NEW FIGHT ON COSTS

Chicago, April 25.-"Collar and
shirt" strike, aimed at alleged prof.
teering by haberdashers and laundry
men, to begin May 5, and continue 20
days, was announced today by CON-
mittee of Chicagoans. The commit
tee said it expected to have 10000 ad-
herents to the soft shirt cause in a
few days.
If collar and laundry prices do not
come down within the 20 day period
the strike would be continued the COM
mittee announced. The STRIKERS" will
wear shirts of khaki, cotton or any
other material costing not more than
$3.50 with collars attached the laun-
dering to be done at home.

mother around to the notary to, sign
the papers. The mortgage, like the
book, ran on forever. .4
next time new situation will be pre-
sented. The holder of it may mere
ly say that the interest rate must
be increased from to 8 per cent.
Where the mortgage was formally as
signed $500 in the family budget it
must be assigned $4OO. The home
owner, when thus informed will prob
ably run around excitedly for few
days, looking for 6 per cent. money
There are thousands of them in the
United States registering excitement
from this cause today. Some of them
may find money at the old rate, but
not money. Most of them will alb
sorb bit of financial atmosphere in
their quest and return hastily to sign
up at the advanced rate.
Or perhaps the man in business has
a loan at his bank, secured by his
note. 1t may be for thousand dol
lars or for ten thousand lie is US
ing his money in his business, or is
specializing with it, or has borrowed
it to waste in extravaganza.
Hard to Renew
He is very much surprised, one
morning when he gets notice from
the bank asking him to come in and
liquidate this loan. He wonders what
has happened that his credit is no
longer good at the bank. He franti-
cally and introspectively looks him
self over for sins of omission or COM
mission. He timidly goes down to the
bank and asks why he has to pay up.
The bank, six months ago, solicited
his business. Why the change of
front?
He is told that the money market
is tight. Call money has been up to
fifteen. Four and a quarters are be-
low ninety. The country is suffering
from imitation.
He does not know ~ghat all this talk
means but is humilitatcd by his very
ignorance, goes out and digs up the
money, if he can, and pays the note.
But the fact is that the owners
Of this money, have found that they
can make it earn more than it has
been earning. They can put it out at
a higher rate of interest than money
has been drawing during the past few
decades. They have been hiring out
this chattel which they possess for
Sc where they might be getting So.
Demand for Money Grows.
Their climbing interest rates are
due to the fact that the demand for
money is greater than the supply
More people are wanting to borrow
money than have none yto loan. The
borrowers are bidding against each
other and running the price up.
The treasury department is much
agitated over this situation. 1t ex-
plains it by saying that the world
formed the naDit, during the war, of
living beyond it's income. The gospel

riding along easily for Ave years or
20 years with no other inconvenience
than the intermittent necessity for
paying the interest. The budget has
been been adjusted to taking care Of
of the added expense.
But to the multitude who have ac-
customed themselves to carrying this
load of debt there is likely soon to
come an unexpected shock. Their
mortgages will be coming due from
time to time. Most Of these mort
cages were made for terms of three
or five years. In the days before the
war they were renewed almost au-
tomatically when their time had run.
There was little to do other than take

900 900 900 in boads and give them to
service men as "a bonus, the result
would be a depreciation in the value
of the bonds already out to just that
amount. The principle is the same as
in the case of the men who issued too
much stock in his coal mine.
The spell of typhoid fever Is over
in the national family and it is time
to retrench. The, nation is magnifit-
emily prosperous but at the same time
magnifcently profigate. Of it's great
wealth all the world is borrowing.
activity that was held. in leash dur
ing the war is working double shift
to catch up. 1t all costs money and
they go in the market and bid for it.
Every individual continues to live as
expensively as in the days of wartime
extravaganza. People borrow money
for automobiles, pleasures, luxuries.
All issue paper against existing ma
tional wealth. 1t is more than the
wealth warrants.
Bonds Come High.
From all sides comes the demand
for money. The demand is greater
than the supply and the old law
works. The Pennsylvania railroad has
new issue of stocks. that pay 7 pc"
cent. interest. Before the war it bor-
rowed at 1-2. The Bell Telephone
is putting out an equally interesting
Offering. The bonds of China or Great
Britain can be SO bought as to yield
above z per cent. Call money in New
York has been up to Is and 20 per cent
All of these demands are competing
for money that finds it's resting place
in American banks.
When the man who holds the mort
gage on your house has these allur-
ing opportunities to invest it at 7 or
s per cent. why should he leave it
with you at 6? When the bank that
made you a loan on your Liberties can
get a higher rate, why should it not
call in it's pittance to you?
The treasury department believes
that the road to relief in this situa-
ton lies past the homes Of the people
should cease to borrow. If the call
for luxury money from the people
were shut off, the supply would be

OF pouring out without stint, destroy
Ing, lending, spending, was 4 preached
anceasingly for years. Lavish bor-
rowing became national necessity, a
national virtue. The whole world
came to. spend much faster than it
produced.
In the lives of families there are
sometimes crises. Typhoid fever may
run through a poor family and re-
quire unusual expenditures for doctor
bills, medicines, nurses. The family
will spend at a rate that is entirely
beyondcits income. One often wond-
ers that the finances of such family
may go so far
But the crisis is usually brief and
when it is over the family goes back
to its modest basis of living. 1t may
even deny itself to nsrfeve it's losses.
The countries of Europe that were
in the war financed themselves beyond
the point where it would have seemed
possible. They borrowed from their
citizens, from America, from all the
world. The United States spent pro-
digious sums, borrowed from it's peo-
pie, preached the gospel of pouring out
it's wealth. IIs
Thus it performed the financial
miracle but it created madness for
spending, for borrowing. The nations
did not retrench' when the orgy was
over as did the family with typhoid.
They had grown accustomed to waste
to pouring out, to borrowing. The
people of the nations, and particular
ly of the United States, are still in
dulging in a profligacy never before
known.
Loans Based on Wealth.
The treasury points out the basic
fact that loans must Oe made on ex-
isting wealth. So long as the wealth
is greater than the loans, the securi-
ty is adequate, is made on sound
basis. when there is not wealth be-
yond the value of the loans issued
against it, those loans depreciate.
If man has coal mine worth a
million dollars he may borrow
amounts less than million at the cur
rent rate of interest and the paper he
issues will remain at par. If he is
sues $2,000,000 worth of stock against
his mine, his stock will go down to
| fifty. No matter how much stock he
issues he can not make it worth moro
than the wealth back of it.
So, when the borrowing of a coun-
try arc greater than it's wealth avail
able to pay them, it's currency depart
ciates. France, Germany, and Italy
have borrowed beyond the amount
warranted by their production. If they
issued twice as much paper it would
so depreciate as to have the same
value as the present amount. The
production of wealth is the sure way
to reestablish the franc and the mark
The United States, the treasury
holds, has issued as many securities
as it's production of wealth warrants
If it should issue an additional $2,-

BRACE AVENUE PAVING

While the paving of Brace ave-
nue., from Amboy ven to Con-
very place, as petitioned by the
Western Improvement Association
may not be provided for at this
time agitation in support of the i'm
provement again puts that street in
the foreground as a part OF the APP
proach to the new state bridge over
the Raritan river. 1t Is pointed out,
and rightly so, that traffic could be
diverted from the more congested
parts of the city by following Brace
avenue, now that Convery Place
has been practically established as
the Perth Amboy approach to the
new span.
With Brace avenue improved the
local traffic problem would be solved

structure, would be shown. Built
in the days when materials were
quoted at reasonable prices. city
officials Of today should be thankful
that this job was done some time
ago.
What action the Board of Alder
men will take in the Brace avenue
matter has not been definitely de-
cided. The city is running up a
large bill in repairing streets over
which a major part of the traffic is
carried. Smith and State streets,
both in bad condition, are included
in this program, following an ordi-
nance passed by the aldermen last
night. There is q limit to the
amount of money that can be ex-
pended so the Brace avenue job may
have to be laid ver for the time
being. But at the same time it is
reasonable to expect hat the paving
Of this street will come as soon as
the project can be financed. The
completion of the new bridge will
make that a necessity.

the bridge was controlled by the

it stands today is in more uncertain

there is relief in sight as work has
