Necessity for practice of strictest economy and attainment, of the highest degree of efficiency by American in dustries io successfully meet competition, competi-tion, both local and foreign, after the war, was pointed out by W. W, Armstrong, Arm-strong, federal food aud fuel administrator, admin-istrator, in an address to the Utah Society So-ciety of Electrical Contractors and Dealers yesterday at the Commercial club. Special reference was made to the training in efficiency and economy acquired ac-quired by the men in the i trenches which, without question, will be extended ex-tended to the commercial life of the nations at the close of the great conflict con-flict when each country begins to battle bat-tle for supremacy in world trade. While the opinion was expressed that the greatest competition would be offered of-fered by European nations, Mr. Armstrong Arm-strong also pointed out that the American Ameri-can soldiers would receive similar training, and unless the lessons in economy were learned and put into practice by the men at home, they must give way to commercial competition competi-tion offered after the war by the clear-thinking, clear-thinking, efficiently trained men now at the front.
