Data not available.
1/ During March and April changes from.a year ago reflect in part thej fact that last
year Easter was on March 28 v;hile this year it vras on April 17. For this
reason it is estimated that in comparison vdth. last year" allowance should be
made for a decrease in sales of about 6 per cent for" the month of March as a
whole and for a corresponding increase for the month of April as a Trhole.
