Suggesting a remedy for the pre- ,ut tcmleiicy towuru extravagance, r, Hoover nays: "It is us imperative today as it a durinir the war, even more so. jut we should pructice thrift In all i form. "Every one of us should cut out rtrnvaitance nd waste; we should 3ve every possible five cent piece ,en thuuuh it were worth no more an a pontage stamp; we should put jr savings into fluvinjrs banks or :o (fovernment or other necuritien into homos and farms. 'Money that in wasted is destroy as if cast into a fire, and the evil suits are not confined to the indi- jluai's wan to and his or her family, jt are in fact spread throughout pcicty. This in the crime and dum- ?e done hy waste." Mr. llciover admits that it is dif- fu!t and "sometimes almost im- ?ible" to define waste. "Much as been said." writes Mr. Hoover, i.id written about silk shirts and Ik stockings. I will not con- mn the use of these articles, but those who wear silk Blockings uld bcc the millions of people in drone who have no stockings at all .id indeed no shoes, they would take s satisfaction in the sheen and '.tern of their hose." The article directed attention to Moapahle individual responsibil 7 and sets forth that thrift is first i matter of principle and secondly at "there is no chance of our in- jjidunl effort in the right diree rffl t-eing nullified hy the action of '.sers, and adds: ''About one-third of our people t responsible for most of the ex- "avagance and waste in this coun- It is a beavji responsibility at they bear.

The re port was requested by the Governor. The report indicates t,ni- in th, last year nion. ,,., i ,Hi -"'i nuvis i:oine under the act than in all of the three preceding years. In the last year the commission hn waged a campaign to collect delin- quent contributions to tha ncr-irlnnt fund and through the agency of a rpecia! collector has collected more than $200,000. On old accounts the interest alone collected from emnlov- ers is over $1(5,000. Another improvement in the admin istration of the workmen's conmensa tion act is the shorter time that now elapses from the injury of a workman until he begins to receive compensa tion from the state. The rehabilitation department of the commission, a new phase of the work,' is mentioned at some lencth in the report, and the work of the re habilitation stations at Salem and Portland reviewed. "In January of this year,'' says the report, "the number of statements Is sued equaled only 53 per cent of the number of audits received. During the months following there was a steady, gain in this percentage until in July the number of statements is sued equaled 112 per cent of the num- er cji audits received. This mpnns that in time not only will all the cur rent business be taken- care of.- but the Old business will bp rlnnnorl nn "Approximated 2000 claims are re ceived each month. When the work of speeding up the payment of claims was begun the average of undisposed of claims ranged above 2000. At this time the daily average of undisposed of claims is but slightly over 1100. This means that we now have an av erage of approximately two weeks accumulation of undisposed of claims studies made by the commissions show that more than 50 per cent of the claims are approved for payment in less than two, days after receipt of the reports substantiating the claims."
