! Waste Held Unavoidable.
1t is likely that billions of Ameri-
can money were paid out to no seem
ingly good purpose. That was true
in England, France and Italy. and
also in the former Central Empires
and Russia. There would have been
the same waste if the people who are
inclined to make this point had them
selves been in charge OF operations.
posing as great experts.
A government at the head of ma
ton at war can afford to take no
of possible or probable attack and
take advantage of every opportunity
for offense. This means money.
Preparations are made for offense or
defense at score of points, and the
struggle comes at only two or three
of them. The money spent in getting
ready at all the other points is
wasted. in the opinion of those who.
after peace has come. endeavor to
pass judgment on expenditures made
while the fighting was at it's height.
Then. too there is the inevitable
waste growing out of unpreparedness
and lack of expert management.
Amerca had regrettable experience
with airplanes, big guns. ammuni-
ton; 1t was unable during the first
year of its participation in the war to
take proper care of its soldiers, even
in the home training camps.
This experience proves just one
thing, namely. the difficulty that must
always attend the changing of a great
peace loving nation. almost over
night, from a peace to war footing.
| Yes; there has been gross waste.
but how, in the very nature Of the
case. could there have been anything
else? 1t is we'll to keep in mind. how
ever. that much of this waste, in an
important sense. was more apparent
than real.
! It is the unanimous opinion of all
the great authorities, including those
Of Germany. that the immensely of
/ American preparation in the six
months preceding the armistice after
we had struck our gait. had more
than any other one thing to do with
compelling Germany to surrender.

numbers, all about our airplane con-
struction, our reserves of men and
money, and her military leaders saw

produce east of the Rhine the same
devastation that had been wrought In
Belgium and Flanders.
American waste shortened the
war by at least q year, and kept the
number OF American dead at 10000

BY W. w. JERMANE. in the Seattle
Times.
On Monday there began test to
determine whether American patriot
ism is made of the same dependable
stuff. now that the fighting is over.
That was it's distinguishing feature
when the Huns were pressing against
the battlefronts in France and Bel
GUM.
America has raised four large war
loans by popular subscription. The
one now at hand will be the fifth, and
last. If it goes over the top, like the
it's predecessors, the American war
record will be without a flaw; If it
doesn't there will be a defect of con-
tinuity and cohesion that will cause
deep regret and that the passing of
the years will not obliterate.
The end of hostilities has undoubt-
eddy had a profound effect upon the
/. public mind. Stress and strain are
gone. The people are now thinking
about the important establishments
that will permit the country to enter
upon an era of unexampled prosper
ity. But that in all the change any
thing has happened that will en-
danger the loan is not believed BY Off
cials Of the treasury.
Glass Is Confident.
Secretary Glass is even more con-
fldent regarding the outcome than
was his predecessor when loans were
being made at the height of military
activities. He was quick to see that
the fifth loan would come under con-
dtions Importantly different from any
hitherto existing; and, by increasing
the interest rate, making the exemp-
ton privilege more attractive. maxi
ing the loan a short one. and In va
rious other ways having the govern
ment meet the public half way. and
more than half way, he believes he
had overcome all difficulties and In
sured the subscription Ii record time.
One point that must be met is that
there has been extravagance, even
waste, in war expenditures; that
proper management might have rem
dered the nth loan unnecessary. Let
It be frankly admitted that this
charge is true It has been true oi
I. every war that ever. was fought, and
1t will be true Of all wars Of the fu-
ture. whatever the belligerent coun-
tries.
War Is the greatest prodigal. the
greatest spendthrift. mankind has
ever known, and II never can be any
thing else.
That il one Of the strong arguments
against It. II spends money just al
freely as It sheds blood and destroys
property, and all the humanizing In
