INCREASE YOUR OUTPUT.

THE ONLY CURE. lL it is necessary for statisticians and historians to know that trade was worse than it has been since the vertiginous slump of 1921. But such . information has ceased to be of any | genuine value .to the ordinary citizen. They might prove to him that the trade of the country is in a bad way. But he knows that already—perhaps too well. He does not need either the Board of Trade returns or the unemployment figures to grind into him a fact which he has been unable to forget for months. There is only one line of action for the ordinary man. He must increase his own output and reduce his own unproductive expenditure. The bricklayer who is concerned for his country will not spout trade figures—he will lay more bricks per hour. The engineer, the sailor, the lawyer, the shopkeeper, the farmer, the architect, must give more service for the same money. They must ' work with more thoroughness and j more intelligence. That, not a study j of Government returns, is the cure —and the only cure—for the bad national trade.”—Daily Telegraph (London) .
