Washington, Jan 26.—The lowest e obtainable from any anuthori- | tative source as to the amount the nations of the world will spend on {army and naval establishments dur- jing the current fiscal year is five | billion dollars. Without doubt this an ultra-conservative estimate. Recently Dir. Dernburg of many startled the world with statement that the lowest cost of maintaining the armed establishments of the world today is between seven and ecight billion gold dollars Dr. Dernburg had a reason making his estimate as high as pos- ! sible, which it is not necessary go into for the purposes of this ar- ticle. Making generous allo: | the facts is Ger- in the situation =eem burg average estimate of seven a half billion dollars is as near, if not nearer, the right figure than the low estimate of five billion dollars. These figures stagger the imagina- tion even in these days when ' the poorest of us have grown accustomed to speaking glibly of billions. They go to the very heart of the most vital of all the questions that | the people and statesmen of the world are facing and must solve before we can enter a new era of financial and industrial stability. That is the question of easing the burden of taxation. When T first read the Dérnburg statement it secmed inecredible that the actual picture of the world's arm- ament activities could be as gloomy as the one he had painted. Surely it could not be possible that two years after the greatest war in history——with the German military menace eliminated and with many of the nations on the verge of ruptey if not actually bankrupt-—sev- eral times as much money was being spent for armies, and navies spent before the war. * OPPOSE GOVT.

Washington, Jan. 26 —Progress on formation in the Dominican republic of the board to arrange with Ameri- can officials there for the transfer of the government to the natives reported today to the state depart- ment. A few members remain to be appointed but the department's infor- mation indicated that further delay was improbable. The American techni- cal advisors expected to be named soon. Widespread opposition among the natives to any change in the island government has been reported to the department. These reports indicated, it was said, that 95 per cent of the population opposed withdrawal of the Americans.

This would make a total naval ex- penditure of upwards of a bhillion and a half dollars. If you will add the three billion dollars for armies to the billion and a half for navies you will get the total of four and a half billions, This is for the five great powers only. In addition to this huge sum we must add what all the other nations Germany, the an countries, the South American countries, etc. Russia, of course, tops this list.
