SENATOR COUZENS ATTACKS BUYING .

By United States Senator James -V Conzens of Michigan. DETROIT, Sept. 17.—Installment buying’ still seems to be a subject of considerable discussion and agitation. This Is because there is doubt as to whether our present methods are soudd. If present installment sales methods were sound, the public agitation Would soon stop. There Is also some confusion as to the extent of the opposition to the present installment sales, based on gjhe viewpoint that the opposition is all installment sales of every of course, Is not so, because on the Installment plan somejjKig that appreciates or at least .■*rtint depreciate, and something is being consumed from day to ', There Is Difference Selling of homes or other real estate on installment is not comparable to the selling of automobiles, radios, refrigerators, furniture, clothing, jewelry, etc., on the installment basis. Real estaUf is not often subject to depreciation; more often it appreciates. > Not only the buyer, but the seller, therefore, is secure. Thatis not so wltr articles that are depreciated by use, and particularly is that not true of articles the depreciate in a short periood of tithe. Many of the arguments advanced In favor of installment selling Sre very specious, superficial, and made with the evident intention of supporfijhg this unsound' economic method. s, ' argue that because sales of homes, Liberty bonds, investments in corporation stock, and so on, are justified; that installment selling of automobile, radios, refrigerators, clothing, etc., is justified. Comparison With Drinking We might just\as well say that because a man is justified in taking a drink he is justified in taking dozens of them. I _ We may go along for some little time until the people get loaded up beyond their ability to pay, or until there is some slackening off in business, when wages and dividends are suspended. Then will the re-possess-ing have to be eiercjsed, and not only will manufacturers and merchants be tqaded up with re-pos-sessed articles, but they will have no market for them or new products. Instead of following the sound way of saving to' purbhase, such as isi being done by millions of people

Bu Time Special WICHITA, ICans., Sept. 17— "Thar’s gold in thenj hills,” says D. C. Daisy, famous old prdspector, “but try to get it.” The land to which Daisy refers is the valley of the Arkansas River, where there’s enough gold to pay the national debt, he says. Daisy says it is well known that through the centuries the Rockies have worn awjy several hundred feet. Gold and silver formations were dissipated and washed down streams, the same as other matter. Gold in the Arkansas valley has been badly scattered, however. The sand and overflow have allowed the gold by this time to seep through to bedrock. Until some Instrument is invented to locate the gold, Daisy says the riches of the Arkansas will be locked up t as securely as if they were in a vault.
