Gus buyers do not know how to &C
count for the slump, in the face of
continued light receipts, unless the
spectators are merely running il
DOWN. for their own benefit. Spot
cotton was worth Is IL cents in
Americas yesterday.

Need of Thrift

The teaching of thrift is be-
ing sadly neglected. During the
World War men, women and
children, helping to win the war,
began investing their dimes and
dollars in thrift stamps and Lib
erty bonds.
War necessity has passed, but
the need of the community is
ever present. The family with
savings account is usually the
family out of debt and facing
the future with a smile.
When times like the past few
years reach community devoid
OF thrift, the crash is great and
the time to cover is long.
In the home, in the school, in
business, in every walk of life,
more thought and more effort
should be devoted to thrift if we
are to enjoy our rightful share
or prosperity.
Particularly is this true in an
agricultural community like ours
and not only us but the entire
South, where savings accounts
are fewer than in other sections
of the nation.
More people have more mon
ey, more life insurance and more
sound investment securities than
ever before in the United States.
This country and its people are
a great deal better off than they
realize and infinitely better off
than the people of most other
countries.
Savings deposits in banks in
the United States now approx
mate the stupendous total of IS
billion dollars, deposited by a
little more than 30 million per-
sons. In 1914 the total of saw
ings deposits was 5 billion dol
lars, deposited by II million
persons. Savings accounts are
now considerably more than
three times the total of pre-wal
days while the number of deposi.
tors is quite a bit less than three
times as many.
This savings total. equal tc
more than all the money de-
posted in all the national banks
represent largely in the savings
!of persons of small or moderate
Americus times-recorder. [volume] (Americus, Ga.) 1891-current, 1924-03-17
SPENDERS

In February the American people
spent more money than in any Feb
ruary Of the past except 1920,
Nearly SO billion dollars worth OF
bank checks passed through the
clearing houses,
Thrift is wise, provides for the flu
ture. But spending is what makes
prosperity. With almost 80 billions
spent by checks and a lot more in
cash, money is circulating fast. In
this situation. there's no excuse for
any one not being prosperous. Also.
it means that good times probably
are scheduled for the next few
months at least.
