ENCLANDs HUGE EXPENSE ACCOUNT.

4 YAST totals, impressive though they may be. do not make vivid
" the amazing costs resulting from the war, but a study of g" Eng
fish Public Finance" just published by a New York bank, strik-
ingly vis1alizes the tremendous amount of money spent by Great
Britain during the past six years. This was more than the total
costs Of running her government, fighting eight great wars and a
multitude of expensive "lttle' wars, Of building aud rebuilding
navles, maintaining peace time armies, eolonizng, and meeting the
cumulative expenses of improving the social condition Of her pOpu-
laion over a period of 22 centuries preceding the world war.
The sum Of j. 26S million pounds (roughly 56 billion dollars
represents the British governments expense from March 81, 1914 10
March 81, 1920 In the previous 22 centuries the total outlay by the
government was 1924 million pounds.
The British people have already paid in various forms Of tax
alton aud war contributions 36 per cent-about 20 billion dollars
of Their tremendous war period expense In other words, they have
paid ia six years time ON behalf of their government more than
onethird as much as they had been previously required to pay in 22l
years. The Bankers Trust cOmpanys study also shows that last
year. burdened with interest charge for national debt - times greater
than the national debt charge before the war aud, also with a very
heavy peace time budget for running the government, Britain paid
outright about so per cent of her years expenses.
These are some Of the more striking facts Of recent English
public finance.
With reference TO the past the study dscloses that England
has been good pay in the matter Of her debts. Since the Rcvolu.
ton OF 1888 she has serupulously kept her engagements with her
creditors. The records show that she has done 80 in times of greatest
stress.
Her burdens today. while heavy, are. according to the study,
not much greater IN proportion 10 national wealth and income than
those winch she hss borne AZ times in the past. To Illustrate with
estimated wealth OF ZOO million pounds at the end of he NapoleoniC
wars Britain had a debt Of $50 million pounds To-day with estimated
wealth OF 24OOO million pounds the debt is 5000 million pounds
approximately the same ratio as in the Napoeonic period.

Mo MATTER what your business or occupation, take a vacation
IN There is a well established theory that rest is best obtained
through change OF occupation and we frequently hear people
say that the best kind Of vacation is 10 stay at home. Il may be true
but We doubt Il. The lives Of most Of us consist very largely Of
routine. We do the Sume things, see the same people, think the same
thoughts from day 20 day as we go about our regular occupations
This repetition, day after day. is necessary 10 normal living But in thu
course Of the routine little rrtanons creep in little trials aud an.
noyances that at first amount to little, but when repeated over aud
over again begin 10 wear on the bearings Of thencrvOas system.
We do not believe in she six-hour day. We do not believe in the
fyeday working week. We believe that men, and women are. hap
pier and We know they are more efficient when they work six days
IN every week aud eight hours in every day. unless the employment
be of a nature that is extraordinarily trying or exhaustng But we
do believe that every man and wonan, whether the employment he
beating a typewriter. driving a truck, running a store or running a
home is entitled to an annual vacation and by vacation we mean a
complete change ~ scene gnd enyirpunent. 50 that there may be com
plete freedom from the little. trials and irritaios that creep in to
the daily routine. Returning from such a vacation we ar likely
10 find tina. the little irritations are Invitations no longer.
Take a vacation aud so somewhere such a vacation AS we have in
mind is possible for every man and woman in Albuquerque. We
have the ideal vacation land around us. within easy driving dis
tance, or by mean of a very short railroad trip. Change of scene
does not necessarily mean going TO California or Atlantic City or.
Lake Superior or Alaska. We who live in Albuquerque can have
complete change of scene By merely going to Santa Fe, or to the
Pecos or the Jemez, or even into our own Sandia mountains These
are the finest Fairgrounds in the world, and the least expensive.
According to the Bureau of the Census. 1920 advance bulletin
10000 acres OF swamp land have been successfully drained ia De
Soto county, Florida, for a total cost Of 1851 $50; and 10000 acres
in Palm Beach county, Florida, for $4.077O00 The drainage problem
in these Florida everglades counties was infinitely more serious than
our own. A cost Of $40 an acre for drained land need not scare
anyone.

COTTON PROFITS.

The Vicksburg Evening Post says the Senate
committee Investigating the high cost of living
has been entertainment coupled with some very
surprising figures.
For example, one E. A. Calvin, who represents
in Washington the common, garden variety of
cotton growers, walked in on the committee the
other day Juggling a pair of scales and a neatly
packed store bundle. Said Calvin:
Con my way down | dropped into a store and
bought six yards of gingham. Paid IS cents a
yard, or $3.50. Let's weigh this gingham."
The scales were set up on the committee table
and the six yards of bingham were found to
weigh precisely Is ounces
"The average price of cotton last year." re-
marked Calvin, was 81 cents a pound, therefore,
the southern farmer who grew this bingham in
my hand received rs IL cents for the Is ounces
in it; somebody else got the remaining $4.24 1-2
Who? Why?"
The committee VOTED not.
Il will now remove from this bundle,' %continu.
ed Calvin, "two pairs of mems cotton stockings
and place them on the scales. Thus, Ha! Two and
one-half ounces. At 81 cents a pound the farmer
received 4 12 cents for the cotton in these two
pairs of socks. Sirs, l paid 80 cents for them.
Here's a cotton handkerchief | bought up town
for 5 cents and our scales show that it weighs q
little less than an ounce. At 27 cents a pound the
farmer got less than 1 12 cents for the cotton in
this handkerchief"
The committee dug up lead pencils and began
to do a little arithmetic. The figures showed that
the price of Calvin's bingham was multiplied by
IL between the farmer who grew it and the con.
sumner. The handkerchief was multiplied about Is
times and the socks by IL.
