see to it that oven the prongs bear
no platinum, and above aU. beware
i of the platinum wedding ring. Plat
inum is a necessary metal in many
industries closely connected with the
war. It is now five times more valu
able than gold. Allen Rogers, speak
ing for the American Chemical so
ciety, declared today it is "shameful
that personal vanity should prove such
a handicap to the government, and
that n -mora frivolous fad should de
prive chemists and manufacturers of
the proper materials to meet the de
mands placed upon them." irty per
cent of the platinum used in the
United States is on fine jewelry, ac

LORD RHQNDDA SAYS
NEED NOT run WAR
BRITAIN'S EXPERIENCE, HE DE
CLARES, HAS BEEN BETTER
FINANCIAL CONDITIONS
EXCESS PROFITS ARE LARGE
BritiBh Workingmen Have Received
Higher Wages and Spend More, He
Says, Thus Helping Tradesmen.
Londonj May 8. (United Press)
American business has nothing to fear
from the war. The profits in England
have been above normal since the war
began.
' Lord Rlhondda, president of the local
government board and a member of
Lloyd George's cabinet, in making this
statement today to the United Press
declared the American business man
from the small tradesman up to the
biggest capitalist can look optimis
tically to the future.
Lord Rhondda may be best known
to Americans as D. A. Thomas his
name before elevation to a title. He
is one of the world's captains of in
dustry, with interests in not only Eng
land, but in. France, Italy, Spain,
Russia, Brazil and Argentina He has
made frequent visits to the United
States his latest being one under
taken at the request of Premier Lloyd
George to arrange supplies for Eng
land and to obtain information as to
American business conditions.
Excess Profits Tax Great.
"I have never been inclined to urge
that America 'come in,' "Lord Rhond
da told the United Press today, "and
this notwithstanding the fact that I
was aboard the Lusitania when the
Germans torpedoed her. I have con
sistently believed that America would
do the right thing but that it was
America's own problem.
1 "Now that America has taken the
' step, I feel free to assure American
j business men among whom I have a
l great number of friends that possi
! ble fears for business disaster through
the war are likely to prove unfounded.
"Certainly it has not been that case
in England, except in isolated in
stances in some lines. The govern
ment realized $700,000,000 from its
excess profits tax last year. That
means profits above the normal before
the war profits. The profits last year
were $1,160,000,000, since $700,000,
000 represents the 60 percent tax.
English Labor Has Profited.
"Moreover, ast year's profits were
achieved with tut little evidence of
so-called profiteering. Labor obtained
I its due proportion in increased wages
j as witnessed by ability of the work
lingmen to meet the increased cost of
living and. at the same time spend
more.
"The latter fact is one of the rea
sons why tradesmen have not suffered
as perhaps they anticipated.
"Please don't misunderstand me
war isnt' a business any truly civ
ilized government should enter for the
purpose of making profit, but it is
one of the strange facts incidental to
this war that such has been the case.
Panic Need Not Be Feared.
"America, like England, need not
contemplate the wrecking of the fa
bric of its business life.
"America knows what hard times
periods are though fortunately the
wisdom of the new financial system
instituted by President Wilson's ad
ministration has obviated a recur
rence of such panics as those which
once periodically afflicted business,
A war such as America faces can't be
compared for its effect on business
with those former hard time periods.
