OVER-SAVING
Fly w. H. J. TAYLOR, President of the Retail Credit Mems National Association.


 President of the Retail Credit Mems
 National Association.
 Two much saving, like too much else, it can be overdone and thus be harmful.
 We tap the tree to get the maple uproot it.
 The funds that flow from the tree of national resource can supply wars demand and still leave the tree standing. Sap must be left to nour- ish the tree itself and promote fur ther growth. Without that precau- tion, the tree withers and decays. So with personal savings.
 Every man can draw off so much of his individual effort to be put to work to be marketed, to nourish others. This is the tapping of the tree, the syrup, that is put up in cans and sold--passed on, not hidden in the hills.
 But just as a man would be foolish to try to get all the sap by cutting down the tree, so he would be foolish to think of saving all of his money by cutting out all expenses, all flow of revenue. He knows that that flow of revenue Is essential to the growth of his own affairs. His own healthy tree is part of the verdant forest known as national wealth. The sap must run. the tree must grow. so that he may prosper and do his share in keeping the forest . fertile place and not desert.
 And his growth helps others. His expenditures help somebody's earn ing and. in turn, the earnings of many somebodies.
 There must be no corresponding but there must be no over-saving- no drain so heavy that 1t will ex- hauAt the sap, kill the tree. deplete the fore4k
 Produce! Save wisely. Spend freely.
 Put your savings to work. and spend so that your savings and your spending keep others busy-kesp oth- CTS earning and spending.
 Where all are producing. there can be no shortage. Where all are busy all are happy.
 Do not overdo it. Do not waste by corresponding. Do not skimp by over-saving.

ADMINISTRATION WILL FIGHT ANY
 RAISE IN WHEAT
Kansas Congressman's Bill Would Upset Entire Plan of Food Price Control,
 It Is Said

Washington, February 2L-The full in- fluence of the administration will be used if necessary to prevent enactment of bills pending in Congress to increase the price of wheat.
 This became known last night from au- thoritative sources. Opposition to the measures, another of which was intro duced today by Representative Helver- ing of Kansas is based on the ground that their passage would upset the en- tire wheat and bread programme of the food administration, worked out in great detail, and that President Wilson already has full authority to readjust the price if it is found advisable.
 Wheat is selling now on a basis of s2.20 a bushel and the price is maintained by heavy government purchases for the army and navy and for the allies. The food administration has worked out a scale of profits for millers and distribu- tors of flour on this basis and bread is selling at fixed prices.
 In enacting the food control law, Con- gress placed an arbitrary minimum price of g bushel on next seasons crop. This is the price that the bills offered seek to increase. The 20 per cent difference between the price of last years yield and this years crop was fixed in large measure to draw wheat from the farms before the new crop is marketed.
 Already the agitation for higher price for next seasons crop, food adninis- tration officials say, is checking the flow of wheat to the terminals and to the mills and threatens to stop it en- tirely. There is power under the food act to force farmers to release their grain and although the bills in Congress provide that the price shall apply only to the new crop, there is no way, offi- cials say, to prevent the seller from l. 1xI |. tl,o

STRIKING FOR PEACE


The military masters Of Germany
announce that unless the Russian
peace delegates drop their denlalc
for no annexations the negotia lions

striking by way of expressing their
,,rotest against the German attitude
at Brest-Litovsk.
