Enormous Outlay of United

WAR AC SyITIES
yo,ooo,ooo A DAY
The e es Are Calling for
Less Money from the
United States

Washington, d, c., June 29.--The gov
ernment to-day closed its books for the
fiscal year just ending-the first full
fiscal year in the war-and Monday will
open new annual records. Cabinet mem
bers and other heads of departments will
make reports to President Wilson, COW
ering their stewardships of funds and
responsibilities for the year closing to-
day, or technically tomorrow.

year will go down as a period of ex-

| Tense requirements, other government
activities, and the needs of the allies for
American loans to finance purchases of
war materials in this country. In peace
times the government Spent less than
81 900 0000,0 600 annually.
With the addition of the 81 100000, 900
which the government spent in the three
months of war preceding this fiscal year,
the wars cost in money to date has
been sl3,so0,0O0,0oQ.
War activities are now draining about
$50 100000 day from the nations pub
lie treasury, and in June the running ex-
penses were greater than ever before,
although loans to the allies dropped to
less than in any month since April, 1917,
when the United States became bellig
erent.
Including estimates for the last two
days of the month, not yet recorded, ex-
penditures for June were about 81 500,-
900 900, or approximately the same as
the record figure of May. Ordinary ex-
penses for the month amounted to about
81 ,25s, ,000, 900, a new high record, and
payments to allies were approximately
s236 900 900, less than half the $780,
900 900 which the treasury usually has
figured as necessary to finance the al
lied purchases in the United States ev-
cry month. Use of ships to transport
troops to France, instead of for war
materials, il considered responsible pri
marily for the reduction of allied loans.
Owing to the big inflow of income and
excess profits taxes, this month receipts
'or June have eclipsed all former rec

ources of revenue, receipts are expected
o amount to $2,250.000,0 900. Payments
