them see signs the worst may be

be fading-r1o boom iii sight, as
some had hoped, but a slow.

Retail business perked up a
little this week-everywhere ex-
cept in New York, where few
people had time to 60. to the
stores because of the baseball
crisis.
Dividends continue to flow in
record totals into the pockets of
holders Of shares In American in
dustry.
Movie house operators-once
the gloomiest of them all-sav
that the upturn in attendance still
continues.
Food prices hold about steady
the fall vegetable, fruit and
cereal harvest offsetting the rise
in some meat prices.
And even the weather came
to the aid of some metal useres.
Heavy rains in the Pacific north

today increased spending this
week lifted total retail trade to
around last years levels for the
nation as a whole, but from three

south and southwest.
From now on, many believe,
department stores sales should
show gains over last year-since

mer died down.
General merchandise trade has
improved seasonally," The Ma

notes in its october letter, "but
not yet as much as merchants
had hoped"
Then the bank goes on to note
that leading retailers. while they
had higher dollar sales the first
half of this year than they did
the year before, reported their
net income Squeezed by increas-
es in the cost of goods, operating
expenses, and taxes The bank
averages the sales of the nations

them up IL per cent over the first
