of the strongest assets Of the al.
lied cause. Anything like a il.
nancial panic in America now
would be a real disaster because
the government would be placed at
a tremendous disadvantage in Sc
curing money with which to fl
nance itself and our allies.
All our people are united on
the point that war requirements
come ahead Of private considera-
lions, but we need not feel that it
is our patriotic duty to create all
epoch of receiverships and cripple
the business Of manufacturers,
theatres, artists, musicians, dress
makers, tailorsn jewelers., small
shop-keepers arr the millions Of
our citizens whose livelihood is di-
rectly or indirectly dependent on
sO-called non essentials. If an era
of receiverships is precipitated
through the dissemination of doc
trines of destructive econmy, a
popular misconception of thrift
will be created and the thrift
movement in this country will be
retarded for many years to come.
eve have made great strides
in the correct understanding Of
true thrift. We have come to a
full realization of the fact that no
nation of people can go along year
after year blindly Wasting their
resources and not come, sooner or
later, to a reckoning. We are pre-
pairing to teach thrift in our
schools so that future generations
may know the value of this vir-
tue, but the practice of indiscrim-l
mate economy now may jeopardize
the success Of this movement.
SIN times of war or peace, it is
the part Of good citizenship to bel

ening material resources and im-I
parting strength of character. The
patriotic thrift of these war days
means the placing Of national,
needs ahead of all individual con-
sideration. All of us stand on
terms of equality in war times and.
even though man can afford this
or that, he should not indulge in
it, if by so doing he is depriving|
the government Of things needed
for war purposes. But. it will be
most unfortunate if false prac-
tees Of economy are carried to
such indiscriminate lengths that
financial disaster, panics, receiver
ships and bread lines are created.
And it would be equally unfort-s
innate from the standpoint Of our-l
selves and posterity if such a con-
dition Of affairs were brought
about under the name of thrift.
Thrift does not mean tight-fsted-
ness Of niggardly habits. It means
-upbuilding- prosperity
the development af sensible
habits Of living. Mere money
saving is only one Of the attrl-
butes of true, constructive thrift.

avoid any SUGGESTION of hysteria.

"HYsTERIcAL ECONOMY"

That more harm than good will
result from the general practices
Of "hysterical economy" is the
opinion of s. w. Straus, President
Of the American Society for
Thrift, who voiced this warning
in a statement made public today
"Then tendency on the part OF
many of our citizens" Mr.. Strans
said, Ito practice indisciiminate
economy at this time is regrettable
because Of the danger Of injustice
to legitimate business enterprises,
without any benefit therefrom to
our government in winning the
warw. Furthermore. it is regret
able because of the possibility of
fostering a popular misunder-
standing of the true meaning Of
thrift.
"This condition, if it were to
continue, would tend to. discount
the valuable lessons in the sensi-
BILE practices of thrift which we as
individuals and as nation must
learn from the war.

money is just as essential in win

and guns. Any condition, there

Money. lying dormant, is cold

merely a symbol Of wealth. It has
no value whatever excepting when
in circulation or when used as the
basis of credit. Real wealth is
only that which money can buy. |
