Dec. 21. 0J.W More than ten years after the end of hostilities, the World war is still costing the Tnited States about one bilbon and a quarter dollars an nually. lu bis annual report for 1027, Secretary of the Treasury Mellon estimated the total money cost of the war to the United States as $ar,nVM2J,144. ThU estimate was revised in Melon's report for the present year mid the total now is placed at dtS.v.(iO,2.'V2.0tt:t. an increase for the year of $1,2-H.60H.!U1. Continuing cost-s of the World war are the expenses of the Veterans' Bureau, interest on that part of the public debt of the linited States created as a result of the war, and cons unction of hospitals for the care of veterans of the war, Mellon explained. Total monoy cost of the war to this country is arrived at by de ducting the normal expenditures of the government during the "war perimi" from the total expenditures between the declaration of war on April 0, 1.117, and the official end of the slate of war with Germany on July 2, U2t. The "war period" did not end officially until three years after the Armistice and after signing of the Versailles treaty. In 1027, the treasury made a de tailed analysis of the total expendi tures of the government for the four-year war period, and this has i now been revised up to June 30, 102S, together with the continuing , costs of the war. j As a result of this analysis, Mel- Ion said, it is believed thnt a con- 1 servative estimate of the net cot of the war to the United States baa, been ascortained. j Obligations uf foreign governments to the United States, which now ; total $ll,853,40fi,78i"i.r5, are elim-i inaled from the costs because these debts Are gradually being repaid by i most of the foreign governments, j Payments to be received from abroad have been discounted In this cost 1 estimate so as to show their present j value under the various funding agreements. Tim treasury estimates . t ho "asset value" of all funded for-' eign obligations at 60 per cent of their face value. On this basis, the present value of the foreign debts is estimated by the treasury nt $7,470,000,000. The debts of Austria and Greece, though not yet funded, have been included on a similar 00 per. cent basis be cause it is assumed that those coun tries will eventually fund their debts. The French debt has been funded, but neither France nor the United States has yet ratified the agree ment FERTILIZER ARRIVES F( Consignments of fertilizers suffi cient for three prune orchards, two walnut groves and one filiert grove have been received by the Ijine Coun ty Horticultural society from the Har rett company at San Francisco, ac cording to County Arnit V- S.
