lions for our end Of the war in one yeai
is an appealing figure. The mind can.
not grasp t. Twenty-four billions i.
not very far from our total estimated
national Income Of flve years ago. Il Is
certainly not less than one-haIf of our
present nominal national income
Where is it all going to come from
The first year Of the war cost us over
ten billions, which was somewhere
around 25 per cent Of the estimated in
come OF all the people Of the country
Yet we did not spend ten billions less
we did not buy or use less coal or iron
or food or clothing-or luxuries. on
the contrary, although the amounts OF
the great basic products like coal and
iron were slightly less than the pre-
ceding year, the general evidence Is that
the total amount Of goods consumed in
the whole country was the greatest in
our history.
This economic riddle deepens when
we examine the conditions in Great
Britain 10 is estimated that the British
have modified to date 100000 men.
This Is about one-thlrd Of all the avail
able "hands," male and female, in Brit
ain in normal times. In the face OF this
huge draft upon the nations available
industrial power, the actual total pro-
duction Of goods is apparently, as in
this country. greater today than ever
before in its history. The total of war
expenditures for the present year Is es-
timated at around thirteen billions, and
thirteen billions is more than the es-
timated income Of Great Britain and
Ireland for the year in which the war
began. Where can il get IL?
What is true Of Britain is true equal
ly OF France and Germany and every
warning nation. Il is probable that the
total expenditures for war purposes this
coming year among all the nations will
exceed, in pounds, dollars and marks,
the total maximum income Of all these
countries in estimated times Of peace.
Germany's estimated income, for ex-
ample, for 1914 was about the same as
that OF Britain; that is TO say, around
eleven or twelve billions, although Ger
manys population is one-half greater.
And, as in the case Of Great Britain, its
outlays now exceed this sum. We re-
peat: How can it be done?
Part Of the mystery is dispelled when
we consider the sheer illusion Of prices.
The average Of all prices in Britain
has risen, on the evidence Of the Lon
don Economists" index number. about
$50 per cent. That is to say, $1,000
100000 worth Of goods would now cost
S2s.0O0000,OO0. This is what we mean
when we say that the imitation Of prices
Through credit inflation) has more than
doubled the cost Of the war to that
country. Actually, then, war expen-
diture Of thirteen billions does not
mean the equivalent OF 100 per cent OF
the national income, but less than 90
per cent.
In the United States the rise in prices
has been somewhat less-according to

This is the way Miss Elizabeth Boies,
in charge Of the work in Russia, wrote
of the associations beginning in Petro-
grad:

| 400 per cent, and according TO the Blu
reau Of Labors index number for
wholesale prices only about so per cent
Therefore if-to take a figure which is
nearly pure guesswork-our national in
come In 1914 was around twenty-five
! billions IL might be somewhere around
/ fifty billions now. So, as in Great Brit
ain, twenty-four billions would not be
equal to 100 per cent Of our income, but
not over so per cent.
But even this would mean an as
tonishing increase in national energy
| If it were represented by these per-
centages. 1t is not. II you draw off, as
In Britain, one-third the industrial
strength OF a country and feed and pay
it better than IL has even been fed be-
fore, you considerably swell the ma
tional expenditure, but not by any
means by the amount Of the govern
ments outlay. All these men had to
be fed before,
There is yet another Offset. In esti-
mates Of our cOuntry's income no ac-
count is usually taken Of the vast
amount Of the unpaid labor OF women
and children as housekeepers and
nurses. Yet the rearing Of babes is
in every other country In the world.
In war time, by the transfer Of great
number Of women to war and other
paid work, the apparent income of the
country is very considerably swollen,
perhaps by 10 to 20 per cent.
Yet when all these possible offsets
are made there still remains a very con-
siderable item Of increased expenditure
which must be accounted for. That is
TO say, there must be in war time a
very remarkable increase in national
efficiency. There must be on the whole
very marked increase in the actual
production and consumption Of goods
and services. Nothing else could eX-
plain why it is that this country and
Britain and France and Germany could
go on spending as they never spent be-
fore, consuming more apparently out
side Of the war than they ever con-
cumed before, and still have tens Of
billions to spend on the business OF
war. All the evidence goes to show
that in spite Of every effort the con-
sumption OF luxuries in all the warning
is greater today than has ever
been known. IL is nonsense to talk
about this being paid for by future gen.
eratlons. It is paid for on the spot,
for every pound and barrel and yard'

ice The poet Heine long ago sorrow
fully reflected upon the difficulty Of
roast ducks from the sky. No
more can you pull down out Of the blue
diamonds and silks and automobiles.
They are all made and paid for by the
days wage.
There is. therefore, beyond all ques-
ton an enormous stimulus from the i'm
pact OF war. In times Of peace it is
evident that even with the greatest
rivalry OF the nations and the almost
maniacal thirst to make money among
all the people. the nations were not

70, as that capacity exists today.
