Government Frowns on Thrift Stamps as Premiums By Associated Press Washington, Oeti 10.—■' The prac tice by dome merchants of giving wnf savings stamps as premiums with pUruhaseS is strongly condemn ed by the Treasury. "The war savings movement Was created to help the people of the United States win {he war," said a Treasury official In a statement to day, "When a retill dealer gives away a war savings stamp he does so that he can sell a man something the man does not need. The govern ment gets 2S cents from the dealer and the dealer gets f5 or 110 from the customer for the articles the customer ought no tto have bought, and which the war Industries board and the War Department cannot spare the facilities' and labor to manufacture. Thus the transaction goes round the circle and precisely defoats the war savings movement."
