lIE cost of a single war is
only equaled by the
price' the world pays for
lpeace. While the world
is staggered by the tmil
lions poured into such a
struggle as the present
conflict in the Italkans,
the cost of the armed
peace maintained by the
nations not now engaged in war is not
less stupendous.
Never before did the leaders of
peace societies In all countries have
such financial arguments to direct
against the governments responsible
for the armed camps of the world.
The nations foremost in their prepara
M4ons for war have received new im
petus from the Balkan conflict, and
are increasing the already huge ex
penditures for battleships, armies and
munitions of war.
Never before has the world seen
anything like the present situation.
Extra taxation in Germany, increase
of the reserves and length of military
service in France, more than a quar
ter of a bUllon dollars for battleships
In England, together with q big out
lay for airships--these are the symp
toms of the war fever that holds Eu
rope In tts grip.
Even the most enthusiastic believer
In Insurance begrudges the money
paid out as premiums, for which he
.gets practically no return so long as
all goes well. Is it any wonder then
that millions of the governed all over
.the world are protesting against the
tremendous assessments made upon
them by their governments to pay the
cost of Insurance against war?
Those who advocate the present
enormous and annually Increasing ex
penditures for armament answer that
they are fully justified it they serve
to keep the peace. Which is better,
they ask of the disarmament advo
cates, taxes for armament or the
:ilsk of the nation's prosperity and
even its existence, by exposure to at
tack through unpreparedness for war?
Which is preferable, a diversion of
part of the national revenues to pay
bor armies and warships, or the doe
struction of property and the loss of
Wte Inevitable It war should come
upon the unprepared? Certainly, the
fact that within little more than a
year the world has seen two wars In
the Mediterranean goes far to refute
the assertion of the peace advocates
that war is at an end and armament t
therefore unnecessary. r
Considering the tact that they hold C
a brlet for those in favor of the aboll
the of war preparations, it is not,
after all, so strange that figures of
the east of armed peace are most
available at the headquarters of the
piace soieties. Not that the war and
navy departments at Washington do
sot keep a arefual record of their own S
espeaditures, and also keep in touch
h what other natless are doing;
but the men intrusted with the re
sposulbility of preparing the United
States against war are more con- a
corned with what other armed as- ti
tions have than with what it costs te
them. Therefore, it has remained w
hrgely for the peace advocates to O
collate the figures and dress them up di
as impressively as possible.
Their figures are mlapressive enough w
without any innocently intended pad- L
ding. To begin with they present the di
stupendous, Incomprehensible sum of d
$3,50,000,000 as the combined annual th
espenditure of all the civillsed nations m
for armaments in time of p . This as
vast sum takes no account e cost N
of putting Europe on its prAnt war Is
gooting or of the cost of the recent di

Non-military appropriations and pen
sion appropriations have increased
more rapidly than the military bills.
Consequently in the table above the
percentage accredited to the Inited
States is much too high, as the figures
will show.
How these war expenditures, or
rather expenditures to prevent war. as
they are termed by those responsible
for them, have mounted to such tre
mendous figures, is shown by the
table, giving the cost of the world's
armies and navies for every ten years
In the last generation. The totals for
each nation mount into the billions
since 1881.
Though the United States holds
fourth place, according to these fig
ures, in amount of expenditures for
war preparations, it is really far be
hind if judged by results. The United
States government pays higher for
preparation for war than any other
nation in the world. It pays its sol
diers and sailors higher wages; their
food is better, and costs much more
than that of foreign soldiers and blue
Jackets; their clothing is more ex
pensive; the American government
must pay much higher prices for bat
tleships, guns and all munitions and
materials of war. Consequently, with
one of the biggest military bills tc
foot, the United States really has less
to show than that of any country per
dollar expended.
The graphic charts above show the
military preparedness of nine coun
tries: Mexico, United States, Great
Britain, Japan, Italy, Austria, France
Germany and Russia. As is readily
seen, despite the millions it spends on
the army, the United States Is a dwari

This gives the Island the appearance
of an elongated doughnut. At no
place does the island rise more than
twenty-five feet above ocean level.
The place swarms with birds. "I
learned more about birds on this trip
than I had ever dreamed of before,"
Commodore Salisbury said yesterday
afternoon. "We brought home with us
175 rare specimens. These will be
mounted and placed in the govern
ment museums.
"We found two variettes that are
found nowhere else. One is the Lay
san rall. It is about the size of a
quall and has small wings, but they do
it little good, for It cannot fly. We
started home with eighty living speci
mens of the rall, but the return trip
was so cold that all except five died.
The survivors were left at the Golden

other bird peculiar to the island is
the Laysan teal, a fowl smaller than
the mallard duck, but ruesemblng it in
general appearance. Incidentally, we
found a pair of mallard ducks that had
come over from the mainland of Call

LAST RELICS OF THE MAINE

she was towed out to sea from Ha- a

This disposltkn of the brass and :

The parts of the wreck that were

were fLirst sent to Washinglton, where K
they were melted together, purified it
and cast into thirty-pound ingots. It is yc
in this form that all that is left of F

One thousand tablets, designed by tI

and twenty sovereigns have had to
follow him. All that is known now is
that there will be a "non-recurring

The sovereigns feel all the more

the fifth richest person in Prossla.
Richer than him are Frau IBtrtha

Prince Ilenvkel von D)onnersmarck.,
º who has $6.1.000.000: laron von Gold
schmidt-ltothschild of Frankfurt with
$40.000.000, and the Duke of Ujest
with $.17.000.000. After these comes
Kaiser Wilhelm with a miserable $3:.,
000.000. Kaiser Wilhelm's forests and
Sfields are valued at $17.500.000: his
forty palaces, country houses, castles
and shooting boxes at $10 000.000, and
his land sites in Berlin at $1.500,000.
That accounts for $32,000.000 out of
the $35.00000.000 Wilhelm II. also has
land in Westphalia and the Rhine
province of unknown value.
No other sovereign or prince will
pay anything like Kaiser Wilhelm.
The crown prince is worth $3.700.00.
Kaiser Wilhelm's brother. Henry. has
estates which are worth $2.000,000.
Altogether, the kaiser and these rela.
tives are worth $51.500,000. The ut
most they will pay in tax is ,$530,000.
"Is it worth while." ask the hard-up
sovereigns, "for the sake of these
beggarly sums, to rob us of our privi
leges and treat us as if we were ordi
nary men!" They ask themselves
that in decent secrecy.
