I , .,. ,,,h, Hg,-,-qs--. Of the great population in the United States today, there are hundreds and thousands of men between the ages of forty and forty-five who experienced the horror and blood-shed which the World War brought upon them. Many of these men have on their bodies the marks ot their sufferings. some of than are totally crippladg others are blindg many, many more are shell-shocked. The veterans' hospitals or the country receive increased numbers each year. This is one part of the price that manners paying for their experience in war. lar has always been one of the sources of humsnl misery, passed from one generation to another. ,It le impossible to count the total oost prewar because of ' these losses tor which the war is indirectly responsible and tor which there are no figures. Records do show, however, that during the World War there were tw nty- eight million civilians who lost their lives. The des- truction ot modern wars can best be realizes when com- pared with wars that were fought in earlier times. In the American civil War seven hundred thousand soldiers were killed, in the Franco-Prussian Wares hundred and eighty-tour thousand, and in the Spanish-American War ten thousand. In the World War about ten million soldiers were lost, in addition tenths civilian losses stated aboveu - Nicholas Murray Butler, President or Oolumbla University, estimates that the World War cost tour hundred millions or dollars. -with the money that was spent in this useless carnage,he states that houses I could have been built at a cost of twentyatlve hundred p dollars each, furnished with a thousand dollars' worth of furniture, all could have been put on a five-acre- plot or land worth one hundred dollars an sore, and such a home could have been given to every family in United States, Canada, England, Germany, and Ruesist Every city in the countries named whose population is twenty- thousand could have been given a tensthouaand-dollar university. Out of the money left there could have been set aside a sum at five per cent interest which would provide a salary of a :vonsahd dollars a year for'et hundred and twenty-tive thousand twghhers and for the same number of nurses. ' . Why, then, do 'highly clvillzedn countries resort to wastes which brings only misery? Thousands ot pro- fessors, teachers, and historians have tried in vein to answer the question. The beat guess on the part of honest thinkers is that war has no ground except that or selfishness, hatreds, propaganda,'rnd the thirst for power ot military leaders. On the common sense s1de,-- is war a good investment?--Roger Oheeaeman '41
