Paris, December 10-Racul Peret,
formerly Minister of Commerce, dis
cussing in the Chamber of Deputies
last evening in behalf of the appropria-
ton committee, the budget for the first
three months Of 1917, pointed out that
France will have incurred expendi-
lures to the amount of 72,OOO, UUo. 900
francs between the opening of hostili-
ties and the end of March next, while
Great Britain in the same period will
have had an outlay of 10000 900, 900
of francs.
This statement drew EXPLANATIONS
from the deputies that Great Britain
is thus proved to have collaborated
cordially and completely"
The resources of Mr.. Peret put
against the expenditures made an au-
thorized amount approximately of Ca
900, 100000 francs, as follows:
Ten billion two hundred million tax
receipts, SS.7OO. 100000 short and long
term bonds of France, 100000, 900
loans from England and the United
States, 5000, 100000 advanced by tho
Bank of France. 2OO,OOO,O0O advanced
by the Bank of Algeria. This leaves
an apparent deficit of 100000, 900
francs. Mr.. Peret said this does not
represent the actual expenditures. but
