NEIION'S STATTS

Administration officials deny. pretty
convincingly, the charge made by Sen
at0r Watson of Georgia that Secretary
of the Treasury Mellon holds his Office
contrary to law. They explain that be-
fore Mr.. Mellon accepted the treasury
post he sought competent legal counsel
on the matter. and was assured that the
mere fact of holding stock in corpora
tons could not be construed as engaging
directly lin commerce or business"
At the time of his nomination Mr.
Melons only active participation in
business was as a director of certain
banks. and he resigned these positions
before entering the cabinet Since TAX
ing up the work as treasury secretary
he says he has not devoted one moment s
time to private business. Neither is his
case parallel to that of A. r. Stewart.
whose nomination to Grants cabinet was
withdrawn, for Mr.. Stewart was ac-
tually engaged in business as a mer-
chant, according to these same authori-
ties. There is no advantage to anybody
in repeating such charges. There is
harm in them, because they tend to dis
courage all able business men FROM en-
tering public life

TIE TOTAL WAR COST.

1t may Sc taken Tor granted that
there will be some sort of bonus legisla-
ton, sooner or later. which will cost the
country several billion dollars. y liberal
estimate puts the total cost at $1,000
100000 to $6,OOO,O0O0O0. which is
about as much as all the pensions paid
to Civil war veterans up to the present
time. a--t ..- Cd.
President Harding remarked in his re-
cent bonus letter that the government is
now spending $4OO.0OO,0O0 a year for
he relief of disabled veterans of the
World war The total amount already
,pent for such relief is more than bill
u. and Senator Borah declares that
disbursements for that purpose may
eventually reach the vast sum of $75,-
GO0O00.0G0
The government is automatically
"cnmpensating" the veterans and their
families for disability and death, and the
payments on that account up to Sept
80. last. amounted to 1858. 000, 900. They
are now piling up rapidly.
There can be little doubht that this
war. when the figures are all in. toward
the end of the present century. will have
cost the United States not less than
&1OO.O0O.O0OO
What of it? Well, nothing much, ex-
cept that the contemplation of such fig
ures certainly makes peace efforts seem
more than ever worth while.
