CHICAGO, Aug. 11.-Leading
beneficiary of the tremendous
sales gains this year of Sears
Roebuck and Company will be
the United States Treasury.
Stockholders who have watched
the monthly sales comparison S
with last year rise TO a Al $40
per cent increase for July, will
apparently have only a relatively
small advance in earnings to show
for the record volume of their
company. II appears doubtful al
this time that the years dividend
payments will exceed the S4.25 a
share paid in the year ended Jan.
81. 1941.
For the "a weeks ended July is,

SOME HARD HIT

Current pinches appear worse
In some regions than in others.
Numerous consumers at Pacific
Coast points where defense re-
uuirements are large complain of
inability TO get steel Similar
complaints are heard from con-
sumers located in southern Wis
consin. Contributory factor is
that warehouse distributors who
usually supply these consumers
have much lower stocks than
normal. averaging two 10 three
months instead Of the five 10
seven months supply on hand at
the beginning of the year. More
and more is IL necessary 10 obtain
priority ratings 20 obtain shin
inent. Warehouse distributors con-
tinually study their stocks and in
many cases fiji needs through SUBJ
stitutions. as diversified bars,
which users machine down 20
smaller sizes. or floor plates in
place Of regular plates.
In many cases claims Of steel
shortages at consuming plants are
found 10 be exaggerated. Impor-
tant defense manufacturer com

example. are found 10 have ade-
uuate plate stocks and their COM
plants have been based more on
fears Of the future than Of the
present.

The proper diets The nutritionists say that the

Mountaineering foods. We of the food industry
have been called upon by government officials 10
furnish, in part at least, solution to this prob

Distribution Is a vital factor in solving this
problem. A large share of the retail cost of
foods is the cost OF carrying them from the farm
TO the table. AS efficiency in distribution in

Scrap Shortage
Is Real Threat
To Steel Industry

: CLEVELAND. Aug. 11.-While
many manufacturers continue TO
live in fear of a curtailment of
steel for production OF civilian
goods, that evil day has not yet
arrived. Pinches are reported here
and there but in only a few cases
have they resulted in real dis
tress. With defense needs rapidly
mounting some interference with
nondefense supply may be just
around the corner. In the mean
time some automobile builders
plan TO maintain output at SUBJ
stantlally the present rate through
September. and they are receiv-
ing steel in required volume, says
magazine Steel.
Gravest factor in reference TO
the steel supply is the scrap short

tonnage could be brought to mar
