. CLEARANCES SPARK RETAIL SALES. Summer clearances, fall apparel and back-to-ichool
selling last week helped push retail sales 4 per cent ahead of the same week last
year, reports Fairchlld News Service. Despite the prevailing hot weather throughout most
sections of the country, coats were developing strong activity in many areas. Six of the re
porting cities gave special mention to this trend along with some optimistic interest in knits.
Stimulated by sportswear and swim wear promotions, department stores in the New York
northeastern New Jersey metropolitan area showed a S per cent increase. Some retailers
pointed out that the trend toward more people taking vacations later in the summer
might be contributing to a lengthening period for summer casualwear selling. With fall
selling picking up business, department stor.-s in Detroit went 3 per cent ahead of the same
week a year ago. In St. Louis, metrolopitan retail volume went ahead 2 per cent. Air
conditioners and refrigerators were especially strong movers. The weather was hot in
Cincinnati and so were sales which finished the week with a gain of 10 per cent. Increases
were reported across the board. .

caution, builder D. L. Plckell is using fire-resistant roofing on the 100 homes in his new
development at 411 East Main Street In Medford, Oregon.
The roofs vaTy in color, but all are asphalt shingles, classified as "approved roofing
by the Pacific Fire Rating Bureau, which establishes fire insurance rales.

they permit lower Insurance rates in most areas. In addition, asphalt shingles are durable,
easy to maintain, attractive and economical, he said.

added.

WARD'S PASSENGER CAR TIRES TEST
ED BY PARNELLI JONES Nylon passen
ger tires that recently passed a series of
gruelling tests at the Indianapolis race track
were received here today and will be offered
to motorists through the month of August,
according lo J. J. Materie, local Montgomery
Ward store manager,
"ParnelH Jones, winner of the Indianap
olis '900, test drove Riverside tires for 100
miles at straightaway speeds up to 138.46
m.p.h. lo prove their safety and stability for
hot-weather high-speed endurance driving on
the nation's turnpikes," J. J. Materie, local
siora manager said. Jones is shown inspecting
one of the tires at the right.
Jones saidi "If a motorist is looking for a
safe tire for highspeed driving, these tests
should prove that Wards Riverside can take
more punishment than motorists will ever
give them." .
The Montgomery Ward store manager also
pointed out that while normal passenger car
drivers never reach race track speeds, the
fact that Riverside ST-107 nylon tiret were
tested under gruelling conditions by the
country's foremost race car driver, proves that
Riverside tires will withstand high-speed driv
ing far in excess of normal turnpike driving.
This makes them doubly safe under nor
mal driving conditions," J. J. Materie said.

Washington -flJPD- An aide
to Gov. .lockefeller has been
assuring Republican legislat
ors in Washington that his
chief is solidly in the 1964
presidential race, according to
the New York Times.
In a dispatch published to
day the Times quoted uniden
tified congressmen as having
been assured that the govern
or would stay in the fight for
the Republican nomination
through at least two primary
contests-probably New Hamp
shire and California. .
The assurances, according
to the Times, were circulated
among liberal Republican sen
ators and congressmen by
George L. Hinman, Republi
can national committeeman
from New York, who is a
Rockefeller political adviser.
Not Committed
"I just wanted you to know
that we're in this thing all
the way," the Times quoted
Hinman as telling the legis
lators. However, the accounts
said that Hinman was careful
not to commit the governor
to a specific political sched
ule.
Hinman, queried about the
reports today in New Yorn,
said, "All I have to say is 'no
comment'."
But the impression left by
Hinman. according to the
Times, was that Rockefeller
was prepared to contest the
California and New Hamp
shire primaries, at least.
Good Reception
Preliminary soundings by
the Rockefeller pulse takjrs
have indicated a good recep
tion for the governor among
New Hampshire Republicans.
Moreover, Dartmouth College,
of which Rockefeller is a
faithful alumnus, is situated
there, and he has done much
for the college.
California, Rockefeller aides
feel, may be a fertile place
for testing the liberal Rocke
feller philosophy. Sen. Thom
as Kuchel heads a militant
faction of Republican liberals
there.
The assurances given by
Hinman to key Republicans
are seen as an attempt to fore'
stall worries by potential
Rockefeller backers that their
man will drop out of the race
at the last minute, as some
felt he did in 1960.
