MUST SAVE "a BILLION
People Must Be More Economical
to Pay War Costs.
Saving Next Year Must Be $6,O00,.
100000 Greater Than This Year,
Says tho War Board.

Washington, Sept. 17.-The federal
reserve board, renewing its plea for
wiser utilization of resources, has
called upon the nation to consume
$24, 900, 000, 900 less than it produces
next year and thus pay the years
war cost.
This means that America must
save Sc, 200, 0O0, 900 more in the next
II months than it did in the last year.
Only Two Alternatives.
Only two alternatives present
themselves through which the nation
will be able to make ends meet" the
board pointed out. Either there must
be more intense production or a de-
cidedly increased economy in con-
sumption.
while speed up has been the gov
eminent watchword, the warning will
be issued that the nation must look to
more economy for any increase in the
available financial resources"
Delying deeper into the economic
phases of the country's problem than
ever before the federal reserve board
says that upon the application of is-
cal and financial measures during the
coming year, depends largely the ex-
tent to which the taxpayers and con
sumers are willing to make their re-
sources the u of their govern.
ment.
Genuine Saving Vital.
Only through a genuine process of
saving can the government be made
secure in the financial program it has
outlined" It is asserted. At a time
when less capital is available for new
investment the need is most pressing
for concentration of effort on the part
of the solidly founded industries, the
board says.
Progress has been made in the cur
tailment of no%nessential credit, the
board reports. There are, however,
certain elements which have refused
to subordinate their private interests
to those of the nation. These must
be whipped into line II that rart of
the nations u is to become en
tirely free for uses, the government
says.
