OUR WASHINGTON LETTER.


Appropriations for purely military
and naval objects for the next fiscal
year will aggregate approximately
$685., 100000. This is leaving. out Of the
calculation all deficiency appropriations
of money to be expended during the
fiscal, which will aggregate at least
$40 100000 more and will bring the total
appropriations for military and naval
objects made by the present session of
Congress up to the enormous of 405, Co.,
0o0. This sum,of course, includes PEN
slons, which amount to about 1856, 000,-
600. Subtracting this there remains q
expenditure for current military and
naval expenses of s25o,o0O,oOo. Com
parison of these figures with the expen-
ditures of other great nations, which
vastly exceed the United States in their
naval and military ornaments, will be
instructive. Germany spends s194, 900,
600 IN round numbers annually for her
army and navy; England is spending
1926, 900, 900 for her present war; Russ
ia spends an even S2OO,OOO,0O year.

tainly seem to be in order.
