A HOPEFUL PROGRAM.

President Hardine's declaration ill his message te Congpess that the staggering load of war debt mus be cared for in orderly funding and gradual liquida ton, would indicate that it is the purpose o the Government to raise money through taxation to care Tor the bonds as they become due but ressae them and spread payments a long period years The President accompanies this declaration with another one that is also economically sound that public expenditures must be kept down to tn lowest possible point compatible with the public wei fare. By this program he purposes to bring about |; reduction in the enormous sums the people have bee paying in during the last few years
 While some progress has been made in reducine the cost of production in the country the. high taxe. and the high cost of transportation the President says, Fire preventing proporonae reduction in the cost of living If theses could be reduced it would result in fYther reducons in the cost of production and further increase in the capacity of the people tc buy, and that would more wheels to turn ana increased employment
 Sometimes il is cheaper 10 pay interest than to pay debts It Is easier to do so when people ear use the money prQdtally in business That is one reason why We have banks t is not good busness 10 compel the people 10 sacrifice the volume of their production and curta their commercial transaction. by borrowing money hieh rates of interest to pay taxes with which 10 pay on the Governments low interest bearing debt Ii would be far better to reduce the taxes and let the Government carry some of the debts at tue lower interest res as the Presi- dent 1nimates, and pay the National debt gradually
 The reduction of the cast or transportation will be brought about through reduction of the cost of operation, inst the reduction in tHa cost of pro duction will come One reduction will bring another

Saving the Copper.
(Boston News Bureau.) ]

\
 The action sof the two biggest factors in the cop industry, Anaconda and the porphyries in output, is dictated by economic comon sense To keep extracting copper, every pound of which meant loss and met with demand, would in fact be economic folly and crime. The step was a re- uctant one, but after it had become demonstrated that conditions promised no other aeviation; it imperative.
 An existing surplus of than billion pounds
 weighing upon an almost stagnant market and thereby leading to market price 12 stood 20 per cent to 50 per cent under the unit production for most of the mines is the kernel of that compelling condition. Until that demand shall revive. that surplus dwinde to toerabe proportions and that price again represent living wage for capital the shafts must idle, the ore stay un- wasted ill natures treasury.
 To dssiDatng natural resources or assets that in an eXtractfYe industry ultimately limit and to do this at the obvious peril demora2ing and bankrnpng great industry built up by patient ski II and large investment, would benefit nobody and would hurt every body else well if not as much as the immediate proprieors of these copper mines. Ii is to the consumers and the countrys interest that the industry remain alive and capable, with a view to future permanent supply. It is to the ad- vantage of no interest in the nicely chained of industry that the preceding interest from which it buys be made economic slave by protractcd deprivation of profit, or worse than a slave by protracted inhicting of unavoidable heavy loss
 It may seem hard copper miner seek stop gap job elsewhere copper shareholder forego dividends. But more grieyous visitation upon both would be the virtual Wrecking of the property and the industry. There would soon be, and for an u- definite period, job. to go back to; all hope ot investment return. would be swallowed in capital de tStructon. Stoppage salvages hope for botl .capital and labor within a reasonable period
 Factory machinery is senced when there are nc orders for goods Evenhe farmer in his slow turn about seeks 10 adapt his acreage to calculated de mand and return, And both those processes that permit practically endless repetition But the pound Of copper once dug leaves vacuum behind it. Fin ancially it must be amortized To continue 10 dis and sell it at going price that means so cruel : drop below eost-in contrast with the price career so many other things-would be sheer squander with out even the rakes pleasure of squandering.

ORGANIZE TO DISTRIBUTE VICTORY
 MEDALS.

To complete the issue Of the Victory Medal granted by the United States Government to Amerl- can participants in the World War, group of off cers and field clerks have been detailed by the War Department to devote their entire energies toward stimulating interest in these awards and facilitating their distributions The officers, twenty ln mum ber have been selected from the General Recruiting Service of the Army which has been temporarily discontinued
 Col Charles H. Martin who until recently has been in charge of recruiting activities will direct the work of the selected Victory Medal officers Under Col Martins supervision the country has been divided into six Victory Medal regions each in charge of an officer who gained familiarity with his region during the recent recruiting campaigns To each of these Regional Directors a number of officers and field clerks have been assigned and this organization will endeavor the entire country with the assist of National Guard Inspector- Instructors and of Hcers detailed to Reserve Officers Training Corps Units.
 Discussing the work which he has been as signed, Col. Martin says:
 Despite the efforts which made by
 the Army Recruiting Service issue the
 Victory Medal and notwithstanding the
 hearty cooperation of the American Legion,
 Veterans of Foreign Wars, and other
 patriotic societies, the distribution of this
 award is far from completion. While it is
 estimated that more than 4000000 persons
 are entitled to the Victory Medal. the total :,l number %.tlius# far issued is less than t3 ;ss4:Tha War tDeparment has studied this 3 question and. serious efforts have been made I
 to facilitate. the issue of these awards and
 to remove everY possible restriction consist |" -s ent with a. proper valuation of the spirit and
 meaning of the medal It would be grave
 mistake for the War Department to make it
 possible for interruptions persons receive
 these medals, and it is necessary that the
 military authorities be morally certain that
 they given only to those who
 titled to them. This determination has
 necessitated certain basic regulations which
 cannot, in justice to the 4,000,000 veterans
 be waived.
