COST TWO HUNDRED
BILLION DOLLARS
Cost of the War to the Allies
Was Half Of This
Sum
DEBT WAS $25,0oo, 900, 900

Washington, Nov. 1S.-The direct
cost of the war for all belligerent
nations to last May /, was reported
at about $175, 100000 by the
Federal Reserve board bulletin, is
sued today, and it Is estimated that
the cost will amount to nearly $780,
O00,O00,00O before the end of this
year. These calculations were COM
piled by the board from various
sources and while their accuracy is
not vouched for, the board believes
the figures are substantially correct.
For purely military and naval pur-
poses, 1t ! sestimated that all belig-
Grants had spent about $132,O00,-
100000 to May l, or about three
fourths oil the total war cost. The
balance represented interest on debt
and other indirect mar expenses.
How the cost mounted as the war
grew in proportion from year to year
is illustrated by tabulations showing
that the mobilization and the first
five months Of the war in 1914 cost
all belligerents about $40, 100000
eco. In 1915 the expenses jumped
to $26,0O0,000,O00; in 1915 they
increased to $3S,OO0, 100000 and in
1917 they were estimated at $780,
O0O,O0O,0O0. This year, expenses
have run only little above the rate
last year:
About $4,000, 900 900 of the to-
tai war cost has been raised by war
loans Of various nations and COM
little by taxation. The
public debt of the principal entente
allies is calculated at approximately
sos, 900, 100000 or more than twice
as much as the aggregate debt Of
the Central Powers, set at $45, 5,OOO,-
600, 900. This does not take into
consideration debt incurred since
last May.
The enormous size of the war
costs and debt is further illustrated
by comparison with the anti-war debt
Of he seven principal bell.Serents
which did not exceed $25, ,0n6, ,O00e,-
600. The cost of supporting this
debt was only about $1,000, 600, 200
i year. Hereafter the annual burden
to pay interest and sinking fund al
Iowances will be not less than S10,-
300 100000 and probably much
more.

| London, Nov. 13.-Premier Lloy(
George has sent {. letter to Bona,
Law, Chancellor of the EXchequel
and leader Of the Unionist party
outlining his policy regarding the
general election and the principal is
sues of the day.
The Premier says he is convinced
that there should be general elec

tion of hostilities.
Lloyd George thinks it should be

being invited to return candidates
who will understake to support the
present Government not only to
prosecute the war to a final end and
to negotiate peace, but to deal with
problems of reconstruction.
The Premier says he desires to
see this carried through on personal
grounds, for during the last two
years he has received the whole
hearted support of the Unionist Par
ty, and the Government has had uni
ty both in aims and in action which
has been remarkable in a coalition
government. The Prime Minister
says he is convinced that such an ar

country, adding;

shall be faced Immediately on the
cessation of hostilities will be hard

Springdale Citizens Testify for The
 Public Benefit

A truthful statement of Spring dale citizen, given in his own words, should convince the most skeptical about the merits of Doan's Kidney Pills. If you suffer from backache, nervousness, sleeplessness, urinary disorders or any form of kidney ills, use tested kidney medicine.
 A Springdale citizen tells of Doan's Kidney Pills.
 Could you demand more convincing proof of merit?
 J. H. Fletcher, prop, grocery, Johnson St., says: For long time suffered from constant backache and didn't seem able to get anything to relieve me My head ached great deal and blamed my kidnyes for it. I had taken Doan's Kidney Pills only short time before the headaches left me and my back got strong too"
 OVER FIVE YEARS LATER MT. Fletcher said: "I know there is no other kidney medicine like Doan's Kidney Pills. l hope all kidney sui great benefit$rdluschmrf cmfwyp ferers will take my word, for great benefit can be had from them.

WAR RISK INSURANCE.
(Statement By The Secretary of Treasury)

desire to remind ALL Ameriea's soldiers and sailors that it is their op- portunty and privilege to keep up thelr insurance with the United States Government after the war has officially terminated and even after they have returned to civil life.
 More than four million officers and men Of the Army and Navy are now insured with the United States Gov ernment, through the Bureau of War Risk Insurance of the Treasury De- partment. The grand total of in- surance is more than thirty-six billion dollars
 In its present form, this insurance IS annual, renewable term insurance at net peace rates, issued against death and total permanent disability Under the provisions of the War Risk Insurance Act, every person holding this insurance may keep it up in this form even after he leaves the service for period of five years. All that IS necessary Is the regular payment of premiums
 Moreover, the law provides that not later than five years after the term ination of the war as declared by Presidential proclamation, the terms insurance shall be converted, without medical examination, into such form or forms of insurance as may be prescribed by regulations and as the insured may request. In accordance with the provisions of the law, these regulations will provide for the right to convert into ordinary life, 20 pay ment life, endowment maturing at age 62, and into other usual forms of insurance. This insurance will con tinue to be Government Insurance The various forms of policies which the Bureau of War Risk Insurance will write are now being prepared.
 Every person in the military or naval service owes 1t to himself and to his family to hold on to Uncle Sans insurance. It is the strongest safest and cheapest life insurance ever written. Just as this insurance relieved our soldiers and sailors of anxiety and misgivings for the well fare of their loved ones and protected them against the hazards of war, so it will continue to protect them and reconstruction and in time of peace
 The advantages Of keeping this in- surance in force cannot be emphasized too strongly The right to continue 1t is valuable right given by the Government to our fighting part of the men as compensation for their services. If this right is lost by allowing insurance to lapse it can never be regained. When Govern ment insurance is allowed to lapse the holder cannot again obtain in surance except from private com panies at considerable increase in cost. Moreover many of the men may have become uninsurable as a result of the war through physical impairment, and if these allow their insurance to lapse they will lose the last opportunity for their families to have the protection of life insurance.
