THE AFTER-THE-WAR PROBLEM SOLVED BY THE PEOPLE
There is ft need today of a great many manufactured articles, of good*
which we were not able to manufacture during the war. Two years have
entirely depleted the surplus stock In nearly every line except war munitions.
Then. Government economists, through tho medium of the Depart
ment of labor, state frankly that the American poopLe are in an excellent
position to buy. Wages were high during the war and means of expendi
ture wi re limited.
Today we have the proper conditions for u demand that will lead to
irirge production, the revival of business and the end of any serious unem
ployment. As a result of which Roger W. Babson, Director (Jen era I of the
Department of Libor. Is urging the people to buy now In order that business
may receive this needed stimulus. ^
Mr Babson asks pointedly: “What are you doing. Mr Manufacturer;
what are you doing Mr Merchant; and you. Mr Everyday Workingman?"
He then urges them to get together, to cooperate, to keep industry going.
He admonishes them to adjust their business, to adjust themselves
to the after-the-war conditions. .Ho urges them to renew buying, to
renew selling, renew production on the new peace-time basis, and thus create
Jobs for our returning fighters.
Ho says: “You who have work, you who have money. BUY NOW—for
your plant, your store, your own little home. Get going. Full speed ahead.
BUY NOW!"
