ENCOURAGE USE OF SAVINGS

Crtczing assertion of Henry Ford that railroad
stockholders parasites unless they are engaged in
railroad operation the Republican Publicity Association
through it's President Hon. Jonathan Bourne Jr says:
81 will be a great misfortune if theories such as Mr..
Fords gain general credence and result in cessation OF
that character thrift which has made possible the ac-
cumuaon the capital necessary to establish large en-
terprses 1t is true that there exceptional cases
such of the Ford factory where or two indvd
uals start in a small way and build enormous en-
terprse without calling their assistance the small saw
ings of large numbers of who invest in stock But
on the the building of enterprises such as that
is mpractcable.
"Mr Fords theory is that railroad operatives only
should be permitted invest in the stocks of railroads
The that railroad employees have always had an
opportunity invest in stocks Their compensation has
been large enough that they could save money which
could be thus invested and yet small proportion OF
them put their money into railroad securities.
There are men engaged in many lines of business
who accumulate savings which they do not desire to leave
idle Their own occupations do not call for larger in
vesments The easy the natural and the desirable thing
do is to invest in some useful enterprise where
their money furnish employment to others and at the
same time leave free to follow their usual avocaons
Their purpose is not merely for their families but
to have source income and of support when old
age forces them to discontinue active work.
"a DOCTOR for instance, may have income OF $lOOOO
year. which we assume Mr.. Ford will not contend is an
exorbitant income, while his expenditures may be only
5000 year. leaving him $4,000 OF savings WHICH ne Has
no means of using in his profession What would
Mr. Ford him to with it? If he loans to farmer
and takes mortgage the farm he virtually becomes
astockholder the farm his dividends are collected IN
the form of interest Such use of the money might not
be desirable of the difficulty of reganing possess
of the money time he might need it. The cas-
er thing him to do is to invest it in the stock OF some
large corporation where his will help develop the
concern give better transportation service to the ma
ton and afford employment to large number of men,
Ir Ford will hardly assert that who saves his
money is not entitled to make profit herefrom For
many years Mr. Ford has been making profit on his ~
vested capital at far greater rate than ninetynne p
of the people of the United States able to realize
on their savings.
"If the investment of savings is to be considered
near-crme making economic parasite, then the
great majority of the people of country must dscon
nue their habits of thrift and spend their money they
it, let it lie idle in banks safe deposit boxes, old
tin kettles or other places less secure"
