Business men of the United States re cutting down their overhead ex- penses to meet the public demand for | es by various methods cal- gum-»d to bring the of ording to a survey just completed the Chamber of Commerce of the ted States. The department of domestic distribution of the chamber sent questionnaires to hundreds of! business men_and replies were re- | ceived from 2,000, answering ques- tions as to distribution costs. The replies for the most part re- port what has been done, but a final question asked for, suggestions as to how the domestic distribution depart- ment might help in lowering the cost of merchandising to a normal basis. A large number of answers said, “Do something to lower freight rates. About 58 per cent of the business men have reduced the number of em- ployes and about one-fifth have done away with or reduced commissions and bonuses. More than 20 per cent of those who answered had made a reduction in volume of credits busi- ness. Some had shortened the time on charge accounts, while a consider- able number, or about 4 per cent, had lengthened time on this class of busi- ness. Although there has been a consider- able reduction in advertising space used, business men are seeking great- er efficiency per inch of space, the chamber reported. More than one- fourth of the business men answer- ing said they had cut down advertis- ing space and there was an actual decrease in the use of circularizing as a means of publicity. TO TRAIN ONLY STUDENTS. Reserves’ Summer Camps Not for Officers, War Department States. Because of an apparent misunder- standing of the case, the War Depart- ment has announced that the training camps for reserves to be opened this summer are “for members of the Re- serve Officers’ Training Corps and not for resorve officers.” It is explained that members of the Reserve Officers’ Training Corps are students at the various educational institutions throughout the country and are not reserve officers. The Re- | serve Officers’ Training Corps camps | are for the purpose of giving milital training to these college students a part of their college course and prepare these students for appoint- ment as reserve officers. No training camps are contemplated for the train- ing of reserve officers for the year 1921.
