Keep the Money Moving (From Autocaster Service) The president of the American Bankers association said a mouthful the other day. “It isn’t how much money is in circulation but how fast it circulates, that counts,” he said, in substance. “One dollar will do the work of two dollars, if it moves from hand to hand twice as fast.” Money lying idle in bank is hot working. It is only when money is being spent that commodities move, factory wheels revolve, workers are kept on the payroll. In the reaction from an orgy of reckless spending, we seem to have swung almost as far the other way, into a state of mind which can only be called miserly. People are timid about letting go of a dollar for any purpose—and in communities all over the nation able-bodied men are ped dling on the streets or taking money from charitable or ganizations for the support of their iamilies. This is more particularly true in the large cities; the country regions and the small towns have not felt the de ression as keenly as have the large centers of population et everybody in the United States, broadl knows that money is not circulating as fast today as it was a year ago, and that people who owe money are find ing it hard to get cash with which to meet their obli gations.. That would not be the case if everybody who has some thing tucked away would spend some of it now for the useful necessary thing's which are needed and which will eventually be bought anyway. All kinds of merchandise are cheaper now than for years. To buy the necessary things now is economy. There is not a home in the land in which there are not some repairs to be made, some contemplated additions or improvements to be installed, some new furnishings required. To attend to those things now means putting money into circulation at a time when it is actively needed. Ten dollars spent today will do the community more good than a hundred dollars spent a year from now. We have said it before but it is still good advice. Take advantage now of the low cost of almost everything and arc“—1 the ‘L* house ’------ that will not cost do those little things around much but which will hel P move merchandise and put money into worker’s pockets. k The 1931 Model Electric Radio i50 - Compiete vi ALNUT CABINET ILLUMINATED DIAL TONE CONTROL SIX TUBES FOUR SCREEN GRIDS DYNAMIC SPEAKER Thi» «et ha» a ll the advantage» of the Urger •et» and lota of volume to »pare.
