Trading Spotty

Retail sales here this week were
spotty compared with the previous
seven-day period, says Dun &
Bradstreet. Inc. Some showed
slight increases while others
dropped below the level of a week
ago
The spottiness IS apparently the
result Of strikes and a between
seasons hull. However. merchants
are expecting sharp increase in
demand for Summer apparel by
the end OF the month.
Compared to the same week last
year increases Of from S 10 10 per
cent are reported. While this mar
gin of gain is lower than that re-
corded for the first four months
store owners anticipate that the
margin will have increased by the
end of the month.
Wholesalers report slight sales
increases over the previous week
and gains for the month To date OF
close TO 70 per cent. Collections
continue several points above last
year, but deliveries are slower.

Secondary Cause

And yet astigmatic social
scientists during the depression
drew pessimistic conclusions
from the slowing up of our
rate of population growth. Vol
untary limitation of domestic
families was a secondary cause
of the statistical change. The
resultant economic pessimism
was unwarranted, because in
the future we can get our eX-
pansion in the making and ex-
change of goods by stepping up
the living standard of our own
people. Such a policy of open
ing up new markets within our
own gates will link sound bust
ness with good sociology.
If changing economic needs
should al any time require
more rapid population growth,
we can be stampeded with new
immigrants whenever We should
elect TO let down the bars. For
never before in history has the
desire to migrate TO America
been stronger. Economic ex-
haustieH persecution and the

to put economic and spiritual
price tags on the asset value
