$30,117,000,000 WAS SPENT UPON
WAR BY AMERICA
Taxes Paid for 29 Percent, Glass Reports Remainder Comes From Bonds.
fBv Associated Press WASHINGTON, July 10 The war cost the United States $30,117,000,000 up to June 30, 1919. Secretary Glass made this estimate today In submitting to the congres
sional appropriations committees the preliminary statements of the treasury on the conditions of the nation's finances. He arrived at the estimate by subtracting the average peace-time expenses for the same length of time, at the rate of $1,000,000,000 annually, from the total expenditures, $32,427,000,000 during the war. Further Bonds Unnecessary Taxes and other revenues than borrowed money took care of $9,384,000,000 or about 29 per cent of the war cost. The remainder came from Liborty bonds and Victory note issues and Barings stamps. Further Issues of bonds, Mr. Glass paid, will not be necessary "before the maturity or redemption of the Victory notes," which have four years to run. While It is impossible to estimate the expenses to be incurred during the present fiscal year, the secretary Is confident that treasury certificates, supplemented by short-term notes, will provide the necessary funds to pay the government's debts.

FIGHT TO SAVE NEW STARTED BY MOTHER
LOS ANGELES, Cal., July 10. The fight to save Harry S. New who claims his father Is United States Senator Harry S. New of Indiana, from the gallows has begun. Today New sat in a cell at the county Jail, where he was taken yes
terday after being formally charged with first degree murder, awaiting his preliminary examination, set for Monday, and what he says is still more
important and the only thing he fears
facing his mother.
Mrs. Lulu Burger, the mother, reached her Glendale home today from
Indianapolis while the funeral of Miss
Lesser was in progress. Seeking to avoid the curious, she left the train at Pasadena and was taken by automobile to her home. Hearing his mother would visit him before night, New apparently was steeling himself for the meeting. Mrs. Burger is expected to immediately begin the work of formulating a definite defense. Already Dr. L O. Sawyer has made a mental examination of New. He declares he believes New does not know the real difference between right and
wrong at all times that he Is not a sane man. There are rumors that New's defense has been financed from a source which will not come to light Immediately.

The war department this week reports Private Theodore E. Wright, Company M, 28th Infantry, Williamsburg, Ind., as killed in action. Last December the department reported Private Wright, who is the son of Mrs. Lizzie Wright. Williamsburg,
as severely wounded, October 1. Later It was reported at various times that Wright had been killed, was missing in action and finally that it was not established whether he had been killed or was missing. A cablegram received a few days ago stated that Wright had been buried on Oct. 26. Private Paul Turner of Richmond, Ind., was with Wright on the day he was killed. A shell exploded near them and both were knocked over. Turner was unconscious for some time and when he recovered he called to Wright but received no answer. He was too severely wounded to search
for his comrade and was finally taken to a hospital without having learned whether Wright had been killed or had only been wounded.
