In the past ten or ii dozen years a great improvement has been nade, but as yet the field is hardly scratched. One of the best selling articles today is the clothes washer, ut the prices are still too high for the average home and the country is yet waiting for some Ford who with quantity produc ion will bring down costs so t hat the washer can be installed in oractically every home as was done with the sewing-machine. Dish-washers are also making headway and demand for power! refrigerators is increasing rapidly. Many new millionaires will be created when these machines are brought within the reach the average housewife. Meanwhile the science of kitchen efficiency is being develop ed along other lines. Experts are showing in model kitchens how steps may bo saved. It is estimated that in cooking three meals a day the jjiyerage housewife takes 2113 steps. . This is regarded as a tremendous waste. To make an apple pie, for in stance, the averago woman requires 200 steps when in the model jiitcen it is claimed,8G steps are sufficient for this job, ' Socially and economically there is no more important problem before the country than this of eliminating the monotonous slav ery from household .work. . 1 TH PLAIN PEOPLE'S MONEY N ALL the rest if the world there is nothing comparable to the financial power of the rank and. file ot the American people. In 5000 banking institutions of the country there is now going on a distribution of $190,000,000 of so-called Christ mas club funds. This money has been put by for months in small amounts each week to cover the depositors' Christmas shopping. v But that is not all there is to the national fund especially put by for Christmas put by for the Christmas spending of the gen eral public. In thousands of other banks depositors have been keeping Christmas items in reserve in their regular deposit ac counts. Furthermore, men, women and children- the country over have been tucking away in safe places both loose change and small bfll&for the festivities and joys of the season. ' The total of -all these Christmas club funds, formal and infor mal, could scarcely count les sthan a quarter of a billion dollars; J it might rurP'nWrer to half a billion of dollars. Besides those Christmas funds there is coming due on New Year's Day $025,000,000 of war savings stamps which in the great bulk belongito thp witge earners of the country. And that is not all the investment they have in securities of the country. They have great quantities of the lower denominations of Liber ty bond sand notes. Nobody knows what these total in dollars, so far as concerns the wage earners and other small investors, but no responsible estimate has ever placed the amount low in the hundreds1 W Millions ; it is very high in the hundreds of mil lions. And even that is not all the saved wealth owned and at the command of the rank and file of the American people. In the savings banks of the United States for 1920 there were 11.4:17, 55G accounts with deposits of more than six and a half billions of dollars. Incomplete figures for the current period indicate that these savings banks accounts now- total approximately 1 eight billions of dollars. With the deposits that small savers carry in the savings departments of trust companies and other banks the grand total of the American people's savings accounts is estimated to run now between ten and eleven billions of dol lars. And ther imore yet. It is in the form of the small share holdings wKkk.t)mployes as fell as general investors have ac quired in great porporalions like the Pennsylvania Railroad, the United States Steel Corporation and the American Telephone and Telegraph Company. Whether this is tens of millions or hundreds of millions of dollars there is no sure way of telling now, but as there are hundreds of thousands of such small in vestors on the stock books of merely a few of the great coin- i. : i II. l -it , lines ii is ras.v to see mat wim an average i only ten snares of such stock, 1,000,000 small shareholders would mean 10, 000,000 shares thus distributed, which at an average value of $75 a share would be three-quarters of a billion of dollars. In all those small savings and investments, therefore, there cannot be less than thirteen billions of dollars; there may easily lie more than fifteen billions of dollars and in value form that is almost reatiy u casn in, lor me man who needs or wants to ash in, at. sight.
