'Soturotion' Problem Discussed
BY SYLVIA PORTER

When are we going to be
"saturated"-own so many ra-
dioS, refrigerators, TV sets, etc.,
that we won't enter the market
except to replace things that
have worn out?
More than SO per cent of
Americas families own radios;
more than 80 per cent own
refrigerators; more than 80 per
cent electric irons.
More than IS per cent own
electric clocks; more than 80
per cent washing machines.
More than 70 per cent own TV
sets, electric coasters, cars.
These statistics explain why
more and more businessmen are
worrying about "saturation" and
running out of customers. At
a private luncheon yesterday,
heard a nationally known bust
neSsman forecast a chilling
slump-and a major reason for
his pessimism is his conviction
that we're simply loaded with
goods.
Well, my answer is:
You and I will never be "satu-
rated" - unless our economy
first goes into a tailspin, throws
us out of jobs and slashes our
buying power.
Putting it another way, the
more you and I own of every
thing from autos to TV, the
more we want of everything
from autos to TV.
And if, by chance, you think
I'm emphasizing the obvious,
you couldn't be more wrong.
What I'm summarizing here is
one of the most significant find
ings that the experts on eco
nomic psychology" = who are
doing pioneering research into
what makes the customer tick
have turned up in modern times
Consider radios - about as
saturated" market as you
could mention.
Yet, sales of radios are run

ming into the millions every year,

actually top sales of most other
electrical appliances.
Replacement of old or broken
sets? OF course.
Consider refrigerators, an
other mighty saturated" mar
ket.
Yet. sales Of refrigerators go
into the millions each year too.
Replacement? In a good per-
centage of cases, sure.
But in many others, it's the
wish to turn in a still satisfac-
tory model for a bigger one or
more improved or a more color

AS long as we feel confident,
we'll be customers. Only if we
become insecure, will be become
