Congress has already appropriated more than $15,000,000,000 to modernise and enlarge the Army and Navy. Yet this sum is, compara- tively, a mere trifle as compared with the amounts that will be needed if the United States is to bring its military machine to the same level as that of the totalitarian states.

General George Marshall, Army Chief of Staff, recently told the Senate Appropriations Com-on before sending. mittee that it would cost the United States $100,000,000,000 to duplicate the German army and its equipment.
In addition to the $15,000,000,000 already allocated for defence purposes, it is estimated that at least ten billions will probably be required to equip adequately an army of 2.000.000 men.
Thus the cost of only the original equipment will run around $35,000,000,000, The annual maintenance cost of a two-ocean navy is calculated at a minimum of one billion dol- lars, with maintenance cost for the proposed army of 2,000,000 men averaging between two and three billions per year. Replace- ment of material for both army and navy will probably approxi- mate five billions yearly.
In breaking down these stag- gering figures, military and naval leaders admit that many unforeseen factors can Cause substantial change in what, at the present time, are merely tentative guesses.
