EXTRAVAGANCE A NATIONAL VICE lossiih T. Talbert ScuirJs Warnlnj Against Rjckless Expenditure ' Th3 Automobils Lrazs a Caso in Point It is tlis Fashion - - 1 Now to Be Extravagant. El Paso, Tex. Eftravasance has become not only a national vice but Is In fact becoming a national menace In the opinion ot Joseph T. Talhert, vice-president of the National City Bank, of Kew York. Mr. Tulbert, who spoke before the Te::as Bankers' Association, said that there does not appear anywhere to exl.t in the con duct of national, municipal or Indi vidual affairs, that appreciation of the economical and prudent use of resources and that adjustment of ex penditures to means and incomes which always have been found neces sary to the support of prosperity and to the maintenance of a condition of solvency. The speaker cited the automobile craze as a case In point. "We are squandering on pleasure vehicles an nually sums of money running into hundreds of millions of dollars," he continued. "The Initial cost of auto mobiles to American users amounts to not less than $2.10,000,000 a year. The tip-keep and other necessary ex penditures, ns well as incidentals, which would not otherwise be In curred, amount to at least as much more. This vast sum is equivalent In actual economic waste each year to more than the value of property destroyed In the San Francisco fire perhaps to twice ns much. This sum, as large as it is, does not Include tlie whole economic loss growing out of this slticle item of indulgence. The thousand of young and able-bodied m neti eiriplbyed in manufacturing ma cbl bines rintt in running and caring for cars, nil are withdrawn from produc tive usefulness; they become cor.sum ers of our diminishing surplus, pro ducts and constitute an added bur den to the producers. The economic Influence of this withdrawal from the producing and addition to the con sumlrrg cjass, la bound to be mani fested In a tendency to higher prices'; Its'effect already must be consider able, and is cqmparable .only, to the mttinrcnance of an enormous ttand ;ing;'r'iu'y, , "fXu sanl upon thousands of our peopley'ff pitied Vy desire for pleas ure nid crazed by passion to. spend, hava mnrtgigied their homes," pledged their ,,llfet.,insurance. policies, wlth- drawa thctj- brd-earned savings irora nanas to Duy amoivionues; ana 'have tnerehy converted their modest assets into expanding and" devouring liabilities. The spectacle is astound ing. v- . "hi the-matter of individual ex penditures it is the fashion now to be AMERICA'S GREED OF GOLD. Cambridge, Mass. Dr. Charles W. Eliot, Harvard's president emeritus, asserts "that the lust for gold and the thirst for power, considered hy Americans as the main objects of ex istence, have caused the present reign of discontent which is sweeping over the country;" "The object of life with the In dividual as with the nation results from the succession of pleasureable emotions and feelings," he adds. "Progress Is measured by happiness, not by dollars and cents. The aver age worklngman falls to realize this. Neither social prestige nor riches can Cartoon by Trings, in the New York 1'ress. extravagant to the point o? wasteful ness, and the lashiou is running riot. Individual thrift is considered not merely miserly hoarding, hut Is looked upon as a vice and a thing to be despised. It Is said that this la not a day of small things, and that wealth, as wealth goes now, may no longer he accumulated by the slow process of savings and econo mies. This may he true if we shall measure wealth only by billions or hundreds of millions, but, just as surely as there ever existed virtue in economy, of contentment and Inde pendence In frugality, liiey are there to-oay, and just as fiirely as Individ ual and national extravagance ever led to a day of reckoning they are doing so to-day. Among nations, and among Individuals, permanent wealth and material progress are the results, not so much ef rich natural resources as they are the products of economy and thrift; not alone economy in the arts of production, but economy of use. "The maintenance of the present high level of prices Is dependent upon the sustained purchaslnc power of the Indiivdual which in turn depends very largely, if not wholly, upon the e:panslor. of credit. Herein lies one of the chief elements of weakness and danger In the .situation. "If the banks may by Increasing lonns create credits, which in turn rreate purchasing power and a sus tained demand for high-priced goods, thereby still further advancing prices In the btneflts of which nil classes share except those who possess fixed Incomes, It may be asked why this is not good; why not continue to pro mote the general ability to spend; why not continue giving to each In dividual an amount of enjoyment, luxury and pleasure unknown before, particularly when all this may be ac complished by merely Increasing loans? The simple but cornprehen slve and truthful answer is that it cannot be done because .in the long ran every act of wastefulness and every item' of' extravagance must be ald for to the" last farthing;- 'dvery item consumed must be earned." . Mr. Talbert also discussed the dan ger of the country losing Its favorable trade1'' balance and of adding an ad verse :trade balance tQ the other debtt Items which run against this country to the extent of hundreds of millions, of dollars a year. Mr. Talbert estimated-these itemB at a total of $900, 000,000, including 1200, 000, 000 .spent abroad by American travelers. promote happiness or retard it. The happiness of a community can be furthered not by Increasing its total wealth or distributing it more evenly, but hy Improving its physical and moral welfare. "Sensuous pleasures, like eating and drinking, are sometimes de scribed as animal, and therefore un worthy, but men are animals and have a right to enjoy without re proach those pleasures of animal ex istence which maintain health, strength and life Itself. These pleas ures, taken naturally and in moder ation, are all pure and honorable." THE LAMM'S FINISH.
