IS WAY BACK
TO NORMAL
(Hv C arl Professor of Finance,
('diversity of California)
Of course the war upset business.
It increased some lines such as wa
munitions but decreased common,
everyday peace lines. The only pos
sible way back to normal is to bui'd
up common business.
To get back to normal means tha*
we have to get capital back into these
lines of business which have fallen
behind. If an individual has met a
great loss the only way he can mak\?
himself whole again is by saving, by
strict economy . A country is only a
lot of individuals. We have, collective
ly, to meet the cost of the war, an
economic loss, although a moral gain.
We can meet it only by saving.
The government is coming to ts

Why be satisfied with the wear you
get from ordinary boots
when you get so much more from “Hi-Prcssr
This is no idle claim, hut a fact proven by miners,
farmers and construction workers from Air ska to
Mexico. “ITi-Press” is made by a new and better
method—thegreatest advance ia footwear in fifty years.
We use the toughest rubber ever evolved—actually the
same kind that goes into Goodrich Auto Tires. There
seems to he no wear-out to it. And the boot is molded
^ INTO ONE SOLID PIECE!
Can't leak or conic apart—and
it’s wonderfully comfortable.
When next you hit the trail try the
Shupac—shown here. The White

are many other styles. Ask for the

this month with the Victory Loans.
Loan- the last of the Liberty Loan?
There are sound financial and eco
nomic reasons why the Victory Lonn
should he brought again to the pr *•
pie. The government could make us
i save by heavy taxes right now, but i*
prefers the less harsh and wise;
course of borrowing our savings now
'and taxing on the installment plan, a
1 little each year.
Leave Banks Free
Now if the people take the loan,
as they must, the banks will be lcr(
free to lend to the farmer the manu
facturer, the grocer, the butcher, and
the baker so they can get busy again.
Then production and business will
grow ami, by the formula, prices will
come to normal. Then we shall all
know “where we are at” and get
straightened out again.
If we “leave it to the banks”, they
will have “no funds” left for business, j
big or little. We, ourselves, will not j
be saving and the day of our redemp i
tion will only be postponed. There w l> j
result inevitable inflation and the con
tinuance of high and abnormally flue'
uating prices.
The Victory Loan is part of the
war job just as much as any othe»
Liberty Loan. We can not afford t j
“let George do it,” because if we do
we shall be turning our hands from
the plow before the end of the furrow
is reached , and leaving a big crop of
weeds to spring up.
