MUST REGAIN
WAR LOSSES.
Thrift and Economy Will
Put Country on Sound
Foundation. i
Two years ago on the 11th of
November the Armistice which
ended the 2 world war went into
effect and 'the guns which had
cost the lives„of 'nearly ten mil
lion men ceased firing.
Since that.day profound chang
es have come over the world and
its people. New times are usher
ed in and new conditions prevail.
The very foundation of Gbvern
ment’have been shaken and all
human institutions have been put
to the test.
Out of war the world went in
to speculation, extravagance and
all, manner of follies. Now at
last the world has recovered its
senses. The'; smoke 'of the war
has clearedfcway, the passions it
engendered* have cooled a little
and we begin to see in its true
perspective the greatest catastro
phe of all time.
It is clear to us now that the
frightful destruction of war can
not enrich the world. We cannot
create" wealth by. destroying it.
There were 1 many who thought
the war had'ushered in a period
of unprecedented prosperity. We
now are undeceived. We realize
that the world has lost half its
working capital and no alchemy
of speculation, no legerdemain of
statistics, can hide this moment
ous fact. The bubble of specula
tion has burst; the mania for
prodigal spending has run its
course.
It took this bitter experience to
bring the world to its senses.
Humanity has just awakened
from its delirum —a kind of brain
fever that resulted from the sur
gical operation which cut off ten
million men. There never was
a surgical operation like that.
Never a fever raged so fiercely
as the one that seized the writh
ing body of the race and swept
the whole world into folly.
Now the fever is gone and tl e
body of humanity is deeply de
pressed. Presently it will begin
to gain strength. The one tbirg
that will aid recuperation and
hasten the recovery of strength
is the old-fashioned virtue of in
dustry, accompanied by another,
economy.
The Government’s propaganda
on Thrift became tiresome to ti e
prodigals, but now they would
lay its truth to heart. They have
personally proven the fact that
there is no sure road to wealth,
comfort or independence, for an
individual or a Nation, but by in
dustry and economy. It is sig
nificant of a return to sanity that
the sales of Thrift, and Savings
Stamps increased 44 per cent in
October.
It is a good idea to make Armis
tice Day a milestone which will
mark the beginning of a new era
of Thrift. It is that which will
restore prosperity and make life
worth living.
