THE POCKETBOOK of KNOWLEDGE ^ Grails of Sand DONT WASTE SWEATED DOLLARS The war abroad, which ha.^s brought with it the need for gi gantic military expenditures here to a.ssure our security in a belligerent world, has drastical ly changed the tax situation. It has delayed the opportuntiy to balance the budget and reduce the debt. But it will be a tragic thing for this country if the dire ne cessities of the time lead to a “Why worry about it” attitude on the part of the public in re gard to spending. The very fact that untold billions must now be appropriated for military purposes makes it all the more essential that every penny be spent wtih meticulous care. The very fact that we are starting the defense program under the greatest handicap of debt in our historv makes it all the more essential that the inefficient, wasteful and non-productive hand of the professional politi- r?o8 IN <908. ^S.OOO AUtOMOftlLES wece MADE IH TME*U $ TODM wt Turn Out more IN % WORKING “DAYS — T«e KUCM FfSH.

The American people, driven by the need for military secur ity, must build a military estab lishment costly beyond all pre cedents. An incredible propor tion of the national income must be taken from the pockets of the people and diverted to gov ernment. All; of us will have fewer luxuries. All of us must conserve. All of us must sacri fice. That is clear enough and reas onable enough. But it has be come tragically plain that a very substantia] portion of the Amer ican people have the idea that the other fellow should make most, if not'all of the sacrifices. It’s the other fellow’s standard of living which should suffer, not their own. It’s the other fel low who should pay the bill and do the work, while they go on much as they did before. * Certain influential segments of labor, for instance, demand still higher pay, shorter hours, excessive exfra pay for over time, and other special privileges and prerogatives for the work man, despite the fact that pay is now the highest and the work week the shortest in hfttorj'. Their argument is that industry must .sacrifice more of its prof its in the intere.st of labor, while the worker grows fat off the na tional emergency. A certain segment of industry trance board and will piepare pupils for the best colleges of the North fnd South. Special attention is given m all clases to .\rt, Music, and Nee dlework, A course in Commercial Art was given last year for !»ie first time and i it proved not only of special interest j for the students who followed it but ; also seemed to satisfy a present day need. A Secretarial course was also opened at the academy last Septem ber. The majority of the students who | took the cour.se are now filling worth-1 while positions.
