Lonaon. aarch THE House OF
Commons unanimously voted today
appropriations for war expenditures
amounting to $l,A35.0eo.U making
the total yore for war expenses "a
date $3.236. 100000. The premier
first asked for an appropriation OF
1855. 100000 for the remainder OF the
period up to March 81. This was
adopted without q dissenting vote
Premier Asquith then stated tina,
the war expenditures were growing
steadily, and that after April l the.-
would probably average ss,50o.000 a
day. He, therefore asked for Sec
ond appropriation of $3.50. 900, 0e0
for expenses subsequent to March 81
This was also granted unanimously
being the largest grant ever allowed
by Parliament. As the preceding war
expenses had been $I,S00.e00 900, /,
brought the EraI.d total up to sa,235,'
600, 900.

crease in the expense after March n
