times as much to a veteran as the
cash bonus. The land and home aid
section offers him forty per cent more
than the cash section, if he applies
the money on buying city or country
home. We anticipate that ninety per
cent of veterans would accept these
options, rather than the cash bonus.
DULY those veterans in distress will
choose the cash option.
Our organization is offering it's serv-
ice through it's thousand posts and
100000 active members to organize
sentiment in favor of accepting the
more substantial benefits. We do this
in confidence that congress will fulfill
the promise of many members of both
houses that the adjusted compensation
bill will be passed at this session. We
have not the least doubt that once
the bill is passed, the ex-service men
will accept $500 in paid up insurance
with government loan guarantee,
rather than 81 in cash. This is es-
pecially true because the bill spreads
the cash payments over two to three
years in small quarterly sums. We
insist that the cash feature be retain
ed, because certain number of vet
Grams are unemployed or facing severe
family distress, requiring immediate
aid. But we will certainly urge every
veteran to take the insurance or the
home aid, which are worth much more
to him and more to the country.

Cleveland has made about 20 trips
and on Sunday made several land

makes most of his landings on
Grady's field west of the fair
ground which he considers the best
landing field in St. Johnsbury, but
even this would be considered an
emergency field. In his numerous
flights over the village he has tried
to find suitable landing field but
has come to the conclusion that
there is none.

Delaware Apple Co. is Big Achievement


The Equitable Trust Co. Monthly
prints the following:
Among the many examples of what
is possible Of achievement by the en-
ployInent of big cooperative efforts is
the. apple orchard of the Delaware APP
pie Co. in Sussex county. The group
of men who conceived the idea of this
project early realized that among the
things vitality necessary for the de-
velopment of a dependable and per-
manent prosperity for the fruit grow
ers of Sussex, was the necessity of
careful, constructive planning for the
future. AS a direct result of their
skillful culture and farsighted policy
in general, the orchard is now the
largest in the State. Incidentally it is
to note that according to
the latest statistics, Delaware, with an
of 548 apple trees to the
square mile, outranks every other
State in the Union.
It is reported that the holdings of

The National Industrial Conference
Board 10 East Thirty-ninth Street
New York, has announced that in con-
nection with it's studies of industrial
savings plans, information has been
obtained on an apparently drastic eff
fort made by public utilities COM
pany to stimulate thrift among its
workers. indicating the Importance
which some industrial establishments
attach to saving by their employees.
"a compulsory thrift plan, whereby
every employee is obliged to save 10
per cent. of his salary or lose his
Job says a statement from the board,
"was put into effect on July 1, 1922, by
a group of associated telephone and
light and power companies in North
ern Kansas. The plan affects more
than 1,200 workers. in establishments
the activities of which cover more
than a third of the State. According to
this plan, the mere saving of 10 per
cent of ones income is not enough,
and it's investment in some safe and
interest-bearing security is required
and is supervised by committee of
seven.
cat present, approval is given to
Government securities, building and
loan stock, or stock in any of the sub
sidiary public utility organizations, OF
investment in a home. Half of the
stipulated 10 per cent may be used for
insurance or for the payment of back
debts contracted before July 1. Gen
eraI officers of the company and GER
tain bankers constitute the committee
on investments. The plan has been ap-
plied to department executives for
over a year, and its success has been |
proven with them before it was eX-
tended to the other employees.
"The routine handling of the plan,
according to the Bureau of Public Re-
lations of the companies, is: The Saw
ings Committee keeps in direct touch |
with the employees by sending well
fare workers throughout the territory; /
these workers thoroughly explain the
plan, teach the use of the budget books
furnished free by the management,
and help the employees personally
where compliance with the require
ments seemed difficult The fifth of
each month, when the salary checks
are mailed, a card is enclosed which
must be returned by each individual
before the twentieth of the same
month.
This card states the amount he
has invested for that thirty days and
gives the exact nature of the invest
ment. The committee examines these
reports minutely and should any fail
Milford chronicle., 1922-11-10

to comply with the compulsory thrift
idea the matter is taken up immedi-
ately by letter or by personal inter
view. Any employee who fails to make
a report has his salary check withheld
until he has complied with the orders.
By compiling the figures each month
the committee can determine the ex-
act amount being saved by each de-
partment, and thus stimulate thrift
through competition among the en-
plOyees.'
"Of the success of the plan, an Off
cial of the companies writes the Con-
ference Board:
"'When the plan was first explained
many employees commenced saving
from thirty to sixty days before the
plans actual enforcement. Moreover,
we are mighty proud to find in the re-
ports that over half of the workers are
saving from Is to, 80 per cent Of their
income rather than the required 10
per cent. At present, it is authorita-
tive to state that the plan is working
fully 95 per cent and we expect to see
it in 100 per cent operation by Janu-
airy 1, 1928.
welfare workers report many in
teresting cases where individuals have
been aided by this plan. One wire chief
for the telephone company, upon keep
ing an accurate check on his income
and expenditures in the budget book,
found that in one month he spent |
$16.25 for soft drinks for his family /
and himself. This amount, he now
asserts, will be put into safe invest |
ment every thirty days. A power-plant |
employee insisted that he could not |
save 10 per cent of his salary, but it
developed that he had spent SIS to hire
a taxi to see a baseball game in
town; he, too, has learn
ed to save. A chief operator "a widow
with four children, is placing her saw
ings in a home which she has pur-
chased through the aid of the build
ing and loan. Another chief operator,
who commenced a systematic savings
plan several years ago, put aside
enough to purchase her home out
