The idea of spending all that money on our army when we could be giving it to Europe

In this cartoon by Carey Orr, two men, "American pacifists," stand on a pile of money. One man prepares to give Europe money, "war debt cancellation propaganda." The other man grumpily drops a few coins on the plate, "31 cents for a day's rations," of a solider in the U.S. Army.
