LEARN TO DO WITHOUT If you find yourself unuble to live within your income, there are just two remedies; either you 'must inereuxe your Income, or reduce your standard of livin, tion ix so simple that child should grasp it, but it much for a lot of grown-ups, | Marshall in the Thrift Magazine. could examine the budgets of most of the people who are howling #0 lustily about the high cost of li of making both ends meet, you would find that the tap-root of their troubles in that 'they-are buying too many things that the coull get slong without" The plain truth is that the standard of living thet has been adopted by the vast majority of Americans is entirely too high for sound economics. The maaes of our people insist upon hav- ing » great deal more in the way of expen- ve Tuxuries that can be supplied by any possible adjustment of the forces of produc- tion. It is simply not physically possible for everybody to have the choicest cute of 'stenk and out-of-seaxon fruits and vege- tables, Neither can there be a piano in ev home, or costly fure and daces for every |woman, There are not enough of these jthings to go sround and that is all there |in to it, ' Nor is the remedy to be found by the 'ensy process of raising everyone's wages. That would no: make diamonds more plen- tiful, add to the number of mninks or foxes, or increase the percentage of porterhouse steak in a fat steer, Raising wages merely adds to production cost, and at the same time feeds the pasion for over-buying. The reel remedy bo'h for individual and for the nation, is diminished consumption of need- Irss thing». This will divert Inbor to the production of necessities, with a consequent reduction of cost, und st the xame time, provide q margin of income over expendi- 'tures, 5 Of course, these are.all very fundament: economics, but it will do ux no good merely to know it: we must apply it. Failure to apply this doctrine is the cause of most {of the economic discontent that hurts.
