PLAN FORMED TO
INCREASE THRIFT

Following the lines that made the
Ninth Federal Reserve district the
best organized section during the val
period, a plan for s~ystematized thrift
effort has been prepared, according to
M. e. Harrison, director in this district
OF the War Savings division OF the
United States treasury.
"Our plan" explains Mr.. Harrison,
provides for thrift organization from
national headquarters down to the in
dividual effort OF a member Of a local
savings committees.
Two Big Objects in Sight.
There are two impeling motives be-
hind the savings movement: first, to
strengthen our national financial situa.
ton, and second, to promote individual
prosperity. To win the first objective
we might make work and save the
national anthem. And individuals
everywhere must hold their govern
ment securities and buy more, they
must strive to produce more and to in.
vest. In doing his part to gain this ma
tional aim. the individual will gain the
second objective.
THE National, district and county
organizations is the same as that
which made the Ninth district the best
organized district in the United States
during the War period.
"The county chairman is an i'm
portant cog in the organization ma
chinery and these chairmer are now
being selected for the 1920 work.
Local Committees important.
"The local thrift committee is the
most important element in the entire
Savings organization. Upon this COM
mittee rests the responsibility OF
establishing the study and practice OF
thrift. To transform an e~xtravagant
nation into a nation of savers, into q
nation whose people think before they

 He mentioned the wonderful person. nel of the overseas forces, claiming the men to be mentally, physically and

 At the conclusion of the brief high school address, and after greeting per- sCnally all present. the general and his suit left by the 9:30 train for Tucson. where he is to appear today.
 The unique experience of meeting a former fellow townsman was what the visit of General Pershing to Phoenix resulted in to c. H. Tinsley, the gen erals secretary. Within short time after Tinsley had left the train yes terday morning to take part in the parade he was "spottedn by Charles A.

 Praise For American Legion
 Discussing the American legion, the general expressed the hope that every man and woman in the United States. eligible to the legion. would join the membership. The legion's principles. he says, are of the highest and most patriotic order and entirely proper for any good American to adopt.
 Concerning the red menace. Gen. eral Pershing expressed the belief that immediate measures were necessary for holding 1t in check and that a definite program must be adopted for stamping it out. He believes that foreigners seeking citizenship should be given a definite time for learning the American language and for imbibing the theories of American government.

 The dining hall at the club building was crowded to capacity with repre- sentative men of Phoenix Governor Thomas r.. Campbell sat on the gen erals right. and Brigadier General Tuthiu was on his left. Justice A. c. Baker was introduced by General Tut hill and in turn presented the guest Of the day. In his address Justice Baker took occasion to refer to the Confed- eracy, of which he was a member, and to say that the Confederate veterans were among the truest and most loyal the country knows today

 Urges Preparedness
 The general paid particular stress to the need for keeping the country ready for emergencies in the future, while at the same time expressing him self strong against militarism and holding that militarism could never flourish in the United States He ad- vocates a six months military course for all male students, and holds that snch a course will make the students better citizens besides putting them in readiness for instant mobilization. The time may come. General Pershing says, when the country will be called upon to face a great enemy and when it will not have trained army of allies to hold the enemy in check while the Americans learn the game of war.
 Discussing the wonderful adaptabi1- ity of the Americans overseas, the gen. eral mentioned the military schools that the army maintained in France. holding that those schools stood unique in. the armies of the world. Every school had a regular military organiza-
