COFFIN WARNB THE NATION A GREAT DANGER OF ILL-ADVIBED ECONOMY. Wheels Must Be Kept Turning.— Prosperity is Needed More In War time Than In Peace Say National Defense Council. Washington.—Warning to the nation •gainst a real danger In hysterical and 111-advised economy and interference with normal pursuits of the people, is given by Howard E. Coffin, of the Ad visory Commission of the Council of National Defense, in a statement Just made public. Just returned from a trip -through several Middle Western States, Mr. CofTin deplores the fact that condi tions of unemployment and close fac i tories should arise as a result of in .discrlmlnatlve efforts, public and "private, toward war time econobiies. "After nearly three years of re fusal to take the European war and Its lessons seriously," Mr. Coffin said, "we suddenly launched forth In a most feverish acticlty to save the Jcountry overnight. Patriotic organi zations almost without number are milling around noisily, and while in tentions are good, the results are oft en far from practical. "Because of an impending and pos sible shortage of foodstuffs, we have hysterical demands for economy in every line of human endeavor. Waste is bad, but an undiscrlminatlng econ omy is worse. "Some states and municipalities are stopping road building and other public work General business is be ing slowed down because of the emo tional response of the trading public to these misguided campaigns for economy; savings are being with drawn from the banks; reports show that some people have begun to hoard food supplies and thousands of workers are being thrown needlessly out of employment. All this Is wrong. "We need prosperity in wartime even more than when we are at peace. We need more busineSs, not less. There Is real danger In hysteria. In discriminate economy wlll» be ruin ous. Now is the time to open the throttle. "It seems to me, therefore, that a plain statement of general policy Is most desirable. "Upon the Industrial side ,of the war three great problems, or per haps I should better say tasks, con front us. "First and foremost, we must fa cilitate the flow of raw materials and finished products to our Allies and must provide the means of rail and water transportation therefor. "Second, we must meet our own great military and naval building schedules. "Third, we must plan to do all this with the least possible disarrange ment to our vast commercial and Industrial machines. "Through U all we must keep a, close eye upon the possible condi tions of peace following the present! war. We must Insure the business j process and general prosperity of the country during the war, If we are to; hold our present strong place among nations In the commercial compe- j titlon of the future."

OETAILS TO BE 6IIIEN OUT Amount of Lo«n and Other Matter* Concerning Loan Will Be Made Pub- He In a Few Days by Secretary 1 McAdoo. ! Washington. The first American loan to the Allied Nations will go to I Great Britain. I The amount and other details prob ably will be made public by Secretary McAdoo within a few days. Whatever the sum, the amount will be available out of the proceeds of the $5,000,000,000 bond Issue soon to jbe offered to the public, of which | $3,000,000,000 will be loaned to the I Allies. Announcement to this effect was made at the treasury department after a day crowded with conferences be tween Secretary McAdoo and Federal Reserve Board officials and American bankers and bondholders and official I representatives of Great Britain and France. Another development was the . announcement that the size of the first Issue of bonds authorized under the I $7,000,000,000 war finance measure I will depend largely upon the immedi ate needs of the' Allies. Reports as to this have _ yet to be received in detail. The entire $5,000,000,000 of author ized bonds will not be offered In one lump sum, according to present ten tative plans, but probably will be call ed for in several or issues. By this course, it is believed that financial disturbances which might re sult were the country called upon to absorb the whole Issue at once, will be averted. Details as to the amount of the first j Issue, Its distribution Among the Allies, the character and terms of the bonds, methods of disposing of them, and other questions will engage the atten tion of the treasury department and Federal Reserve Board officials during the next ten days. The first of these conferences began with the visit of Lord Cunllffe, Gov ernor of the Bank of England, upon Secretary McAdoo and Governor Harding of the Reserve Board- Nego tiations will bo conducted with a view to disposing as rapidly as possible of details so that the bond Issue may be offered without delay.
