THE PEACETIME COST -OF WAR The whole subject of war and its cost has been brought tnto the arena of public discussion in the United States as a result of the recent meeting of the International Chamber of Commerce in Washing ton. As' is always the case when the subject Is discussed, everybody agreed that all nations are spending too much money on their military and naval establishments, but_ no body was willing to commit' his own country to a reduction in this terrific charge upon the taxpayers.
