"In spite of the expanding trend at tills time a year Ago, the estimated volume of retail sales for the country as a whole ranged from lfl to 35 per cent In excess of that for the cor responding lGSfl week. "Paralleling the rapid flow of mer chandise Into consuming channels, buying at wholesale was unchecked this week.
