate. Pros
poets that record levels Of on
time" sales will fall this year are
hinted by Department of Com
merce reports.
More expensive items lead the
inStallment field. Three out of
five cars are bought on month
to-month financing plans, S. per
cent of household appliances and
radios, 48 per cent of furniture,
only 10 per cent Of department
store purchases.
Appliance Market
For every thousand electricity
consumers, the nations power
companies sold 16 refrigeratorS,
10 ranges, water heaters and
5 vacuum cleaners in 1886. Ac-
cording to reports from Depart
ment of Commerce, the satura-
ton point for any appliance is
far distant
Two-thirdS of electricity users
own vacuum cleaners, only II
per cent have electric ranges, 40
per cent have electric refrigera-
tors, So per cent have washing
machines, 6 per cent ironing
machines.
