Americas war bill has reached
S13.s35, ,s77. 900.
with expenditures during the hrst
twenty-seven days Of July Of 1885,
sos, 900 and estimated expenditures for
the whole month Of ;1.4ss.6oo, 900, this
nation is now paying out approxi-
mately s5o.o0o, 900 a day, or over
81, ,000. 900 a hour.
While the July bill will run about
$4,000, 900 under the June total.
Treasury officials indicate that the
war Developments have reached
stage where the cost to the United
States will likely remain for some
time around $500. .0oo, 900 q month.
June, thus far, has been the high
water month of the war, H.612.0OO,-
900 having been expended during that
month.
Some indication Of the growth in
expenditures may be seen in, the fact
that In April, 1917, when we entered
the war, the months expenditures
amounted to only $3.50. .ooO, 900, so TO-
days compilation shows a steady IN

FRENCH WOMAN PAYS
TRIBUTE TO AMERICA

A touching tribute to American
mothers Is paid in the follwoing letter
received by Mrs. Wilson. wife OF the
President, from a French mother:
ut is from the mothers and women
OF France that send you these words
to prove our gratitude for the COM
forting and brotherly support that
these young Americans bring us with
such noble enthusiasm, who are not
afraid OF leaving their families, their
country, and their hopes to come to
our rescue. Alas! I myself have given
my beloved son to my unhappy and
cruelty tried country, and I can un-
derstand the pain of those who see
their sons go SO far. so very far away.
Tell them, those mothers, those
women with the sublime hearts. how
near we are to them in thought and
how moved we are at their sacrifices.
They are our sisters through suffer-
ing and agonizing worries, and we
are borught together through the
same sorrow. That we will never
forget 1t would make me happy.
Madame, TO correspond with some OF
these mothers. II they will send me
few lines.
VERY respectfully. Madame. salute
you,

WOMEN'S SERVICE

s. FRIDAY STORENEWS OFLiANSBURGH6BRO

GREETING that he would be unable to
be present at mass meeting held
last night.
Il am anxious to bear testimony to
the tremendous part played by the
women Of England in this vital epoch
Of human history" the premier wrote
''They have not only borne their bur
den Of sorrow and separation with
unflinchinE fortitude and patience
hut they have assumed an enormous
share of the burdens necessary to the
practical conduct of the war.
'If it had not been for the splendid
manner in which the women came
forward to work in the hospitals and
munition factories. in administrative
offices of all kinds. and in war work
behind the lines. often in daily danger
of their lives, Great Britain and, be-
lieye, all the allies would have been
unable TO withstand the enemy at
tacks of the last few months. For
this service to our common cause
humanity owes them unbounded graf
itude
in the past I have heard 1t said
that women were unfit to vote be-
cause they would be weak when II
came to understanding the issues
and bearing the strains Of a great
war Ny experience in South Wales
last week is what has confirmed me
in the belief that the women there
understand perfectly what is at stake
in this war. I believe they recognize
as clearly as any that there can be
no peace. progress, or happiness In
the world so long as the monster of
militarism is able to stalk unbridled
and unashamed among the weaker
peoples.
''To them this war is a crusade for
righteousness and gentleness, ard
they do not mean to make peace until
the allies have made 1t impossible for
another carnival of violence to befall
mankind. 1 am certain that this
resolution of the women OF South
Wales is but typical of the spirit of
the women OF the rest OF Great Brit
ain.
"This war began in order that force
and brutality might crush out free
dom among men. Its authors cannot
have foreseen that one OF its main ef
manding position and influence in the
public affairs of the world. To their
ennobling influence we look not only
for strength to win the war, but for
Inspiration during the great work of
reconstruction We will have to under
take after victory is won.
The women who have been hocking
to France to work for the allies are
among the foremost leaders in this
great movement OF regeneration. My
message to their representatives gath
cred in Paris is this: Well done.
Carry on. You are helping to create
a new earth for yourselves and your
children"
