SAVINGS BANKS MAKES MONEY

Berlin, March IA report of the
German savings banks shows that
they have done satisfactory business
since the war began. In the days
around the end of July about $4,000
900 more was withdrawn from them
than was paid in; but In August the
deposits exceeded the Withdrawals. In
October, owing to the payment of sub.
scriptions on the big national loan,
the Withdrawals again exceeded de-
posits by some $90.o0O,o00. but the re-
duction Of deposits during the second
half OF the year was altogether only
about $2s.ooo.ooo; and II the interest

holdings for the half-year actually in
creased by almost $50,OOO,O00. For
the entire year the increase was over
$500, 100000. A considerable number
OF savings banks have already issued
their annual reports for 1914, and not
one of them show a reduction in de
posits. Since the beginning of the
new year considerable improvement
in the business of the banks has been
observed. From various parts of the
country 1t is reported that deposits
nave been heavier than ever before.
People are apparently laying by
money to subscribe for the next big
war loan, which will probably be
brought out in about two months.

= THE NEED OF GOOD
y ELECTRIC LIGHTING
BY w. L. kennon,
University of Mississippi.
>~~~ = . . ~~~~~~> . 80,

The question is often asked. "Does
electric lighting pay?" Whether or
not, electric lighting proves profit
able investment depends on the man.
ner in which this light is employed. II
Is certainly true that the public wastes
many millions of dollars annually by
ignoring some of the simplest princi.
pies of efficient illumination. Given
an adequate candle power we may
have either bad illumination or good
illumination.
Bad illumination may result from
placing an adequate light in the wrong
place. 1t may be located poorly for
Illuminating the area it is intended to
illuminate. or 1t may be located so as
to Interfere with the eye viewing com.
fortably the illuminated area. Lights
should not be placed so as to shine
directly into the eyes. Both of these
undesirable results may be accomplish.
ed by the practice Of placing a bright
unshaded light in room with dark
walls. Dark wall paper and dark wood
finish require four times the candle
power required for light walls, and
then the problem Of Illuminating is
only partly solved.
Bad illumination may result from
the improper distribution and diffu.
sion Of light. A single bright source
OF light without globe causes dark
shadows about the room and makes
the contrast of light and shadow un.
pleasant and on account of the undue
tax placed on the eye to discriminate
objects in the shadow while the pupil
is contracted, for the brighter illumi-
nation. Even where a strong local II.
Elimination is provided for a special
purpose, as for example the use of a
table lamp with shade or reflector
for reading or sewing, there should
also be a good general illumination
about the room. This general illumi |
nation may best be secured with an
opal or ground glass globe over the |
lamp. Although globes absorb fifteen |
per cent of the light. one should not |
attempt to save on light at the ex
pense of the eve. The test of good Il |
is that 1t enables the eye
to see comfortably.
In the home, school, office. shor
wherever people. especially children
are required to apply the eve closely
they have a right to demand eve com
fort which can only result from good
lighting ARRANGEMENTS. Rad illvmina

THE POWER MERGER

The public utilities commission has
given authority to several of the cleo
trio power plants of southern Idaho
to combine into one organization, and
it is understood that a gigantic COM
pany is to control the entire power
field in this section, absorbing the few
small concerns that may not be in
the original merger. In one sense
the decision of the commission is abb
solutely correct for it is essential that
public utilities shall be monopolistic
in their character one company serv-
ing its field; but, for single company
to control the light and power of a
whole section of country, including
many municipalities has its disad-
vantages. 1t will prevent the devel-
opment of the water power resources
of southern Idaho in this instance
and retard the growth of the State
And it will greatly complicate the sit

Public ownership of all public utili-

JUSTICE FOR WORKERS

The Sherman antitrust law was so
construed by the courts that Loewe x
Company, hatters of Danbury, Conn,
were enabled to get a judgment
against the Hatter's union of that
city in the sum of several hundred
thousand dollars. This judgment
represented three times the amount
of the alleged actual damage by rea-
son of boycott established by the
Hatter's union. 1t is perfectly OBJ
vious to every thinking individual
that Congress never intended the law
to be construed in this manner as it
was supported by every friend of or
ganized labor in Congress, and this
construction was never once asserted
in the debates by any one. Since
this decision was rendered and was
upheld by the National Supreme
Court, Congress has shown its for
mer plain intent by passing the Clay
ton bill, under the provisions OF
which no similar judgment can never
be obtained.
Loewe & Company have attached
some $50 savings accounts OF men,
bers of the Hatter's union and have
also attached the homes of large
number and have wrested from these
hard working members of society in
this manner something like $4,000
and boast that they will be able to get
that much more.
The injustice in this proceeding; its
utter heartlessness and the hardships
which it imposes upon innocent work
ers should appeal to every citizen OF
the Republic. This monumental in
EQUITY should not be permitted to
stand, but the Republic itself should
come to the rescue. Congress should
appropriate the money to pay the
Loewe verdict and should give the
workers back their savings and Their
homes.
