With regard to Fiance he says or**
cannot reckon the loss sutl'ercd, “but

thinks that $."*0,000,000 would reim

Shippin; losses are then discussed.
“I estiniat* .” he says, “the loss ot

Regarding Germany’s finances, i
t calls attention to the last prewar bud j
get presented to the Reichstag, whic
' showed a revenue of $875,000,000. Tb<
estimate for the army was $202,500,*
000, and for the navy $107,500,000 -
' total $400,000,000.
“Kliminating the expenditure f<v
aramaments,” the article goes on,
; “this would allovs Germany to pnv
appioximately the interest and sin'.
!ng fund on the $7,500,000,000 com
pensation, leaving the balance of rev
enue, whatever it might be, to meet
the cost of conducting the empire and
paying the interest on her loans,
which amounted early in the present
year to $27,000,000,000, a sum which
has, of course, been substantially in
creased since.”
In order to meet the Allies’ bill of
damages, the writer says, “it may be
! that Germany would have to suspend
I payment of interest on her own war
| loans — I don’t say she would repu
