SERIOUS MATTER FOR FRANCE
How to eep Up with the Procession with
a Waning Population.


Paris, July l2.-The naval expendi-
proposed to be S62 10000, which nj
first sight seems to be 100000 less
than in 1901. but If it is taken into ac-
count that the cost of maintaining the
marine infantry and artillery, amount
ing to about S5,400,0OO has been trans.
ferrcd from the navy to the ministries
of war and THE colonies. it is found
that the money that France intends
to spend upon the navy during 1897
is iii reality s2,3O0,OO0 in excess of the
naval expenses of the current year.
1t Is matter of serious considera-
ton for the French whether they are
not spending upon their navy moro
than their national resources warrant
France has now piled up debt in
yolving an annual charge forinteresto of
nearly $2OO.O0O,O COO or. in other words,
every man. woman and child in
France has now to pay IS per annum
for interest on the national debt. The
army costs the country S132,ooO.0OO a
year. and the total expenditure for
1902 is officially proposed to be S72O.-
OOO,O 600.
Moreover. reflections upon the
= tFe1lcn census cnuSe renewed uneaSl-
ness. Last March the population in
round numbers was 3S.Goo.oO0. being
an increas of only 10000 since 1896,
and even this meager result is mostly
4 accounted for by Paris and its sub
1 burhs. where the increase has been
/ 292ooo due principally to foreign i'm
migration, so that in the rest of France
the population has been augmented by
only $4,000 during the last five years
4 That Is to say, for military and naval
4 purposes the population is almost sta
tionary. and in this respect France
stands alone among the great nations
| of Europe.
Under these conditions NJ. Jaures
! the socialist leader, and many ad
/ vanced thinkers among the radicals
and radical socialists, hold that it Is
| impossible for France to have at tht
same time navy and army of the
/ first rank, simply because she has no
the resources of men and money t.
maintain both.
