a future deficit. Such a situation

tied V. J. Hudson, administrator ot
iiuo i,,n. I-ml thp international money
transactions of the last four years.'
u-imii the vir ondril last November
the British government had lent $7,-
500,000.000 to Its allies, or wnicn
$2. 840, 000,000 had gone to Russia
and $3,350,000,000 to France. Be
tween April. 1917. and last Novem
ber our own government bad lent
$7,900,000,000, of which $3,700,
000,000 had gone to England, the
rest to nine other allies. Even France,
with all its own burdens, had ad
vanced $690,000,000 to weaker allies
like Belgium. The Uernian govern
ment Itf npl ievpd to have lent about
$2,250,000,000 to Austria, Bulgaria
and Turkey.
I None of those loans represented
real money paid by a government to
its allies. Usually, the transaction
consisted of an allied f overnnient's
buying food or war material, say from
American producers, and those pro
ducers received their pay, not from
the allied government, but from their
