CAN WE COMPEL THRIFT?

Under the above title the western

Associated Companies of this city to
inaugurate a thrift campaign among
its employees. 1t says:
"An interesting story comes from
a group Of utilities In Kansas EN-

THAI the managers propose to make
saving compulsory. The plan when

employment the actual saving In a
tangible form Of 10 per cent OF each

saving may be invested In home
in bonds, stocks, building and loan
memberships, but the method Is tt
have the approval Of a committee
appointed to inspect books and de-
eide on the sanity and worth OF thu
Investment. Semi-annual inspection
is to insure that there Is actual ac'
complishment.
"This experiment will be watched
with interest. Many have been the
efforts to instill thrift through pre-
cept and many companies have
given their employees special. ad
vantages In buying securities o.
worth--some have even retained

new idea, however, goes farther; Il
aims to instill initiative as well al
thrift and one reaction ought to b.

idea Of deciding In what to plac,

Topeka, May Misrepresentation
OF farm interests In Kansas. Mis-
souri,, Oklahoma, Texas, Colorado
and Nebraska are here today for a
conference to plan for the better
wheat campaign which Is to be
launched by the Southwest Wheat
improvement Association, In the
middle western states. Invitations
were sent to farm organizations,
boards of agriculture, agricultural
colleges, and the farm press in the
six states to send representatives to
the conference.
The chief matter for consideration
of the meeting. in addition to gen.
eral discussion of methods OF the
campaign, is the establishment Of a
headquarters for the campaign and
the appointment of manager to
handle details of the movement.
1t is proposed that the manager will
cooperate with both wheat buyers
and wheat producers, to encourage
the buyers to pay better prices for
the high quality grain, and the pro-
ducers to grow better grades.

further issuance Of tax.exempt Ger
tificates. Estimates place the amount
of these issues last year at one BILL
lion dollars, while perhaps nearly
twenty billion dollars worth OF the
securities are now In existence.
Holders Of large incomes are putting
their money into these securities
thereby Withdrawing their funds
from usefulness In industrial lines.
The industrials, as rule, are not as
acceptable as the tax-exempt securi-
ties, to those who have great for
tunes to invest. Another reason for
the proposed constitutional amend
ment Is found In the constant de-
crease of revenues to the Federal
government from large incomes.

ELECTRIFYING THE FARM

Vi lllt luIn diOhF
! lines similar to those developed In
the factory In the last Is or 20 years
| Is predicted in the report Of the Rural
Lines Committee Of the National
Electric Light Association Of which
X. J. Long, superintendent of the
United Light & Power System is a
member. The farm now presents
much the same problem as the fac-
tory that period ago, says the re-
port,
Electrical development on the
farm is expected to be a most potent
factor in raising the standard OF
rural life Development of electrical
machinery is expected to be of spec
ial value in view Of the shortage of
farm labor, and the use of labor saw
ing devices In rural homes should do
much to simplify domestic work,
Electric companies must interest
themselves in developing equipment
suitable for farm use, the report de-
clarcs, just as In the past they APP
piled themselves to producing fac
tory equipment that would fit the
facilities of electric power The Rural
Lines Committee is now engaged in
u study Of the needs of the farmer
and Of the electrically driven equip
ment now available la the hope OF
assisting in the development of addt-
tional machines suitable for farm
service.
The heavy expense of electric dis
tribution systems In country dis
tricts, as compared with cities and
towns, and the attendant problems
Of financing and fixing of adequate
rate schedules, constitute the princi-
pal obstacle to rural electric develop
ment, 1t Is said.
Discussing the expense of supply
ing electricity In rural districts, the
report declares that many custom
ers are now receiving service at less
than cost. In many districts Of the
United States 1t would be necessary
TO build 20 miles of distribution line
to serve Is rural customers, while
In villages or cities one to three
miles would serve the same number.
In addition, costs Of operation and
upkeep are much larger in the coun-
try.
"The last United States census
shows there are 6,448,386 farms In
the United States, 100000 of
which are located east of north
and south line drawn along the west
ern boundary Of the Dakotas," says
the report. Approximately 9.000,-
600 electric customers are being
served In this country. There are
therefore, approximately two thirds
as many farm houses altogether as
there are homes now served with
electric service. Assuming the den.
sity OF population In the country Is
such that three customers can be
served from each mile Of rural dis
tribution system, It will be seen that
1000. 900 miles of distribution lines
win be required to furnish service to
these 100000 farms. This L. more
miles Of distribution line than will
be required to serve every home In
all the cities and villages In this
country" Only a small percentage Of
farms have electric service and there
has been little uniformity in the
method Of supplying such service, II
IL stated.
