Savings Division of the Treasury
Has Complete Plans for
Observing Day. °
Thrift Sunday is to be observed
throughout the country on June 22.
The project has been launched by
the savings division of the United
States Treasury Department, which
{8 assisting the national movement to
conserve war-taught habits of thrift,
and has met with hearty approval
from many interests and organiza
tions |
Every man, woman and child in the
United States will be asked to con
sider and discuss on Thrift Sunday
the present necessity for economy and
its permanent value to personal com
munity and national prosperity.
Thrift is the highway to freedom
The liberty of people in this country,
that is, =0 far as they do not inter
fere with the rights of others-——is
usually restricted only by lack of
funds to carry out plans. If one would
be free to obtain an education, free
to own a farm, to own nroper equip
ment, free to marry, free to improve
his property or acquire more, free to
educate his children, the practice of
systematic saving and safe invest.
ment will realize each and all,
THRIFT STAMPS CONTINUED. |
The safe and profitable investment
may be within the reach of ‘everyone,
the Treasury Department is continu
ing Thrift and War Savings stamps,
The latter, costing a lttle over $4,
pay the high rate of interest of 4 per
cent, compounded quarterly—one of
the very best rates for savings, War
Savings stamps are made very easy
to acquire. Thrift stamps cost but a
quarter each, and sixteen of these,
plus a few cents additional, may be
exchanged for an Interest-bearing
War Savings stamp If necessary,
War Savings stamps may ‘be cashed
in at any postoffice on ten days' no
tice.
In addition to their value ag a se
ecurity in stimulating thrift, invest
ment in War Savings stamps gives a
citizen a definite financial stake in
his country and arouses him to » more
active interest in its affairs, |
SAVINGS SLOGAN. |
Save first, spend afterwards is the |
slogan of the savings division. Put
ting away a portioh of proceeds regu
larly before the balance is touched
for spending makes a surprisingly
large amount for worth-while outlay
pile up in a short time.
A message from Secretary Glass
has been sent to all ministers and wili
be read from the pulpit. .

planted extensively, both for forage

weather has been the planting of a
larger sweet potato acreage, and a
favorable condition for a larger yield.
Tobacco is looking well, and the
acreage, particularly in “bright to

The tendency has been to plant a
larger acreage of peanuts and more

making considerable progress

Women Will Urge
Their Sex to Vote in
- Speeches at Movies
Miss Eleanor Raoul, chairman of
the Central Committee of Women
C'itizens of Atlanta, has announced
that prominent women will speak
in the principal moving picture
shows of Atlanta this week on the
responsibility of women rdgistering
to vote in the forthcoming white
primary. Mrs. Beaumont DaVison is
chairman of the speakers' bureau,
and she is preparing her prgoram of
speakers,
o ‘lt will be the desire of tHe speak
ers in the brief four-minute talks,”
announced Miss Raoul, “to answer
some of the questions which women
not familiar with the citizens’ com
mittee and their purposes are sak
ing. .
“At the ward rallies we are hold
ing 80 successfully we are enabled
to ind out why some women do not
ese the value of registering and vot
ing, and why some of them are in
different,
“We hope to reach these and oth«

which our municipal suffrage privi

A Message to Telephone Workers, Their Families, Relatives and Friends
The excuse given for the telephone strike in At
lanta was that a number of employees had been dis
missed or otherwise diseriminated against because of
trade union affiiliations or because of union activities.
The sympathies of telephone workers through
out the South were worked upon and some of them
were misled into leaving the service, after having
been deceived into believing that certain telephone
employees in Atlanta had been treated unjustly,
After an exhaustive inquiry, conducted in Atlan
ta, by three wholly disinterested Government Inspec
tors sent here for the purpose, testimony being taken
from all parties involved, it has been announced that
there was no evidence submitted to substantiate the
charge that any employee of the Southern Bell Com
pany was discharged or diseriminated against be
cause of his or her union affiliations or activities; and
that the dismissals complained of were for the good
of the service.
So the excuse for the strike has vanished.
Here is the text of the report made public at
Washington:
“Investigation of the telephone casecon
cluded today. The company (Southern Bell)
has shown good and sufficient reasons for all
dismissals or other changes in force, and
after painstaking and exhaustive inquiry no
evidence is found to support the charge that
employees have been discharged or other
wise discriminated against on account of
union membership or other activity. Full re
port will go forward as soon as it can be pre
pared and should reach Washington not
later than Monday."”
How easy it would have been to first learn the
facts before taking the hasty and unwise action
which is ereating bitterness and contention and is in
terfering with the public service and causing unrest
for happy workers throughout the country,
We not only showed the committee the facts, but
appealed to them to give the matter their most serious
consideration before taking any action that would not
only affect the public, but would react heavily upon
their own fellows and associate members.
’ Cousin Fred Houser, secretary of
Ethe Atlanta Convention Bureau, is in
Salt Lake City on a twofold mission
:-—-filb‘i, to attend the annual conven
‘tion of the International Association
of Rotary ('lnhs; gecond, to secure for
Atlanta the 1920 convention of the
National Association of Retail Gro
cers :
After disposing of these two mat
ters Mr. Houser will go on a still
hunt for several very choice gather
ings which ‘he is anxious to bring to
Atlanta in the next year or two, and
then he will take a vacation,
Atlanta this ygar has centeriained
more than 100 ('flrkeminns which have
brought to the city more than 100,000
visitors, and now Atlanta is witness
ing #n illustration of "the value of
adequate hotel facileties.
Charles LeMaire, traveling repre
sentative of the Waldorf-Astoria and
McAlpin Hotels in New York, who

tels, and especially with their cor

This was a consideration due you and all other
workers before attempting to involve you in the se
rious consequences of a strike.
~ Telephone workers, their families and friends,
who have been disturbed by misleading statements
about the company will be glad to have their minds
set at rest by the truth. e
It is clear now that unless the original excuse
for the strike was merely a subterfuge, no cause for it
now exists. Certainly, there is no just reason why
you should be expected to join a movement in sym
pathy for workers who have been treated fairly.-
The company and the public understand the in
fluence brought to bear upon telephone employees,
their relatives and friends, by insidious misstate
ments and false rumors. But all basis for these have
been removed by a complete and impartial inquiry.
If snap judgment is taken in a matter so vital to
your life and welfare, should you not be careful about
accepting other statements and charges which may
be repeated to you? .
It is gratifying to us to know that our women
ehief operators have been exonorated by Government
Inspectors from the erroneous charges given as an
excuse for the strike. You too, will be glad that your
fellow employees have upheld the traditions for loy
alty and fair dealing which are characteristic of Bell
Telephone employees.
We are daily receiving messages. of assurance
from employvees in every branch of the service, And
others, realizing they were misinformed, are return
ing.
Realizing that most of the employees who left
our service in this situation didrso under a misap
prehension of the facts, the company naturally has
nothing but the kindest feeling toward them. We
are bearing this in mind in considering the applica
tions of those who are seeking re-employment with
the company.
The public is encouraging you loyal employees
in the stand you have taken. The public admires and
insists upon sincerity and fair dealing. This is the
basis upon which your company has conducted its
affairs for more than forty years. The public knows
this, as you do. .
