THANKSGIVING DAY is past, and the next stop on the holiday The intervening period promises to be one of the briskest shop- ping seasons in Juneau's history. So take our tip. Don't wait until the last minute. Get the shop- ping list ready — and be ready to get busy on it. The increases in expenditures, both by government and private business, the establishment of new credits, increases in wage scales and increases in the prices of certain commodities, all have the tendency to raise the general price level: It is a tendency that may be called reflationary rather than inflationary, because many com- modity prices are still below normal levels. But whatever term may be used the result will be the same — a trend toward higher prices which cannot be avoided altogether, although we are assured that every effort will be made to keep it within legitimate bounds. Thrift, as well as a sense of promptitude, will therefore lead the foresighted to meet the needs of their own households along with Early shoppers will find full assortments of merchandise and plenty of salespeople waiting to serve them. Those who wait until too late may find much of this merchan- dise gone and salespeople overwhelmed in the eleventh-hour rush. Shop early! The purchaser who follows this rule will help the merchant and the salespeople, the postal employees, the gift recipient — and most of all, this year particularly, he will help himself.
