The italian embassy has been In
formed that forty new Austrian d.
visions have been distributed along
the Italian front
THAT the battle in France will not
prevent the Austrian offensive against
Italy," said a cable from Rome, sis
the founded opinion of competent
military men of Italy. The allies are
also OF this opinion. so much so that
not one single man of the Franco
British forces in Italy has been with
drawn. This statement disposes of
the assertion of the German COM
munique that the British forces in
Italy had been brought to the French
front.
I'm connection with the expected
drive against Italy, 1t Is stated that
at least forty new Austrian divisions
have been distributed along the Ital-
ian front. All available artillery has
also been transferred from the Rus
sian and Roumanian fronts to the
Italian front. Italy must. therefore.
be prepared for the coming blow,
which the situation in France may
have postponed. but which must be
made in very near future"

BULGAR|A'S DEBT
GROWS AS
WAR PROGRESSES

NEW YORK, March 2e.-The Frank
furter zeitung in one OF the last is
sues to reach this country discusses
Bulgaria's financial situation and out
lines the Bulgarian budget for 1918.
The state finances of Bulgaria, it is
stated, show one thing in common
with all the belIigerent countries
that the public deficit and the public
debt have risen higher than ever he
fore.
Until the first Balkan war the
finances OF Bulgaria were in an ex-
cellent condition. In 1911, the last
year before the Balkan wars, Bull
garia's inc comes amounted to 1879 900 900
lewas Tone Bulgarian lewa, s019), and
the expenses 100000, 900. In former
years there had been deficits ranging
from 100000 TO 2.OOO.OO annually.
but there had also been considerable
SURPRISES which covered the debts
completely. IN December 81. 1912.
the funded debt OF Bulgaria reached
$4,000, 900 lewas. OF this sum CT .O0O.-
900. that is. 10 per cent, had been paid
back, which left n public debt of 625.-
100000 leSTas. The loans had been
chiefly made from a banking syndi-
cate in Paris TO which several German
bankers belonged
The Washington times. [volume] (Washington [D.C.]) 1902-1939, 1918-03-29
Balkan War ChanEes-

The Balkan war naturally meant a
complete change OF these favorable
conditions. The public debt increased
by nearly COO. 900 900 on account OF
war costs, and togeImer with other ex-
penses IT reached ] 300 900 600 II lewas.
1t was covered by the Issuance of
treasury notes, reQuisition bonds and
state loans from the Bulgarian Ma
tional Bank.
In the. middle OF the year 1914.
shortly before the beginning Of the
world war, Bulgaria borrowed 5OO.-
900 900 lewas from a banging syRdi-
cate headed by the Disconto- Gesell-
schaft: this sum was to be paid in va
rious rates. How far this loan has
been realized is not known definite
ly. According 10 the report Of the
Bulgarian minister of finances made
public at the last session OF the So
branje, the consolidated public deDt
OF Bulgaria amounts at present to
approximately 1.0OO. 900. 900 Iewas.
The budgets OF the years beginning
with 1912 cannot be compared with
those OF former years. for 1912 and
1918 and 1918 to 1918 have been war
years during which, as in all belliE-
erent countries, the extraordinary
military expenses haev made evtraor.
din&ry budgets. In this way 1913
theoretically had a favorable surplus
OF 1000. 900, though there was n deficit
OF twelve million lewas in 1914. when
the income was 224. 900 600 lewas and
the expenses 236,OOO.OOO

More UnfnyornbIe.

During the following years the re-
lation between incomes and expenses
became still more unfayorable and
was due to the decrease in returns
from taxes and custom dues.
According to the figures given out
by the minister Of finances to the
Bulgarian SobranJe. the last three
years have yielded the following re-
suits:
IsI5-Incomc. 1914 millions: deficit,
Il millions.
1s16--Income. 275 millions; deficit.
IL millions.
1917-Income. 3o2 millions; dencit,
40 millions.
The figures for 1917 are naturally
Incomplete. If the advance estimate
IL correct, the expenses will totRl 49,
million lewas and the incomes about
300 millions. From this IL is evident
that the ordinary budget has doubled
within the last Ave years.
In the budget for 1918 the expenses
are placed at 4T9.41 million lewas
and. the incomes at 4Sl.lO million
Iewas OF the expenses At millions
are to be spent in old Bulgaria and
SO millions in the newly conquered
territories.

Total Debt Scars.

Considering the experiences OF for
mer years, It cannot be stated with
certainty whether the estimated in
come will be obtained. The only new
financial measure lis the recent law
on war profits, from which 100 mil
lion lewas Is expected. The expecta-
ton of an increase in indirect in
comes II based on the returns which
the state has been receiving from to-
bacco.

Other advices report great activity

it is said, is not a complete refusal
Of the presidents demands.
Still other advices say the presi-

ated a new state of affairs in diplo-
