THREE-FOURTHS OF U.S. INCOME SPENT ON WARS Past, Present and Future Armaments Cost Four Billions During Fiscal Year. COST TO OTHER POWERS WASHINGTON, July 12.—War. past, .present and future, the United State* "nearly four billion dollars In the fiscal year ended July 1, Tteasury Department records showed today. Seventy-fire cents out of each dollar of the taxpayers went into bills arising from war or preparation for war. Other nations are spending as great or a greater percentage of their income for War. This explains why the people are bringing pressure on their governments to accept President Harding's invitation for a disarmament conference. * Tax collections for the year totaled $5,113,828,000, while disbursements for war purposes amounted to $3,538,928,000. without taking i. to account millions paid out in pensions by the pension bureau, by the war risk bnreau and a score of other expenditures by departments which are not generally classified as war conducting branches of the Government. COST 2 PER CENT YEAR. The percentage spent for war In tne previous fiscal year ended .Tune SO. 1820, was 92 cents out of each dollar co!lec*ed ltt taxes. The actual amount was $5,934,235.000. But In that year the Government received In ta-res a total of $6,403.544.000. In the fiscal year Just ended, therefore, war cost the peat's Government of the United States just $2097,288.000 less than In the preceding fiscal year. For the first eleven months of the fiscal year Just ended the Government spent a total of $3,483,142,000 for war purposes. Os this the largest single item was the maintenance of the War Department and the Army for which a total of $987,584,000 was expended. The Navy Department ■pent s<>lo,ooo,ooo. This Is a total for these two defense departments of $1,597,584.000. NEARLY BILLION IN INTEREST. Interest on the public debt, mainly arising from the great war. cost the Government $859 658,000 in the first eleven months of the fiscal year. Detailed figures for the entire year will not be available for several days. The shipping board, created during and as a result of the World War, spent a total of $131,739,000 without counting the loss that wjis incurred when the board was forced to sell ships at far below what they cost the Government. This loss is ao item that will Increase during the present fiscal year as more and more ships are disposed of. The Government paid $728,588,000 to the railroads on account of obligations Incurred during the Government control brought on during the war. These are only the larger expenditures.

PLAN TO BLOCK NEW FIREHOUSE West Sidprs to Vent Ire on Safely Board. The board of public safety will come In for Its bliure of criticism which citizen* of West Indianapolis have been heaping upon city departments at a meeting of the Enterprise Civic League la Assumption Hall. 1100 Blaine avenue, this evening, leaders in the movement to d!annex that section from the rest of the city, predicted today. Proposed location of anew firehouse at River and Oliver avenues will be the point upon which the dissatisfied citizens will base statements that the board of safety, like the r* ,t of the administration of Mayor Charles W. Jewett, thinks of every other section of the city before it remembers there is such a place as West Indianapolis, it was said. The Juncture of P.lver and Oliver avenues Is at the northeast corner of West Indianapolis and location of a firehouse there would not add to the fire protection of the district at all. the citizens contend. The board of safety plans to put the station here so that It may serve the Induatrial section to the eas. and West Indiananolls only incidentally, they add. A' recommendation *hat the station be located on or west of Belmont avenue so as to take care of th far western district will be made, it is under stod. The league will dc'initely dtclde what it will do with Its petition for disannexatlon at the meeting It may be presented either to a Marlon County court or the city council, leaders said.

McAdoo, former secretary of the treasury, who It In Washington today. McAdoo said today he was heartily pleased that President Harding had taken the initiative lu limiting world arum mentx as a preventive against future wart, but be believed that entrance luto the league of Nations would have been the better way "I km gratified that the administration la going to heed the popular will In this matter." said McAdoo.

Harding's Aims Set Forth in 3 Points to Bring World Peace WASHINGTON. July 12.—America's aim* In th proposed international confer* no* on ii*arinnn>m? and affair* In the Pacific were outlined c high authority today. The aim* t re: 1 Removal of sources of International friotlon at a nece**ary prelude to effective disarmament. 2. Extension of the disarmament principle wherever po**lb!e to stop the u*e of km, aircraft and other means of warfare. a. Adoption of a principle for Siberia, similar to the open-door policy of China. The belief here Is that before effective disarmament agreements can be reached, the causes of International misunderstandings must l>e removed, else nations will not agree to limit armahients. Tills expression was taken ns practUally a certain Indication that far ecstern affairs will be token up by tfi.* conference before disarmament because It is In that region that the cause for misunderstandings now exist. The Anglo-Japanese alliance Is one of the matters sure to eome up early in the ceofarenee, It Is believed. The action of (treat Ilrltaln In postponing any definite action on this treaty for one year was obviously pleasing to this Government. The Yap matter also will come up If It is not settled before the conference. Siberia Is another field where the growth of friction Is feared. flinee Russia cannot be Invited to the conference this Govemmo-jt hopes to apply the open door in tliat territory.

The Inclusion of the whole problem of the Pacific and Far East in the program is not plCa.ilng to 1 oklo according to well Informed quarters.

PARIS, July 12, Prerrler Briand, In behalf of France today accepted President Harding s Invitation to an international conference to discuss disarmament. Announcement that France accepted was contained In a speech delivered by the premier in the Chamber of Deputies. It was received with terrifl' applause. After informing the Chamber that France Is now In receipt of the official offer from the American President, Premier Briand said : "France has readily accepted the pro poaal In order to show the government’s desire for peace " After the applause had subsided the premier continued.. “I want to thank the American executive for having thought of France, there by rendering homage to her pacific spirit, ‘‘France Is resolutely determined to find meant of limiting armaments Out of this proposed conference perhaps will come agreements which guarantee the future peace of the world. “France also has an interest in the Pa elite which we must not neglect. “We trust that the Chamber of Deputies will approve the government's acceptance of the noble appeal of President Harding In order to give France that security which Is her right.'* When the premier finished, the applause broke out again, lasting several minutes The Chamber and Senate will adjourn tonight for several months. It Is learned the Rene Vlviani has tele graphed to Geneva suggesting a postponement of the League of Nations Congress on disarmament which was sched uled to open here Saturday. The chamber quickly gave its formal approval of the premier’s action. There was no dissent. SEE NO CLASH WITH LEAGUE LONDON, July 12.—Forjlgn office officials today scoffed at the view ex Dressed in some quarters in England and France that President Harding's proposed international conference may be the first step in the creation of an association of nations rivaling the League of Nations. It was pointed out that President Harding's proposal for a meeting to discuss disarmament and far east problems received the hearty Indorsement of the dominion premiers who are the strongest adherents of the League of Nations. I.ord Robert Cecil, chief exponent of the League of Nations in Great Britain, raid he welcomed the proposal for an international conference. “I see no threat against the supremacy of the League of Nations,” declared Losrd Robert Cecil. Premier Meighen of Canada, In an interview printed In the Times today praised lhe American offer. The Canadian premier was quoted as saying: “To a distracted world the message offers new hope and promise of relief. Nowhere is President Harding's proposition welcom'd more eagerly than in Canada. I hope it will be thoroughly successful in bringing nearer the time when wars will cease entirely.” Suggestions are doing made that there should be a preliminary conference to discuss the technical aspects, thus shorttning the work of the real international conference when it meets in Washington. It is believed that, if President Harding's proposition is successful, the disarmament and Far East conference will he convoked at Washington about the middle of autumn.

PACKERS WILL BE QUESTIONED Illinois Investigation of State Funds’ Use Strikes in High Places. SPRINGFIELD, 111.. July 12.—Two officials of Chicago packing companies were summoned today to appear before the Sangamon grand Jury in connection with the Juggling of $10,000,000 In State funds. ' Sheriff Masters went to Chicago to subpoena Fred VV. Crowell, treasurer or Armour and Company, and A. L. Carton, treasurer of Swift and Company. Claims that these two companies were permitted ft. borrow ten million dollars from the State on which only 2 per cent Interest was received by the State treasnrer are being probed by the grand Jury. The investigation which got under way yesterday, may he used as a basis for civil suits against Governor Len Small, Lieut. Gov. Fred Sterling and Auditor Andrew Russell, all of whom served terms as State treasurer, to recover $2,000,000. This is the amount which Attorney General Edward Brundage believes is due the tSate In Interest money withheld from State funds by former treasurers. In case the evidence presented to the grand Jury warrants, the former State treasurer*, also may face criminal charges. The grand Jury resumed !ts Investigation with State Treasurer Edward E.

loafing with the other colored gentlemen in the basement of the city hall. Several weeks ago It was discovered that while these officers were reporting hourly to Miss Meany moat of their reports were being made from a few* downtown private telephones. At that time the board of safety issued orders that they should report to the Gamewell operator the same as other members of the police department. Following that order, a perusal of the monthly report of the society revealed that the four officers were reporting more Investigations and Inspections than the whole of the regular police force. FACETIOUS SUGGESTION. It has been facetiously suggested that the conference of the officers of the humane society last night was to consider whether. In view of the marvelous record of th four sergeants, It would not lie possible to assign them to policing the city and dispense with approximately four hundred patrolmen, thereby carrying out Controller Bryson's recent and imand for economy In all departments, i It is understood that an invitation was ! extended to George Williams, executive secretary of the board of public safety, to j attend the meeting ti order that he might [convey to the board tne confidence of 'he executive officers In their ability to “dej liver the goods" whenever the board of j safety desires to retire from active duty. • The policy of absolute secrecy, announced recently by W. H. Roberts, president of the society, has not prevented It becoming known that at the ; last executive meeting W. A. McConnell, I an employe of the city board of health ! and a veterinarian who has been very | active In the Humane Society work, submitted his resignation from the board of directors. McConnell is reported to have been censored in the belief that he was responsible for the public attention attracted by the obviously padded report [ of the humane officers for the month of ! May. | McConnell, who never heretofore has [ subscribed to a policy of secrecy coni eerning public business, is also rej ported to have expressed a realization of the impossibility of carrying out the toard’s policy and to have declined to be a party to It. The society continues to hold him forth as a member of the board, regardless of what legal complications might arise as a resu't of such action. It Is also un- ! derstood that In order to further the I policy of secrecy the board of dtreci tors has failed to supply the secretary with reports submitted at the last uaeet- ! ing. and there exists no record of the regular board session such as an incorporated society is required to keep by the laws of Indiana.
