BARUCH PLAN IN
WAR INDUSTRY.
Holland Tells How Head Of
Board Managed
Matters.

One of the problems which Ber-
nard Baruch found some difacuity
at first in solving is associated with
the present high development OF re-
Factories. He appears to have
mastered lthe problem and he has
done II in a manner which will be
recognized by the ablest men of
science, men who are not 'hide-bound
theorists or slaves of precedent. as
the only way in which a satisfac-
tory solution of the problem could
have been obtained.
Refactories do not suggest any
sensational or dramatic activities to
the people and, yet they constitute
the most important of the acces-
sories which make II possible to
manufacture steel and other commo-
dities which are OF the utmost i'm
portance in these days Of war. Re-
Factories are material capable of
withstanding very high tempera-
lures. Certain kinds of clay have
this quality, as well as fre-proof
brick, silica brick. and magnesite.
As a whole the industry was an i'm
portant one. in time of peace. The
gross aggregate money value OF
these products was before the war
not less than $50. 900 a year and
some Of the experts put the aggre-
gate money value of the yearly out
put at 100000, 900. The refractories
are as absolutely essential to war
work as are the steel. iron and al
Toys as we'll as the power plants
themselves. which the government
to Theeo r
plants could not run for a day with
out refractory material. sr' :-.-
Baruch Knew About Them.
When Mr.. Baruch was placed in
charge of the War Industries Board
he had some knowledge OF or famil-
iarity with this commodity be-
cause he brought within the scope
of his researches, when he was
actively engaged, as one of the great
operators upon the floor OF the stock
exchange. all knowledge which
would serve him in basing judgment
or forming an opinion respecting
the course OF the market. When he
went to Washington, having been
placed in authority over the War
Industries Board. one OF the sub
jects to which he gave his immedi-
ate attention was the high develop
ment of these essential accessories
in the production of war material.
He found that there were some. per-
.haps many, men who had knowledge
of this industry but their knowledge
was local, individual and did not re-
fleet national or International con-
ditions. For that reason they were
not. as a whole, as efficient and
thorough as Mr.. Baruch desired
those who were in charge of this
industry to be.
He therefore decided upon placing
great power of control in the
hands of men who were not experts
in this particular industry. but he
hoped to find men of Intelligence,
of broad vision. capable of measur-
ing up the demands of the industry
to national and international con-
dition. They were not to be slayes
of precedent. They were to be able
to go back to basic principles and
then work out their plans to the
satisfaction of Mr.. Baruch.

whom he had earlier known well, and

Milo Maize Meal Becoming Staple.


 Milo maize meal is the latest substitute for wheat flour to be placed on the Phoenix market and if the ambitions of Mrs. Mary Pritner Lockwood, direct or of economics of the Univer- sity of Arizona are realized it will play an important part in the food conservation plans of Arizona daring the4coming year.
 Two sacks of the new maize product ground by Fred. Tait on his ranch near Phoenix were placed with Phoenix grocery concerns yesterday and an effort will be made to maintain sup ply. At Tucson the mills are planning to place special ma chinery for the manufacture of the new product for human con sumption.
 Mrs. Lockwood has a number of milo maize receipts which she will be glad to furnish house wives on application. Letters of inquiry should be addressed to her, care of the University of Arizona, Tucson, and should en- close self addressed envelope. Yuma Sun.

In a recent communication to Secretary of War Baker, the commander of the American Ex- peditionary Forces said:
 "There has never been a sim. liar body of men to lead as clean lives as our American soldiers in France They have entered this war with the highest devo ton to duty and with no other idea than to perform these duties in most efficient manner possi ble. They fully realize their obligation to their own people, their friends, and the country. A rigid program of instruction is carried cut daily with tradi tional American enthusiasm. Engaged in healthy, interesting exercises in the open air, with like trained athletes, are ready for their tasks. Forbidden the use of strong drink and protect ed by stringent regulations against sexual evils, and sup ported by their own moral cour age, their good behavior is the subject of most favorable com ments, especially by our allies.

THE BREAD OF IDLENESS
memphis Commercial Appeal

memphis Commercial Appeal
With commendable cheerfulness
the men and women of America are
passing through a season of readjust-
ment. Our methods of living are un.
dergoing radical changes. Luxuries
that were once regarded as necessi-
ties are being dispensed with and no
perceptible suffering is shown in con
sequence.
The bread of idleness has lost it's
flavor The idler today finds himself
an outcast He is stunned by socie-
ty. The great principle of life, that
we must live by the sweat of the
brow is being impressed upon the
people as it has never been impressed
before
We are wrong to call this a season
of adversely 1t is not, but even if it
was it is well known that without ad.
versity man hardly knows whether
he is honest or not, for adversely is
the first path to truth. However, we
cannot consistently say that this is a
season of adversely; rather it is sea
son of self-denial. of frugality. OF

Strange as it may seem, the youth
who has heretofore enjoyed the bread
of idleness and has been content fol
his father or some one else to foot his
BILL has without being urged, uncon
sciously sought to make himself use
full. Idleness no longer attracts. He
feels the responsibility of the times
and also a desire to do something
even if it does not amount to yer,
much.
The man who is able to employ
himself usefully is never miserable
To be idle and rich during the wal
period is a reproach; to be idle and
poor is crime.
This new spirit which has been ere

Griggs Calls On
Florida Mayors
To Take Stamps

Jacksonville, Jan. Livery may
or in Florida is being called on by Di-
rector j. f. Griggs, of the Florida war
savings committee, to purchase, IN
his own name, all of the war savings
stamps his means will permit, and al
ter he has set this example to issue
proclamation calling on all loyal
Americans to invest all that they pos
sibly can in the stamps.
Judge Griggs believes that such an
example to the people in the smaller
towns will have splendid effect and
will start savings accounts by those
who have never thought of it before.
Everybody can spare quarter of a
dollar and after they have placed a
twenty-five cent stamp on card it is
almost certain that they will fill the
card up. BY that time it is also pref
ty certain that they will have created
an ambition to own more of the at
tractive securities and will start in
to get their full allowance.
1t was announced at state head
quarters yesterday that the corpora
tions of the state are recognizing the
splendid plan the government has in
augurated to encourage the small
wage earners to invest their money in
war savings certificates and to stop
purchasing essentials General
Manager H. B. Hoyt of the Jackson
vile Gas Company has started fifty
of the employees of this concern with
a thrift card on which they can place
twenty-five cents stamps as they can
i afford them. At the end of the year
it was pointed out by Director Griggs,
these employees will have accumula
ted few hundred dollars and will
not realize how they did it.
More Club Members
Six more members have been added
to "The Florida One Thousand Dol
/ lar War Saving Club" now being or
ganized. They are all from Tampa
and comprise the family of a Syrian
fruit dealer Judge Griggs was in the
office of City Chairman e. d. Lam.
bright when the Syrian came in with
his six. thousand dollars in a little pa.
per bag. The fruit dealer threw the
money on the table with the eXcla.
nation: take him all if it will be
used to whip Turks, no care I give
all to Uncle Sam for he good to us. y
He bought the full allotment for his
wife and for five of his children. He
also stated that he expects to pur.
chase the full quota for himself, max
ing seven thousand dollars that is
owned by his family. This gives
Tampa a membership of eight in the
Thousand-Dollar club, and the unus-
ual thing about it is that they are all
foreign-born, and not one American
in Florida has yet qualified for mem
bership.
Returns from sales of stamps up to
date show that Florida is rapidly ap-
preaching the hundred thousand dol
lar mark. AS the plan is cumulative
it is figured that the longer the cam
paign goes the faster it will grow, as
every twenty-five cents invested
means new seed planted, and that
this card will grow into full-fedged
certificate with other certificates fol

"Calomel is cathartic and very
