Economy and Then Economy.

Corporations owe much OF their sue
cess to their ability to prune the over
head charges and have been from time
to time criticised for skimp!ng here and
there. but the ice interests apparently
consider every knock a boost, for as a
result OF request by the Federal au-
thorities to conserve fuel and labor they
have under consideration further econo-
mics that will bring about the desired
results. Through coordina ton OF the in
terests Of the manufa cturers and dealers
the ice manufacturers hope to eliminate
much waste that results: for instance,
from the harvesting OF an unnecessary
amount of natural ice. There is harvested
annually in the Hudson River approx
mately 100000 tons OF ice. or this 40
per cent is lost through melting. Dur
ing the extremely hot weather 1t is nee
essary to draw upon the natural supply
to the extent OF 100000 tons. and deal
ers In natural Ice say they must dispose
OF these 100000 tons at a price sufficient
to cover the cost OF cutting handling and
storing the 100000 tons. It is, there
fore. contended that regulation OF the
natural ice harvest would eliminate the
cost of unnecessary harvesting approx
mately 100000 tons annually. The pro-
ducers OF artificial Ice claim they are
open to losses also through the throwing
on the market of any large surplus of
natural ice. The problems OF shipping
and delivering Will also be taken up
and some announcement may be ex-
pected In the near future

Many explanations are being heard IN
the financial district as to why the
Fourth Liberty Loan is not going as we'll
as II should. One well to do Wall Street
man said there were undouotedly many
men of means who had not subscribed
as yet owing to the absence of Informal
ton from their respective banks as TO
what rate Of interest the bank will charge
them after the ninety day period ex-
pires andffor which Az per cent. inter-
est Is charged. This man claimed that
he Is now paying 5h per cent. interest
on a loan he obtained on third Liberty
bond and that some of his friends are
paying as much rs 6. He says a few
banks have advertised that ut the ex-
piration OF the ninety day period they
will charge for renewals a rate of in
terest one-half above the discount rate
OF the local Federal Reserve Bank. II
all banks would show their hand, he
said, there would probably be an in
crease in the volume of subscriptions, be-
cause himself and others are purposely
Withholding their subscriptions waiting
for their respective banks to declare
what rate OF interest they will charge
for renewing loans on Liberty bonds
after the first ninety days natures.

In some financial circles tho leather
companies are included among those
which will have 10 undergo drastic read
Justment with the coming of peace, but
It can be stated that this opinion Is not
entertained by the Hide and Leather in
terests. In fact, leather companies have
everything to gain and little to lose from
the end OF war conditions. and both
Central Leather and American Hide and
Leather are booked ahead many months
for capacity business. The fact that
some OF their contracts are for Govern
ment orders which may be cancelled
should peace be declared il not disturb
ing, for IL this happened II would give
these companies an opportunity OF TAX
ing up some of the private business they
have had to decline owing TO pressure of
Government orders AS far as raw ma
terials are concerned both companies
still have on hand large supplies pur-
chased at substantially lower figures
and are now making finished goods from
these cheaply bought materials.

leader yesterday. but the directors after
a protracted meeting declined to fur
nish any news that would warrant the

would admit was that the negotiations
are still In state Of progress and that
cables are being exchanged almost daily.
Not word was divulged as to the ac-
tual status of the plan. which has given
speculative Wall Street an opportunity
to play q remarkable game In moving

A slight revival of interest in the

which registered q three point gain on
a heavy volume OF sales. In fact the

Market Sentiment Mixed.

The confusion OF security prices re-
fleets fairly well the mixed sentiment of
professional traders and some operators
who hold widely separated opinions as to
what Is going to happen in the stock
market during the period when peace is
being discussed. There are those who
say that prices will decline severely be-
fcre there is any sustained advance,
while others point out that most stocks
are still selling far below their value
and are therefore In a position to push
ahead as soon as II is clearly seen thah
the present war restrictions are to be re-
moved. In the meantime the important
interests are doing very little, being too
busy with the Liberty Loan to bother
with stocks. This leaves the daily situa-
tion in the hands of floor traders and
professionals who trade stocks up or
down which ever way appears easier.

WRITE TO YOUR BOY IN FRANCE

One of the most touching appeals 1t has been our fortune to read in our long fife is the appeal made by one C. H. Carson. who has been on the front and therefore knows whereof he speaks. He says;
 If some Of the fathers and mothers could see the disappointed look their boys face when the mail is given out in France and hear him say. another mail and TO letter from home. I would rather have letter from home than one from each friend know
 think they would rest at night until they had letter ready for that boy wonder they know that their boy is depending them for love"
 We can readily imagine that boys feeling at the disappointment when he naturally expects love from his own people at least and if he does not get 1t there. the chances are he gats none at all. We can readily imagine that boys feel ing when just before leaving for the trenches, the nail is distributed but no letter for him from home. It is then that he must start for the line to do his bit for the folks at home with Q feeling that his efforts are little appreciated even by his parents. And to 9 certain degree, that feeling is justified; otherwise, how can we account for the neglect. Thus he starts for the front with an aching heart and possibly 3 tear or two, a sure indication of an appeal for love from home. For goodness sake write to your boy in France every day--if it is only few lines.

THE LOGIC IS CLEAR.

In spoaking of Hooverizing yesterday, a man 5aid: Don't you think that would it be an e4sy matter to save all and more than we are asked to save if we were sure the Allies or the needy of the war devastated countries were get tin@ it?'
 But that man does not evidently know that our Allies not begging to be handed our sav- ings they are buying and paying for the same. Having that much fixed in our mind, we can look into what we are told. The food administration tells us that every grain of wheat and every ounce of flour and bread saved now, is exactly the amount supplied to the men, women and children among our Allies. The administration sends every article of food to the Allies that our country can possibly get along without; prefer ably four meat an fat: all of which is paid for. Now if you de not buy, the retailer cannot sell you, and the less he sells, the less he will buy from the producer and wholesaler; thus leaving to the latter to sell to the Allies Is not this clear logic. Conclusively, Hooverizing in Ket- o'?ikan as well as in any other part of the coun- try may be said to be helping tlo Allies directly
