NEW YORK. March 15.—A slack
ening of the trading pace today held
bond prices to narrow ranges as
minor losses predominated
The absence of inclination either to
buy or sell was demonstrated in all
sections of the list, particularly in the
domestic corporate quarter, where
late in the morning bonds moved
from plus to minus signs or vice versa
on single, small transactions. Ameri
can Telephone 3i4s opened higher but
reversed its position on light volume.
Other loans to move similarly were
numerous.
Great Northern 4s reacted more
than 2 points, duplicating their trend
of last week, while major fractions
were pared from International Hydro
Electric 6s, McKesson & Robbins 5»/2s
and Western Union 5s. Frisco 4’ys
also gave up nearly a point,
Remington-Rand 4>4s broke about
512 points following activity of the
Department of Labor in connection
with the company's labor relations,
one outgrowth of which was the re
consideration of a Federal contract
•warded the company.
- United States Governments moved
unevenly with losses prevailing. De
clines ranged to 3-32 of a point and
• few issues moved ahead 1-32 or 2-32.

Retail Group Also Finds
Credit Sales Ahead of
Year Ago.
By the Associated press.
ST 1X>UIS, March 15—The Na
tional Retail Credit Association re
ported average increases in collections
and credit sales of 5 per cent and 7.8
per cent, respectively, in 54 cities dur
ing February. The gains were ap
proximately the same as those for the
corresponding month last year, the
association’s report showed.
Increased employment and higher
wages in many sections of the coun
try were advanced as chief reasons
for the February gains. Strikes in
some localities retarded the upswing,
however, the report said.
Thirty-seven cities reported increases
in collections, with Columbus, Nebr.,
where a 26 per cent gain was reported,
heading the list. Ten cities reported
decreases in collections, compared to
February, 1936, while geven indicated
| no chance.
Credit sales increased in 44 cities.
Six reported decreases and four no
change. Youngstown, Ohio, had the
greatest gain in credit sales, 37.8 per
cent, the association’s report said.
Pampa, Tex., reported the greatest
decrease, 22 per cent.
Collections and credit sales were
uniformly good in Florida, due to "no
unemployment” and steady business
conditions, the report said. Several
new industries at Charleston, S. C.,
were credited for substantial increases i
In both collections and sales there.
Increased prices for farm products
in Kentucky and better employment i
conditions In the lead and zinc mines
at Joplin, Mo., were listed as causes
for a marked upswing in those sec
tions.
