Tampa, July 30.-Three hundred

time limit Of the contract between
Hillsborough county and Davis &
Webb, contractors, for the compile
ton of the main highways to the re-
spective county lines, out Of the
SS75,000 bond issue voted near two
years ago. The contract went into
effect early in May, as that il the
date the contractors began construc-
ton.
Counting Sundays, holidays and
days that work is impracticable the
general supposition is that at least
Is months will be needed to COM
plete the roads. Not the west coast
road alone, but every road contract
ed for construction out of the $S75, 900
bond issue. Road work weather pre-.
vailing, the contractors hope to have
the west coast road completed in four
months. There's nothing certain Or
definite in the dates, though, and the
completion of the road depends on
the weather and the ability of the
asphalt people to turn out a due sup
ply of block.
Hillsborough will have reason to
nc proud of the west coast road in a
few months if the plans of the CON-
missioners do not receive setback.

THE NEED FOR THRIFT

Silas W. Davis, director of savings
OF the war loan organization Of the
Sixth Federal Reserve district, is i'm
pressed with the immediate needs for
more saving among the people, in
the economic conditions which con-
front the world today. Mr.. Davis
made this statement today:
THE reaction of feeling resulting
from the close of the war has I'M
questionably tended to increase the
disposition of individuals to buy and
spend with comparatively little ra-
gard for the eventful results of their
action. Possibly tho NEST important
immediate outcome Of this condition
of affairs is the over-estimation of
retail trade in luxuries and tho rela-
tive retardation of business in basic
commodities and materials for manu-
facture."
In other words Mr.. Davis wants
the people of this district to save first
and think before they spend. He
stated further:
THE world is confronted with a
unique financial condition. 1t is more
pressing in the United States than
elsewhere. Europe is demanding
credit in this country for the pur-
chase of goods materials, and labor
with which to rebuild its devastated
regions and to rehabilitate it's strick-
en- industries. Only from the United
States can effective financial aid
come. This country has already ex-
tended vast credits to Europe, and
has financed the tremendous waste OF
the war. The Federal Reserve Board
has estimated that new European
and four billions of dollars must he
cared for during the coming year.
"To extend any such vast credit ar
this, capital must be forthcoming
Europe may spend most of these bill
lions here, but our industries ant
commerce cannot be maintained or
credit alone. While they are waiting
for Europe TO produce enough actua
capital to pay its bills here, they mus
have capital on which to live.
capital CAN ONLY COME
FROM SAVINGS. Our financial lead
ers are agreed that only from tn
savings of America can we suppl,
the tremendous sums in actual casl
which must be forthcoming if our in
} dustry and commerce is to be main
tanned in full time operation, and |
prosperity is to be continued in thi
country. Every individual must as
. sumo the responsibility for saving an
for careful spending.
