Ohio Retail,
Sales Down
.4Pct. In Sept.

September retail sales in Ohio
were down four per cent from the
level for the corresponding month
of 1857, according to the current
issue of the Ohio Retail Annalist,
published by the Bureau of Busi-
ness Research at Ohio State Uni
versity.
September sales were down
three per cent from August after
seasonal adjustment. For the
first three quarters of 1858, total
Ohio sales have averaged seven
per cent below the corresponding
period of 1857.
Most of the 19 kinds of business
for which figures are compiled
experienced September to- Sep
tember sales declines. Largest
drop from year-ago sales was ex-
perienced by automobile dealers,
down u per cent from Septem-
Der, 1857. However, scattered
gains from last year occurred in
the sales of food stores and some
apparel stores, lumber-building
materials dealers, and florists.
The seasonally adjusted index
of Ohio retail sales compiled by
the university bureau stood at 123
per cent of the 1947-49 average at
the end of September.
Of the eight largest Ohio cities,
two, Columbus and Cincinnati,
experienced September to Sep
tember gains in retail sales. In
Columbus the increase was three
per cent; in Cincinnati, one per
cent. In the other six cities, de-
clines ranged from four per cent
in Dayton to IL per cent in Akron
and Youngstown.
The "Annalist," a monthly pub
lication of the Bureau of Business
Research, is prepared for Ohio
retailers and others interested in
the trends of the states retail
trade.
