LOWERED STANDARD Bankrupt Nation's Canc- O Carryinr On Lonf War At Enormous Price By CLAUDE A. JAOGER Associated Press Financial Editor NEW YORK. June 21: AP) War ;s fantastically costly. Yet a ; nation internationally bankrupt and vasUy deficient In natural resources Is able to build and launch a war machine of such might and destrucUveness as to shake the world. 1 How does Oermany cj it in defiance of traditional economics, in seeming repudiation of all accepted canons of finance? It was only six years ago that the Reich, 'denuded of gold and foreign balances and her credit shattered, 'suspended payments on all foreign i debts. Dr. HJalmar Schacht, then head of the Reichsbank, complained of his country's dependence on foreign raw materials, appealed to the world for a "spirit of com promise, patience and good will." Financially and economically, the nation seemed down and out. Yet within a few months Adolf Hitler was rapidly developing his vast and cosUy armament program Last autumn Hitler said he had spent 60.000.000,000 Reichmarks. The world was Incredulous. S-nce the German currency was unbacked by gold and had no free market, one could not say how much that was in dollars but. at ne official rate, it would come to $36,-000,000,000. What Germany is currently spending is not known but tne rate of expenditure is enormous. British sources iiave placed it at !$15,00O,COOJjO0 annually. Some estimates are higher. Aiy cons.dera-.tlon of what can be spent on war. economists explain, must begin by U (-1.1 ,1 . 1 a nuuiiuig mi peacetime sunaara. In 1914 economists were almost unammous that no uauon wa financially able to wa?e war for Jmore than a few months. Yet tht 'direct money outlays of the Firs Oreat War, exclusive of costs of life, destruction of property, depreciation of capital and loss 0, , trade, has been calculated at the astronomical figure of $186,000, 000,000, about seven times ti entire amount spent by the United States government from 1789 to i ,1916.

Thus, economists explain, the whole national effort is geared for war. Normal replacements and repairs to industrial plants, houslna. institutions, not needed for the eon-duct ot the war. are neglected. Walther Funk, present head of the Reichsbank, said In April production of consumers' goods must be restricted and business men must lefraln from investing in replacements. Savings, he said, must be made available to the Reich through savings banks and credit institutions. How much of the total German effort is going into war it Is impossible to estimate, but an an lyd of the situation at the outbreak of the war, reoeatly made public by the US. Derailment of Commerce said that taxes and other levies in the fiscal year 1938-39 took 47 per cent of the national income Currently, the percentage is presumably higher. j But aside from the intensive Internal organhtttton of the Reich, she has the problem of finding ways to obtain essential materials from abroad. Of three principal industrial materials coal, iron and petroleumGermany is well supplied only with coal. Domestic sources of cotton, wooi, copper, rubber and a host of other materials, are lack-in?. Regulation of Trade First, jay international trade authorities. It must be remembered that Germany imported greatly more than her normal needs c.f many supoHe in the years before the war.
