CALLS THRIFT BIG
LESSON OF WAR.
Senator Asserts Efficiency Would Save PeO-
pie Of U. S. S6OO,OOO,OOO
Each Year.

| New York, Dec. 8.-0rdinary eff
ficiency in public administration
would save the people of this coun-
try 100000 a year, United
States Senator Charles S. Thomas,
of Colorado, told the Association of
Life Insurance Presidents in thrift
conference which began today. Sen
ator Thomas is a member of the
Senate Committee of Finance.
"The war leaves us legacy of
stupendous debt" declared Senator
Thomas. at will reach, if it does
not exceed, $35,OOO,OO0,000, or
twice as much as the combined debt
of the allied nations, including Rus
STA, when the war began. The an
nual interest upon this stupendous
sum will be 81, 4OO,OO0,000, nearly
twice the net total of the nations
annual pre-war expenditure. This
means vastly increased rate and
radius of taxation. The people must
bear the burden, for Germany can
not make indemnity. They will bear
it willingly if economy in public ad-
and the application of
every dollar to the public needs
shall become the policy Of the gov
eminent. They will not and should
not be content if the gross extrava-
gances of the past continue"
Senator Thomas declared that
American shores have been flooded
with mass of humanity apparently
unassimiliable. The immigrant col
onies have become national plague
spots, breeding places for all the ugly
disorders of the century" Disrup-
ton of the central powers, he be-
loved, would remove all restrictions
upon emigration of their people.

erected on this side of the Atlantic"

Officials here, while fully recogniz-

of the vast forces the supreme com

strategic designs, realize the fact that
the American army is going forward

the initiative to the allied forces.
Plans are therefore taking shape

It is now virtually certain that
Gen. Foch will have at least 100000
American troops to supplement his
allied armies before the present fight
