GAVE MORE THAN
CIVIL WAR COST
States War Loans and War
Taxes Exceed Figures
of 1861 to 1865

Philadelphia, Oct 30.-Pennsyl-
vania's war loans and war taxes in
the two years of Americas partici-
patton in the World War were
greater by about $600,000,0 900 than
the total cost to the North of financ-
ing the entire four years of the
Civil War.
The Pennsylvania War History
Commission made this announce
ment to-day. The comparison be-
tween the gigantic financial contri-
buttons of this Commonwealth to
the Nation at war and the cost in
dollars and cents of the American
Civil War is made as a stimulant to
the interest of Pennsylvanians in
State History Week, November 8 to
Is, when the people of Pennsylvania
are asked to fortify the State rec
ords of the future by contributing
the civilian and service achieve
ments of 1917 and 1918 to the Com
missions files.
The Keystone Commonwealth, the
figures on hand at present show, sub
scribed to S2,709, ,947,S00 worth of
Liberty and Victory bonds. The
North, from 1861 to 1855, fioated
loans totaling $2,621, ,916,7S6. In
other words. Pennsylvania in two
years raised $SS,031,014 more in
bonds than the entire North did in
four years.
The Union, between 1861 and 1865,
paid into the United States Treas
ury taxes totaling $667,163,247.
Pennsylvania, for 1917 alone. paid
S5S9,05614320. The 1918 taxes
which are being paid in four in
stallments, the last one this Decem-
ber, will reach the $500, 900, 900
mark. The combined Pennsylvania
taxes for 1917 and 1918 will exceed
the Civil War taxes of the Union
by approximately $512,000,000, which
added to the SSS,0OO,000 increase in
war loans, makes a $600,000,000
total.
