ROSEBURO, OREGON, TUESDAY, JANUARY 23, 1923. MONEY AND MARKETS Retail trade is a factor of primary importance in any estimate of the business, outlook. The bulk of the output of industry, whether textiles, boots and shoes, food products, or automobiles, is finally dependent on distribution through retail channels. Pro duction, transportation, distribution, and the whole complex struc ture of finance are based on the purchase of the ultimate con sumer, according to a report just issued by the National Bank of Commerce of New York City. Measured by these standards, last year was one of recovery. A comparison of the volume of business for the year as a whole with that of the preceding year is hardly a fair measure of the de gree of improvement, for during the early months retail trade was at a lower level than during the corresponding months of 1921, and even during the summer months it was not at all encouraging. During tho last months of the year retail trade was consistently better than during the same period of the preceding year. In most parts of the country it compared favorably, in volume, with that of normal years. The outlook for retail trade during 1923 is good. Wages in most industries are high, and unemployment is practically non existent. Stocks of goods, already low, in many lines have been depicted to the point of exhaustion during the past few weeks, and retailers are coming into the markets to replenish them. Wholesalers,' job!ers,' and manufacturers' stocks are not heavy and any general replenishment of stocks by retailers will necessitate increased pro duction by manufacturers in order to supply the demand. The most Important factor of the immediate future in retail trade is price. After two years of stinted buying and waiting for prices to come down, the public has at last come into the market, not buying rashly and extravagantly, as in 1919, but to meet needs which long have been neglected. That increase in prices of raw materials and rising labor costs will be reflected in higher retail prices for spring trade is foreshadowed by the recent advances in catalogue prices amounting to about 10 per cent, by two of the largest mail order houses. Only actual test can determine whether n general increase in prices will tend again to curtail or stifle the habit of normal buying which Is only beginning to be reestablished. Even if the public should bo willing to pay higher prices there i3 danger that as a result widespread demands for higher wages will arise on the plea of necessity because of the rising cost of liv ing. A race between prices nnd wages would likely bring to an end the present period of comparative prosperity. It is to be hoped that this will not occur, but under the circumstances a conserva tive pplicy is desirable. ' Sufficient confidence to take advantage of expanding business is necessary if much needed profits are to bo made but experience has demonstrated that overconfidence based on expectation of indefinite expansion of business through a long period at rapidly rising prices will sooner or later be fol lowed by disillusionment.

Announcing - Studebakcr it the world's largest builder of six-cylinder cars. Our appointment to the Studebaker Dealership We now handle the Studebaker line of cars in this territory. Our appointment is, in reality, a matter of our own cnoice. We would rather handle Studebaker cars than any other cars on the market today Because of the universal respect for and confi dence in the name "Studebaker." Because of the wonderful performance records of Studebaker Cars. Because of the enthusiasm of Studebaker owners everywhere. Because of the uniformly high quality of Studebaker Cars, which, combined with their extremely moderate prices, make them thc outstanding values today, among motor cars. The great and nation-wide popularity of Studebaker Cars is shown by the fact that in the year of 1 92 1 Studebaker enjoyed the biggest business in its history. Sales of Studebaker Cars were 29 per cent greater in 1 92 1 than in 1 920, notwithstanding that the total number of cars sold of all other makes, except Ford, was 45 per cent less than in 1 920. Stop in and inspect the Studebaker Sixes each of which represent the greatest intrinsic value for the price. W. A.
