When he invaded the American lj home, and attempted lo tell the family what they had to do I .without, he got into trouble, lie says his critics insist that nobody who is anybody can get along on the allowances he ft has made for automobile, rent, clothing and some other f things. 'Mr, Babson says his sympathies are all with the i critics. Ho wishes they had more money for tho things J., they want. But how can they spend it if they haven't got it? ; .. It seems that 38 per cent of rill earners in the United t SUitcs earn less than $1,000 pur year. Thirty-four per cent ! get more than f 1,000 but less than $1,500. Fourteen per tent of the whole get as much "as $2,000. Eleven per cent 1 get between $2,000 and $r,000. Only 3 per cent of the total get $5,000 or over. ... . I :i II is finite evident, as Mr. Bubson'snys, thut if a family I spends too much for one department of life, it cannot have j enough for something else. Even where there are several j woi Vers in a family, raising the total income, the problem 1 is light there, incty-seven per cent of all, workers get i less than $5,000 iper year. ' This is astounding when one considers the stylo in which f the average family seems ii live. Mr. Babson's conclusion J is that "budgets are very little used, and many families arc gradually, but constantly, getting into debi." ..It is ! noniething to think about.
