81 Per Cent Below
Year Ago in Week
BY EDWARD c. STONE.

Department store sales in the
Capital for the week ending last

low the previous week this year,
the drop being 6 per cent. Sales
in the Fifth District declined 4
per cent, and were also lower in

Merchants assigned most of the
decline in sales last week to cold
weather which delayed spring buy
ing.

1943 period. The Fifth District
average was better, sales being
down but S per cent, the report
stated, several cities noting gains.
Dividend Rate UNCHANGED.
Declaration of ST quarterly
dividend by the directors of the
Mergenthaler Linotype Co. is the
same as was voted in the first quar-
ter of l943 and of 1912. The divi-
dend will be paid on March Is to
stockholders of record March l.
Later action in 1943 made the divi-
dend for the full year SIS per share.
At that rate, the stock now selling
around SO, yields about 10 per cent,
highest return of any stock listed
on the Washington Exchange,
Bankers Hunting Students.
B. Bruce Frantz, chairman of the
educational committee of Washing
ton Chapter, American Institute of
Banking, said today that the men,
berS OF his committee are making
every possible effort to interest the
new employees in the banks, espe-
cially, and all others in the courses

ceived throughout neat week.
The courses include, commercial
law, William M. Baughman, in
structor; economics, taught by S. L.
Simonian, and current events, I'M
charge of Elmer Louis Kayser. The
older members of the Institute are
constantly stressing the value of the
training to all bank employees.

The Federal Reserve Board an
nounces that department store sales
in the Atlanta area from January
through February IL were II per
cent ahead of last year, the best
gain among the - Reserve Districts.
