4 Little Talk on Thrift
By S. w. STRAUS President of the American Society
for Thrift

Now that our schools have re-
opened, every possible effort should
be made to encourage school savings
banks. While much attention has
been given to these valuable agen-
cies of thrift work among the young,
they have never reached the place
of Importance that their worth has
merited.
The school savings bank system
first made its appearance in France
In 1884 and the plan was quickly
taken up by the school systems in
other countries. Nowhere. however,
has It ever achieved the success at
taind IN the land of its origin. In
1885 the movement reached Amer
lea and was first introduced in Long
Island City, N. Y. The system has
enjoyed a steady growth since that
time, but only comparatively small
percentage OF the number Of school
children in the country have be-
come enrolled as depositors.
1t is worthy of note, nevertheless,
that whore the system has been in
troduced It has invariably proved
popular with the children and pro-

Modern education which "devel-

Father Gregory acholz, widely
known Dominican missioner, who
preached last night to 800 men of
the Holy Name Society in the Ca

There will be no peace or quiet
on earth, Father Scholz asserted,
until the too prevalent agnosticism
and atheism are wiped out. He
spoke in the interest of the Golden
Jubilee OF the Holy Name Society,
which will be held in Washington
on October 8.
1.-THE reason for all the wide
spread unrest today is the lack of
reverence for God among the So

Father Scholz said that the So

made rapid strides since the World

its true light. he continued, and
their influence has been in strong
accord with the aims of the society.

TREATY Holds UP
NAVY SCRAPPING
France and Italy Have Not
Yet Accepted Disarma-
ment Program
JUNKING u. s. SHIPS
WILL COST $7O,OOO,OOO

WASHINGTON. Sept. 11.-CUnit-
ed Press)-Complete plans for scrap
ping the American battleships and
battle-cruisers doomed by the arma-
ment conference have been carefully
worked out by the technical experts
OF the Navy Department.
The order from the Secretary OF
the Navy for full steam ahead
on the scrapping program probably
will be held up until the last of the
five powers in the agreement have
definitely ratisfied the naval treaty.
England, Japan and the United
States have ratified and It is under
stood in official circles that France
will ratify the pact in the early au-
tumn. II is an open secret that
Italy waits on Frances action before
falling into line.
SO far the only steps toward carry
ing out the scrapping program has
been the disposal by competitive sale
of six OF the older battleships that
were included in the treaty list.
These ships were practically obsolete
and would have gone the junk-pile
route in due course, even had there
been no Limitation conference.
Similar action IS being taken by
England and Japan. the ships that
are being destroyed by them the
older ones on the list. that like our
own, had outlived their usefulness.
Passage OF scraping bill by Con-
gress gives the chief executive the
power to order the work of scrap
ping the doomed warships as soon
as the formal exchange OF ratifica-
tions takes place. Except for an
Item of s5.0O0,OO0 for payment TO

other necessary expenditures, no
funds have yet been provided by
Congress.

children generally make their de-
posits with the teacher who turns
them over to the principal. who, in

it is the general custom for the

However. the fact should never be

disposal of the vessels, however,
naval officials hope, will bring some
returns. This is true, particularly
siderable brass and lead in them in
addition to the steel.
In making plans TO scrap the ships
there are two distinct problems to
be faced. One of these, the sim
pier one. is the disposal OF the dozen
old ships. Regarding the disposal Of
these. the scrapping board recon-
mend that they be offered for sale
to wrecking firms for junk after all
equipment of value to the Navy had
been taken off. Provided purchas-
ers can be found, 1t is understood
that this means of disposal will be
adopted. In case there are no bid
ders for them. the Navy will have TO
undertake the work of cutting them
up or must take them to sea and
sink them.
While there have been tentative
suggestions from Germany, Swed-
en- and Holland that bids might be
forthcoming from abroad, the re-
cent failure Of the British to get
more than a nominal sum for
number of their old battleships has
a tendency to discount any optimism
in this direction.
While the old ships could be used
-as the British are doing-as tar
gets for the fleet. giving airships,
submarines and battleshlps all val
liable training, there is a feeling in
naval circles that the economic
waste in sending to the bottom all
this metal should be avoided II pos
sible.
Ships Now Building.
The second and more difficult
problem confronting the board was
the disposal of the ships now build
ing. Here the recommendation of
the board was that these vessels be
sold on the stocks TO the highest bid
ders TO be broken up and the scrap
disposed of. The practical difficulty
Of having wrecking gangs come into
private yards or navy yards even
probably will lead to the adoption of
a different plan. It is understood
that in the case of the four ships
building in private yards, the final
disposal Of the hulks will be taken
up in the negotiations over the set
tlement with the contractors for the
cancellation OF the contracts. 1t is
the opinion OF many officers that It
