The Thrift of the Franklin Car
Our Response to the National Call -

AS people, Americans have
~ so long been charged with
4 Awastefulness and extrava-
gance that we have come to ad-
init it as our National sin.
Perhaps the meanest thing that
has been said of us is that our only
idea of economy is to do without.
That, being a people of ex-
tremes, we can save only in the
most drastic and obvious way.
That our idea of reducing
household expenses is to dis
charge the help, wear our old
clothes and cut the table where
it will be felt the most.
That we must either waste
coal or shut down the furnace
and freeze.
There is just enough truth in
this Indictment to hurt.
Wasteul Economy Us. Consfruc-
tue Saving and Use
The call to National economy
ought rather to be a call to
National Thrift.
Here in the richest country in
the world-with nationwide
employment and prosperity, with
wages higher than they have ever
been in the history of the world,
with 935,000,000 acres of tillable
land and unprecedented returns
for the farmer-we can support
another hundred-million people,
whether in this country or Eu-
rope, on what America wastes, if
we only apply brains to our prob
lens, National and individual.
Motor Traffic Vital Factor
in National Life
1t takes no brains to practice
the economy of doing without.
A good example of this idea
East Oregonian : E.O. (Pendleton, OR) 1888-current, 1919-10-06

of economy is the man who
buys heavy, extravagant car and
then limits its use.
Whatever the times or condi-
tons, the Franklin owner knows
that he stands firmly on a thrift
basis.
That if all cars were as efficient
as the Franklin, America would
save Four Hundred Million Gal
Ions of gasoline and $192, ,000, 900
worth of tires every year-with-
out cutting one mile off the stu
pendous motor-car mileage of
the United States.
There is Needless Waste of
Gasoline and Tires
Thrift always implies a sense
of 1alues.
What is the mileage Ualue of a
gallon of gasoline-ora set of tiresi
Do you realize that all the
twenty-odd years of motor-car
designing has never produced
anything like standard of mile
age for either gasoline or tires1
That gasoline, worth fDenfy
miller and upward in the scientific
Hghf-qOeighf Franklin, drops as low
as nine miles and even six miles
in many another make of fine carr
That while the Franklin owner
is getting his ten thousand miles
from set of HreJ, the typical
fine car owner is getting only
five thousand or less1
Franklin OOners Haze the Facts
on Comparative Costs
Where the heavy car wastes
gasoline in the drag of its dead
weight-the Franklin devotes its
power to mileage.
Where the heavy car hammers
its tires out before their time
Franklin light inspiring weight

PRESIDENT DEMANDS

many others, and can be supplied at
once.
There are many other ways. Existing
law is inadequate. There are many per
teetly legitimate methods by which the
government can exercise restraint and
guidance.
Let me urge, in the first place, that
the present food control act should be
extended both as to the period of time
during which it shall remain in opera.
tion aud rs to the commodities to which
it shall apply. Its provisions against
boarding should be madtto apply not
only to food, but also to feedstufis, TO
fuel, to clothing and many other com
modities which are indisputably neees-
ssries of life. As it stands now, it is
limited in operation to the period of
the war and becomes imperative upon
the formal proclamation Of peace. But
| should judge that it was clearly with
in the constitutional power of the con.
gress to make similar permanent pro-
visions and regulations with regard TO
all goods destined for interstate com.

in the manipulation Of the prices by
the withholding of foodstuffs and other
neeessaries of life caunot otherwise be
effectively presented. There can DC no
doubt of either the necessity or the le-
gitimaey of such measures. May | not
