CREDIT MEN PRESCRIBE
 H. C.L. REMEDY
Secretary Tregoe of National Association Credit Men Ad-
 vises Greater Production

As a portion of its campaign against high prices. the National Association of Credit Men has directed letter to each member, declaring that the rem edy necessary to change present con- ditions rests in increased production and stimulation of personal savings. The letter was sent through J. H. Ire zoe, secretary and treasurer of the or ganization.
 Members of the association through out the country have been extending hearty cooperation to the Savings Divi- sion of the Treasury Department in the effort to popularize thrift through the such as Thrift and War Savings Stamps and Treasury Savings Certifi- cates.
 MT. Tregoe in his letter urges the adoption of a national labor policy which will not only recognize but con- pei good faith and honor in the con- tractural relations of employed and em. ployer.
 "The right to hire and discharge at will," said MT. Tregoe. implies the right to leave and strike at will. Both of these rights, at least up to the pres ent, are under control of natural laws and, when misused. carry a moral in- jury.
 "Let us quit strong arm methods. the autocratic procedure. the breaking of contracts. the violation of good faith, the ignoring of public interests. and get down to basis where men can and must live right in their relations. in- dustrial and social. with one another"
 There would be a deal less unrest if every man owned a bank account or government securities.

But this antiquated system was not
good enough for the modern ideas OF
Murish who found that the dogs of
the Pacemaking City had learned TO
see he and his net approaching. Con-
s%eauently q new scheme was de-
veloped. Aiming himself with a
double barreled shotgun Murish
started to hunt dogs in an honest-to-
goodness big game style. This
worked for a few days, the business
being good. During that time he de-
veloped wonderfully as a crack shot.

All went we'll until Alderman
Waters heard of the new metnod
adopted by Murish. Although the

with a shotgun he takes his shots at
CLAW pigeons and not on stray dogs.
The alderman decided that Murish
