The present situation demands not that more money bo spent In tho purchase of lux uric,, but that we curtail as much as possible, with the consequent benoU clal contraction of credit. "Theroforo, I appeal to )ou as a fel low banker to do everything within your power to stlmuluto tho purchase and giving of War Savings Stamps and Treasury Savings Certlflcatos as Christ mas presents In place of the usual ncodless end oxpcnslvo gifts.
