pose of voting bonds to the amount of
$4,000 for a new high school build

LONDON, August 21.-Men and
guns, battleships and aeroplanes are
necessary for war, of course. but the
prime requisite of modern warfare is
money. Financial resources are the
real "sinews of war and, in a long
drawn out conflict, money is more
necessary even than soldiers. arms
and ammunition.
/. 1t has been estimated by experts
that with Germany England. France
Russia. Austria-Hungar and Seryia
at war. the daily cost will aggregate
s54. 100000. Military men predict
that Italy, Holland and perhaps Tur
key and the Balkan States will gel
into the conflict. One hundred mil
lion dollars would then be fair

the huge confagration

France appealed to New York bank
ers for loan of S100,000,000. Had
this loan been made, the money
would not be sent to France. II
would be left in the United States
and its equivalent in foodstuffs and
non-contraband supplies would be
shipped from New York TO France.
