GIVE W. S. S.
FOR CHRISTMAS
IS U. SJPPEAL
Governor Calking Urges Gov
ernment Securities for Pres
ents Instead of Luxuries
Governor John U. Calkins of the
Saa Francisco Federal Reserve Bank
has written a letter to all banks and
trust companies in the Twelfth Fed
eral Reserve District urging them to
promote, wherever possible, the sale
of War Savings Stamps and Treasury
Savings' Certificates for Christmas
presents this year.
The increased demand for these
Government securities, the Treasury
Savings Certificates being similar to
War Savings Stamps In denominations
of $100 and $1000, is apparent from
the fact that the Federal Reserve
Bank supplied $60,200 worth of
Treasury Savings Certificates to eigh
teen banks in the district on Novem
ber 20, which is the largest amount
sold in one day since the close of the
war. On the face of the demand of
these eighteen banks and the in
creased call for the securities from
all postoffices throughout the Twelfth
i Federal Reserve District, it would
! seem that the Government's holiday
slogan, "Give a War Savings Stamp
'or a Treasury Savings Certificate for
CWistmas." is belne followed out.

an'H'lLeTJovernment is hoping that by
giving War Savings Stamps and
Treasury Savings Certificates for
Christmas gifts the district will close

for the year.
A portion of Governor Calkins' let
ter follows:
"The Christmas holidays are al
most npon ns. Everything points to
a tremendous outlay of money In the
purchase of holiday gifts, the greater
portion of which I think I am safe In
saying will be luxuries. The present
situation demands not that more
money be spent in the purchase of
luxuries, but that we curtail as much
as possible, with the consequent bene
ficial contraction of credit.
"Therefore, I appeal to you as a
fellow banker to do . rythlng within
your power to stimulate the purchase
and giving of War Savings Stamps

seems to me that the responsibility of
leading men's minds along the ways
of thrift and simple living rests to a
great extent upon the bankers of the
country and In asking you to push
the sales of Treasury securitlss during
the Christmas holidays, I am asking
you only to take advantage of an op
portunity to meet this responsibility.
In addition, Christmas posters car
rying an appeal to give War Savings
Stamps and Treasury Savings Certifi
cates for Christmas presents will be
distributed throughout the Twelfth
Federal Reserve District, and all
banks have been asked to Include a
similar appeal in their advertising.

i'Afa
Fresh Country Produce Being Loaded Into Truck for Qul-k Shipment In.
to Near-by City.
Our faulty distribution of food
stuffs and other necessaries of life is
responsible to a considerable degree
for high prices to consumers. Official
Investigations show that it costs as
much to deliver farm products from
railroad terminals at New York to 'city
consumers as to ship them by rail
from points as distant as Buffalo, or
to deliver a ton of coal In Chicago
as to ship it from the mines In south
era Illinois,
High Coat of Hauling.
On the other hand the cost of haul
lng products from the farm to the
shipping points and to take manu
factured goods back to the farm Is
double or triple whnt It need be. These
transportation costs at both ends of
the rail haul must be added to the
prices charged for farm and factory
products and the consumer "pays the
freight."
Rail and water ,haul are the cheap
est forms of transportation and there
Is no prospect of any substantial re
Auction of freight charges. The only
possibility of lowering the cost of
transportation materially lies In the

highway. Tin-re are tremendous pos
sibilities In savings in this direction.
Careful Investigation by the depart
ment of agriculture Inst year show
that haulngo from farms to shipping
points costs loss than hnlf as much
by motor truck as by horse and wagon,
even under present conditions of the
highways. Thus, the average cost of
hauling wheat by wagon was 80 cents
a ton for each mile, while tho cost
with motor trucks was only IB cents;
to haul corn by wagon cost 33 cents
per ton-mile as against 15 cents by
truck, and to haul cotton by wagon
cost 48 cents compared with 18 cent
by motor truck.
Trailers Lowtr Rates.
Even these comparatively low rates
for hauling with motor trucks can
be cut In half by the general use of
trailers, since the hauling capacity
of a truck can be doubled or even
tripled In many rases by towlngf one
or two loaded trailers behind the
truck, uslnif a seml-traller with the
truck.
