The ultimate factor In war finance
Is not the dollnr, but what th dollar
cun buy—at the moment when It is
necessary to use It. The economic
burden of a war Is not borne by capi­
tal. that Is, the stored-up savings In­
vested in rnllrouds, factories and
banks, but by the productive power of
the eiAintry, engaged in unproductive
consumption. For war Is waste, ob­
serves the April La llevlsta del Mun­
do.
When estimating the financial abil­
ity of a nation to make war a consid­
eration of her wealth dues not tell the
story. Just as a consideration of popu­
lation. which would give Russia the
first place, wouid be altogether lais. .
It is the ability a nation has to master
and mobilize her dollars and send
them Into the trenches and make them
tight, that reveals her financial power
as a military nation. Germany, with
her long preparation, her autocratic
government machinery, was able to
conscript all production for war pur­
poses, and mass her economic strength
almost as speedily ns she massed her
fighting meu.
Great Britain and the United States,
not being versed in the science of war
did not understand this factor. The
economic resources of these countries
were not mobilized and massed all at
once, but each government was forced
to take over more and more of the ma­
chinery of production as war ueeds
became Increasingly great. These two
countries, with bulldog, but mistaken,
determination, clung to the slogan.
"Business as usual,” as long as it was
possible to do so. The business men
of those countries believed that so long
as there was plenty of money In circu­
lation every one would be able to
turn to, buy gtnornment bonds and
thus assist In the business of war. But
this fallacy is akin to the common one
of mistaking dollars tor wealth.
The cost of the war, as nearly as ft
can be estimated In money, shows the
national debt which each belligerent
now carries ranges from 4.6 per cent
of the nntlonal wealth (In Japan) to
80 per cent of the national wealth (in
Hungary). How these staggering lia­
bilities are to be met Is the problem
for the future; but the United States,
with a debt amounting to 6 per cent
of her national wealth of $250,000,000,-
000, is in the favored position undoubt­
edly, facing unprecedented possibilities
