Service Pays Oft

Bob Shelley. owner Of an APP
pliance-TV speciality store in
downtown Atlanta, tried a little
experiment in extra liberal
service a couple Of months ago.
He sent out a series of mailing
pieces telling potential custom
ers that he would back not-only
the manufacturers warranties
on two new models of TV sets
but he also would add an addi-
tional years warranty on the
picture tube, a 90-day replace
ment warranty on parts and 80
days Of free service.
His sales during the promo
ton rose 80 per cent.
And this rise occurred despite
the fact that Mr.. Shelley's prices
were above those of some Of his
competitors in the area. 1t &C.

The transition from re-
straint to ease IN monetary pol
icy has produced q marked re-
action in financial markets.
Short term interest rates have
fallen sharply. For example,
the rate on Treasury bills, an
indicator Of the availability Of
funds In the money market,
has declined from over 31a per
cent in October to less than
three-quarters per cent re-
Gently.
Longer term market yields
have come down about three
quarters of a percentage point
from their peaks last autumn.
But there has been heavy
volume of security fiotations in
these markets-and this, Of
course. is the desired objective
of lowered interest rates. State
and local governments, which
in some cases postponed bor-
rowings during the period of
monetary restraint, have bor-
rowed 80 per cent more in the
capital market this year than
in the first five months of 1857.
Corporate borrowing has so far
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1958-06-11


been only slightly below the
record volume Of 1857. Foreign
borrowers and international in
stitutions also have borrowed
more heavily in the United
States capital market than last
year.
THUS monetary policy has
contributed to an increase in
the availability and a reduce
ton in the cost of borrowed
funds. Commercial banks have
reduced their lending rates and.
with their reserve positions
eased. they are in a condition
to respond to increased loan
demands. Meanwhile. their Sc
curity purchases have provided
a large flow of funds to the
money and capital markets,
thereby facilitating private and
governmental wing in
those markets.
II have given this review to
point up the fact that, in the
light of the economic situa-
ton. money and credit policy
is fulfilling its function of pro-
viding a climate favorable for
resumption of our economic
progress so far as that can be
done by actions in this field"

Stocks Decline
After Nearing
Highs Of So
BY ED MORSE
Associated Press Financial Writer

NEW YORK. Mar. 29.-The
stock market this week declined
for the first time in four weeks
There was nothing sensa-
tional about the setback. II
left the market in about the
middle of the same narrow
trading range that has confined
1t since the 1858 high was es-
tablished February 4.
The Associated Press average
Of so stocks was of $3.50 to
$162.7O.
From the viewpoint Of Wall
street chartists. the significant
thing about the market this
week was that it once again
baked at penetrating into the
area beyond the February 4
high. This is now a well-es-
tablished supply area" where
selling is encountered at the
relatively high prices prevailing
on that date when the APP aver
age reached $165.
The market came close to
that peak on Monday and the
Associated Press average
reached $164.60. The Dow
Jones industrial averag {
climbed to 453.75, Just below
its February 4 closing top OF
458.65.
President EiSenhower's state
ment on Wednesday that the
worst of the recession may
have been reached combined
with front-page news that the
United States had launched a
third satellite; but even sucn
news failed to spur the stock
