In those twelve months the United States spent a total of $8,375,815,524. »Note that the figures is in bil lions of dollars). In giving out the information, the treasury calls attention to the fact that the stricty military part of the total was seven and a quarter billions while one billion, one hundred twenty millions, were spent on what the treasury class ifies as non-military costs of the Korean war. It is not stated what items are included under head ing “non-military” but 1 assume that list would include aid to the war-ruined civilian population of Korea. * * * I ollars can be replaced or at least they represent only mate- rial things.

At mid-July total cost of the Korean war measured in human casualties was: Killed in action or dead of wounds, 13,230; missing, 12,237 (includes prisoners); wounded, 55,125.
