We were in the war about nineteen
months. The country paid for our ut
ter unpreparedness at the approximate
rate of $l,700. 900, 900 a month during
the continuation OF the war. Every
body knows that II had been ade-

and other items of expenditure are

that in a measure still prevail.
$50 Million Versus 33 Billion.
AT the cost of s130,00O, 900 per
annum for Nsuch insurance, and re-
membering that the world war cost
us in nineteen months $4,000, ,000,-
900, it would take about 200 years
to expend the amount required for
the universal training of our youths
to total the amount that this nine
teen months of war cost us.
IF we were to get into another
war as totally unprepartd as we
were in this war, believe that the
cost would be infinitely greater.
The history of the world discloses
the fact that the cost of war con-
stantly increases. Surely it would
be criminal folly to neglect the les
sons taught us by this war.
