World Wild With
Waste, Says Page

Special Gable to The Atlanta Georgian.
ABERDEEN, March 27.-"All the
prosperous nations of the world are
running wild with waste" declared
Ambassador Page to-day He lauded
the frugality of the Scotch people,
who, he said, had great influence in
forming the character of the Ameri-
can people, as they stood for liberty,
equality and frugality. Contrasting
the latter trait with those Of other
nations, he said:
Everywhere there is waste in gov
eminent administration and in rri-
vate expenditures. Even in America
we have to check ourselves lest we
waste the very soil"
