They Look to You

Statistics compiled by the q. S. Department
of Labor show that the cost of living has been
steadily DECLINING since last summer.
This means that other wage-earners, manu-
facturers, jobbers and retailers have co-operated
in accepting a REIMBURSEMENT Of their
prices, in order to bring them INTO LINE with
prices which have remained fairly normal
These wage-earners, manufacturers jobbers
and retailers, having done THEIR part, are ex-
pecting the same thing from YOU.
Indiana daily times. [volume] (Indianapolis [Ind.]) 1914-1922, 1921-05-28
No Real Reduction

And think minute of THIS point:
In effect, the man who accepts REDUC-
TION in the amount of his PAY, is NOT taking
a reduction in WAGES.
The LESSER amount of money still BUYS
the SAME amount Of observation-disclosures the
SAME DISTANCE in meeting the cost of iv-
ing!
So, in holding out for the idea of the "same
amount of MONEY" you are actually holding
out for an INCREASE.
And in accepting less amount of PAY you
are NOT actually reducing your WAGES.
And with OTHERS meeting these new con-
ditions fairly and squarely-helping to bring
prices back INTO LINE with one another, it is
impossible to think that ANYONE'S price is go
ing to continue long OUT of line.

Stability and Happiness

High prices ARE being READJUSTED.
There will be few exceptions to the movement
1t will bring new and STABLE level of prices
prices that bear the proper RELATIONSHIP,
one to the other.
Bringing low prices UP would ADD to the
cost of living.
Adjusting the high prices DOWN, brings a
proper RELATIONSHIP between prices, puts
everybody on an EQUALITY, brings STABIL-
ITY, maintains the purchasing power of your
dollars, and spells Prosperity.
For after all what you want is not MONEY
but what money will BUY.

Actually, An Increase

Perhaps you have been saying to yourself
that YOU are not going to ''stand for any wage
reductions"
When you insist on having the same
AMOUNT of money, you are actually insisting
on an INCREASE.

How 1t Happens

Now, how does it happen that you are ABLE
to buy MORE each week with dollar than you
could buy the week before7
Because the prices of many articles and COM
modities have been REDUCED.
Facts PROVE this
The statistics of the o. S. Department Of
Labor show that the cost of living reached its
PEAK last summer and has been steadily COM
ING DOWN ever since. And it is STILL COM
ing down.
MANY prices are L o W E R! FOOD
CLOTHES-for example
That is why your dollar will BUY more.

SAY DISCOVERY
CUTS AUTO COST
FIFTY PER CENT

Rome.-Through the invention Of
a gas generating mixture composed
of alcohol and a sulphur carbon
combination, the cost of operating
automobiles and all internal COM
bustion motors can be reduced one
half, according to the claims of Ell
gineer Sesti, who after exhaustive
experiments under the auspices of
the Italian government has just
completed a report on the possibili-
ties Of the new combustion.
The use of the new gas general
ing mixture pre-supposes the en-
ployment of special kind of car
buretor, which Signor Sesti has
evolved.
The experiments have been in
progress over a period of almost
three years, and were begun with
special view of lessening the cost
Of automobile fuel.
The new fuel has a density great
er than that Of gasoline in the ratio
of 925 to $50. 1t is urged that the
adoption of the fuel will consider
ably lessen the importations OF
foreign gasoline. Practically all the
raw materials necessary for the
new fuel can be found in Italy.
| The inventor claims that the ex-
haust gas is less obnoxious to the
lungs than the fumes of gasoline.
The use of crude alcohol to the
proportion of 20 per cent is en-
ployed in the fuel while the remain
Ing 30 per cent is taken up by the
! sulphur carbon combination.
