UBLIC building programs should | be encouraged throughout the Nation, and women, who hold the family purse strings, should _unite in spending wisely, in- stead of hoarding their money through fear of the economic specter, in order | to bring a return to better times, de- clares Mrs. Edward D. Knight, assist- ant vice president of the bank | of America, of San Francisco, Who has arrived in Washington to at- | tend the Midwinter meeting of the board of directors of the General Fed- eration of Women's Clubs. | “We have much to be grateful for on the West Coast,” said Mrs. Knight, “through our great public building pro- grams, including the San Francisco Bay Bridge project, which will start this year, and the Boulder Dam proj- | ect, which is_giving employment to thousands. I believe that this is the time for public works programs to be encouraged and started throughout the | country wherever possible, as it will be a strong factor in contributing to a return to normalcy. Foresees New Era. “There is no doubt,” continued Mrs. | Knight, whose business brings her in | that we are on the eve of a new eco- | and that women have an | nomic_era, important part in the present crisis. | They must learn to make a proper | aluation both of money and time. omen are great wasters of time, both | own and other people’s.

I think all families should hold regular coun- cils, to which the children should be | admitted and hear family finances dis- cussed. As soon as children are old | enough to go out they should be given | | an allowance, taught to keep a bud- get_and keep within that budget “Women are the consumers and the spenders of the Nation, and they have an important role to play in helping the country out of the present crisis.” Mrs. Knight, who started in the banking business 11 years ago as head of the women's department of the Bank of Italy, admitted tbat many women investors became frightened by the economic situation and held on to their money and holdings too closely.
