Bankruptcies Of Britishers Bring Policy of Economy London. English people have de termined upon a policy of strict ecoa omy resulting In a considerable in crease in the number of bankrupt' cles during the last wek months. These failures have occurred not only In London but also, in the provinces. Bus iness men, however, are confronted by the fact that the aggregate num ber is far below the total for pre-war years, figures for 1919 being 737 as against 2866 for 1914. While many reasons are advanced for this state of affairs,' the most ac ceptable one in business circles is the attitude of the .buying public which has decided only to purchase abso lute necessities. In consequence, trad ers who have purchased large stocks of goods at fancy prices. in anticipa tion of quick and handsome profits, find ... themselves ..with "white ,-. ele phants" on their hands and a non buying public. - The goods had to be disposed of frequently at a big loss. The recent bankruptcies Included a number of demobilized men who start ed business with the proceeds of their gratuity and small savings.- These men, for the most part, were Inex perienced in the ways of trade and when a severe test came, they were forced to close their doors. A woman proprietor of a high clasB millinery shop . In Bond ' Btreet ex plained recently that wealthy women who before the war bought generous ly in such speciality shops as hers, were unable to do so now, because of the tremendous increase in the cost of living, wages for servants, etc. These women now are only purchasing the necessities, the business woman added. From every trade comes the re port that shop keepers and business houses' generally find themselves with an overstock -of goods, purchased in hope sf a . big buying season this spring and summer.
