the beginning of the Revolution. Tit
failure of the bills of credit and tbs
paucity Of the revenue being secont
through taxation, led congress to au
thorize the borrowing OF $1,000 0l
at the rate Of 4 per cent. The lead
ers received indented certificate!
which may rightfully be considered
the forerunners of the Liberty Bonds
It was found necessary at a Later
period to raise the interest rate to {
per cent, but through four loans the
amount realized was only $3,7S7,000
In September, 1777, the American en-
voys secured the first loan from
France, and that resulted In such a
stimulation Of the domestic loans
that from that time until the loan Of
fices closed, $7,6S4, 900 in specie
was subscribed.
The foreign loans obtained by the
struggling colonies during their war
for independence are particularly in
teresting at the present time when
the United States is making such
tremendous loans to the various allied
countries. Through benjamin Frank
lin, Gouveneur Morris and others
funds were obtained either in loans
or subsidies from the governments
of France and Spain and from pri-
vate banks in Holland. France grant
ed subsidies of 100000 livres in
1777 and 5000, 900 livres in 1881. In
all, these sums, which may be re-
garded as gifts, amounted to 1885,
500.
The United States borrowed from
France between 1777 and 1888 the
total sum of $685., 800, while Holland
loaned the struggling nation $780,
900 and Spain furnished $174,117-a
total of $7,830,517. Nor must 1t be
forgotten that France spent at least
$4,000, 900 on the army which she
sent to the aid Of the colonies.
At the beginning OF 17Ss-ten years
after the declaration Of independence
indebtedness Of the national
government was 39,323,SS6. This
was divided as follows: Foreign, ST.
3 1,SS6; domestic loan certificates,
81, 5S5, 900; unliquidated certificates
of Indebtedness, SIG, 70S, 900: arrears
of interest IN domestic debt, $3,109,-
QUO. These figures are trivial as COM
pared to those representing the war
debt of today, but this Indebtedness
weighed far more heavily upon the
people of that time than the tremend-
Gus expenditure of the present does
upon the American public today.
1t al no small matter for the
colonials and their descendants to
so shape the machinery of the gov
eminent that results could be obtain
ed smoothly and efficiently. There
were many ups and downs, successes
and failures, but the foundation laid
in those trying times In the foun-
dalton upon which the American
financial system rests at the pres
emit time, and it is because Of the
of that foundation that the
United States has been enabled to
take such an important part in the
world struggle for democracy.

would have facilitated the raising OF
war revenue.
The colonials could not bring them
selves to the point of giving what
they considered too much power to a
limited group of men representing
centralized government, and while
the congress could enact legislation
for an army and navy, it could do no
more than make suggestions to the
various states, regarding the manner
in which these fighting forces were
to be maintained. AS a result, there
was a great amount Of governmental
confusion, and while at least three
systems Of raising revenue were sug-
gested, there was no definite plan as
to the way in which these methods
were to be adjusted to one another.
Greatest reliance was placed at
first upon the issue of bills Of credit
some foreign loans we're negotiated;
domestic loans were made and a
nominal sum was RELAXED through
taxes levied by the states. The bills
of credit, however, rested upon what
proved to be on unsound basis.
Within Ii week after the Battle Of
Bunker Hill, authority was given for
an issue Of $2,0O0,000 In credit bills,
and the amount to be redeemed from
1879 and 1882 was carefully appor-
toned among the colonies. Other
issues followed, the total issue being
about $241, $50, $50, but at no time
was that amount in circulation and
seldom was II acceptable at face
value. In 1878 depreciation became
very marked and from January 10
May of that year. the value of the
bills varied from 20 to 1 to 38 IL
to /. falN e 8ls
The domestic loans were more sue
cessful, although, with the exception
of one small loan for the purchase
Of gun powder in June. 1775; these
were not authorized until October,

Washington, Aug. 14--At a time
when Americans are thinking in war
terms of billions of dollars which
must be raised by domestic loans and
taxation it is interesting to examine
the methods employed to finance the
first American war-the war of in
dependence 4ff
The total cost Of the Revolution,
not including the expenditures OF the
individual states, has been estimated
at about $SO,0OO,OOO, a good deal less
than one days cost Of the present
war, The sum is truly insignificant
as compared with the $2400OsOOOS

Americas share Of the present world
