DON'T PAY PREMIUMS

Certainly, IN order 10 help win
the war and a the same time
conserve family assets. YOU should
exclude the Snob factor from your
buying habits. You should. for eX-
ample. refuse To pay a premium
merely because an item has been
imported.
War IN the Orient cuts off silk
imports from Japan and may re-
strict wool imports from-AHstralia.
Two American inventions free us
from dependence on the japanese
silkworm. Rayon is suitable fabric
for apparel and Nylon is superior
for stockings.
However, wartime requirements
compete for SNnthetiCS also
Unless YOU are rcConciled 10
wearing rayon or cotton hosiery
instead of silk or Nylon. some re-
strained forward buying of such
items is Indicated
There Is also true Of silk cravatS
for men and also of silk under
things. but with civilization at the
crossroads these items will GER
