But the statistical evidence also emphasizes the fact that instead of buying things people have bought bonds, paid off debt, and in some cases just added to their cash holdings. If the 56 per cent and would have a lot less money in reserve. The over-all picture is one of prudence rather than of profligacy. Inconstant Women (Washington Post) Despite the very considerable contribution that women have made to the war effort at home, it ap- pears that many of them have seriously failed in loyalty and devotion to their men to the front lines. In an interview with the press last week, Maj. John FIGURES ON The picture of profligacy in spending that one gets in looking over wartime America is tempered in the light of some recent statistics. The Cleveland | Trust Company Business Bulletin for January 15 con- tains a chart plotting the course of retail sales in relation to national income from 1929 to the present | time. The fact that stands out impressively is that for most of this 15-year period retail sales and na- | tional income rose and fell together. The close cor- |freedom, and jobs away from home.

Since our entry into the war, however, ad- vances in retail sales have lagged far behind the . increases in national income. " Instead of 56 per cent of the national income being devoted to purchases of | goods at retail, retail sales amounted to only 50 per cent of national income in 1942 and 42 per cent in the | first 10 months of 1943. an average of about 56 per cent for the preceding 11 | i In short, although sales are at high level and'the heavy burden of the fighting.

The causes for this demorahizing state of affairs is not, we believe, difficult to discover. It derives from the serious dislocation of civilian life which accom- panies a total war.
