NEW YORK. April 2.—Conflicting
sentiment prevailed in the bond mar
ket today, although forces for the
decline held the whip hand.
United States Governments, the
market's recent focal point., were re
actionary early in the session but
marshaled some support in the fore
noon. These bonds, off small frac
tions to nearly half a point in the
initial hour, narrowed their losses
later in the morning.
Elsewhere in the list modestly lower
prices held sway. Setbacks were frac
tional for the most part. Rails ap
peared to be the most actively offered
group, with utilities also in supply.
Industrial liens showed little inclina
tion to move either way.
Of the carriers. Southern Railway
4s were down more than a point and
Southern Pacific 4’2s lost about a
point. Declines of a half point or so
were recorded by Missouri Pacific 5s
‘ F," New York Central 5s, Baltimore
& Ohio 4’-s and Rock Island Gen
eral 4s.

Post-Holiday Slackening Is
Avoided as Shopping Hits
Faster Pace.
Hi the Associated Press.
NEW YORK, April 2.—Spring shop
ping swept on through the pre-Easter
period into the present week with
widening stride, Dun & Bradstreet
said today, and retail, wholesale and
Industrial activities expanded.
The after-holiday lull was lacking
in the country’s stores, the weekly
review said.
“Many retail stores were better
patronized than in the week pre
ceding,” the survey stated. "While
men's clothing, hats and furnishings
moved rapidly into the foreground,
the women’s wear division maintained
its dominating position."
"Dressmakers’ cape costumes, three
piece suits, untrimmed coats, dresses
and accessories’’ were among the best
selling items. Sandal-type shoes were
in demand.
Sales at retail ran 2 to 5 per cent j
ahead of the preceding week on the I
average for the country as a whole,
but the gain over the same period
last year was shortened, due to the
rising tide before Easter, the survey
showed.
In the Middle West, affected by
strikes, the advantage over a year
ago was 8 to 16 per cent; in the
Northwest the improvement was 12
to 18 per cent. In the South the
spread over a year ago was lessened,
but was still 15 to 22 per cent. Gains
in the Southwest narrowed to 6 to 12
per cent, also under the influence
of labor strife. On the West Coast
the addition to last year’s volume
was 8 to 15 per cent.
After a two-week slackening the
survey showed renewed liveliness in
wholesale marts. Reordering was on
a rising scale and, with Easter out

of the way, many merchant* went
wholesale buying.
“The combined total of order* lifted
the estimated wholesale volume sub
stantially for the week, but the gain
was narrowed to 10 to 18 per cent
over 1938, a* comparison was made
with mounting Easter buying of a
year ago,” the review said.

([questions that are asked about BANKING|
T'T TE arc glad to have loan applications from
VV non-depositors. Naturally, our first
consideration is to take care of the credit
requirements of our own customers. We feel
that we owe them this consideration and
they, of course, through their dealings with
us, have usually established credit standing.
But a non-depositor need not feel himself
barred. If his reputation for integrity and
honesty is established, if his credit standing is
such to justify a loan of the amount which
he needs, this bank will be glad to consider
the application.
Whether or not you are a depositor in this
bank, if you wish to borrow, we suggest that
you come in and discuss the matter with us.
We welcome the opportunity to employ our
loanable funds for sound purposes.
