The United Safes has always
heretofore been a land of plenty
in fact a land Of SURPRISES. Up
to two or three years ago we
have always had a fair balance
to run on at the end of each year,
and had no need to practice real
economy. There was plenty of
every commodity and a reason
able plenty OF money with which
to buy it.
Now the only commodity Of
which the United States has
plenty is money. Of the things
which money will buy she finds
herself alarmingly short. Wheat,
meat, wool, coal-the four great
requisites of life-she is called on
to conserve and to use as sparing-
ly as possible. The serious phase
of the matter is that in all these
lines the erstwhile margins of
plenty have been completely
wiped out and in their place is a
positive deficit.
What is the answer?
CONSERVATION!
Waste MUST be absolutely
eliminated.
Production must be speeded up
by every means in our power.
And wherever a substitute for
eirther of these four articles can
by any means be made to serve
the purpose, it is the patriotic
duty of every true American
man and woman to make use of
that substitute.
The time for discussing the
war has passed. The problems
growing out of the war are
pressing for attention, and
should be met as live Americans
have always met the stern
problems of life-with smiling
courage and a firm determination
to solve them and solve them
correctly.
The war must be won, so let
every American say from the
bottom of his heart, eve can
win and we will"
