by coordination with ferry feeders.
At present, the motorship Chill
koot is being operated on a sched-
ule of two sailings weekly. This
ship leaves from Tee Harbor Tues
days and Fridays, accommodating
passenger cars and trucks and a
limited number Of passenger.
The Alaska freight Lines also
operates a type of ferry between
Prince Rupert and Haines, haul
ing refrigerated produce for truck
ing from Haines to the Interior.
This barge service is on approx
mately weekly schedule, and ac-
commodities approximately 200 tons
per trip.
The produce arrives in Prince
Rupert by railroad, is transferred to
y large REFER trailers permanently
located on the barge, ana again
transferred at Haines by conveyors
to the refrigerated trucks for final
haul to destinations in the Interior.
These services are, in effect, fore
runners of the ferry system which
has been investigated and proposed
for serving not only the Haines
gateway, but also the communities
of Southeast Alaska.

Rising Costs Pinch
Smaller Chain and
Branch Stores
By J. B. WolIoch

NEW YORK, Sept. 17.-Faced
by mounting costs of doing busi-
ness and declining or flattening
sales curves, smaller retail units
may become uneconomic to oper-
ate If the squeeze grows more pro-
nounced. While this eventuality
does not confront all types of out
let's, it applies particularly to units
that normally depend upon large
quantities of small transactions to
achieve substantial sales volume.
For some time chains and inde-
pendents that operate branch
shops have recognized the advis-
ability of abandoning smaller
stores in favor of enlarging estab-
lished outlets with greater volume
possibilities. The latter have been
found to be more profitable to OPP
crate and to offer greater oppor-
tunities for expanding business
through diversification of mer-
chandise.
This week. it was reported, drug
chains in one section of the coun-
try are selling or closing smaller
links because they no longer are
competitive with family owned and
operated Independents that do not
have to struggle against prohibi-
tive union-Scale wages and enjoy
the further advantage of remain
ing open as many as 16 hours a
day without mourning the addi-
tional overhead which chains
would meet.
In connection with this devel-
opment, it was stated that aver
age store costs have increased 100
per cent since 1914 while dollar
sales have risen tWo-thirds. This
is not materially dissimilar from
the experience of retail outlets
in general, and it points the need
of their finding ways and means
of doing business in fewer places.
1t follows that self-service selling
facilities also have been more
widely adopted.
Over the past two or three
years New York department and
speciality stores have puC up su-
burban branches several times
larger than tnelr preWar lore
runners. In some instances they
have doubled and tripled the SELL
ing areas of previously established
shops.
These moves were not only
prompted by the considerable
growth of the markets served by
the branches. but also by the fact
that minimum volume require
ments had risen sharply.
1t costs less money to do more
business. ana the sLore tnaU ....4-
not more than match it's expense
percentage increase is becoming
obsolete.
