W . Y ou n g, Charles H. Babin, prssidsnt o f ths Guaranty Trust Company, recently announced that while the ings of the people o f this ft re the war had boon estimated at from $5.000JXMMMM to $4000,000,000, such has already basa ths growth o f the thrift movemoat that our sav ings in 1917 ora now estimated at from $14,000,000,009 to $16,000,000,- OOO, or nearly three time# what they were before the war, says the L iter ary Digest. An increasing amount of thrift has been reflected on oil sides —in the investment market, savings- banks, life-insurance companies, sSe. Mr. Sabin believed, however, «hat “ to carry a th rift program beyond the point of a rational tneraose In saving could serve only to doprsoo business, destroy velum, end create unemploy ment.” Business men and wogem rn- rn. would not bo able to lend money to the Government unless they could make money. Business moot earn more money in 1918 than It 4M in 1917, because the Government “ is go ing to need more money end increas ingly more money, before this war Is won.” He added: “ There must be discrimination, of course, between that which la cm tisl and that which is non assent But no legitim ate business which can make money wthout competing with the Government is non essential In fact, it is very essential, because ey is one o f the moot important mu nitions of war. And, it should bo re numbered, the people who earn the money in such business are among those who invest largely in the Gov ernment’s war loons and who pay taxes.” -- — ~. r This subject was recently discussed ■•long similar linos by s w riter in F i nançai America. W hile th rift is need ed to save money, food, fuel, and many commoditise used on the fight ing-lines and in the homes o f Allied I eople, this saving should not moon “ the adoption o f parsimony as a habit of life.“ Saving money ta lend to the Government does not mean that bmrt- ness men and Income misers;” it that they sould and their fom ilim of that they should bo penurious or nig gardly or avaricious In thoir burinem dealings or, most Bn portent o f ell, in their charities.“ The man who starves him self sr st T m . nt ths LOREN KNIGHT, CoquiUe, Or.
