This article focuses on the expenditures in the second world war. The author says that the American newspaper had not given a true picture of their part in World War II. In most of the articles, pamphlets, and books which appeared during the war, and even in those published later, America's contribution was depicted as the decisive factor. America, Britain, and the white British dominions numbered about 220,000,000 people Germany and Austria 80,000,000-Germany's allies fought only on the eastern front. The author says that if at the close of the war it had been pounded home to the American people that they had waged only partial war.
