The suggestion of the government involves far-reaching modifications in our Christmas customs, but the Council of National Defense lelieves that the people of the country will be glad to aid in a necessary national economy." The foregoing is taken by the War Savings Committee' to mean that Christmis shipments and Christmas mail will be placed secondary to war needs when they are en route. At the War Savings headquarters yesterday it was believed that toys and other Christmas goods would be given even less consideration than pleasure automobiles, the manufacture of which is expected, according to Washington dispatches to be either greatly curtailed or discontinued entirely. As with passenger automobiles, there are no toy -factories in Rochester. The closest toy plant is iu Syracuse. The statement of the Council of National Defense continues: "It is recommended that families who are In the habit of giving each other Christmas gifts shall this year put into the purchase of War Savings Stamps or government ibonds or into the support of war charities the amount of money which usually they collectively spend on thir presents'." Although war stamp sales at the post-office for the week of July 20th established a record, being 5147,470.25, last week the sales slumped to according to the report of Charles J.

Fleckeustein, who has charge of the saleg' for the postofflce. The total for last week was only about 2-i per cent, of that of the previous week. In urging tie giving of Savings Stamps as Christinas presents the Council of National Defense, according to advices received at the headquarters of the Monroe County War Savings Committee, is contemplating either great curtailment or the entire absolution of toy manufacture in the United States. The government already has shut off all importations of toys. Before the toy embargo odder was promulgated last April Importers were getting dolls and other toys from Japan.

These shipments have been discontinued entirely. Shipments of these and similar goods from other neutral countries as well as from all other foreign lands have kt een stopped. In a copy of Phe statement from the Council of National Defense received at the War Savings headquarter, in the Sibley building, the following is contained: "Labor, materials and transportation facilities must all toe conserved this year for war purposes. The policy of the Council of National Defense has been determined upon as a necessary measure of economy. It was adopted for the sake of saving the labor and 'materials which usually go into the manufacture of Christmas gifts, the labor required to handle the Christmas rush in retail stores, and the transportation facilities of the nation railroads, express companies and mails.

"The labor which ordinarily goes into the manufacture or sale of Christmas articles can be utilized In munition plants, shipyards and other- forms of war work; and no shipment of munitions or war supplies should be delayed because the railroads, the express or the mails are con Bed Sheets Pillow Cases 1 Extra special bargains in sheets and cases.
