The secretary was primed for

A slowing up Of the recession
was indicated anew today by
q Government report on March
retail sales and personal in
come.
Retail sales dropped / per
cent in March and the rate Of
personal income declined by
$500 million. But in each case
the decline was less than the
rate in the previous month.
This was expected to offer
support for President Eisen-
hower's "go-slow" approach on
tax cuts and other drastic
measures to curb the recession.
Earlier in the week the Presi-
dent said he believed there was
q slowing up Of the decline.
The preliminary March sales
total as reported by the Com
merce Department was $15,4l7,-
100000 in all types Of retail
stores. This was about 1912
million below the March 1857
level.
The total was ! per cent be-
low the February and 2 per
cent below March a year ago.
Auto Sale Drop Continues
A major factor in the sales
decline was the continued drop
in automobile sales. Auto sales
were nearly $500 million below
the $2,728.0 200. 900 q year ago.
Increases were shown by food
and apparel stores. Declines
from a year ago were reported
in furniture stores, lumber,
hardware, building material
and farm equipment.
The annual rate Of personal
income in March. according to
the Commerce figures. was
$34l.4 billion as compared with
$34l.7 billion in February. The
March rate. 1t was said, was
SIS billion below the peak last
August.
