r—.Revised.
" 2 / Dutiag March and April changes from a year 'ago reflect in part the fact that last
year Easter was on April 6 while- this year it was on March 23. For this reason
it is estimated that in comparison with last year allowance should be made for
an; increase"in sales of about 1 per cent for the, month of March as a whole and
for a corresponding decrease for the month of April as a whole.
* In using
year ago comparisons for the weeks ending June 5 ,and May 29 allowance
should be Made for the fact that in regioti's observing thq Memorial Day holiday
store closings this year occurred in the week ending June . whereas last year
5
they occurred in the previous week..
