lit is all we'll enough for Congress to
Iappi iopriate, but appropriations do
not fight the war. Indeed. it is all
well enough for the secretary CT the
treasury to raise credits, but credits
do Tot fight the war. The war is GO
ins, to be fought by the output of
the industrial establishments of the
country, and what he must really
raise will be measured by what they
REILLY can produce. / think the sue
cess that has attended these Liberty
Loans has certainly been the most
remarkable thing In financial his
tory, and more remarkable than the
amount has been the number of sub
srrihers. This last loan was SUD-
seIibed for by 100000 people. That
shows how completely the patriotism

vice: he has had advice from high
quarters, and it has certainly no:
been unanimous. 1t has left him to
choose a course between many ad-
visers, and I believe he has chosen
most wisely. But it seems to me tha.
nothing that he has done has shown
a greater vision, nothing that he has
done will have more permanent in

recommendations to Congress for the

Mr.. President and Secretary and
Gentlemen:
You have heard something Of the
problems of finance told in simple,
lucid form by the man who has laid
cn his shoulders today the greatest
problems in finance that ever fell
upoL the shoulders of any man. The
size of this struggle, measured in
dollars, is SO gigantic that few peo-
pie, If any one, have fully realized
what the totals mean. Congress has
appropriated more than nineteen bill
lion dollars for expenditures this
year. From the time that Alexande-
hamilton sat in the chair now oc
cuuied by Secretary McAdoo, down
through all the years of our govern
ment, through the various wars dowa
tn the beginning of this war, the to-
tai expenditure for every purpose

ment. was $26,3OO, 900, 900; and
here this man is asked to raise $1S,.

little the size of it. His success
