"In other words," said Rob ert E. Smith, director of the War Loan Organiiat.on In the Twelfth District "the people of California, Oregon. Washington. Idaho, Nevada, Utah and part of Arizona have added that much to the working capital of the nation and the West out of their savings, not to mention the tremendous sum they have saved by purchasing Liberty Bonds." Of course many persom who bought Thrift and War Savings Stamps have cashed In their securities with amaz ing shortsightedness, but the wiser purchasers are holding their stamps until they maintain their full matur,ty value. "Those persons who have cashed In their War Stamps or their Liberty Bonds and have spent the money have lost twice the amount they saved because, no matter what they bought, they paid nearly twice as much or It as they would have paid lesr than five years from now," said Smith. "Prices have risen more than 100 per cent since 1914. They will drop at least 50 per cent in the next few year and will eventually get back to the 1914 level. Now is the time to save." Smith, who is a successful financier, said: "We have high prices because of the expansion of credit and conee quent Inflation. We won't have lo prices until the people contract the currency by saving." Save by Invest leg la government securities -WS EAGLES FIGHT H. C. L. WITH $5,000,000 W.S.S. desire for luxuries."
