Grocery Chains Expected
To Set Sales Records
Special Dispatch to The Star.


NEW YORK, June 15.-A new
peak for grocery chain store sales
this year is forecast in Poor's Indus
try and Investment Surveys. Profit
margins will average somewhat mar
rover than in 1899 because of the
lag in the rise of retail prices as
compared with wholesale food costs.
However, final results will show
gain because of the increase in vol
ume and improved efficiency.
Daily average dollar sales of the
grocery chain industry during the
first four months of this year were
1872 per cent above the correspond
ing 1889 level" states the forecast.
This was about the same rate of
gain as recorded during the highly
satisfactory September December
period of last year. Profit margins
were well maintained, the rise in
wholesale costs being offset by
commensurate increase in retail
prices.
Since March, wholesale food
food prices have been rising slight
ly faster than have retail food
prices. If this situation were to
continue for several months, seri-
Gus damage to the industry's op-
Grating margin would result. How
ever, 1t should not be long before
selling prices are adjusted to re-
fleet higher costs. Under the cir
cumstances, it now appears that
the industry as a whole faces
period of somewhat narrower profit
margins. This shrinkage will not
be damaging, however. In fact, it
should be completely offset by in
creased operating efficiency and the
expansion in volume transacted"
the survey concludes.
