U.S. SOLDIERS
BEST FED AND
BEST CLOTHED
WASHINGTON, Ort. Hi. Wily does
It cost the United States so much
more to make war than it costs any
of its co-belligerents?
What is being done with the tens
of billions being raised from Liberty '
bonds and taxation. One often hears 1
these questions.
The answer is not difficult.
It is. simply, that it costs an Ameri
can more to do anything than it costs
anyone else in the world That is
the best reason why Americans should
buy Liberty bonds.
The American army is com posed
of workingmen. The American work
ingman demands a higher standard
of everything than any other work- j
ingman in the world. When lie be- j
comes a soldier he carries that stand- !
ard with him. and, comparatively,'
gets it.
Napoleon said, and cveayhody ever j
since has repeated, that an army trav-i
els on its stomach. So naturally tile- j
subsistence of the American soldier j
comes first in the long bill which is |
rapidly running to IfaO.ouo.iulo a day. '
Tlte regular ration list of tin- Amor )
iran army calls lor forty-nin% differ-I
cut items of food, it includes many j
things which are luxuries to the sol
diers of the foreign armies. \i that, ;
'it only costs :\z tents a day to teed i
la soldier. The liguto is low because
the government has the advantage of
dealing in billions and tons where the
individual deals in dollars and pounds,
liven so. the army has felt the in
creased cost iif I.v in : lii--ausc it cost
only 17.si cents a day to feed a ol
dior during the Spanish war

maloe . ‘"i" worth o| rice It
sounds almost like a food lull for a
nation
Without uny disparagi'iio at w >>;ii
j ever of the rationing system of the
i o-helligerents. it may he ; i,i that'
j while the food of the British soldier
I compares favorably with that of his
| American cousin, the French ration is
less acceptable to the American and
j that ot the Italians would get a very!
j cold reception.
The equipment of the American sol
diet- is no less up to standard than
his food. Since the beginning of the
war the government has spent $126.-1
000,0110 for shoos. Only recently tt ;
contract was let which Is Intended
to keep every soldier with two pairs
- one for marching and one for gen
eral wear. The price in quantity of
millions was well over $5 a pair. Old
soldiers of the regular army can re
member when the government issued
"hrogans ’ far removed in quality
! from the army shoe of today.
I he American soldier’s clothing so
far has cost a round $500,000,000. For
his blankets the government has spent
$150,000,000. Kverything else Is in
proportion, for in every particular of
ills equipment the government has
supplied the soldier with the same
relative high standard he was accus
tomed to at home in civil life The
extra cost of maintaining an army on
foreign soil has entered into the huge
•dll because it has hern found that
It costs $425 27 to equip and maintain
a soldier a year abroad as -gainst
$527.78 at home. Of this sum $251.85
goes for food. The rationing expense
at home is $189.80.
The high standard has been carried
to the soldiers’ pay. For all prac
teal purpose; of estimate t'’e Anieri
call soldier is the highest paid light
ing man in the world. He actually
gets more than the average Orman
officer To the $.‘tn a month a private
receives from the government is
added a sum for his dependents, de
pending upon their condition and
number. Canada and the other Brit
ish colonies more nearly approximate
the pay of the American soldier than
any others of the co-belligerents.
Taking into consideration all these
items, it is not strange that America’s
war bill Is greatest.
