The schools are the medium which
We should use to spread among the
American people correct notions of cap.
ital, labor, banking and thrift.
The elementary school is none too
early in which to begin instruction
along such lines. We are all agreed
that thrift should be taught in schools,
but to teach mere saving or accumula.
ton without showing what the objects
Of thrift are. is teaching miserliness In
connection with the teaching OF thrift
there should also be taught the func.
lion of banks. Pupils should be made
to see that mere saving does no good
unless that which is saved is used to
create more wealth. To that end they
should be shown tina. there is a great
difference between money which is
merely stored up in a little iron bank
at home and that which is taken to a
real bank and is put out into the in.

turn. In some of our large schools
there are school savings banks estab-
lished. These exist not only in ele
mentary but in high schools. but in
very few cases are any attempts made
to teach the pupils the functions Of a
bank and where the interest comes
from.

The Federal Government has
asked the Governor of the State TO

the larger cities in the Twelfth Fede-
raj Reserve District.

Gates as Christmas presents the Gov
eminent feels would do much toward
bringing prices of necessities back to
a normal level by cutting the demand
for Injuries, and would help to sta
bilize the financial situation, besides
starting many OF the recipients Of
such presents along the road OF saw
ing and thrift. In its Christmas cam
paign the Government has enlisted
banks. clergymen. schools. and fra
ternal organizations, and has seen to
1t that the banks and postoffices have
sufficient supply of securities on
hand to meet the Christmas demand.
Governor John U. Calklns of the
San Francisco Federal Reserve Bank,

War Loan Organization In the Twelfth
Federal Reserve District, points out
/ the benefits to be derived through the
general giving of securities of the Gov
eminent as Christmas presents In the
following excerpt from letter to the
Governors:
Economists are agreed that the
present exorbitant level OF prices that
constitute not only an economic but
social menace is caused to great
extent by spending spree being in

has raised prices generally to such
unheard OF heights that Christmas

ON FRONTIER QUESTION
Orlando Insists That Italian From

insisted upon by Premier Orlando at
a conference with President Wilson
Just before the council OF four con-

question. The Italian premier ASK
ed the President whether he did not
think it advisable to have an infor-
NAL exchange OF views on the Ital-
ian problem, especially as regards
the Adriatic, before it is presented
to the council. The President re-
piled that he srared this view, but
owing to pressure OF work had been
unable to personally study the Ital-
ian question. However, he prom
ed to do so.
Premier Orlando's suggestion at a
simultaneous settlement of the from
tier questions involved Joint peace
