Spend A Little More

Thrift is commendable; everyone who can should
save something. But while eXtravagant spending is
harmful, too much boarding is equally detrimental
according to leading economists.
For several months there has been an unusual
percentage of unemployed in this country, as in the
rest of the world This has decreased the total buying
power of the public. But the Tightening of purse
strings by those who still employed and are able
to buy has reduced consumption to an even greater
extent.
What is needed right now in order to aid in re
storing normal conditions is liberal spending
the part Of those who have money to spend for things
they can really use and need.
At no time since the World War has it been pos
sibe to buy to greater advantage than now In spite
of this fact this country is again experiencing what
is really "buyers' strike The return of general
prosperity is impossible so long this attitude is
maintained by those who have money to spend.
It has been pointed out that the additional spend
ing of ten cents day by every of the 12O million
people in the United States would increase the
tiOns business to the extent Of more than four billion
dollars a year Of course, the unemployed can not
spend this extra ten cents day but millions Of peo-
pie could easily spend additional dollar more
day to good advantage and hardly miss it.
It is sound advice then, to say to those who can
afford it: "Buy what you need while prices are low;
employee little extra labor hat you can use to adVan-
age; stop hoatding and put more money into crcu-
atiOn
BY following this advice the more fortunate ele-
ments of CUR citizenship may do much to accelerate
the return Of general prosperity.
