cutiOn of the war
In brief, the War Savings Society
plan is this:
Employees of any office, store or fac.
tory sign pledge card to save Ger.
tain proportion of their incomes and
invest in Thrift or War Savings
Stamps.
Where the establishment is large,
separate societies are formed in each
department
The proprietor or manager signs q
pledge to purchase War Savings
Stamps to the full amount allowed by
law, which is $1,000 worth, maturity
value, in the course of the year. Other
employees sign a pledge to purchase,

maximum amount down to one Thrift
Stamp, or maybe two, each payday.
by the office boy.
A secretary-treasurer is then
chosen, whose duty it is to see that
the Stamps are on hand when payday
comes around, and that the signers
purchase them according to their
agreements.
One advantage, from the standpoint
of the employer, is the extreme sim
plicity of the plan. He does not have
carry" his employees, as is the case
where bonds are purchased on the in
stallment plan. He has no expensive
bookkeeping to install, for the deliv-

day is a complete transaction. When

money taken in, his responsibility
ends. There is no larger preliminary
investment. The employer can send

and get his money back practically
Immediately. The employer is not
stuck with the bonds his employees
have, in a moment of patriotic fervor,
or under compulsion, signed for and
later found themselves unable to pay
! for.
From the standpoint of the EN-.
ploye, the Savings Society plan
is even moresvaluable. It induces
people to save something and put IT
away for rainy day. The savings
can be-of any amount. but they must

NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. Il, 1918
OVER THE TOP.

1t may be several days before the
exact amount subscribed to the Fourth
Liberty Loan is known, owing to the
avalanche OF subscriptions which
flowed in upon the banks and COM
mittees late Saturday afternoon. But
there seems to be sufficient informa-
ton available at this time to warrant
the statement that the American peo-
Pile as usual, responded nobly to the
governments appeal and bought six
billion dollars worth of Liberty Bonds
with some TO spare.
The Spanish influenza epidemic,
which swept over the country at just
about the time the loan drive started.
interfered with the campaign. With
thousands of people sick, hundreds of
homes saddened by death, public
meetings forbidden and other restric-
tons in effect which interfered with
the prosecution of a vigorous cam
paign, the loan drive encountered hard
Shedding
The favorable turn of the war for
the allies also dampened the ardor of
many Americans, who got the impress
sion from the trend which events were
tlking abroad that the war was almost
over and that the United States would
not need the proceeds of the Fourth
Loan.
But the American people were in at
the finish. Notwithstanding the fact
that the floating of the fourth loan
required herculanean efforts to make
IL success, the result is satisfactory
and there is no consolation to be de-
rived from the situation by the kaiser
and his satellites if they hoped, as
they undoubtedly did, to hear that
the amount subscribed had fallen far
short of the minimum goal set at the
outset of the drive.
Bernalillo county as usual, covered
herself with glory. exceeding its quota
by considerable sum. All honor to
those loyal men and women who
worked indefatigably to make the loan
such a glorious success.

sible? What possible grounds for re-
duction in wages?
Moreover, while the purchasing
power Of the American dollar is now
low and may further decline, the
whole American people is learning to
make that dollar so farther. The
folks are conscientiously studying
their dollar, at the dinner table. at
the shop counter, everywhere. Not
only are they saving dimes on the
dollar at these points, but they are
determined upon saving through gov
eminent operations, such as control
of transportation and taxation of ex-
cesses and abnormalties.
However. scratch a pessimist deep
enough and you'll always find a ma
terialism. Nothing save faith, hope
and spiritual inspiration has lifted us
from the landing of Columbus starv-
ing, mutinous crew to our position as
the greatest OF nations, materially,
and a people so glorious spiritually,
that it gives its lives and it's wealth
without stint that people all over the
earth may be free, be fed and have a
chance to be happy and prosperous
as God Almighty intended.
We bleed, we sacrifice, we mourn,
in this war. but the nations peace
e
the Almighty's beneficence. and the
pessimists, the materialists who groan
over depression in the future, over
low wages and too much of food and
clothes, are but as the erasshopper,
the moth and the gnat.

FEAR OF THE FUTURE.

Commenting, very optimistically, on
the spiritual element in the economic
werld, Commerce and Finance, has
this to say:
by faith Columbus voyaged across
the unknown waters of the western
ocean to discover the continent that
we have inherited; by faith our fore
fathers developed it and established
here a government conceived in lib
erty and dedicated to the proposition
that all men are created equal; by
faith we undertook and are success
fully prosecuting a great war to secure
n world wide acceptance of that prop-
osition, and by faith the seemingly
impossible has been accomplished in
modifying the men and raising the
money necessary for that war.
"And now as we seem measurably
near the end OF the struggle there are
TO be heard the voice of those who
predict that long period of econom-
&c depression will follow it's successful
termination.
"They say that wages and prices
must decline, that great overproduc-
ton will ensue, that want and distress
will be general and that the costs of
the war of which the present excite
ment has made us almost oblivlous
will have to be finally met amidst
great travail"
How can peace possibly bring upon
us such disasters as low wages and
great overproduction?
1t is true that we will be paying the
cost of this war for a good many years
to come, but peace will find practic-
ally all the foreign civilized world
short of everything, with the United
States, the great producer and pro-
wider, equipped as no other nation,
with ships. This, to say nothing of
the fact that this country. as the great
creditor nation, will be drawing in
terest on billions of loaned money, di-
rectly or indirectly.
During our war period investment
in new enterprises of ordinary char
acter is almost at standstill. Tens
of thousands of factories and other
industries have been altered for and
devoted to production of war material
Peace means that these businesses
must be changed back to production
of peace necessaries. at time wher
the whole world will be demanding
such as never before in all human
history. How is over production pos

Germans had been driven out. It was

similar to Newport and Coney Island,
and entertained $4,000 visitors an

England and northern France.
