BUSINESS THRIFT .
By 8. W. BTftAUB, j
Praaldent American Society ht
Thrift.
WHILE we Americans as a peo
ple are more extravagant and
more wasteful of our resource*
than others, we have no superior*
in real business efficiency.
An example of this is shown la
the building and construction in
dustries. It takes twice aa long,
and sometimes more, to erect 8
|
building In England as it does here.
The result Is that buildingß over
there, generally speaking, cost aa
much as they do here although the
craftsmen engaged in construction
work are only paid a third as much i
as they are here. Rents, of course, i
must be in keeping with building
costs because the only way a build
ing can be operated profitably for
the owner is to secure an adequate
Income. Thus a heavy burden is
placed upon working people through
lack of efficiency in the building!
industry.
When we look about us in this
country and note the great progress
being made on every hand, how out j
cities and smaller places are for# j
lng ahead and how great building
projects are going forward, we galp
an appreciation of the value o) j
American efficiency. Better stand
! ards of living for the masses of tb
i people are continually being ds
’ veloped, education is broadened
| more amicable relations bet wee)
! employer and employee an
fostered, and higher ideals o
citizenship are brought into es
Istence.
American efficiency means sim
ply the elimination of the greats*
possible amount of waste, in othei
words tlirift applied to business
And it Is to be said to our honoi
that European countries are takial
note of our methods and are begin
cing to follow them.
As a nation we %ro ofte*
criticised for our commercialism
Nevertheless it can not be denied
that we have developed a type o/
Industrial thrift that is a strong
factor in solving many of our great
social problems.
Let us remember that standard*
of individual efficiency bring th«
same benefits to the individual a*
business efficiency brings to indu»
try. If we would make progress In
the world, we must learn to foregd
habits of waste. Thrifty ways, folj
lowed consistently from day to day]
can bring us only to successful
