...Slice & Rice. Every other city has at least one "name" store, as well as a handful of less famous but no less ambitious ones. And though they boast of the barons and movie stars who patronize them, in fact the ordinary working-class German accounts for an increasingly large slice of the business.

After a series of sales, including 700,000 shares for $31 million in 1959, that slice has thinned to 3% . Last week Hartford was back at the store again, registering with the Securities and Exchange Commission to put on the market 760,000 more shares, worth $21.8 million at the June 10 close of 28¾.
