Abstract

IT APPEARS easy to compute the cost of arming America, for apparently it is only necessary to sum up the defense requirements from the budget document for the current and the next fiscal years. According to the Budget Message, appropriations and authorizations enacted for national defense from June 1940 up to the present time, plus the recommendations for supplementary appropriations and authorizations for 1941, plus the recommendations contained in the budget for 1942, amount to $28,500,000,000. Is $28,500,000,000, then, the cost of arming America?
