THE COST OF THE WAR.

THE ext of that portion of its
publication French Public
Finance" which Premier Lloyd
George quoted Tuesday in his ad-
dress before the allied conference
as an impartial authority on the war
expenditures of the various allies,
is given out by the Bankers Trust
company of New York as follows:
1T is doubtful whether the true
cost of the war to all of the belliger-
ents will ever be definitely known.
Statistics such as would be required
by a public accountant in order to
certify to the correctness of a
statement are not now available.
Probably they never will be OBJ
tainable.
Some of the nations which en-
tered the war no longer exist. The
status of others has been greatly
changed. Russia is in the hands
of the bolshevists, and very likely
they have destroyed her books OF
account. In any event, her account
ing system is thoroughly dislocated.
The former central powers. Ger
many excepted, have not published
statements for the war period.
I'm the case of France we have
only the budget appropriations as a
guide, as the actual expenditures for
the war years have not yet been
published.
I'VE have made a careful study
of all available data, actual figures
where published, appropriations, in
crease in public debts, and official
and semi-official statements made
from time to time in the parlia-
ments, in the public press and 9th
erwise.

Harlem. Aug. 16.-A terrific cleo
trical storm. accompanied by wind,
rain and hail. with sufficient force to
move cars. swept through the country
north of Turner. next to the Canadian
line. Tuesday morning, destroying
standing crops and leveling grain. hay
stacks and small buildings. Otto Lands
verk reports 5000 bushels of wheat
totally destroyed and all of his farm
buildings with the exception OF the
house. Oliver Olson had a bumper
crop wiped out and many others in the
same community sustained similar
losses.
The Milk River valley was struck
by another storm at 4 o'clock Tuesday
afternoon that almost equaled in in
tensity the storm of July 4. except
that there was practically no hail. The
of rain borne on a 6O-mile
gale was so heavy that at times it a
impossible to see across the street
here.
Unroofs High School
Five ears were unroofed here when
a local freight train came IN n a
string of box cars, standing on a side
track at the stockyards, started rolling
and drifted out on the main line. where
were hit by a local passenger tram
with little damage resulting. A half
mile of Western Union telegraph poles
were blown down.
The gale was equally destructive at
Chinook. The roof of the high school
was blown off, large windows in the
courthouse were shattered, the rain
into the building in such a tor
rent that all of the front offices were
flooded. One of the large windows
that was forced in caused considerable
to furnishings. There was
hail but not enough TO damage
However, the wind flattened
and grain fields and blew the
tops off of hundreds of hay stacks.
