War Must End in July Owing to Exhaustion
London financial writer Edgar Crammond told the Royal Statistical Society that the war should end by July due to belligerent exhaustion. He estimated total costs to July at 16.99 billion dollars and direct losses at 16.74 billion, with Britain spending about 3.54 billion. The Times noted Asquith’s higher figure of 2.4 billion may be too low, and cautioned a new war loan could be needed by May.
