MONTGOMERY WARD CO.
LOSE NRA BLUE EAGLE
Washington. — Montgom-
ery Ward & Co., one of the
country’s largest mail order
houses, has been deprived by
NRA of the right to display the
Blue Eagle. This action was ta-
ken because of the alleged
failure of (he company to pay
its equitable share of the cost
of administering the Retail
Code.
A letter from the NRA also
notified the company that it
would no longer be on the list
of companies from which agen-
cies disbursing Federal funds
are free to purchase articles,

Washington. — The Cham-
ber of Commerce of the Unit-
ed States, looking upon busi-
ness conditions generally, finds
reason to believe that the first
quarter upturn in industrial
production of “at least 10
per cent” is continuing in some
measure into the spring.
At the same time, an in-
crease of $3,000,000,000 in to-
tal bank deposits during the
last half of 193J was reported
by the Federal Deposit Insur-
ance Corporation. This repre-
sented a gain of 9 per cent in
deposits from June 30 to tlje
end of December.
The Chamber of Commerce
declared that "at the begin-
ning of Anril there is appar-
ent some hesitation, such as
developed temporarily in Feb-
ruary, but with the difference
that seasonal influences for
some advance are now more
patent than in midwinter.”
Conditions are spotty, with
considerable irregularity i n
different areas, the chamber
reported, but “there is also
evidence that the general level !
of business activity continues I
above the level at the begin- j
ning of the second quarter of I
1935.”
Business failures in March
were reduced in number com-
pared with each of the two
preceding month this year. For
that month the number was j
smaller than for March in any !
year back to 1920.
The records of Dun & Brad-!
street, Inc., showed 976 busi-
ness defaults in the United
States for the month just clos-
ed, compared with 1,102 in
March last year and 1,948 two
years ago. The record high for
i March was for that month in
11932, when the number of fail-
ures was 2,951.

Miss Althea Kent, Sec.
Your wife
will know f#7# 1/ we buy from
Western Electric
As the world’s best purchasing
agent, she applies the same rules
of thrifty buying used by the
Bell System.
0/4 special study based on 3,000
separate items of telephone equipment
and supplies indicates this fact:
Western I'lcctric, as supply unit of
the Bell System, sells tu Bell operat-
ing companies for a fourth less, on
the average, than the lowest price
offered by independent supply firms.
This of course docs not mean a
saving of a fourth on every item
bought from Western Electric. Some
supplies . . • paper, paints, poles, for
example . . . range from J to 17 per
cent under usual market prices. Oth-
ers, tuch as telephones, cables and
switchboards, show similar variations
in the amount saved.
But the important point, clearly
indicated, it that Western’s prices
arc appreciably lower to us than open
market prices.
As one of the 24 associated com-
panies of the Bell System, we buy
most of our equipment and much of
our supplies from Western because
we get bargains there, because we get
uniform quality and the assurance
of exact performance . . . and because
Western Electric parts are so de-
signed that future improvements and
developments will fit into and work
with equipment already in use.
These factors help us materially in
achieving the Bell System policy of
good telephone service at fair cost to
the user.
