The Meaning Of Goods
and Services.

The following paragraphs are
adapted from British publications
urging War Thrift and the organ
ization of War Saving Societies:
When it is said that in the present
financial year the government is to
spend the specified amount of money
what is meant is what the govern
ment must have for purposes Of war,
goods and services valued at that
amount
The goods are the supplies requir-
ed in the shape of ships. shells, guns.
rifles. motors, horses, saddlery, food
and clothes for the soldiers and sail
Ors. The services are the services
rendered by the fighting meu and
by all who supply the various re-
Quirements of the army and navy.
These goods and services have to
be provided now. And if the eOy-
eminent is to have, in the enormous
volume required, the goods and SER
vices that need to be provided now,
civilians who cannot fight must go
without many of the goods and SER
vices they used to enjoy in times of
peace. This is inevitable, for there
ia not enough available energy and
labor in the country to produce all
that it required for the war. and also
to provide the comforts and luxuries
We used to enjoy when there was no
war.
In short, the needs of the nation
for the purposes of war cannot be
met unless we save and save by GO
ing without the things that are not
absolutely essential to the efficiency
and health of the individual.
There is serous shortage of labor
and materials and the army and
navy need all they can get of both.
The nation is now buying on a
very large scale and 80 is the civil |
ian population. At the same time |
supplies are strictly limited; inevi-
tably. prices are high.
All the things purchased have
used up labor and materialsf or their !
production, and when purchased,
more are required to replace them.
Therefore, help to keep down prices
by lessening demand. When we
save and lend the government, we
transfer our spending power to the |
nation. and what the government |
spends is substituted ror what we
have been spending. instead of be-
ing added to it.
Money spent now buys little. for
prices are high. Thus it -is common
sense to save till peace comes when
money will buy more than now, es-
pecially as the more we spend now.
the higher prices will GO.
Our soldiers and sailors offer all
they have for us. We must not use

unduly large. At least one entire car
load was condemned.

signments OF turkeys are two and
three day late in arriving. The con-
gestion is due in measure. it Is said,
to large movement OF troops west
