AS chairman of the public group,
Bernard M. Baruch introduced the pro-

by A. A. Landon of Buffalo, and the
plan that a national board of concilia-

securities should be made in your
county and every other county in the
Ninth District.
Everyone admits that the Ninth
District Liberty Loan Organization
was a most effective organization. 1t
has, therefore, been proposed that this
organization be asked to conduct in
each county of the Ninth District a
one days intensive selling campaign
for $500 and $1,000 savings certifi-
Gates, of Savings Bonds" as we like
to term them. This meets with my
hearty approval.
Campaign to Help.
II believe by carrying on such a
campaign, our old organization will be
in a way perpetuated and will give
proof of it's efficiency for patriotic work
in peace as we'll as in I think
that such a campaign properly car
ried on in each county will help very
greatly in the sale of these securities.
Increased sales will relieve the
Treasury Department of just that
much financing work by the sale of

banks and will release just that much
money for industrial development. !
believe that it will result in calling
peoples attention to the value Of the
Government securities as an invest
ment and will tend to poplarize thrift
as a happy habit Moreover, it will
materially aid in the reduction ct the
high cost of living and decrease SO
cial and political unrest"
Is Your County Crsanizoa?
THE response has been fine" said
Mr.. Harrison. "Many Of the old coE1l
ty groups cannot be again completely
recognized, but where the Liberty
Loan .chair1nen and workers cannot
for one reason or another, do the &C
tive work, the War Savings Chairmef
will direct it, and with the co-opera
ton of all War Loan workers, will get
fine results"

tical and effective way of combating

cided upon an intensive campaign in
an effort to focus public attention on
these principles and, by a widespread
sale of Government securities, to in
duce savings and popularize thrift.
Produce More-Spend Less.
"The people of America must pro-
duce more than they spend before the
law of supply and demand car operate
to reduce prices," said M. E. Harris
son, District War Savings Director.
'In other words, they must stop ex-
travagance, spend wisely and say
To pound home this point is at pres
ent the most important part Of the
established program of the Savings
Division of the Treasury Department.
We will do this through the schools
and industrial societies, through our
personal workers and speakers in all
parts Of the district, through litera-
ture and the press"
Campaign to Be Intensive.
I'VE believe an intensive campaign
to sell Treasury Savings Certificates
continued MI. Harrison, twill do much
to emphasize the Importance of thrift,
to popularize the idea and thus help
to prepare the public mind to receive
the benefits of the permanent cam,
paign for Thrift education. Hence the
October 9Th campaign"
The old Liberty Loan County Or
CARNATIONS have been asked to take
charge of the campaign. Governor
Void of the Federal Reserve Bank has
approved the plan. A. R. Rogers, Dis
trict Chairman for four Liberty Loan
drives, has personally written each
chairman, asking his active participa
ton in the work. Mr.. Rogers, in MAX
ing this request, said:

and with the least possible disturb.
ance. We want to reduce the present
high cost of living and to get things
back on a substantial and prosperous
peace basis with the least possible
trouble and delay.
I'm order to do these things, it is
necessary for the people generally to
change their present way of spending.
People are still experiencing a re-
action from the forced thrift Of war
times and as a rule are spending reck-
lessly. l believe that one of the prin-
cipal causes Of the present high cost
of living is, as someone has expressed
it, "the cost of high living" If we
are to pay u debts and get back to a
normal basis, WI must all practice
economy of time, labor and money; We
must save and invest wisely. I will
not enter into an economic discussion
of the subject. There are undoubted-
ly many other reasons for the present
high prices, but I think you will agree
with me in this-that the only way of
permanently lettering our condition is
by practicing thrift.
Spend Wisely and Save.
"As you know, the Government
realizes this fact and is conducting a
nationwide campaign of thrift educa-
ton and the sale of War Savings
Stamps and other Government securi-
ties. In order to make this campaign
effective, it must be popularized. This
can only be done by inducing a large
number of people to spend wisely and
save. You know the majority Of peo-
pie will not do this unless they are
impressed with the necessity of 1t
and are induced to join with their
neighbors in investing in Government
securities. In this way, they will pre-
vent their surplus money from being
spent for non-essentials and luxuries.
For this reason, we are convinced that
