TO MEET LOWER PRICES
Survey of q. S. Chamber of Com
rnerce Shows Readjustment of
Wartime Methods.

Business men Of the United States
are cutting down their overhead ex-
penses to meet the public demand for
lower prices by various methods cal
culated to bring the efficiency of their
businesses up to a higher standard
according to a survey just completed
by the Chamber of Commerce of the
United States The department OF
domestic distribution Of the chamber
sent missionaries to hundreds of
business men and replies were re-
ceived from 1000. answering ques-
tions as to distribution costs.
The replies for the most part re-
port what has been done. but a final
question asked for suggestions as to
ment might help in lowering the cost
OF merchandising to a normal basis
A large number Of answers said. DO
something to lower freight rates"
About So per cent Of the business
men have reduced the number of en-
ployes and about one e-fffth have done
away with or reduced commissions
and bonuses. More than 20 per cent
of those who answered had made a
reduction in volume Of credits bust
ness. Some had shortened the time
on charge accounts, while consider
able number, or about per cent, had
heightened time on this class of busi-
ness.
Although there has been a consider
able reduction in advertising space
used. business men are seeking great
er efficiency per inch OF space. the
chamber reported. More than one
fourth Of the business men answer
ing said they had cut down advertise
ing space and there was an actual
decrease in the use Of circularizing

City Plans to Participate in One
Hundredth Anniversary of
Florence Nightingale.

Plans are being perfected for this
city to participate in the national
celebration Of the Tooth G"niversary
Of Florence Nightingale, Say IL. to
be known as National Hospital day.
Efforts will be made at that time to
concentrate interest on hospital fa-
cilties here and to encourage people

whom they know in hospitals. Those
without friends in hospitals are to be
urged to provide flowers. fruit, cigar
cites or other luxuries for friendless
sufferers.
President Harding has expressed
his interest in the work, saying that
Just at this time those of us who
OF national affairs are having our at
tention forced to the very great need
of eXpan nded hospital facilities by rea-
son of the requirements Of disabled
soldiers.
The local campaign has been placed
