FINANCING THE WAR

The United states is financing !
itself in this war by loans and |
taxes. 1t obtains funds from the !
people, some by taxation and
some by the sale Of bonds, and /
then it goes into the markets and
buys from the people what it
needs. The people supply the
government with money and the
government with this money
buys from the people what it
needs for the war.
There are three sources from
which the United States can draw
the sinews OF war. First is the
fixed property of the nation.
This represents our farms, fac
tories, mines, railways and all
other property, including accu-
mulated savings. From the cor
pus or body of none Of these,
except the accumulated savings,
will the gVernment obtain war
funds, and even from the accu-
mulated savings it will draw a
relatively small portion. These
accumulated savings are invested
in industries and business which
are necessary to the country
welfare and prosperity and it is
only that portion Of these savings
which are seeking investment
that the government will receive
in exchange for bonds.
The second and the great
source from which the govern
ment is to derive its war fund is
the wealth produced during the
war. Part Of this it will obtain
by taxation and part in exchange
for bonds. The annual prOduc-
ton Of the United States, from
its farms, mines, factories, and
other sources, amounts to fifty
billion dollars year and out OF
this fifty billion dollags will come
the funds, part from taxes and
part from the sale Of bonds, with
which the United States will
finance itself during this war.
By taxation this generation
will pay its portion of the cost
of the war. BY the sale of bonds
the next generation is called upon
to pay its portion, asd this last
portion will be paid from the
wealth production after the war.
By this method the capital Of
lnt OOunliNs us sources OF IN
come and wealth, are unimpaired
IT, is only the yearly increment
OF this property that is called
upon to bear a portion of the
cost of the war. Thus despite
the waste of war and the destruc-
ton of property involved the
country may emerge from the
conflict stronger financially
more efficient and even Weather
than before. What the govern
ment receives it receives from
the people without impairing the
sources Of wealth Of the country
and passes it back to the people
in exchange for the productions
OF the country. 1t is in a way
only a shifting of credits.
The government collects the
current taxes and by means oil
bonds anticipates taxes of the
years to come, and all the money
thus acquired passes back into
the hands of the Taxpayers
This is why governments which
follow sound economic methods
not only are not impoverished by
wars but sometimes emerge the
stronger as England did after the
NapOleOnic wars and the United
States did after our great CiVi
War.
