SECRETARY M'ADOO TELLS
HOW u. S. FINANCED WAR
Actuai Cost of Conflict to America to
Date Is $13,222,-
100000.

Washington, Dec. 5.-The financial
history of Americas part in the war
is set forth by Secretary McAdoo- in
his annual report drafted before his
resignation, and made public by the
treasury. 1t is the history OF how
the American people paid billions In
taxes, raised in four great Liberty
loans. and created tremendous pool
of credit with which the treasury,
through it's many war agencies. paid
the bills of the army and navy. the
shipping board and other government
departments, loaned billions to the al
lies and millions to war industries,
helped support the families OF soldiers
and sailors and tided farmers over Pc
RODS of financial stringency.
1.-THE payment into the treasury or
vast sums in war taxes and from bona
Sales" said Secretary McAdoo, ana
the transformation of our varied and
complex economic life to the supreme
task of winning the war have been
accomplished without shock or imam
cial disturbance. The credit and bust
ness structure of the nation remains
sound and strong. The results of the
four Liberty loans are tribute to
the patriotism of the American peo-
pie and the economic strength OF
the nation.
McAdoo's Final Accounting.
The report constitutes Secretary Nc
Adoo's final accounting of his steward
ship before retiring as the nations
finance minister.
For the 10 months ending last June

the actual cost of the war, with allow
ances for the governments ordinary
expenses in ordinary times, amounted

A
World Crime
By BLISS CARAVAN
of The ViQT0nfes

Only a remnant of the ancient Ar
menian race remains, mostly old men
and children. The rest of it has been
wiped out by the Turk and the Teu-
ton, Turkish racial animosity directed
by cold-blooded Teuton efficiency and
brutishness. We are asked In the
name of humanity to save the remain
ing sufferers from starvation, and
their race from obliteration.
The tale of this episode of the great
war is narrowing one, and it will last
until all history fades out forever. and
this is a good time to recall it--good
for us who have lived for four years
millions were living in hell.
The story cannot be told fully yet,
but there are Incidents pages in the
horrible chapter, which should fill us
with implacable horror of the Teuton-
Turk and moving, active pity for his
victims.
The Armenian atrOcity had one con-
cept1on and one purpose but it was
carried out in various ways. The first
portion of the Armenian race to feel
the blow was not the native population
OF Armenia proper, but the scattered
Armenian communities in various
Turkish towns and cities. The pro-
cedure in over fifty places through
Anatolia was Identical The same di-
rections from ConStantinople were ex-
actly carried out in each case by the
local authorities, and in one or two in
stances where these authorities were
too humane to fulfill their monstrous
orders they were removed and more
rigorous officers put in their places.
Usually the procedure was in this
wise.
The First Crueities.
ION given day the streets of what
ever town it might be were occupied
by the local gendarmerie with fixed
bayonets, and the governor summoned
all able-bodied men Of Armenian race
that had been exempted from military
draft to present themselves now on
pain of death. 'Able-bOdied' included
any male between fifteen and seventy
years of age, and these were all
marched out of the town by the
gendarmes. They had not far to CO.
for the gendarmerie had been re-en-
forced for the purpose from the gaOls,
and the brigandS and kurds were
waiting in the hills. They were wait
ing to murder the prisoners. The first
secluded valley witnessed their whole
sale massacre, and acquitted of their
task the gendarmes marched leisurely
into town.
'This was the first act 1t preceded
the pitiful possibility of resistance to
the second, which was more ingenious
and far-reaching. The women, old men
and children, who made up the re-
mainder of the Armenian population,
were not given notice of deportation
within a fixed term-a week or ten
days. Whole households were uprOot-
ed and driven off to an unknown desti-
nation, while their homes and property
were transferred to Moslems."
To read of such things is to imagine
that these victims must have been saw

able creatures, the lowest grade of hu-
