COUNCIL OF DEFENSE
FOR REDUCED DELIVERY
lndorses Plan of Merchants to Snve
Both Nam Power and Equip
mcnt.

Because OF certain confusion that has
resulted from the proposed reduced
delivery" plan that is being urged upon
retail merchants in Virginia. which is
in line with similar action already
undertaken in many sections Of the
country, the Virginia Council Of De-
tense is making an effort to convince
the public, especially the women, Of
the patriotic character Of the innova-
ton they are asked to approve and
support.
The idea behind the movement is
that unnecessary deliveries will Sc
riously affect the reserve OF
the country, needed for national war
work. Irrespective Of what the imme-
date effect on prices may be, the coun-
ell urges that for the present purchas-
ers cooperate with the merchants with
out complaint, and that the matter Of
prices and other items be left for con-
sideration until the inevitable adjust
ments have been made.
DR.. Anna Howard Shaw, chairman OF
the woman's committee Of the national
council, has sent the State council and
inc women leaders Of State committees
throughout the country an appeal to
back up this proposed change.
The salient facts are brought out in
a letter to the women. as follows:
The draft on September l will take
men from the delivery service through
'u' VIC SouitTy. IL some provision is
not Immediately made for decrease in
the number OF deliveries the merchants
VIII OF necessity take men from other
occupations which may be vital to the
welfare OF the nation to fill the places
lett vacant by men called to the army.
NO man ought to be taken from es-
scntial war industries to carry parcels
which women might carry for them
selves. or be required to make repeated
and unnecessary trips at the call of
l~mprovident housewives. This is the
time when every act of men and women
must be made to count definitely In
the prosecution of the war, and every
bit of useless effort must be elimi-
mated.
The commercial economy board has
asked the State councils of defense and
merchants associations to make a CON
certed effort to decrease the number of
deliveries and to curtail the privilege
OF returning goods. but neither coun-
CHS nor trade associations can effect
'hls much-needed reform without the
co-oneration OF the purchasers. the
great majority Of whom are women.
DO not expect. however, that the
prices Will drop at once, or until tba
merchants have had time to rearranre
their service and their delivery ecuiD-
mcEt (much of which may be utilized
Tor government service), and until
theS are convinced that the women are
sincere In their determination 10 help
effect this reform. satisfactory adj
)nstment can undoubtedly be made, and
prices Will certainly tend to fall. NOT
rise. under the new management hut
the matter Of prime importance is the
speed with which the plan can be
started and put into operation before
men arc called September l."
