Has Dismissed Appeal in the Case of Foley vs. Redden Construction Co. in a decision handed down by Judge Case the finding of Compensation Commissioner James J. Donohue in the case of Mary Foley vs. The Red- den Construction Co., et al, is up- held. Mrs. Foley’s claim for compen- satign resulted from the death of her husband who was killed when struck by an automobile driven by a reckless automobile driver in Grotom. Mr. Fo- ley was on the way home at the time and was driving his cart. He had been carting for the Chappell company of New London to whom he had been sent for the day by the Redden com- pany. The commissioner decided that the Redden people were the employ- ers and decided the compensation award accordingly. The Redden com- pany appealed the finding to the su- perjor court and the judge of the su- perior court has upheld the commis- sioner. DIFFERENT—BUT SATISFACTORY.

Husting of Wisconsin, part: My dear Mr. Howe: You requested me to write you my views upon the subject, Economy in War Times, as affecting business and trade. This is a mighty big and important subject and it is impossible to adequately treat it within the confines of a letter in any but the most imperfect and elementary fashion. Consequently, 1 can present herewith omly the barest outline of what might be.sald upon this subject. A state of war being an abnormal condition, it is |quite wbvious that business ‘and trade can not hope to continue along entirely normal lines. Per necessity there must be some interruption and dislocation as an in- cident to war times and conditions. The best that the government can hope to do and the best that it can be expected to do is to Interfere as little as possible consistent with the public good. T am sure that our gov- ernment and our people generally are anxious to cooperate in évery possible manner to the end that our domestic life and our domestic business will be as little disturbed as possible in this war emergency. We need team work. We must all pull together. We are all anxious to soon mobilize not only cur fishting forces but our national resources so as to bring our greatest and mightiest power to bear upon the enemy. As a part of this tenm work, we are asked to economize. Of course, this means that we are to economize in a wise, intelligent and discriminat- ing manner, that is to say, to a com- mon object and purpose. However, before we can practice or exercise a wise, intellizent and discriminatirg economy, we must have a clear under- standing as to what is meant by econ- omy and also in what manner it may be ‘applied to the common object and purpose, which is, the mobilization and conservation of our national re- sources for war use. Now, economy is defined as “thrifty and careful administration; manage- ment without loss or waste: a housekeeper accustomed to economy but not to parsimony; often, frugalit or retrenchment in expenditure; strict husbanding of resources” * * * 3. The words in_ the definition which I think are peculiarly applicable to the pur- poses for which we are to economizé are the words “husbanding our sources.” We are af, =ar with a pow- erful enemy. The president has ad vised economy and the elimination of waste. We are notoriously a wasteful people and we are charged with be- ing an extravagant people. The pres- ident and the heads of departments have recommended the elimination of waste and the practice” of economy. This recommendation was made to initiate a concerted nation-wide effort for the husbanding of our countr: resources: forgthe purposes of the war (These T will term Necessaries for th purposes of this letter.) It is obvious that in order to win this war we must conserve the Neces- saries for the use of our armed forces and those of our allies and for our home consumption. Of course, no one will have the temerity to advise extravagance and waste at any time and particularly at a time like thi The poor we have alwavs with us and waste is a sin against humanity be- cause it deprives humankind of the use of that which is wasted or de- stroyed. ¥ ¢ Primarily, the object of economy in this war is to have our people gen- erally conserve as far as possible the necessaries which our people, our armed forces and those of our allies imperatively require and without which we can neither be successful in the war abroad or maintain content- ment and tranquility at home. On the other hand, the people of the country can not concertedly and completely change their habits of 1 ing without bringing disaster upon the business and industries of the country and upon the business world zenerally and the consequent disaster to our people which would follow in its train. Consequently, the economy we shvuld practice should be a wise, in- telligent _and discriminating economy It is this sort of economy which T feel quite sure the president and otherS are advocating. Of course, the time may come when the supply of money will be so short in this country that the mere saving of money even by the wealthy will become mandatory. But it will be plain to everyone that the mere saving of money and the retention of it in the pockets of the individual of ample means will not help the country or the situation any unless the resultant sav- ing finds its way in the shape of taxes or contributions Into_the treas ury of the United States. But at this time, the mere saving of money by the 'already wealthy merely to in- crease their own wealth does not help the situation materially. It is the Ne- cessories that we are short on and the supply of which it is imperative that we should conserve and, of course, the supply, already too scant or lim- ited for our normal needs, can not be conserved by adding to it a further abnormal and enormous increase. Then there is another collateral be- neficent result which follows from such a non-use of Necessaries and that is the necessarily resultant purchase and consumption of articles not em- braced within the term Necessaries. That is to say, not only does the use of a diversity of food stuffs and wear- ing apparel relieve the flerce demand on Necessaries but it keeps all busi- ness engaged in other lines going and business keeps the factories, flelds and mines going. These, in turn, keep men going and this brings wages and the ability to purchase the Necessar- ies required by them. It increases the available supply of Necessaries and reduces the high cost of living. In other word: ch economy means lit- tle, if any, dislocation of interruption of ‘the industrial or business machin- ery of the country of impairment of our domestic prosperity. The sinews of war must come in large part from the tax on business profits and the in- comes which flow therefrom to indi- viduals. It would be a shortsighted economy which would destroy or seri- cusly impair business or industrial prosperity and thus dry up the spring from which the revenies flow. As I see it then, a wise, intelligent and discriminating economy at this time consists; First—in the elimina- tion of all waste especially in_the use of Necessaries: second—in the very sparing and economic use of Necessar- ies: third—in the practice on the part of those possessed of ample means to try to satisfy their needs and wants as much as possible from things other than Necessaries, using Necessaries only when a fair substitute is want- mittee, James L.
