SAM DAWSON The Business Mirror By SAM DAWSON AP Business News Analyst NESV YORK (AP) The summer finds retailers fighting sec-saw battle lo set record sales. Bankers, on the oilier hand, keep reporting lliat depos- ts arc rising lo successive highs.

Bui in July people bought more autos than in June. This pushed the vital sector of retail sales, durable goods, up by 2 per cent. This, says the Commerce Department in a prelimi nary guess, makes July Ihe record month for sales in general. The department had said the same thing about June in ils preliminary survey. But that record didn't hold for long.

Later figures dropped June behind May, leaving the earlier month still the champ. At the same time consumers were buying more cars and other goods, both hard and soft they weren't neglecting their bank accounts. The National Associalion of Mutual Savings Banks reports the nation's 507 mutual savings banks had a folal of $46.5 billion deposits in July, compared with 42.7 billion a year earlier. This matte July the record month. But the banks also had another record.

The rise in deposits last month was $275 million, to top the previous high of a $158 million increase in July 1962. This summer's advance was more than twice that of July 1963, when deposit totals rose by $122 million. The association says that rising deposits have been almost continuous during the five months since the federal income fax cut took effxrt. The bankers say people apparently are saving up to half of the tax cut. Steadily rising totals of per sonal income, from wages and salaries, interest, rent collections, as well as lax breaks, have been enough to keep both the banks and the stores reasonably happy.

The Commerce Department's lalest estimates put retail sales in May at $21.8 billion, and in June at billion. It's first guess for July is $21.9 billion. If that holds, the midsummer month will be the champ. Economists watch the durable California Girl Named 'American Beauty' LONG BEACH, Calif.

2-5213 goods sector closely because that is the most volatile. The nondurablcs, such as food and clothing and gasoline, leave the consumer with less discretion. He spends nearly the same on these when personal incomes are leveling off as he docs when they are rising. But when the consumer buys the big-ticket items, the cars and appliances, it may be because he feels confident of being able to swing the payments, or feels flush and expansive. It's a clue lo how long the present business expansion may last.
