ms OF MISCELLANEOUS EXPENDITURE IN

In connection with the statement
the Minister mentioned that some
people might think it was going too
far to reply to newspapers not alto
gether friendly to this movement.
The BULLETIN had given figures to
show that the current expenditures
exceeded the current revenue. In
considering this subject the revenue
and expenditure for a whole year
must be considered to arrive at q
proper conclusion. There was one
month in the first half of this year
when the revenue was as low as
$4,000, which would not pay
salaries and ordinary current eI-
penses. Other months were little
better, and if they we're bound
to conine each months expendi-
lures to its revenue, great
many public services would have to
stop. There were some expenses of
government that had to be met
right along. But if they took it in
round numbers for the first six
months OF the Provisional Govern
ment, as compared with correspond
ing periods under former admins
trations, the record of this Govern
ment did not suffer. The expendi-
lures for the past six months had
been $4,000, against receipts of
$4,000, showing that they had
spent S253,OOO more than they had
received. There was a cash balance
at the start of $l9S,O00. The re-
ceipts for the corresponding period
OF last year were $4,000, against
an expenditure of S758,OOO, which
showed that the preceding Govern
ment exceeded their revenue in the
first six months of the year, when
the revenue was always lighter than
the second half Of the year, by
$2l4.0GO.
The present Government had i'm
proved on the former by not only
paying off all their own obligations,
but had paid between 100000 and
sl5O,OOO not belonging to this Gov
eminent. Therefore they could say
that the condition had been materi-
ally improved. A year ago there
was cash balance in the treasury
OF S67,79l.94, while to-day there was
one OF Sl50,O60.l9. This showed that
all along the line there was a steady
Improvement. He could account
for it in this way-that the com.
munity had been more thrifty in
ways of living, which had its influ-
ence on the Government, the Gov
ernment being only a reflex OF the
community. The Minister then re-
