During the same period, rural retail sales fell 57 per cent, and city department stores sales, 46 per cent. From 1933 to the last quarter of 1935, Bean said, farm income has in- creased approximately 86 per cent; rural retail sales, 93 per cent; money income other than agricultural, 25 per cent, and city retail sales, 33 per cent, 3,476,782 WORKING ON RELIEF PROVECTS President Unable to Estimate How Much of Work Fund Will Remain Jan. 1 Washington, Dec.. 20.—()—Revised employment figures issued by Harry L.
