Keep Business Up to Hold Waste
 Down. THE DANGER
 OF ECONOMY
By W. H. J. TAYLOR President of the Retail Credit Mems National Association

President of the Retail Credit Mems
 National Association
 There is more danger in economy than in extravagance A false idea of what we should do can do more damage than any wasting We have ever done. The man who overfeeds will spoil his digestion, but the man who does not eat at all will starve to death.
 This is what I mean by the danger of economy. We must all learn les sons of thrift, but let us learn them in the right way. It has been stated that the war cannot be financed un- less We stop waste and practice ad- ditional economies, giving the money thus saved to the government. This is patriotic appeal that will find an echo in every American heart. But let us use our heads. Wise economy will not starve business, and busi- ness depends on the spending of money.
 Government do not create wealth. Wealth may be conscripted. but even then subject to the will of demo- cratic people. We are all servants of the government, but the government is our servant as we'll. elected by us anu QePtIlQelll upOll OGA Cdl IT. ings.
 Wealth is nature plus mans pro ductivity. Money Is the convenient symbol originated by man to make the producing of more wealth easier, Nature gives us resources. Mans en- ergy puts them to use and mans brain develops a national business To run this business each man spends money. the sign of his work done.
 Nature gives us crops. cattle, min erals, forests. These we cultivate and make more productive by hu- man effort. From these comes the natural desire for exchange, barter, trade, commerce, business. And to help all these mans brain develops transportation, banking and govern ment. One depends upon the other and all need the free passage of money-spending.
 The more cultivation the greater the exchange, the greater the wealth of a nation. Stop any of these, or obstruct them. and you stop natural growth. We have an army in the field that depends upon that growth i and productivity. Let it go on and go on stronger than ever. Let each of us work harder, earn more, spend more. The taxes the government collects 1t will spend again-more earning by the people-more spend ing.
 Money wisely spent is not destroyed or wasted, but passed along, up and down. from one to another We can hold waste down as long as we keep business up.

GREAT GATHERING
 OF ENGINEERS
By HOLLAND


 New York January 29.-(Special)-On Saturday of this week the noble struc- ture recently erected at Dayton, O., for the purpose of serving as headauarters' or clubhouse, for that great body of en- gineers whose service is in the Miami valley of the Ohio, will be dedicated by appropriate ceremony. Some of the engineers of New York city who have gained high professional distinction have been invited to take part in this cere- mony as guests of the engineers club.
 The building, which is of most attrac- tive architecture and commodious, and which is conveniently situated near the bank of the Miami river, is the gift of Col. Edward A. Deeds and MT. Charles r. KetternG. No structure of this kind was necessary to establish a permanent memorial to the services of these two men, Colonel Deeds is now second in authority to General Squire at Washing ton and he is occupied with the details of the great aviation construction and Instruction upon which the government has now entered. He was, before he en- tered the service of the government, as sociated with MT. Kettering in highly im- portant manufacturing industries at Dayton. These industries reflect the in ventive genius of MT. Kettering and wise counsel and engineering experience of Colonel Deeds.
 These two men were also associated in the working out of the invention which when perfected by them, made possible the apparatus now commonly in use which is called the automobile self

Gus toners of these dealers then are to sign a statement for each purchase or sale, showing the purpose and declar- ing that no enemy or ally of enemy interest has any connection with the transaction. The statements must be filed with the federal reserve banks, together with weekly detailed reports from the foreign exchange dealers.
 The regulations" says a treasury explanatory statement. will put into the hands of the secretary and the federal reserve board full information as to the manner in which the credit facilities of the United States are be- ing used Through the power vested in the secretary and the federal reserve board to prohibit any bank or banker in the United States from doing busi- ness with any foreign corporation suspects of acts incompatible with the interests of the United States, a weap- on is furnished to the government which will be used to control any mis- use of our credit facilities and which can be welded with the necessary amount of vigor to accomplish the re- suits sought.
 The procedure established has been carefully devised so as to preserve the confidential relation existing between the bank and it's customers, except in those cases where suspicious point to the advisability of a detailed examina- tion"

 At the same time. an abun- dance of sugar was and still is locked up in far-away Java. as unavailable as unmined Gold-because ships cannot be spared to transport it.
 Every 5.0O0-ton ship which can be saved by giving England sugar from Cuba means the release of a ship which can make three trips and take a total of 5000 sol diers from the United States to France.
 If we can save the Allies from taking any Java sugar in 1918. we will release for transport purposes enough ships to carry over to the Western front and supply about 150,OOO to 100000 soldiers.
 At the same time, we will also be giving the Allies the necessary sugar. Thereioye it is to the interest of slaS common cause to save ships and send soldiers.
 The American Sugar Re- finins Company has put forth every possible effort to keep up the supply of sugar for the United States. even in limited quantities, and to stabilize the price to the consumer.
 In order to enable thewidext possible distribution of sugar so that all may have some suSar-we distribute Domino Cane Sugars in convenient size packages.
 These small unit cartons and cotton bags enable gro- cers to limit their sales 50 that waste and hoardins may be prevented.
 It will be necessary for Srocers and consumers to watch carefully their distri- button and purchases during the approaching period of re- adjustment. The refineries are now starting up and supp plies of raw sugar coming for ward, but it will take weeks, and possibly months, for the return of normal conditions.

Sugar and Ships

In the interest of the public it serves, the American Sugar Refining Company is earnestly supporting the Governments policy to regulate the supply of sugar so that it shall be sufficient for the needs of all-our soldiers, our Allies and ourselves.
 With the new crop of cane sugar coming in. the sugar situation is more favorable than it was month ago. There will be sugar enough, according to present indications. if extrava- gant use and waste are avoided.
The Birmingham age-herald., 1918-01-30

gant use and waste are
 War has disturbed the whole worlds sugar supply. It has not only wiped out any available surplus. but it has put all nations on a hand-to- mouth basis.
 The European Allies were the first to feel the pinch. Before the war. enough sugar was produced on the Con- tinent to supply all Europe. Today, two-thirds of this suSar-producins area is with in the battle lines.
 England, France and other nations have had to turn elsewhere for a supply of this indispensable food.
 And they came to Cuba the main source upon which the United States depends for its cane sugar. During 1917. Cuba sold and shipped to Europe nearly 100000 tons of raw suSar-one-third of its crop.
 In addition to the normal increase in the consumption of sugar as food in this coun- try. the nationwide move ment to save the fruit crop last season greatly increased its use.
 But this increased con- sumption of sugar has been a real factor in combating waste. It enabled the Ameri- can housewife to add to the store of the food of the na- ton at a time when fruits and vegetables were plenti- full and cheap.
 The sugar is not only in the fruit jar. but it has carried into the pantries of the coun- try a vast supply of fruit and vegetables which would otherwise have been lost. Sugar itself is not only a food, but it is also the great pre- server of other foods.
 As the demand for sugar grew, both here and abroad, Cuba's supply was exhausted last fall. Every available ton in Porto Rico and other cane sugar countries was ac- quired. But this was not enough, and the shortage came.
