It comes hack into all channels of business and professional activity very soon after It Is earned by the employee to whom It Is paid. In these extraordinary days of high costs, the payroll dollar la a boon to the community that Is for tunate enough to have Industries and payrolls. Oregon has no patent on the move ment to stimulate Interest in hehulf of home Industries. On the contrary, Oregon Is away behind In the big activities along this line. All over the country the effect Ih noticeable and the doctrine that Uncle Sam Is now preaching to "Hu I, oral Products" is being practiced with a right good will.

Millions of dollars of these bonds are being paid for In inonlhly Installments the term! Of which will run for many months to come. It Is all hut Impossible to estimate what this self-enforced economy will do for our people. Viewed morely In the light of the financial benefit to the different Individuals, the re sults must necessarily be stupend ous. Hut going further and con sidering the stabilizing effect upon the nation as a whole the result as HumcH the proportions of an econom ical revolution. No nation of people ever yet suc- led In building stable national I edifice upon extravagance. It mat- tern not how vast the resources, they niUHt in time succumb to the lavish hand. Only prudence and frugality can lay a substantial foundation for the national life.
