ME lighting is over, but the need
for saving is not. especially that
sort OF saving accomplished by
buying war savings stamps. so
the government has decided
II is not altogether that Uncle Sam
needs the money. though the postwar
bills locm large. Father it is that the
nation needs TO conserve those habits OF
thrift that make for sound prosperity
ard good citizenship
The thrift stamp sale plan. as devised
by Frank Eanderlip. has been tried in
war and found highly worth while in
developing thrift Not only has it
brought into the national Treasury more
than billion dollars which probably
would have been spent less wisely. but
it has helped. along with the liberty
leans. to make OF some 10000, 600 -Ameri-
cans financial shareholders in their gov
ernmenf. as compared with about 500
tsfe governmen. security owners before
the war.
Stamp Sales to Continue.
Therefore. it has been determined that
thrift stamps shall be sold this year. and
probably for some years 10 come, not
by sporadic campaigns, but by steady.
definite educational propaganda which
will drive home into the most obtusely
eatravagant mind the fact that 4 saving
ration is a prosperous nation.
But FIRST. before discussing plans for
future thrift stamp sales, few facts

iating war savings stamps. BY way

Cool on Government Ownership.

The theory of government ownership
makes no strong appeal to banking
interests, A prominent banker dis
cussing that question said:
There are two supreme and ire
futAble objections to public owner
ship-politics and the universal disre-
gard of interest, sinking funds, de-
probation and renewal of require
ments. The general plan Ia govern
ment ownership has been to consider
only gross and net earnings and if the
gross earnings exceeded operating ex-
penses, the operators felicitated them
selves that they were making or saw
ing money. When it comes to interest
on securities issued by the munich
patty to purchase public utilities. that.
of course. goes into the public levy
and when it comes to renewals, the
most natural thing in the world Ia to
sell more bonds. This has been the
general process in municipal owner
ship. The government could no more
keep politics out of government-owned
railroads than it can out of the Post
Once Department or any other govern
inent service, and we are all satisfied
that private ownership can give better
and cheaper service than can any own
ership and operation by the govern
nent"

Washington bankers who give close
attention to international affairs ex-
press satisfaction with the announce
ment that the American group of
bankers invited by the State Depart
ment several months ago to particle
pate in the ,four-power loan to China
of $50. geo. 000 has received the assur-
anee of the United States government
that American interests in this mat
ter will be safeguarded. The an
nouncement that John Jay Abbott of
the Continental and Commercial
Trust and Savings Bank of Chicago
will be sent to China by the Amer
lean bankers participating in the
plan for the purpose Of making a
survey OF the financial situation, also
is received in Washington financial
circles with expressions OF satisfac-
ton. The following statement relat-
ing to the matter has been issued by
J. p. Morgan & Co.
The American group which was
formed few months ago has with the
approval of the State Department de-
cfded to send representative to
Peking to study the situation in China
and to report on financial conditions
there. No specific loan is under con-
sideration. John Jay Abbott. vice
president of the Continental and Com
mercial Trust and Savings Bank OF
Chicago, has been selected for this
mission and expects to start for China
