For the third sucessive year, Mr. Gravel received the membership trophy which is annually awarded to the member sponsoring the most new members. ” Assists Non-Members “The association,” said Mr, Grauel, “because all commercial credit is directly based on government credit, advocates a reduction of federal and state spending not necessary for direct war purposes. Our ability to finance the war without sn afterwar collapse depends upon the confidence of the people in our monetary soundness. The financing of the war should be founded upon good credit, and good credit still rests on two fundamentals: confi-

confidence in the ability to pay. “The association is assisting manufacturers, wholesalers, retailers and bankers in their war financing and I invite anyone in business, whether an association member or not, to call upon the association for its help, as it is a civic organization. The conservative policies of the association will continue, under the good management of Merritt Fields and his staff, who have contributed much to the above-average soundness of Indianapolis and Indiana industry.”
