PAYMENT PLAN IS DISCOURAGED

Installment Method To Be Investigated By Reserve System The Federal Reserve System has been ordered by the president to “investigate, regulate and prohibit” installment buying and installment loans. Chaiman Marriner S. Eccles is given power to regulate terms of consumer credit. Eccles indicates that the order will “dampen the demand” for automobiles, refrigerators, vacuum cleaners, washing machines, ironers and other goods. Household furniture ranks second in the amount of sales made on the installment plan. If you will trace the results of the above program down to the local retail dealers and shops in our own home town you will likely realize the danger to many of them being driven out of business. Perhaps the biggest boom in installment credit at the present time is for residential buildings, which are favored, and backed by the Government. The President states that it must be continued. Thus, his present attack upon the installment sales system is in “reverse” with the Government program for home building. The principal reason assigned for this ban on installment sales is to escape inflation. The President says his order will help National Defense, curb price advances and profiteering, promote the accumulation of savings, and create a back-log demand for consumerc durable goods. Most automobiles have been bought on the installment plan. Mr. Eccles now seeks to put a crimp in installment sales of automobiles, while another official, Leon Henderson, proposes to cut down the production of motor cars 20 per cent to 50 per cent. Frozen Funds In April last year the United States Government froze 267 million dollars of funds in the United States that belonged to Norway and Denmark. That was the beginning of “freezing” which was a plan to keep the funds of the invaded countries from being used by Germany and' others. Today these foreign funds amount to more than 7 1-4 billion dollars. Perhaps you may have forgotten some of those nations that were stormed and crushed by Hitler. Those unfortunate nations that are being defended by the United States are Denmark, Luxembourg, Holland, Belgium, France, Germany, Japan, Italy, Greece, Yugoslavia, Rumania, Hungary, Austria, Poland, Czechoslovakia, Finland,

Portugal, China, Switzerland, Sweden, Spain, Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania. To Save Small Business Editor Joseph Martin of Massachusetts, Chairman of the Republican National Committee, and Congressman from his State, says that small businesses comprise 99 per cent of all business and handle 65 per cent of the nation’s commerce. He thinks the small fellows are “getting the worst of it” in the awards of defense contracts, anti he has declared a campaign to force the Government to adopt measures to save small business men from being plowed under. Jobs Plentiful According to the Works Progress Administration 4 million new jobs were created during the past year. Employment is almost normal throughout the country. Suggests Three Principal Methods of Checking Budget There are three principal ways of analyzing a budget and determining which items are all right and which are too high. The first and simplest is by comparing the amounts requested for each item with actual expenditures in that item for three or four previous years. Make up a table showing the expenditures in each item in parallel vertical columns for say 1937 to 1940 inclusive, then expenditures for the first six months of 1941, then appropriations for the year 1941, and then the proposed budget for 1942. Then leave two or three blank columns for your recommenflations and the action taken. A study of this table will quickly show you in which items the amounts requested are materially above previous years. The second main way of analyzing a budget is to attempt to determine the actual needs of a department regardless of past experience. In some items an increase over previous years may well be justified, while in other items the spending of as much as in the previous year may be rank extravagance. Salary levels should be weighed against those paid for similar work in private industry, considering the security of the job and any pensions. Any material changes from the previous year in commodity prices, living costs, or the salary scales of private employment should also be considered. This type of study requires much more time than the first type mentioned above, and you probably will be able to make a detailed investigation only in the case of a few major items, especially those whele there is an increase over previous years. The third method is that of making comparisons between different

URGING LOWER WELFARE COST

Tax Costs Are Now At A New High

Peak

‘The day when tax (budgets needed upward adjustments is passed, and for the first time in several years, direct poor relief and welfare budgets can and should be pared to the bone,” states Anson S. Thomas, director of the Farm Bureau tax and legislative work. Since January 1, 1941, more than 100,000 additional people have been employed by industry. “This virtually means that employment awaits every able bodied person in the defense program or affiliated industries,” says Mr. Thomas, ‘and certainly there should he no incentive in these days of uncertainty to carry any person on any type of relief rolls who can contribute to the defense program and draw good pay for his work. “There is a possibility for this condition to exist if taxpayers fail to arouse enough interest against it, and September 2 is the day when taxpayers can meet with the

units of somewhat the same siz^ and characteristics. This third method is especially useful in comparing township budgets and also all salary items, where rates of pay should be compared with other similar communi-

ties.

county council to scrutinize every item in the budgets. It is on this occasion that budgets will be adopted. Next year’s taxes will (be gauged by these adopted (budgets. “The estimated budgets will first be advertised on or before August 24 and the second specification I will appear August 31 or earlier. No taxpayer should forget that great changes have brought economic improvements and that public assistance has hut a minor role as compared to the immediate past years. Knowing that defense taxes are bound to increase, there is reason and opportunity to balance the tax load by reducing public assistance while increasing for defense. “The Farm Bureau desires that every person who can show actual need should have public assistance. However, beyond that point, it will fight just as vigorously to remove some of the apparent excess relief load carried during the past few years. These changes can and will be made according to taxpayer interest manifest on September 2 when hearings will

be held.”

o Treatment of Burns Given in Article Medical science often takes time out to explain some of the less intricate curatives to the general public—curatives which anyone can safely use in case of emergency. Arlie L. Moon, M.

the affected part and held in place with a bandage. One of the newer remedies which is being applied to burns, with apparently very excellent results, is cod-liver oil. The vitamins present in this preparation seem to have some effect on the skin, which hastens the healing process. “If a burn is at all extensive or severe it is best not to apply an ointment or any greasy material, as the physicians may wish to make use of a 5 per cent tannic acid spray to the affected area, which forms a tough, dark coating over the skin and protects it from air and hastens the healing process. This preparation is not effective when an ointment has been applied, and the greasy material must first be removed, which is a difficult, painful process. However, baking soda may be moistened with water, which has preferably been boiled, as this renders the water sterile and helps to prevent infection. The water should be warm, and the moistened baking soda should be placed on gauze dressings and applied to the affected area. This will give considerable relief. If the burned area covers a considerable portion of the body, the person may be placed in a tub of warm water, which will give great relief as an

emergency measure.” In very recent years, the medical profession has made remarkable progress in the treatment of burns—many severe cases which would have proved fatal not so long ago, are now saved, and disJiguring scars are largely presented. This is just one of the many chapters in the book of achievement of private medicine in this country. ■ -o Legal Notice NOTICK TO NON-RESIDENTS “
