If you're in the $4,000 to So

It's the largest of all income

about 81 per cent of the popula-

If you're in the $1,000 to So

This group covers 9 per cent

II you're in the $10,000-and-

millions account for 5 per cent

Discussion on
Credit Plans

NEW YORK, Jan. 8 (P.-
Department stores must find
ways to gear credit to the con-
sumer-not the consumer to
credit. George L. Griffith,
credit sales manager of Rich's.
Inc, Of Atlanta, said today.
Promotion Of credit plans
should stress flexibility, sim
plicity. convenience, complete
ness and the absence of red tape,
he said in a speech at the 46th
annual convention Of the
National Retail Dry Goods Asso-
citation.
New credit plans and revers-
ing the down trend Of volume at
downtown department stores
were the prime subjects on to-
days session of the convention,
which opened yesterday and
runs through Thursday.
Business will not turn down in
1857 but it will flatten out its
rate Of growth considerably. NAL
colin P. McNair, professor Of
retaining at the Harvard Uni
versity Graduate school of BUSH
ness Administration, told the
convention last night.
Prof. McNair, making an an
nual forecast. said that increases
in dollar magnitudes. as COM
pared with 1856. presumably will
be registered. but the physical
component Of these increases is
likely to be small.
He said he did not want to
sound pessimistic. but said such
a performance by American
business in 1857 would represent
a period of necessary stabiliza-
ton. a needed breathing spell,
to insure a vigorous forward ad-
vance a little later.
Senator Goldwater, Republic
can of Arizona, and three mer-
chandising executives we're
awarded silver plaques for "out-
standing achievement in specific
areas Of retail distribution in

finished. The middle-upper in
come family doesn't want Just
one TV set; it wants two Cor
more. This family isn't satisfied
with one car; it wants two and
1t wants de luxe models. The
housewife in this family doesn't
use an appliance until it falls
apart; she buys a new one long
before the old is worn out, and
she is constantly seeking i'm
proved appliances.
The trend toward increased
spending on food will become
even more apparent.
Middle-upper income families
are showing a growing awareness
OF and desire for gourmet foods.
