was predicted Wednesday by W. F.
McClure, ('hector of publicity of the
Fort Dearborn National bank, in an
address belore the national eon
pier of retail merchants in session
at Chicago.
"Lower prices will not mean los
to merchants," Mr. McClure said.
"They will be made possible by
un increased volume of buying.
"Advertising will turn the trick,"
he continued. "It will bring such
a flood of customers that goods can
be marked low, and small profits on
individual Durchase will amount to
large figr.res on many customers."
