Price of Peace.— Germany's “price of peace,” as it has been called, rather her preparation for Armageddon, amounts to nearly one half of her total Budget for 1911, which aggregates $73,000,000. Her army expenditure is set down at $200,000,000, and her navy at $110,000,000. Lloyd-George of Great Britain has computed the cost of national rivalry at $2,250,000,000 annually; of this Germany pays one seventh. And this in time of peace! Think of it! What an awful burden war would be.
