As to the possible loss that a Euro
pean wal would impose on the bel
ligerent countries a London CORES
Dondent Of the New York Times was
informed by a high financial author
ity that il the greatest catastrophe of
al occurred, the cost would scarcely
be less than $4,000, goo, 900, all of
which would have TO be drawn from
the u of industry from the
worlds working capital. This au-
thority points out that the South

times as much the total would be
So, 500, 600 900, which is probably a
very conservative estimate.
The money publicly raised in Lon
don every twelve months is about
81, 600, 900, 600, so a war on a S.
900, 1000, 900 scale would be draining
he capital market directly of five
years supplies of the greatest money
md capital in the world.
But when the direct cost of the
var has been calculated and the bills
paid to the last cent, the world
would only be beginning t. realize
the waste, only touching the edge of
the actual loss. In every part of the
world today capital is in a difficult
and strained position. The supply is
not adequate, and the amounts al
ready expended in industry are jeop-
ardized because further amounts are
not at hand to keep the works mov
