Your* very truly, J. H. Allen, Co. Supt Germany Counted on Food stuff* Prom U. S. A. London, July 28.—That high Ger man command had based its calcula tions on food supplies which America has been sending to neutrals became known, according to the Daily Mail through the famous speech of Herr Erzberger, head of the Catholic party in the reicbstag, made before a secret session of that body. The newspapers referred to this address as a "bomb shell." Herr Erzberger remarked that although America's entry into the war was of little military value it was im portant owing to the extent to which Germany was dependent on the neu trals for food and other supplies. He said that America had decreed that she would not permit exports to neutral' as long as the neutrals ex ported to Germany. Consequently, Herr Erzberger said, Germany would very shortly lose its source of supply. The terrible fact, he said, had to be fared thtt the military authoritiei had entirely figured on thoie supplies and that n»l»>dy in authority could (In.I an arwwer or give any idea from where the supplies were to come.

It moans that rovsa uaa will ba made larger; it Mini that •urn profit tax will bo takan; It also meana that IneoMe tax will ba par haps doubled, and than it leavae the country in mystery aa to whore the root will coma from. In other words, the people are con fronted with • condition that muet ba met. It takes all kinds of money to do what Uncle Bam la doing, and before wo have boon in the war a yaar, ac tually engaged in fighting, it will re quire another fourteen billion dollars to pay the Mile. Inasmuch as it appears to be the intention of the United States to pre pare on the giandeot scale poeaihle It is not a wild eetimata to say the war will cost a hundred billion dollars. Before we are through all kinds of bonds will ba issued, all kinds of tax will be levied, and the awn who ex pects to get through without giving up a large part of his accumulated wealth and his earnings might just as well figure on getting out of a pawr shop with the real value of the articlei carried there. Five million soldiers in Um Mid; al sorts of ships and air craft to build hundred* of thousand* of man am ployed aa civilian*—Um coat par da] will run far into the millions. But suppose it coats us all we havi accumulated; suppose it costs ui every cent that can be raised—it ii worth tha price. If we can raise foot and keep from starving; if wo can ge the money and concentrate oar soldier at the front—la a word, if we cai take Germany off the map and leav the world free of such a monster, it i worth all that it can cost. Those who have been enjoying bij incomes will perhaps enjoy them i» longer; those who have so far escape* without buying Liberty Bonds will pa; taxes on other kinds of bonds; thoe who have expressed themselves, a many have, that already the coat ha been too great will gat their's prett; | soon. With this additional Ave billioi gathered it cannot be long until an other ten billion will be called for, am every few months we will And that th< money is gone. Therefore we migh as well conclude right now that it wil take at least a third of what we hav< to put this war over—take billioni and -billions and then some more bil lions. And the only way to get thii money is for the citizens of the United States of America to shell out on< way or another. If we haven't that much just now, oar earning capacity is good, and each one of us must work for the common cause. The man who goes to war offers his life, if need be, and the man who stays at home will have to give up his purse. That seems to be about all there is to it. Let us hasten and raise this last call, this Ave billion that is needed right no^v.
