Millions of sturdy Americans citizens who W{)uld shrink !rom buying an automobile on the installment plan have no hesitation in going in for a refined practice like defened payments for diamonds, suits, dresses, books, stoves, · pianos, victrolas, radios, furniture, electrical machines -and homes. Im;tead of educating the people to do a cash business modern ·retail methods have gone to the other eXIta·eme. Of course prices include the average per cent for losses, and the interest rates chat•ged ~eet11 to make it an object, but the fact is now being developed that many people are peldged to pay more than their weekly salary amounts to, and wages of I)lillions are mortgaged i r years to come. Meanwhile the grocer, the doctor, the dent;st, the regular merchant, is "standing the gaff" for everyday necessities. The installment busine~s has assumed such proportions that it i::, found necessary to e:>tablish a customer's clearing house in each community to the end that one dealer will know what the customer may owe to another dealer, and at the same time cooperate with the employer.
