TRY JOURNAL WANT ADS LITTLE TALKS By 8. W. STRAUS Pruidni American Socu& Jar Thrfl One of the subtle values of thrift lies in the fact that it makes one think. Those who are slipshod and thriftless are unthink ing. Lack of thrift is, gen erally speak ing, lack of thought I Since America has begun to give p-eater heed to thrift, M 1 re mit of war necessity, our people are beginning to think more. . Thrift begets thrift, because the more thought one gives to this sub ject, the greater is the Impulse to develop personal efficiency. Tle man who never saved before and who now owns a Liberty Bond is bending every effort to save enough money to buy another one. Thus his character is strengthened, bis will power developed, his am bition stimulated ; he is a new man mentally. If it were possible to measure such things, we would find that his indication of poise, self respect ami confidence has risen high in the scale of percentages. The fact that thrift leads to thrift, is manifest on every hand. Every lay, figuratively sneaking, we note -I' - irtii'-.. Our Boys are in the Army and Navy giving up their lives that we may live and enjoy our homes and liberties. Tiicy are fighting for you and fitt ing far me.

ON THRIFT new evidences of thrift practice. The most tangible proof of this fact fies in the statement of increaseo) savings during the year 1917, which are truly amazing. It is estimated that the savings of roe whole peo ple of the United States before we entered the war, were $5,000(XXHX)0 to $6,000,000,000. But in 1917 these: livings grew leaps and bounds, and almost trebled their former amount reaching $14 000,000,000 to $15,00O00O00(i This tremendous Inereasfl In thrift is the result of thinking. It is the cumulative effect of savings which) were started primarily to bxlg America win the war. What glorious insplratlod comej with these revelations, for we nrastf remember always, that the value o thrift is beyond tnonitary compensan tion. Whaf a great addition- to onfl morale, oar moral stamina, our; efficiency, our progress has- beed made, since, under war pressure, wa turned to thrift! How true were the; word of Shakespeare when he said, "Thrift is blessing." We turned to !t out of our neces sities and, no doubt with many of us, in reluctant mood. But, we havej found thrift not a hardship, but a blessing; not a stern taskmaster, but a good substantial friend.

Business men were warned today by President R. Goodwyn Rhetfc of the chamber of com merce of the. United States against ' ' bolsheviki - in America, a menace equal to German militarism which would turn us over to mob tyrrnnny more cruel and destructive than that of the autocrat." Formally opening the chamber's sixth annual meeting, Ehett beseeched those m business who believe in cooperation for the common welfare to seek kind red spirits in tho ranks of labor to suppress spirits of discontent who would bring about a "revolution." This unrest "must be- reckoned with and adjusted if industry and commerce is to go on under private initiation and private leadership and manage ment," Ehett declared. What is no.t for the common good is not for the good of business. When wa have all learned that lesson suspi cion between employer and employe will disappear, conflict between capi tal and labor will cease, thoughts of coercion will change to cooperation, the spirit of greed will be transformed in to service." Ehett criticized the supreme court I for its early interpretation of the Sherman "anti-trust" act under which! he said "combinations were declared ' merely a matter of form and not a ! violation of the law even if price and j production would' thereby be absolutely ! controlled. j For fifteen years the moral sense : of business men was twisted and dis- ; torted under this interpretation. But ; ive years ago the supreme court re- ! versed itself and adopted the interpre tation c the common law wnieh regaru ed .combination with favor onlv when it did not injure the public. This re versal undoubtedly saved the country from a revolution,'' Ehett stated. Ehett concluded with an appeal, to American business men to "put a soul nto business. In that democracy may find its safeguard and protection." H1.9 address was followed bv an im portant session devoted to shipping with a talk scheduled by Edward N. Hurlev, chairman of the United States shipping board'. Committee reports- submitted today advocated entire year daylight saving, budgets jfort .congressional (appropria tions and improvement in the status of em-plovers' liability. Resolutions) submitted. Iby various commercial bodies urged repeal of the Sherman net, amendment of the wai revenue act, relief of public utilities hurt by tho war, increased punish merit for anti-war act, and new federal bankruptcy laws. A resolution to suppress German lan guago newspapers was tabled by a vote of 134 to 102. Americanization of 13, 000,000 foreign born persons in this country is a pressing problem, it was agreed. Government May Handle Ail Coast Vessels Washington, April 10. Government operation of all coastwise shipping to further relieve the national railways was authoritatively "forecast here today. Co-ordination of rail shipping has been a problem long considered to short en the rail hauls. This would accomplish a utilisation of the smaller ships to the f-illest extent at the same time. Paric ularly this is true of the traffic be tween the New England and Gulf dis tricts. It is reported the railroad administra tion will take over the properties of the Merchants' and Miners' Transportation company, one of the more important links in the north and south traffic.
