Above Year Ago
BY the Associated Press.


NEW YORK. Oct. 15.-Heavy Co.
lumbus Day trading and favorable
weather pushed up retail sales VOL
ume above last week and 8 to II per
cent above the like period of 1912
despite reduced holiday promotion
activity, Dun g. Bradstreet, Inc, re-
ported today.
"A large part of the increase was
seasonal" the business research firm
said, but as result of larger stocks
IN many items and evident popu-
larity for higher-priced merchan-
disc, sales volume was well main
tanned over year ago"
In apparel lines women's untrim-
med cloth coats were popular, as
were suits of varied weights and
styles. All types of suit accessories
sold well, and cold weather spurred
early demand for flannelette pa
jamas.
Household items sold we'll where
supplies were available. but the over
all picture was unfavorable. Sales
of paint and cleaning fluids were
heavy. Blankets. linens and towel
ing continued short.
Food market business was report
ed little better, with increased
supplies of eggs and some meats
Fish stocks were off, however.
Unusually heavy recording of fall
winter and holiday items and in
creased interest in spring lines
caused better wholesale activity.
Regional percentage increases
were: New England, to 6; East, 4
to 8; Middle West, to 9; Northwest
8 to 10; South, IA to IT; Southwest,
l5 to 10, and Pacific Coast, 10 to IA

Stock Leaders Edqe
Forward Despite
Profit Taking
BY VICTOR EUBANK,
Associated Press Financial Writer,

NEW YORK, Oct. 15-The stock
market again edged upward today
with leaders adding fractions to 2
points or SO, although light profit
taking stemmed the trend near the
close.
The extension of Thursdays re-
covery got under way at the start
and, while buying was almost as
timid as the day before. there was
enough of it to lift leaders in vir-
tually all departments. Although
some issues inclined to waver at the
last, plus signs were widely dis
trlbuted. Volume ran to about
$4,000 shares for the full pro-
ceedings.
The principal bullish argument
was that selling had dried up to
mere driblet and that. interna tional
developments permitting, the market
was In position to resume the for
ward push Earnings and wishful
thinking on dividends propped indi-
vidual favorites. Many customers,
however, maintained aloofness pend
ing clarification of tax questions and
results of the forthcoming United
Nations conferences at Moscow.
Among the better stock perform
ers were Pullman, Santa Fe, Chrys-
Ter, International Harvester, j. I.
Case, American Telephone. U. S.
Steel, Westinghouse, U. S. Rubber.
Sears Roebuck. Sperry, Southern
Railway, Goodyear, Du Pont and
Eastman Kodak. Occasional stum-
blers included Anaconda, Western
Union Cerro de Pasco and Union
Carbide.
Secondary rail loans tilted higher
in the bond section.

session for that delivery. The option sold
off as much as a5 cents bale. but rallied

Bridges Stresses Need
For Tax Deductions
On Life Policies
BY EDWARD C. STONE.


Between so and TO million Ameri-
can life insurance policyholders are
affected by the Bridges-Goodwin bill
now before Congress, which would
permit certain life insurance pre-
miums to be deducted from gross in
come for tax purposes, it was as
serted by Senator Styles Bridges of
New Hampshire, author of the bill
speaking before the District of Co.
lumbia Life Underwriters Associa-
ton at the willard Hotel yesterday
The relief sought in this bill is neces-
sary to enable many Of these policy
holders to maintain their life insur-
ance In the face of rising living costs
and taxes, the Senator said.
The institution Of life insurance
is one OF the stable, substantial facts
Of our civilization" Senator Bridges
said. TT is lifeline of dependency.
1t Is the best managed system of in
surance saving and investment the
world has ever seen. There are mil
lions OF Americans. like myself, who
have most Of their life savings in life
insurance.
I'VE must take into account, and
now, that many men are finding it
increasingly difficult to keep up the
payments on this form of family pro-
lection which they have established
in their life insurance policies, and
at the same time continue to buy
bonds, pay taxes, keep up with the
ever increasing costs of living.
can think of no catastrophe growing
out Of this war which could equal in
seriousness the loss of this life in
surance."
Senator Bridges emphasized that
he and Representative A. L. Good
win are not seeking to benefit those
engaged in the field of insurance
The bill makes it possible for Ameri-
cans who have been far-sighted
enough to establish a permanent
means of family security. to continue
this protection in spite Of war. taxes
and other ever-increasing burdens.
One bill is now before the Senate
I anu IIlt OlIItl
before the House Ways and Means
Committee.

The order went through the re-
gular routine in the lipstick fac
tory, except that some dope IN
same didn't believe Pvt. Browne,
shipped Sgt. Browne a medium red
lipstick, and billed her husband for
Sll0. Private Browns next letter
was plaintive.
1T would interest me 10 know"
he wrote, by what psychic process
you determined the exact shade Of
red to send my wife, whose orange
hair and general coloring are diff
cult to describe. due to the limita-
tions OF the English language. You
will earn my gratitude If you will
give this your serious attention"
This complaint come to the at
tention of the lipstick factory own
er, Factor, himself. who shut off
the machinery and personally con-
cocted an olive drab lipstick. This
meant making a couple OF dozen
lipsticks. because the lipstick wild
get is like a sausage grinder, and II
won't turn out a single hpstick.
To get the proper shade, Factor had

Merry Chmristmas, | remain" etc.
Factor was aghast. Maybe his
mistake had ruined a marriage be-
tween a private and a sergeant.
Only thing he could do now is ship
all those olive drab lipsticks to
Pvt Browne. with a lengthy and
apologize letter which concluded
due to the dometsic situation
which you mentioned, | am forward.
ing them direct to you, rather than
to your wife. Even II you are no
longer in the mood to send them to
Mrs. Browne, you may be able to
reap some amusement from them in
the future.
And here this story ends. Abrupt
ly. unless the private-or maybe
the sergeant-cares TO write the
concluding installment.
