Then ii was bought by Joseph Ford y

ENEMY AGAIN HURLS HUGE MASS
OF TROOPS AGAINST DEFENSES
OF IMPORTANT CITY OF AMlENS
ONE YEAR OF VAR
COST $4,000, 100000
More Than 0ne-Half of Amount Went
in Loans to the Allies and VIII
Be Repaid.

Washington, ID. c., April 5.--Nine bill
lion dollars is the approximate cost TO
the United States of one year OF war.
More than one.half has gone IN loans
TO allies and will be repaid eventuallyi
over one.third has been spent Tor the
army and military establishment; one
tenth for the navy and one'iiiteenth Tor
shipbulding,
just one sixth Of this big war cost has
been raised by taxation and other ordi-
nary sources of revenue. and the balance
has come from sales of Liberty bonds
and certificates of indebtedness.
Enormous as these war expenditures
may seem to n country whose govern
ment in peace times costs between 800.
10000 and $s00,0OOO00, they arc less
than Great Britain's and are only about
two-thirds of estimates made by officials
less than q year ago. Slow progress oil
the shipbuilding program and the re-
tarding OF the outpouring ot war sup.
plies are regarded by officials as the chief
reasons why expenses did not equal esti'
mates.
Government expenses now arc running
about billion dollars month, win
somewhat less than half going to allies
who spend the greater part OF their loans
for war supplies in this country.
Since the declaration Of war April .,
1916. the governments actual eNpendl'
tures have becn more than S9.s00.0OO,0 900,
but about SS00000,O00 of this sum would
have been spent for normal activities
even If the United States had not entered
the war.
Ordinary expenditures, under which
the treasury classtfies all outlays
for operation of the governmental ma
chincrv and war enterprises, since the
declaration of war have been approx.
