Women Buying More New Clothes

Trade Boom

In Autumn

THO Women of Great Britain are buying more clothes than last year. The people also are enting more.

And the country's rade is due for n "steep upward bend," according to Sir William Crawford, head of the British delegation to the Advertising Convention at the World's Fair.

Retail sales of women's clothes in Great Britain last April were up by 1.3 per cent, on April 1935. according to the Board-of-Trude-Journal.

And this despite the fact that with Easter falling early in the month (Easter Sunday was, April 9), the sales were probably affected by pre- holiday purchases being made in Mareli,

In April, us in March, Central and West-End London was the only dis- trict where there was a fall in total sales, the Aurii decrease amounling to 7 per cent. Increases ranged from 1.0 per cent. in suburban London tu and 3.4 per cent. in the Midlands South Wales.

"PROSPERITY WAVE" Sales of food and perishables were 2.9 per cent. up on last year.

4th June to which I have nothing to add.
