ASK WOMEN TO
BACK BUSINESS
Believe 1t Will Help To Speed
Recovery of Business
in This Country
BOOST RETAIL BUYING

New York.-A "Women's Cru
sade," against propagandists who
denounce business, and in support
of local business, as a practical con-
tribution to speed recovery was
proposed by Mrs. Anna Steese Rich
ardson in an appeal to the women's
organizations of America.
Mrs. Richardson announced she
planned a series of surveys through
out the United States to bring about
a better understanding between pro-
ducer and onsumer-between the
manufacturer and retailer on one
hand and the customer on the other.
Her main object is to get women
everywhere behind local business in
stitutions.
I'm short, the aim," she ex-
planned, lis to persuade women who
control the retail buying in this
country, to study conditions in their
own communities and to speed re-
covery by becoming business build
erS."
Business Is Honest.
Pointing out that 90 per cent of
business in this country is honest,
Mrs. Richardson asks women to be
fair to wholesalers, retailers, ad-
vertisers, ETC., and not to condemn
all business for the ''sins of the un-
scrupufous 10 per cent" in a chal-
lenging message TO women in the
WOman's Home Companion.
AS a constructive move she sug-
gests study and support by women
through clubs and associations of
business in your own community,
business just around the corner
from your home, the factory down
by the railway tracks"
what the organized women of
this country need today" she de-
clares, "is relief from propaganda
and an injection of confidence in
American institutions, American ira
ditions"
Mrs. Richardson states she has
noted during the past two or three
years that conventions of women's
groups have been exposed to a
continuous barrage from various
sources all designed to destroy con-
fdence in the business of this coun-
try. The result has been "chaos in
the minds of women whose aim has
been to improve and enrich Ameri-
can life," she declares.
You women in organizations
have been listening to attacks on
American business institutions" she
continues. Have you ever made
any effort to hear the other side
presented by the men and women
who are working desperately to fur
nish employment, to reduce relief
rolls, to maintain the business credit
and reputation of your country?
Local Survey Urged.
Have you realized that your sup
port of local stores and enterprises
has a direct effect on your hus-
bands income if he is a lawyer, a
physician, a dentist. or a clergy
man?
I'VE, the people of the United
States, represent per cent of the
worlds entire population, but we
have more purchasing power than
all of Europe but together. Last
year we spent three billion dollars on
free education, which was five hun
dred million dollars more than the
rest of the world put together.
There is life in our economic sys-
tenn yet and there is hope for its
future.
when women denounce business.
our business institutions and our
business men, they are denouncing
their own husbands, sons and IA
theirs. who are the business build
ers of the United States"

MILLION TICKS TO
BATTLE FEVER
CARRIERS OF DREAD DISEASE TO
BE USED IN WAR AGAINST 1T
IN 1887 CAMPAIGN

Despised carriers of the dreaded
Rocky Mountain spotted fever, a
million crawling brown wood ticks
in glass tubes at the United States
public health service laboratory at
Hamilton, will be ground into vac
cine to i%noculate 5000 persons
against the disease next year.
This year the laboratory produced
enough vaccine for between 10000 and
10000 persons, less than the usual
amount because last winters severely
cold weather destroyed a large number
of the ticks which would have gone into
manufacture of serum.
DR.. B. c. Phillips said the problem
of the laboratory now is to obtain
enough guinea pigs for experimental
work. Guinea pig breeding pens now
under construction at the laboratory
are expected to overcome this diff
