$5000 RECEIVED FOR RESEARCH

The Bureau of Business Research has just received $5,000, from the American National Retail Jewellers' Association, with a guarantee of $10,000 additional during the next two years, to be used for a study of the operating expenses and management problems in retail jewelry stores. The same methods will be used which the Bureau of Business Research has recently employed in its studies of several other trades. The Graduate School of Business Administration plans in this way to obtain reliable information for teaching purposes.

The co-operation of retail jewellers throughout the United States will be enlisted to furnish the Bureau with figures and other data from their stores. Results of the study will be published for the information of the jewellers and others who are interested in retail marketing problems.
