Financing the War.

Inc United States is financing IT.
self 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 mon
ey 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, factories,
mines, railways and all other prop
erty including accumulated savings.
From the corpus or body of none of
these, except the accumulated saw
ings, will the government obtain
war funds, and even from the ac-
Cumulated savings il will draw a
relatively small portion These ac-
cumulated savings are invested in
industries and business which are
( necessary to the country's welfare
and prosperity and it is only that
portion of these savings which are
seeking investment that the govern
ment will receive in exchange for
/ bonds.
: The second and the great source
from which the government is to
derive its war fund is the wealth
/ produced during the war. Part IF
this it will obtain by taxation and
/ part in exchange for bonds The
annual production Of the United
States from its farms mines. fac
tories, and other sources. amounts
to fifty billion dollars a year and
out of this fifty billion dollars 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 # the
war. BY the sale Of bonds the
next generation is called upon to
pay its portion. and this last por-
ton will be paid from the wealth
production after the war.
By this method the capital Of the
country, its sources of income and
wealth. are unimpaired. 1t is only
the yearly increment of this prop
erty that is called upon to bear
portion of the cost of the war
Thus despite the waste of war and
the destruction of property involv-
ed the country may emerge from
conflict stronger financially, more
efficient and even Wealthier than
before What the government re
ceiveS it receives from the people
without impairne the sources Of
the wealth of the country, and
passes it back to the people in ex-
change for the productions of the
country 1t is in a way only a
shifting of credits
The government collects the cur
rent taxes and by means Of bonds
anticipates taxes Of the years to
come, and all the money thus ac-
quired 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 NapDleonic
wars and the United StteS did
after our great Civil War

NEGRO OFFICERS FOR
NEGRO TROOPS

Now that the signs of the
times point unerringly to hostili-
ties between this country and
Germany, we unhesitatingly go
on record for Negro officers for
Negro troops.
We call upon every able-bod-
led man who is eligible for ser
vice to enlist and do what he can
for the salvation of the nation,
but we insist that they be officer
eb by men of their own race from
corporal to colonel.
In every field of endeavor the
black man has made good when
given the chance and we are
doubly sure he will make more
than good if placed in command
of soldiers of his own race. We
think it but fair and just that the
Negro be given this chance to
show the metal of which he is
made. Negroes are brave and
have been tried and stood the
fiery test in years agone and will
do it again if given the oppor-
tunity. Negroes have always
borne the burden in the heat of
the day, viz, at Bunker Hill, at
San Juan, at Carrizal and other
places too numerous to mention.
Yes, give us Negro officers for
Negro troopers, and then you'll
see some sure enough battles.
Let us have them, and the whole
world will applaud the wisdom
of the powers that be. Negro
officers have made their mark in
France, Brazil and other coun-
tries, then why can't they be
had in Uncle Sans domain.
