Millions of Laborers Needed.

Mr.. Miller stated his opinion that 1t
would require all of the economic re-
sources of the country to win the war;
IT have it on competent authority,
he said. that it takes the labor OF four
men. working in industries Of one kind
other needed supplies, to maintain one
soldier at the front. This means that
an American army of 100000 men
will require the output of 100000
men. working in factory, field and
foundry.
II also have it on competent author
ity that the munitions, provisions and
other maintenance that the armies and
civilian populations of our allies In
Europe must have from US will require
the output of more than 100000 Ia
borers working in this country.
eff we accept as approximately ac-
curate the estimates of our present
available labor supply as amounting to
s0.000.000 workers. the magnitude of
the economic problems with which we
are confronted is suggested by the re-
quirement that one-half or more of our
existing labor supply must. during the
war. be devoted to the producing of
materials and supplies to be consumed
lies and the civilian populations of the
nations in Europe which are dependent
on US for part of their necessary keep.
Business as Usual' Wrong.
at cannot believe" Mr. Miller con-
tinued. that those who are sponsoring
the doctrine of business as usual can
appreciate the economic Significance of
the doctrine. The man who knowingly
breaches the doctrine Of business as
usual at this time is proposing that
private advantage should be set
against or ahead of public necessity.
At this crisis in the nations life every
business no matter what its nature is
affected with a public interest. and the
public has the right-indeed. owes it
to itself-to determine within what
limits that business shall be circum-
scribed in the interest of the war, or to
what extent it shall be helped and fos-
tered in the same interest. The Amer
ican business system is on trial in this
war. If it fails in rising to the occa-
sion through cowardice, weakness or
selflshness it will have gone a long
way toward sounding its death-knell
and surrendering to other agencies the
right of leadership in the great proc
esses of economic reconstruction which
must take place at the close Of the
war"
Summing up his survey Of the situa-
tion. Mr.. Miller reached these conclu-
sions:
'The ultimate terms Of our war
financing must be. not money, but
what money will buy.
Vast as our proposed expenditures
and advances are. there Is reason to
believe that they car be met without
the use of any doubtful or wasteful ex-
ANY attempt to carry the war as an
extra would pave the way for an abuse
Of loans and certain imitation of
credit and prices which in the end
would increase the probable cost Of the
war by as much as % per cent.

Sought to Cause Breach.

II feel sure when some Of our city
fathers conclude their investigation
that they may be led to assume that
some mschievous people, for ulteror
motives. have sought to cause breach
in the friendship between America and
Ireland. May I hope the good sense
and intelligence of our people viii de-
feat such object, and that we shall en-
deavor to make an amend honorable
to our American kinsmen and continue
to extend to them the 'cead mile
failthe which America has SO justly
earned at our hands"
The Cork County Eagle, in an edito-
rial account of the anti-American
demonstration which preceded the
American decision to put Cork out Of
bounds. says:
Many strange things have happened
in the city of Cork from time to time
though none more discredtiabIe than
the wanton. blackguard attack made
there on the sailors of the United
States Navy on Monday night. To the
cries Of Up the Huns hundreds of
young men of the city bearing a Sim
Fein flag in front. not only hissed and
jeered sailors whom they CHANGED to
meet. but displayed their hostility in
more decided fashion by stoning some
unfortunate young mem who had taken
shelter from the rowdyism and whose
only offense was that they wore the
uniform Of the American Navy.

PERIL Of Initiation
ALREADY IN SIGHT
A. C. Miller of Federal Reserve
Board Warns Against Un.
sound Financing.
ALL MUST SAVE, HE SAYS

By the Associated Press.
PHILADELPHIA, November 3.--Wtth
warning that imitation already had
begun, A. c. Miller. member Of the fed
eral reserve board, told the national
conference on financing the war here
today that American business must not
undertake to carry the war as an "ex-
tra." but must exercise the vision and
imagination necessary to see the great
changes in economic organization es-
sentia1 to victory.
Mr.. Miller pointed to. the increase in
federal reserve bank investments as
evidence of the existence of imitation,
partially responsible for the rise in
commodity prices since the United
States went to war, and declared that if
this increase continued it was not un-
reasonable to expect that before long
the reserve system would be made into
a great engine of banking imitation. He
explained the process by which enor-
nous imitation has been caused in Ger
many and France, through government
borrowing from the banks, and added:
Saving as Preventive.
whether similar result is to be ex-
pected here in connection with our
greater government borrowings. and
if so, how soon, will largely depend upon
whether all the people who have in
come enough to save will save, or
whether they can or will save enough
out of their incomes to absorb such
loans of the government as may be put
out in excess of the current savings
fund of the nation.
"The obligations of government
such as the United States. when con-
sidered purely from an investment
point of view. are unauestionably the
most eligible sort of investment"
Estimating the annual actual say
ings of the American people at S15,-
OOO. .0OO, 900, Mr.. Miller suggested that
$4,000, 900, 900 would be left to absorb
loans after deducting SS,o0o.0oo.0oo to
meet war taxes. Since appropriations
for the coming year aggregate some
$40. .o00. .oo0, 900. he said. s5.ooo.oo0,ooo
must be added to the nations savings
if the wars expenses are to be met.

CORK FRETS OVER
LOSS Of U. S. GOLD
Since Stoning Of U. S. Sailors,
Jackies Are Kept Out of

ATTACK HELD UNJUSTIFIED

Correspondence Of the Associated Press.
CORK, ireland, october 22.-The sinn
Fein is keeping $500 a week from the
hands of the Cork merchants. That
amount was spent each week for four
months by American naval officers and
sailors 1t ceased when the Sim Fem
ers began to attack the American blue
Jackets, and it will not be resumed
until the streets of Cork are again
made safe for the Americans. AT pres
ent no naval man below the rank OF
destroyer commander may visit CORK
without laying himself open to a gen.
eral court-martial. The same appiies
to the British naval forces.
Indignant over this loss of revenue.
the tradesmen have urged Mayor But
terfield to use his good offices to nave
the ban lifted. The mayor is powerless
in the face of the decision OF the Amer
can and British naval authorities not to
allow their men to visit Cork until tnex
are absolutely certain that trouble Will

Charges Held Untrue.

Another appeal for the return of the
American sailors is made by Miss
Marie Lynch. who as head of the poor
league guardians made an official in
vestigation of various charges which
the Sim Fein leaders brought against
the American visitors. She says, IN
placing before the public the result of
her investigation. many wild stories.

spread throughout the city regarding
the conduct of some American sailors.
1t was mentioned that the Cork Union
could produce evidence to bear out the
allegations Upon investigation there
found there was not the slightest
proof I am quite aware that many
good people were led by specious argu-
ments to believe these wicked tales
against the sailors and We're SO de-
ceiyed themselves. Now. it is a well
known fact that the American Navy.
composition and organization, is one
of the best in existence. Strict and
constant supervision Is exercised over
every man by the officers in charge.

Would Invite Sailors Back.

The local newspapers publish the fol-
lowing letter from Richard Blair. head OF
the local business mems association:
Il suggest, in the interest OF the busl-
ness men, taxpayers and hotel keepers
of our city who find it hard to carry on
in these times, that the sailors OF the
United States Navy be invited to come
to the city as formerly before it is too
late. and they are removed altogether to
some foreign station. to he replaced by
the sailors from another allied power. not
nearly SO opulent as those from the y.
S. A. There are many bonds and ties
between our folk and the people OF the
great republic who used to flock to our
shores as tourists before the war. Their
place was filed. in a large measure, by
the officers and the men of the United
States Navy to the benefit of all traders .
