Neither J oil nor anybody else bus the falute.it conceit' tlon of what ono billion dollars really Is. Wo speak familiarly of billions its u commonplace, imt most of us live our lives In terms of hundreds. I havo shown you thnt every one of us, man, woman and child, lu this country, paid last year $r;t."7 each trwattl the support of the government. Of course, every person dues not pay exactly $X.", A great many pay more ami some pay less; but those who pay tho must try to take It out of thote who pay tho least by Increas ing tho prices of what they have tt sell, or of services rendered or work performed, ko that It averages out at $K1,77. Some pay more than their shnre. others pay less. This Is culled an Incident of taxation. The whole point Is, that wo all pity; thnt wo pay nuw more than w ever paid before; nnd there Is no present prospect of our pitying less for some jears. In this way we havo all paid our shore In tho World war. Tho net cost of (hat enterprise to tlnte has been $2l,10O,tHj(j.iHK. or. Including our loans to foreign governments, which hnvo not been repaid, KUI.I.VHXMHK). Theo nm olllclul treasury figures. Do not let your eyes run over them lightly, Thlrty-threo billion four hundred anil flfty-llve million dollars Is an nlmott Incomprehensible sum. Tho cint of running the nntlenal government Is now nrouml ?5,(m)0,001I a year. The e.xTt say that for the next two or three years the cost of the government will not descend below about S-I.IKJO,-000,000 a year. I want you clearly to understand thn Immensity, the magnitude, the over whelming size of such sums. We ch'ntter about billions nowadays with out In the least knowing what U n billion. Let me try to bring It homo to you. it Is now, roughly speaking. 1020 years since the birth of Christ. Wo do not know precisely ami accu rately nt what hour nml on what day Christ wm born. But under tho Gre gorian calendar, according to which wo now reckon time, wo have record of the days since January first of the year one. Anno Domini. From the beginning of the year ono to Jnn unry 1, Ifr.'l, there elnpn-d nhotit 701. 207 days, or, to reduce It further, 1(1,830,-103 hours, which ho'ng reduced ngnln, means I.W.W.M.-im) minutes. I will ask you to remember that, tho whole history of tho modern world from the llrst second of tho year out) to tho last second of the year 1(120 has been compressed Into l.OOU.SUI.-ISO minutes. Now let us suppose thnt with tho ! permission of tho Roman authorities Hie United .States hail established n ! disbursing olllcer at Jerusalem on tho first day of tho year one with InstrtiC' lions to pay out $5 n minute day and night, .Sundays and holidays Included, right down through tho centuries to New Year's day, 1021. Suppose ho hail been given S.'i.lKO, 005,700 to start him on his long spell of spending. Thnt Is ono estimate of tho sum that It cost to run this gov ernment lu 1020. On the morning of January 1, 1021, this mythical disburs ing olllcer, giving money nway at tho rate of S.1 n rnlnute, would havo spent only $3,OIO,121',-I00, and would still be ono of the richest men lu the world, for bo would have left on hand JftK!.8&,!,.'iOr! of the orlglnul sum. Paying out nt tho rate of S.' a minute for mori than 1000 years, ho would not have kept pace with the coit of upkeep of (his government for the one single year 1020. Huppo.se this Imngmnry government Bpeniler hnd been authorized to pay out at tho rate of $2,1 a minute through the centuries. H would not havo finished, on January 1, 1021, paying for our share of tho cost of the World war by sonio $78-1, 0.10,0 CO. Ho would have that much left over after paying out $2.1.22:5,003,010, He would havo been paying out nearly -10 cents every sec ontl the clock ticked for moro than 10 centuries without being nhlo to dis charge our share of the World war cost. Do you ever bother your bond about these bushels and bushels of dollars that you contribute to tho support of tho government? You earned them. You know whether thej-enmo rnslly or not. Do you know where they go after they lo-tvo you, how tltey nro spent, whether wisely or foolishly! It's nil your monoy, contributed for tho proper nml economic conduct of your iHiMnefK. Thero Is no such thing as government money, Tho govern ment never earned n cent. You own tho government and you Mipport it, nnd It Is merely adminis tered by men of your selection. I have always been puzzlrd about -why you do not tnko nn-nctlve nnd eager jntercst In what becomos of your money that ymi pity lu taxes, But let's go on and get down to coses.
