Help Uncle Sam
BOUGHT TWO-THIRDS OF MIL.
LION DOLLARS WORTH OF
WAR SAVINGS STAMPS

Washington. = Uncle Sam sold
$134.23O.697.84 worth of Thrift
Stamps, War Savings Stamps and
Treasury Savings Certificates dur
ing 1919, according to a report of
the savings division of the treasury
department. Probably twice as
much was lost by less cautious in
vestors in fake oil stocks and SIM
liar worthless paper.
This investment of $4,000. 900,
particularly by persons of small
means throughout the United States
was made in the face of a wave of
high prices and extravaganza, the
like of which we have not seen
since Civil War days Economists
and financial experts consider the
figures of the sale of these humble
government securities as a hopeful
sign indicative that the country is
slowly but surely adopting the only
means out of our present industrial
and financial difficulties - rigid
economy. regular saving and invest
ment by every one, wage Garner
and millionaire.
Treasury department officials are
confident that the 1920 returns on
the governments thrift activities
will show a substantial increase
Renewed systematic efforts are be-
ing made to push the sale of the
securities through banks. postoffices
schools, and organizations of all
kinds. Following the advice OF
Governor Harding of the federal re-
serve board, the gospel of Work
and Save" is being preached con-
tinually, and the War Savings Sc
curities offered for sale as a ready
vehicle for the safe investment OF
saved earnings with Uncle Sam al
four per cent interest compounded
every three months. A definite ef-
fort is also being made to get into
the households of the country with
a family budget system to promote
savings.

London. May 3.-The strength and
resources of the United States and its
general position in the world economy
are such as to make America viz
tually independent of a service which
to us in our island home is a matter
of life or death a merchant marine.
Or take again foreign trade and
international finance. Before the war
Americans were not particularly in
terested in a foreign commerce. There
was no necessity why they should be.
Their combined exports and imports
probably did not amount to much
more than one-tenth of their vast
internal trade and of those exports
agricultural produce and products$of
mines and forests and fisheries OF
represented more than 10 per cent
and finished products less than so
per cent.
Roughly speaking. America in
1913 was still owing the place she
had taken in international commerce
to natures bounty rather than to
mans skill. There have been I know,
great changes since then, but l aues-
ton whether those changes will be
permanent
Americans no longer regard
foreign trade as a sort of overflow
from their home trade, convenient
way of disposing of their surplus.
They realize today that II is INSOFAR
ably linked with the prosperity of
the country as whole, with its
manufacturers as well as it's agricul-
ture and that a severe drop in ex-
ports must throw all American in
dustry out of it's stride.
But that only makes ali the more
crucial the question, whether America
is able TO hold the markets che en-
tered in war time. She built UP a
great export at a time when any
thing America made could not help
finding a ready and almost obliga-
tory market abroad, She had the
field to herself. All her Europea n
competitors were otherwise engaged.
However, she never showed before
the war as she is not showing now,
any marked ability to maintain her
self in free rivalry with the export
ing countries of Europe in lands of
foreign speech and ways. These are
the three distinct handicaps America
