Why not) ask the President to proclaim a Week| of War on Waste, and organize local | contests in the elimination of waste| and award prizes?” M Thompson | said. 46 NOTHER thing, the United States has not hesitated to seek the guidance of France and England in solving the military and commercial problems which en- trance into the War has imposed upon us. Why should we not do the same for the solution of our problems of household economy? | “I should like to suggest that France, famed through the ages the world over for her domestic economy, be asked by the United States to send to our aid some of the ablest econo- mists of the French Academy and some of the best skilled instructors \of their Ecoles Menageres to tour the | United States, teaching American |women those principles of thrift and | domestic efciency which are second |nature to French women, “The French not only are skilled beyond us in the domestic arts and trades, They have a perception of the whole matter of economy very much needed in the United States for | the success, not alone of the Amert- can’ programme of household econ- lomy, but 6f commercial economy as | well. ‘In the United States the vital busi- ness matter of household economy is conceived in relation to trade and national defense as the ladies’ annex of a man’s club, Throughout the bus- iness order in France its true relation is practically applied as in the caso of the great Creusot iron works. There wives of workingmen are trained for household occupations, and by agree- ment prevented from working for wages outside the home, because, as Paul Leroy Beaulieu interprets’ it, ‘Economy in the household equals in ‘ ‘OM can, of course, effect tion of goods if they will systematize their shopping, always to the end of reducing cost of deliv- lly ery, espect as to the matte: having goods sent home on ap Mrs. Thompsor admitted, rted action on the part af housewives in this regard ts needed to perfect commercial economy of distribution, Assured of the co- operation of housewives, a co-opera- tive system of retail delivery could readily supplement, with much sav. ing, ‘the expensive duplication of delivery now in operation “Ambassador Gerard said recently in public that the food problen | would make the market basket fash- Jionable. That is a popular way of stating the light in whioh the whole theory of the distribution of food is held in the United States. “Economists have never gone into the American kitchen to comput costs and conditions there. ‘Tae market problem is thus deemed solved when American women are told to save by going to market and carrying their baskets home; no ac- fcount t# made of the cooking, clean ing, washing, nursing and now |gardening, of the housewife tha Walls and wastes meanwhile "On the other hand. normous | waste acerues in commerce from the Jerror of looking’on the housewife as only a guileless consumer, whose time and jabor are worth nothing qa. increase of wages.’ , | would be settled if American women| at: GEA ean aed all, As much she ts business, to batt her ridiculously expensive Hon of: retail delivery of goods is the con- sequence, as when a dollar is spent to send home a two-cent yeast cake by a motor truck. 4“ ET us refuse to be mobilized until we know where we are going and what for,” Thompson = eoncluded. As are to-day, a new meet- ing is called every little while, a few impassioned remarks are made from the chair, resolutions are passed offering our services to the President, and then~the climax—a uniform is adopted. One with trous- ers seems to be popularly accepted as best suited to express the patriotism of women in wartime, Thus attired, with chest expanded and the head held high—forward, march!—we step out bravely, Nobody quite’ knows why or where, except that we are on the way—to victory, of course—for with the fact of our mobilization and & copy of our resolutions before him, surely Mr. Wilson can do the rest, “But personally I am inclined to think that a little less stress on uni- form and more stress on efficiency would at present greatly improve the nature of the nationals service of women in the United States. “And that we should weigh care- fuly our value to our own households, should estimate the equivalent of our time in money saved in the home, be- fore we step outside it to save the country.” AUTH LAW IS SCORCHED IN BLAZING AIRPLANE Is 2,000 Feet Above Ground When Her Gasoline Tank Is Exploded.
