10000 more than the United States
lent in the year and four months
to the allies.
Part Of the money which England
loaned TO her allies undoubtedly was
I taken from loans made by the United
states to Great Britain. In round
numbers. the money cost of the war
in four years is almost exactly $780,
OcoUOOOo And the United States is
to be called upon while the war lasts
and after the war to aid in making
good in the course of years perhaps
extending over two or three genera
tions this enormous loss.
On the other hand, Mr.. Prosser
points out that $50 German subma-
rines have been sunk since the war
began and the destruction of subma-
rines now is greater than the num-
Der of new submarines built and sent
to sea by Germany. All of the Ship
ping of Germany has been placed
in embargo. She has lost her won
derful international trade and it may
be many years before she can re-
T, cover even a small part of it, Ger

In the United States not far from
sixteen million men and women are

either in actual military service or

forces. There remain, however, more
than twenty million men and women
who are capable of carrying on work
that is necessary for the maintenance
Of our domestic industries and for the
ordinary and essential business life OF
the nation. We have, therefore, not

transferred to Camp Lee. at Peters

1t is said that Leonard's transter
foreshadows a general shakeup amon@
the boxing instructors in the camps
Many new men have been appointed
and divers old ones are likely to be
dropped.
No doubt there viii ne considerable
conjecture as to the reason for the
transfer of Leonard from Upton
where he IVES reported TO be doing
fine work. 1t may be possible that his
bout with ed Lewis, which drew so
much adverse criticism, had some
thing to do with it.

round numbers.
But there was an exigency created
by the war which the United States
was compelled to eliminate. That was
the need OF our allies Of credits or
funds. for they were not able them
selves to meet all the demands which
were made upon them. Therefore the
Unit. l States lent to the allies IN a
year and four months almost exactly
six billion dollars. That is a stu
pendous item to which due consId-ra-
ton will be paid, the men OF finance
say. after the war is ended. The
amount will be increased and 1t Is
not unlikely that our allies will owe
the United States, should the war last
another year. from ten billion 10
twelve billion dollars.
