WHERE AMERICA FOUND
~. HERSELF


HERSELF
So, with the fighting stopped, we
of America took an inventory. We
found:
!. The war had cost US $21, ,OOO,-
100000, of which $1,000, 100000 is
owing to US and is drawing interest
from our Allies. This is compared
to war costs for Great Britain of
$37, ,100,000,O0O, and for France of
$4,000, 100000.
2. Our battle deaths were only
$4,000 as compared to 1,385,000 for
France, 100000 for England, 460,-
900 for Italy, 100000 for Belgium,
and 100000 for Russia.
8. With all our ready money spent,
our expenses were running $2,OOO,-
100000 a month. We had an army
of 2,000,000 soldiers in Europe and
millions more at home that had to
be paid, fed, clothed, and transport
ed; we had great and victorious
navy to support; we had ships to
build; we had immense contracts to
adjust, and we had a moral obliga-
VAVA w CVutAuOC W o1u OuI <1&tlOS uI~
til their homeless, starving people
could again become self.supporting.
In short, we had to keep our prom
ises, do our share in the re-construc-
tion or re-adjustment of our own and
the worlds affairs. The best of fg-
uring by the Treasury Department
indicated that for the first half of
1919 the necessary Government ex-
penditures would amount to practical
ly $10,500, ,00O, 900, only a portion of
which could be realized from taxa
tion.
4. We found that the United Stat
es had been changed over night, as it
were from a "debtor" to creditor"
nation. Before the war we went to
Europe for money to finance our great
projects. In 1914, Europeans owne5
about $4,000, 100000 worth of Amer
lean securities. These were bought
back and in 1919 America holds about
,O0O,OO0,O0O Of European paper. We
are truly out in the world to stay
because we cannot get our possess
sions home. Our position in the f.

not borrow money from Europe. There
isn't any to borrow. We cannot even
collect the money Europe owes US,
and we do not want to, because the
immediate payment of this money
would so unbalance trade and so
raise the exchange rates that we
would be forced out of the competi-
tive markets of the world.
What, then, must we do? We must |
accumulate enough money in Amer
lea to finance, America and take over
the other duties of a "creditor ma
tion," one of which is to re-invest in
foreign securities.
Because we have products of the soil
and Of our factories to sell, and be-
cause the rest Of the world wants
these products, if they can get them
at right prices, we must, as a ma
tiun, conduct our business and pre-
pare ourselves to furnish, transport,
and sell these products at right prices
to the peoples who want and need
them.

the present weather with nightly

later and il is thought it will he. The

would take Johnny along with him
into Idaho.
When the Potatoes Bloomed
The year came and went and
there were many days when he wept
in his loneliness, and many times
he played Rookie. He became a
leader of the bunch sometimes
spoken of those little d." But
he didn't like being anything else
quite so well, and one day when his
feet were sore and black and badly
cracked, and he was hoeing the po-
tatoes, his foster father came out
and told him to let the rest of the
hoeing 60 and he would do it him
self. That was the first time in
Johnny's life that he was given per-
mission to let any work go. 1t was
the first time anyone had ever Of
fered to finish task for him, and
he replied that he was nearly done
and was willing to finish. Then the
man told him to 60 to the house and
enter by the back door, and to take
off all his clothes and wash his body
clean and put on his Sunday clothes.
Johnny trembled as he did so, for
he did not know what was going to
happen to him. The potatoes were
blooming, and he wished that the
man would come again like he did
the summer before.
When he was washed and dressed
he went into the front room of the
house, and there were several people
there, one of them being this dark
man with much Of love in his eye.
They told him he was to 60 to Idaho
to live with his own father, and he
rode away on the horse behind his
father, and held on to him.
In the winter Of 1855 they lived
in Deer Lodge, Mont, and there was
a white man named Newcomb teach
ing school there. Johnny went to
that school four months, and lived
in the house where Mr.. Newcomb
boarded. He studied his book in the
evening and Mr.. Newcomb was so
kind to him that he learned more
each night than he did in the day
time.

a mothers love and comradeship.
He set out at once on his return to
North Idaho to find the Nez Perez
camp where he had seen the two
women, but when he got there they
had gone, and nobody could tell him
anything about them.
Still Watching for Mother
Father Pambrun died some years
later, and Johnny has always been
entertaining some hope that he
might yet meet his mother, but as
the years lengthen, he considers the
chances are less. He lives couple

Gated his willingness for the writer
to publish any of the experiences he
