BY the Associated Press.
OTTAWA, June 3.-Decline In busi-
ness in Canada during the past few
months was due largely to the infiu-
ence of the United States and Cana
dian thoughts and activities, declared
F. G. Brown of Vancouver in his presi-
dental address at the opening lunch
con Of the Canadian Manufacturers
Associations annual meeting here.
While admitting Canada was affect
ed by those international movements
which had caused the upward trend
OF world recovery to hesitate, pause
and fall backward, Mr.. Brown saw in
what had been happening in the
United States the chief cause of the
recent decline of activity in Canada.
AS a matter of fact" said Mr.
Brown, there is nothing in the basic
situation in this country to account
for the extent of the moderate re-
cession in business that we have suf-
-fered. The fear of what might happen
in Canada. following what has hap
pened in the United States, has been
the most depressing factor in our
situation. It is respectfully submit
ted that we Canadians should shos
more independence In our THINKING
and more ability to appraise our own
conditions and to act boldly and conf
IDENTIFY in regard to our own affairs"

SpeclaI Dlspatch to The Star.
NEW YORK, June 3,-Dollar VOL
ume Of grocery chain sales has been
holding close to 1887 levels so far this
year, according to Poor's Industry and
Investment Surveys. Barring an un-
expected reversal of the present whole
sale-retail price relationship. 1888
earnings should be up considerably
from the level attained in the second
half of last year.
The improvement in retail outlets
which began during the depression of
the early 30s, and gathered momentum
under the pressure of the rising burden
OF discriminatory tax legislation. con-
tinues apace," states the analysis.
Large chains are closing down
smaller units virtually by the hun
dreds. There are being replaced by a
few score self service super-markets
which are operatable at but fraction
of the former costs. The savings arise
primarily from lower rentals, reduced
pay roll, and smaller anti-chain tax
bill.
THE public is being attracted to
these large markets by slightly low
er price level than formerly prevailed
in the more conveniently located small
units. Thus, little volume is lost.
Great Atlantic g. Pacific Tea Co, for
example, reduced its chain an esti-
mated 8 per cent last year, but sales
were off only per cent While the
movement has, until recently been con-
fined to tax problem States, it is
spreading rapidly. The typical grocery
chain of tomorrow may well consist Of
a relatively small number of large
stores with average annual sales closer
to million dollars on each, as against
a larger number of small stores with
average annual sales of a hundred
thousand"
