COST OF WAR
S2OO,OOO,OOO,OOO
Most of That Sum Spent
For Purposes of De-
struction
SAID LLOYD GEORGE
IN PARLIAMENT
Changing From War to
Peace Will Take AS Long
as From Peace to War

London, Aug. l0.-The war cost forty
billion pounds, Premier Lloyd George de-
clared in his speech in the House of Com
mons day on the financial and indus
trial situation. Most of the sum was
spent for purposes of destruction.
The premier asserted that the chang
ing from war to peace conditions would
take just as long as the change from
peace to war. The first outstanding fact
of the present situation was the alarm
ing adverse trade balance.
The import restrictions which will ter
inmate Sept. |, the premier continued,
had given British manufacturers an OPP
portlmity of making and dealing in
goods which, otherwise would have been
hurried here from foreign countries.
The premier said that before the war
imports had exceeded exports from the
United Kingdom by l50,000,000 pounds,
while Great Britain has to pay back an
adverse trade balance of s00,000,000
pounds.
The national debt, the premier de-
clared, has grown from 64l 100000
pounds to 100000 pounds.
Labor conditions in the United King
dom, Mr.. Lloyd George added had inn
proved OF the 100000 men demobil-
lied, only $4,000 have not been absorbed
in industries.

"0nce Again Yet"

Millions of Germans, perhaps as many
as 20000000 of them, are expected to
emigrate. This is taken for granted,
both within and without the fatherland
Outsiders are wondering where the Ger
man exiles are going to find new abid-
ing places The Germans themselves are
framing definite plans for the exodus.
Big German business, which has al
ways taken a great interest in the map
of the world, has marked Russia South
America, Africa and Mexico as the spots
where it would like to see more Ger
mans. Apparently the German mind has
walked up to the grim fact that Germans
will not receive a hearty welcome in
countries which sent soldiers against
Hindenburg. That is why the new plans
leave out France, England, Italy and the
United States
The assembly at Weimar is now being
urged to create new German colonies
composed of picked men who will work
for the fatherland first and afterward
for themselves These colonies would be
bound only by sentiment to the old
country. The idea will not be particu-
Ilarly favored by the nations which have
fought against Germany.
We have had our experience with Ger
man propaganda in most of the coun-
tries of the world, neutral as well as
Ibelligerent. 1t has not been pleasant. If
Germany really wants to live down her
past she will drop this scheme of dot
ting undeveloped portions of the world
with fiaxenh haired groups which win
meet at the close of the day to Join in
singing Deutschland Uber Allies. -Bos-
ton Globe.

familiar with the Arrange
Yxaau
ment.

Sale Of U. s. government army food
began at the Barre postoffice this morn
ing with the sale throughout the United

of the unfamiliarity Of the public with
the details of the sale. The'priee list for
the various articles are printed in an
other column so that any people desir
ing to make purchases can see at a
glance what they have to pay.
Orders have to be made in duplicate,

must be paid at the time of ordering.
