Is to Inaugurate a new program where in Personal Finance companies will play an even more Import ant part in promoting general eco nomic Improvement-. - "Widespread purchasing power is the key preventative to reces sion." Mr. Valentine stated. "Economists and Industrial lead ers now realise that If families and wage earners are kept con stantly in the 'buyers' market without violent fluctuations pros perity can he kept in. operation. "Much has been said recently -on the subject of consumer fl- -nanelng. and it Is undoubtedly true that while purchasing power cannot be increased by lending in dividuals the money to buy, small loans can be used to mobilize and direct purchasing power more ef ficiently. Personal Finance dem onstrates to the worker and the man of average Income how he can obtain for himself and his family many of the benefits ot our modern lite by setting aside small amounts weekly or monthly to be applied toward the purchase of desired object. It is in ef fect a plan for compulsory and regular saving after a purchase has been made and while the pur chaser is enjoying its use.'" ing Sunday and the coming week
