The Outlook For Money.

The estimate of government expendi-
lures for the current fiscal year. ending
June 80, 1919, is $a4.000,0O0.0 900. This
may turn out to be an overestimate
since 1t may be impossible to find
enough labor and materials on which to
expend such a vast sum, but at present
the only safe plan is to assume that the
estimate ID approximately correct.
1t is proposed to raise one-third OF
this by taxation--altho in our opinion
this is too large proportion--and the
remaining two-thirds by sales of bonds.
So far as the immediate effect on the
supply of Investment capital is con-
|cerned, there will be little difference
between the two methods. Both will
mean the diversion OF our wealth into
war expenditures.
The increase in wealth in the United
States has been estimated at $4,000
100000 a year. This may have increased
somewhat recently under the pressure
of war production and with the rise in
oil prices. On the other hand, several
millions OF soldiers are being with
drawn from productive work, which
would tend to reduce our accumulation
of wealth. Also. it will probably be
impossible to draw all of this increase
of wealth into war channels.
At best, therefore. government ex-

II a note Is coming due on q certain
date the maker of it begins to arrange
for an extension or the payment Of in
terest. He knows he must do II. His
taxes are arranged for. They must be
paid.
The new bond issue is near at hand.
It isn't long to Sept. "a.
There will be no escape from the
bond purchase. 1t is as sure az death
and taxes Every man who can buy
bonds, and some of US who don't know
just how we are going to. must take
our allotment,
It il time right now to figure out
how we are going to do 1t. It must be
done by savings or thru income. The
banks can't take care Of the bond
themselves It Is not up to them more
than 1t Is to us. The banks must have
money to loan to those who must have
It to carry on the activities Of labor
and production. They can do their
share of course but they can not and
ought not to take our share.
How are you going to buy your
bonds this time? Have you got the
money! How are you going to get It?
Those are the questions. The question
Of whether or not you are going to buy
a bond has been settled. We are going
to buy. willingly most of US hut any
way we are going to buy. Nobody will
be permitted to shirk. Our luxuries
and our desires will not be consideled
from the san1e angle as we are prone
to consider them. Well buy or wish

G good Judgment and thrift and

raYA Real CLEANING.

The Sioux City Journal resents the
implication OF Des Moines newspa
per that the metropolis on the Missouri
is sunk in sin and iniquity. Admitting
that Bookkeeping and solicitation by
prostitutes goes on on the streets of
the city the Journal denies the imputa-
ton that Sioux City is a Gomorrah
and At for destruction by a wrahtful
providence. The article which asserted
so much 1t says was written by a
Sioux Cityan who is accused Of
malevolence.
Now q considerable part Of the in
dictment and defense u quite true no
doubt. Some part q the indictment
the Journal plead - - guilty. But
there are number of good people In
Sioux City who would without doubt
get warning to move to Marshalltown
or some other good. clean town II the
home town were to be destroyed in the
custom OF the good old bible times.
There are 20 many that the state had
high hopes Of Sioux City and began to
look upon that town as a re6orme.
"Hafevolence" is not new thing in
communications from one town to an
other. When the booze interests to
which were joined all other vicious in
terests were sending out news stuff
they "malevolently'' grew grass in the
streets, vacated half the stores and
homes In town with their reports on
dry towns. In clean up fights both sides
usually see the worst Of the other. But
the difference between decency and
vice remains the tame old difference.
Sioux City may have got the worst
Of 1t in this particular story. But Sioux
City must "dreo her own wierd" as to
the notoriety she has attained. It isn't
that she isn't as bad as painted but
that she seems to lack the spirit to
clean up and clean out thoroughly. She
Is big and prosperous and strong. q

west. She is big enough and strong
enough to clean up and clean out right
II she goes about the Job sincerely to
make job Of it. And she ought to
do 1t for her own good and the good Of
the state.
The suggestion is that Sioux City
gives too much consideration to o.
minor element Of her population with
which she could dispense very we'll.
That she can't forget the old days
when things went wide open not only
in Sioux City. but everywhere in Iowa.
That she let's the gang hang around
when she ought to give it the hurdy

And now. Of course, you remember

in case you don't. let me tell you.
Billy Bunny was caught in a box trap.
He had hoped inside to nibble at a
carrot, and then. all Of sudden, quick
err than wink, the door had slammed
to and--there you are, and there was
Billy Bunny prisoner! And if Robbie
Redbreast hadn't been near just at that
time, goodness knows what would have
ever become of that poor little rabbit
Well, that kind little bird flew away
as fast as he could and pretty soon he
came to the cave of the Friendly Brown
Bear. and wasn't it lucky, he was at
home? Yes. sir! He was sitting just
outside his cave door on a bench smok-
ing corncob pipe. But when he heard
what had happened to Billy Bunny he
Rocked the ashes out of that pipe,
click, click, just like that, and took
down his big az, which was hung up
on a peg behind the door, and started
right of for the Pleasant Meadow. But
he couldn'ts run quite as fast as the
little robin could fly. but anyway, ii
wasn't very long before he came up to
the box in which the little rabbit was
caught.
Hello, Billy Bunny" said the kind
old bear, bending down and placing. his
