Crowd Sidewalks
In Shopping Surge

christmas shopping was eX-
tended an extra day in Washing
tons retail district yesterday.
The sidewalks were crowded with
shoppers.
A few persons entering the
stores were carrying packages
and apparently had come down.
town to exchange presents. But
they were in a minority. Most of
those in the crowds surging into
the stores were empty handed.
They went in to shop and came
out bearing bundles.
Some of the Christmas win
dows remained and gave the
illusion that Christmas is still
coming. Display men were busy
changing others.
Bargains Snapped Up.
A radio commentator quipped: ::
"It is 364 days to Christmas" and
cited an ad offering Christmas
cards at half price to prove that
Christmas shopping was starting
all over again. He turned out to
be right for the counters with
Christmas cards at half price
and the shelves with Christmas
tree ornaments at a similar saw
ing were mobbed by shoppers
standing three deep and swept
bare of merchandise before the
day was over.
The stores were handicapped
by a shortage of personnel. EN-
ployment in the post Christmas
period is the lowest in the year.
1t picks up in the spring, declines
again in the summer and in
creases through the fall and
Christmas shopping seasons until
sales personnel is about so per
cent greater in December than in
January.
Merchandise men said yester-
days rush was due largely to the
circumstances of the day after
Christmas falling on a Saturday
Clearance sales in womens
dresses are post Christmas an
nual. These departments were
crowded yesterday in the big
stores. There was also big busi-
ness in carpets and rugs and in
televiSion sets. Customers who
had received gifts of cash with
the suggestion they buy them
selves a present. apparently were
following instructions.
The merchandise men were
glad that Washington stores had
decided to open on the day after
the holiday. Department stores
in Baltimore and Richmond were
closed yesterday.
Yesterdays surprisingly big
business may help put the De-
cember sales volume of Washing
tons department stores above
that of last year. This years fig
ureS tabulated by the Federal
Reserve Board have been off
about 2 per cent-including
those for November. The Decem-
ber figures will not be available
until after the first week in Jan
uary.
The Chesapeake & Potomac
Telephone Co., meanwhile, re-
ported that $4,000 long distance
and transoceanic calls were
placed in Washington on Christ
mas day. OF these, 66,2OO or "a
per cent were completed-a rec
ord. Last year, IS per cent of
calls were completed. Delays due
to loaded circuits, busy signals
and mo answer" kept the per-
centage of completed calls from
going higher.
