COMM .tNDEERlNG MEN FOR INDUSTRY

Charles ~. Schwab has been plac- ed in control of the government s shiphlilding program. In announc- ing that Mir. SchwIab would direct the construction of the badly need ed fleet of merchant ships. the white house issued statement saying that Mr. Schwabs services were virtual ly communicated"
 On the same day that the papers carried this story. there was lan- other telling of threatened strike at MT. Schwab's Bethlehem Steel company's plant at Bethlehem. 'Pa. where longer hours were put into effect 'in response to the govern ment's call to hurry up wal mater ials." The trouble arose over the de mand of the employees for time-and- a-half for overtime. Labor leaders advised the men to work as usual and await the action of the federal labor conciliation commission.
 There can be no quarrel with the men fer their demand for time and a. half for overtime. tho M'. SchWab and thousands of others whose ser vices were virtually commandeered' by the government are not receiving pay. let alone overtime for the hours in excess of eight they labor daily for the nations good How ever, the country has not yet become ill such dire straits that workers should not have pay and-a-half for oeertime.

---W. o. MAINTAINING PROSPERITY NTH ENATlON.

We hear Ia good deal these days ;,sout the necessity for saving. Some folks misinterpret this to mean they should hoard money. hoard food hoard anything that represents wealth. This is the wrong view We should save food by no: wasting The people who cannot afford to spend-those who do not earn more than enough to supply the'r wants should save for these wants by not wasting their money on gee-gaws, but the people who can afford to spend are doing public duty by spending, in any way they will.
 How could Uncle Sam ever get to- gether the money necessary 70 buy the arms, ammunition and supplies necessary to whip the kaiser if everyone in this country q,,it spend ing? There'd be idleness and pover- ty; factories would shut down, the hum of industry would cease, and the United States would b6 in a worse fix than the Bolshcvik have put Russia.
 One of the best articles on this problem appeared recently in the Rotary Club News of the New York Tribune. It was written by Arthur Woodward. who says:
 "A wise humorist once said: T save tip my money until it's all gone,' Looking Lack upon past per fcrnances, many of us must smile in complete sympathy with this naive confession. We. too, have saved until it's all gone.
 We have been cautioned to save from the time when our allowance was five cents a week and sunday school money We have meant to save always We have even had a suspicion that we were saving. Then, suddenly, the savings bank is empty. We know not why or how.
 The rainy day has been held up to all of us as a deathless bugaboO, which stalks through the ages, menacing all. evading none. The rainy day is what we are thinking of when we take the money we want to spend for a. book, watch, a piano, or an automobile--and put it in the bank. And even if the

 INSURANCE Service Unexcelled. R. H. M. MILLS & SONS

rainy day never comes we have the placid knowledge that we are pre- pared.
 But there is difference between saving for a rainy day and hoarding for peaceful one.
 "The war has profited many. Men whose manuel labor brought them little more than the provel bial crust of bread in years gone by, today, by that same labor, are able to afford Ia talking machine, a surburban lot, or even a flivver. Men whose parti- cular business has been an atroDhied branch on the tree of commerce, have had an influx Of orders which have simply swamped them.
 "To save this country from a, fi- narcial panic and subsequent '5usi- ness depression which would prove fatal under the existing conditions, it is necessary to put that money in circulation. It must not be hOarded!
 'It is legitimate to make unex- Ipected money. It is legitimate to save some of it sIo guard against future discomfort. But it is decid- edly illegitimate to cornar currency Or merchandise at this critical pe- riod
 "Get busy and circulate your money. This is no time to have a one way pocket If your profits warrant it, be as profligate as your nerve permits Paint your house. The painter needs the money and will sing your praises.
 Buy new piano and send your old one to cue of the camps. Ride in taxis Even though you suspect the chauffeur's being a thus, he may have g wife and eight children to support.
 Buy generously of things not needed on the other side--the shop Keepers rent is the same, if not in creased. Spruce up your wardrobe Perhaps the designer, the tuttonhole maker and the tailor are too old to enlist or learn a new trade. "Circulate your money. Hell people to smile. Don't compel then to weep And if you caa forse1 about the rainy day. Because if there ever comes a day rainer than this one, God help us all It is the worlds Rainy Day!
 '.Keep moving yourself. And kcel your money moving. That's what is going to make the kaiser move froa I Berlin to Bondage!' N S. S.-@ In the present war masls of tho people who began it were in th' | background before it goi two year: old. But the war won't really eni
