Cost to America Now Running About
SO Per Cent Higher Than Great Bril-
tain's Expenscs-War Debt One
Third That Of Great Britain.

Washingt on, July 31.-America's wal
expenses now are running about SO
per cent higher than those Of Grea
Britain, it Was showed today by com.
par.son of financial statements.
Owing to the shorter time the
United States has been in the war
however the national war debt is but
one-third that Of Great rBttain and
the individual tax one-tMrd that OF
Great Britain.
Attic the United States has assumed
the position OF finanoier for the al.
lied nations. the total drain on this
country is about one-fourth that OF
Great Britain.
The monuhly cost Of the war to the
United States now is about 81 $780,
100000, including loans to allies, while
Great Britains expenses are running
in the eighhorhood of $1,000, 100000
month.
The United States is>spending about
S50,UsJp"n a day or 100000 an
hour. The nations war debt now is
little less than s12,500, 100000, as COM
pared with Great Britain's $s36,675,-
10000
Before the war both nations col
lected about the same amount Of taxes
every year, approximately $780,
100000. Now Great Britain collects

newly added production requires cast
of 1880 people, hundreds, of dancing
girls and tons of special scenery cos

makes necessary the carrying of a
stage of tremendous proportions.

several circus departments is that in
charge of the commissary This Off

Another force of possibly thirty, men
drove out to nearby oats and wheat
fields Monday evening and assisted in
shocking small grain for farmers who
were in needy circumstances and for
those who had been unable to secure

care of. The small grain harvesting
is almost completed, but it is easy to
discern that many farmers this fall

per OF men from town if the magnif-
icent crop of corn shall be properly
taken care of. Many of the general
business men, lawyers, doctors, county
officers and others have signified a
Willingness to assist in the harvesting
of this crop also.
