Why the Savings Pledge?

During the present intensive War
Savings campaign we are asked by
the President and by Secretary Nc
Adoo to pledge ourselves to save and
with our savings to buy at definite
times specific amount of War Saw
ings Stamps. Why should we be
called upon to do this and why
should we do it?
We are called upon to do it be-
cause, as President Wilson says, this
is war of nations, not of armies,
and everyone in the land must do his
share. So far more than 100000
men have gone into the Army and
Navy and 100000 more are to join
before August /. These 5000, 900
men give themselves as their dona-
ton to the war. The remaining
100000 people left at home must
give something else astheir share.
This savings pledge gives the
stay-at-homes an opportunity for
service. We are asked to pledge our
selves to save and economic, to use
labor and materials only as necessity
demands, and to invest our savings
in War Savings Stamps.
The Government asks us to do this
because the amount of labor and ma
terials in the country is limited;
there is not enough of either to per-
NIT us to use it in the same free way
as we did in peace times and at the
same time to leave enough in the
markets for the use of the Govern
ment. 1t is purely a question of
supply and demand. If we use the
supply the Government does not
have it for war needs. And the
smaller the amount the Government
has for use the longer will the war
last. That is the primary reason for
the savings campaign.
But there is another side to the
question. The Government asks us
to pledge ourselves to save to help
win the war. 1t does not ask us to
give it anything except our co-opera-
ton. In return for our help we re-

ceive Government security which
pays us a good rate of interest.
If we do as the Government asks,
and as we should, this, then, will
be the result: Cd We shall buy
only those things necessary to main
tain us in the best of health and
spirits; CD by refraining from buy
ing unnecessary things we shall
leave in the markets for Government
use greater supply of labor and
with which to win a quick
er victory; 60 by not frittering our
money away on things that do not
make for efficiency we shall keep
ourselves in better health and in
crease our powers of production;
(4 by investing our savings in War
Savings Stamps we shall be putting
aside for those days which inevitably
come, if we live long enough, the
means to greater happiness.
