THOSE WHO WAVE SUFFERED
THROUGH WAR SERVICE
TO BE GIVER PREFERENCE
AT WORK ON THEIR RETURN
(By Associated Press

New York, Aug. 27.-The use OF sol
dier cripples in preference to anyone
else, wherever possible after the war,
will be one of the plans discussed at
the War Work Meeting of the Amer
lean Institute of Mining Engineers,
which opens in Colorado on Sept.
and continues for six days. The con-
vention will be attended by several
hundred prominent mining companies
OF the country.
Mining engineers are taking a spe-
cial interest in the problem OF the
employment of cripples after the war,
and each of the fifteen sections OF the
national institute is undertaking in
diyidual work tending to prevent the
crippled soldier from being charge
on the public-at least SO far as the
mining industry is concerned. The
work is being done In direct cooper
alton with the government through
some of the hundreds Of American In
stitute members connected with war
work departments at Washington.

WAR TAX ARTICLE NO. 9

Washington, Aug. 27.-lt has been
said that the real financial founda-
ton of the United States was laid
during the period intervening between
the War of 1912 and the War Of Mex
ico, which began in May 1S4S.
It was during that period that the
people began to feel their nationhood
in a marked degree, settlements were
extended to the Pacific coast and
continual stream of desirable immi-
grants focked to the United States
In the two or three wears immedl-
ately preceding the Mexican War
more than 100000 immigrants landed
on American shores and every one
was welcome, as the industrial and
agricultural expansion of the country
was so great that there were splendid
opportunities BY 1876 there were
5 900 miles of railroad lines in opera
ton and they were being ropidly ex'
tended.
Another important event which had
direct bearing on the financial pros
neritv of the United States was the
removal of import duties by England
in 1912. This, with the growth OF the
manufacturing industry IN England
,caused tremendous importation from
this country particularly OF cotton and
food products and 1t had stimulating
effect upon the entire nation.
The financial system of the country
rested upon sound basis. Prejudice
against internal taxation which hac
manifested itself during the early
days and which was felt especially
during the War of 1872, had di5ap
neared entirely and except for certa'r
no,itical measures, and those OF
minor nature, the people were frmi!
united and cheerfuly met The eXeis'
duties which the exigencies OF TN
times placed upon them. The bankinl
svstem had been reorganized, SUB
treasures been established and tn
country was far better prepared L
enter into war with Mexico than
had been to undertake the seeon
war with England in 1872.
The Mexican War was of short dur
alton. lasting only about two years
, and 1t caused no serious financial dc
pression. The revenue from impor
!, duties and internal taxation was sue
that there was no need to adopt
MAN Of emergency taxation with IN
!, result that no extra burden was place
upon the people.
The expenditures of the War IN
partment from April :, 1S46, to Apr
1s4s were ss0,s45 1t6, as cou'par'

with the expenditure Of S21,99l,l23
during the previous three years. Dur
ing the period Of the war the Navy
Department spent $1S,753,OO0, which
was little more than s4,OO0oO in
excess of what that department had
expended for the two and a half years
before the war.
To meet the excess of $63,6o5,621,
Congress decided upon the method
adopted during the war of 1917 and
authorized several issues of treasury
notes and government stock. The re-
,sults were far different, however, for,
while the issues during the War OF
1872 were disposed Of with great dif-
ficulty and at least one issued had to
,be sold below par, the issues OF lS4e
were in such demand that they were
subscribed and under one OF the
loan acts, when subscriptions were
invited for $1S,OOO,O0O, bids were re-
ceived for s57,723,OOO and these were
made at rates varying from one-eighth
Of one per cent to two per cent more
than par.
This was the first loan negotiated
on basis OF this kind since the foun-
dation of the government and II was
due entirely to the splendid prosper
Iitv OF the times and the solidity ol
public credit.
Following the war period the coun'
try continued to expand commercially
