TAXES VS.. LOANS.

Germany has raised less thar =
per cent OF her war expenses from
taxation. The war is thus almost
entirely financed by mortgaging her
national resources. The mortgage
already amounts to about halt her
wealth.
Italy has raised II per cent OF her
war cost by taxation and the rest
by loans. France has raised about
10 per cent by taxation. and Great
Britain nearly 20 per cent.
The United States proposes to
raise no less than 40 per cent by
taxation.
The war budget for next year is
estimated at $24,0O0,00O,OOO. De
ducting $6,000,000,0OO for loans to
our allies, we have an actual eX-
penditure of $l8,000,0OO,OOO, OF
which congress expects to raise So,-
OOO,OO0,000 by taxes and the rest by
bond issues. OF this $4,000 ,OOO,OW
about Sc, 400, 100000 is to come from
war profits and incomes.
The total budget is beyond any
expenditure ever made by any ma
tion. The sum OF $4,000, 100000 is
Jar more than anybody ever dream
cd of collecting from any people by
taxation in one year, But there Is
no question OF our being able to pay
that much out of our current in
come. without crippling our industry
and finance.
1t is sound policy, too. We shall
be glad OF it when the war is over
and we find that we have already
paid nearly half the cost OF it, while
most of the other bclligerents, un-
able or unwilling to endure heavy
taxation, emerge with an appalling
burden. We shall be in the bes
plight OF ALL and Germany will be
the worst. We shall be solvent
with our war bonds in big demand
and Germany will be bankrupt.
That will be our second victory
Even ii the present German govern
ment survives the war it will hard
~ survive national bankruptcy.

In yard or street or household lot.

THE rich aquatic resources OF
Alaska have not heretofore received
the attention they deserve. One or
two fisheries OF great importance have

time to be an economic importance to
these almost unused fish foods which
will greatly contribute to the wealth
of Alaska.

these nations.
Distribution OF tonnage, as the war

factor in the outcome. Differences
Of opinion as TO whether food. sup

Probably 25.00O.O0o tons OF shipping
