porter of oysters to Europe, and his

which the blue point oysters found la

Methuselah, who lived to be IHV.) onrs old,
might have done It by walking 'nights. No other
mortal could.
It must not be ovoilookul that Methuselah,
either In his own time or ours, would soon have
run out of currency. The wm Id does not have,
and never will havo.Jn nioito.v of any denomina
tion, the appalling sum of $221,1)00.000.000. Soiin
thing like that h what the world has spent on
the war that Is paving Into history, writes Clen
don Allvlne lu the New York Tribune.
Those are llgures that outdistance the compre
hension of the wisest man that ever lived. The
cost of the ) transcends nil the monetary con
ceptions which even a llnaiicier can ton.i'ire up.
Nor Is It much easier to conceive the loll of life
that the war has taken.
Great Killnln alone has lost lu the war about
1,000,000 men. Franc; has lost perhaps 10,0,000
more. In u general way these llgures uieaii
something to us, but nu lllustiatlou may help
visualize these allied dead.
Not more than 100,000 poisons have marched
In the greatest parade that Fifth avenue has
ever known. Our propuivdne-s parade, and pos
sibly tho Third Llbeity loan parade, totaled that
number of marchers. All day long they marched,
uud until after sundown. We thrilled at the sight
of these living Amei leans.
Let us visualize the ninnh of the l'.iiti-h dead.
At daybieak they stall down Filth avenue, 20
abreast. Their fallen comrades follow a few paces
behind, in close matching order. Until sundown
these men who have "gone west" inarch down the
avenue. The next da.v there Is a similar parade,
nnd the net, and the next. For ten tla.vs the
l'.iillsh dead pass in levlew.
For II days more the French dead Hie down
the Avenue ol the Allies. Three weeks of mulch
ing dead men.
The Russians who died fighting for their empire
that was would require the daylight hours of live
weeks more. And for the other brave allied light
ing men we must reserve a fortnight. Two months
nnd a half for tho allied dead to march past a
given point.
The enemy dend, although definite figures nro
not available, number about -1.S00.000. For them
to pass In review would require more than six
weeks.
Throughout all the daylight hours of .Tune, July,
August and September, then, the ghastly proces
sion would continue. It Is an appalling picture to
contemplate.
As preliminary punishment for the fugitive
kaiser, for whom so many horrible fates lu-ve
been suggested, there may be torture available
here. For him to stand nt attention throughout
four hot summer months, while the ghosts of
those he sent to death pass in constant review
surely, that might Inflict mental agony enough to
appease the most vindictive.
Historians will finally agree that $221,000,000,
000 or some such figure was spent by the na
tions Involved. They will eventually place tho
toll of dean at 11000.000 or thereabout. They
may decide that shipping was lestroyed to the
value of $2,000,000,000. I'.ut never, In computing
he cost of the war, will they bo able to estimate
accurately thsy Indiiect losses:
I'h.vslcal sniveling.
Increased Illness.
Increased death into.
Lowered race vitality.
Decreased birth rate.
Curtailed education.
Moral degradation. .
Propel ty destroyed.
Crops and trees devastated.
Cargoes sunk.
Property damaged by Idleness.
Industry crippled by diversion of men.
Production diverted from creative to destructive

It would take more than 1,000 years to '
count in $10 bills the money spent in
the war.
Ing proper, without furnishings 000,000,000 days
of work will bo necessary, involving, together with
building material, an outlay of 10,000.000,000
francs.
"As regards personal property of every descrip
tion, either destroyed by battle or stolen by the
Geimans, there stands an additional loss of nt
least -1,000,000,000 francs. This valuation of lost
personal property does not Include, as definite
figures are lacking ns yet tho countless war con
tributions nnd flues by the enemy, amounting also
to billions.
"I need hardly say that, In thosu wealthy lands,
no agricultural resources are left. Tho losses in
horses nnd In cattle, bovine and bovine species,
hogs, goats ntuoitut to 1,510,000 head In agricul
tural equipment to -1.11,000 machines or carts tlto
two Items worth together 0,000,000,000 francs.
"Now ns regards Industries, the disaster Is even
more complete. These districts occupied by the
Germuns and whoso mnchlnory lias been method
ically destroyed or taken away by tho enemy,
were, Industrially speaking, tho very heart of
France. They were the very backbone of our
production, as shown In the following startling
llgures:
"In 1013 the wool output of our Invaded regions
amounted to 01 per cent of the total French pro
duction. And corresponding figures were: For
flax from the spinning mills, 1)0 per cent ; iron ore,
00 per cent; pig Iron. 815 per cent; steel, 70 per
cent ; sugar, 70 per cent ; cotton, 00 per cent ; coal,
fi5 per cent; electric power, -1.1 per cent. Of all
that, plants, machinery, mines, nothing Is left.
Everything has been canleil away or destroyed
by the enemy. So complete Is lhe destnfttlon
that. In tho case of our great coal mines In tho
north, two yours of work will be needed before :i
single ton of coal can bo extracted, and ten years
before theoutput Is back to the llgures of l!)i:i.
"All that must be rebuilt, and to carry out that
kind of reconstruction only there will bo a need
of over 2,000,000 tons of pig Iron, nearly -1.000.000
tons of steel not to mention tho replenishing of
stocks and of raw inateilals which must of neces
sity bo supplied to the plants during tho first year
of resumell activity. If wo take 'into account
band, has lost
submarine
lust four
vours have not built any ships. For they have
produced for us and for our allies cannon, ammu
nition and tanks. Here, nguln, for this Item
ulono of means of transportation wo must figure
on an expense of 2,000,000,000 francs. This mnkos,
If I sum up these different Items, n need of raw
material which represents In cost, nt tho present
rate or prices In France, not less than 00,000,000,-
000 francs.
"And this formidable llgure does not cover
everything. I hnve not taken into account the
loss represented for the future production of
Franco by tho transformation of so many fac
tories which for four years were exclusively do
voted to war munitions. I have not taken Into
account foreign markets lost to us as a result
of the destruction of on-quartor of our productive
capital and tho nlniost total collapse of our trade.
1 have not taken Into nccount the economic weak
ening that we shall suffer tomorrow owing to the
loss of il.000,000 young and vlgoromi men."
Compared to these, tho losses accruing to tho
United Stntcs as n result of the war nro, of com so,
slight. America has scarcely been "bloodied." It
is true that the wor may cost tho United States
possibly fiO.OOO lives every one n precious offer
ing to freedom but several times ns ninny Amer
icans have died at homo during tho recent Inllu
oira epidemic.
When wo consider the number of Americans
who died In our Civil war, our present losses
seem almost trivial. Tho denths from nil causes
In the Civil war totaled 018.523 about "i5 times
as many lives as the world war cost tho United
States. Thoe killed In action on tho Union side
alone 110,070 men lighting for the North out
number more than two to one tho Americans who
have recently died fighting overseas.
The financial contribution Amerlcn lias made to
ward defeating the central powers Is magnificent
hut comparatively n small sacrlflco for tho rich
est country In tho world.
To date tho total war Indebtedness of tho Unit
ed States Is $17,852,377,000, distributed as follows:
