Increased Revenues For Coming
Year Are Predicted

London. April II RN-The "mys-
terry budget" covering fiscal year
1927-192S was laid before a crowd
this afternoon by Winston Churchill,
chancellor of the eXchequer. and
proved to be another four billion
dollar one.
1t will cost about s3o,O00.000 more
to run the British government dur
ing the next fiscal year. according to
Mr.. Churchill. He estimated ex-
penditures for next year at $751;
$50. 900. compared with SS16.64l 900
shown in the last budget. Receipts.
under present taxation rates. were
placed at s796,S5O,000, compared
with revenues Of fS04,70O,O0o esti-
mated in the last budget.
Blamcs General Strike
Mr.. Churchill delivered the expo
sition of the nations finances which
is the custom upon the Introduction
of the budget. He blamed the de-
felt of nearly f37,OO0,000 during the
present fiscal year on the general
strike and the prolonged coal strike
OF last year.
This Is not a time to bewail the
past" declared the chancellor of the
exchequer. but to pay the bill. 1t
is not for me to apportion the blame
hut only to apportion the burden.
| cannot present myself in the guise
of an impartial judge, I am only the
public executioner."
Won't Renew Credits
Despite the strikes. he continued,
the country's revenues had survived
the shock and British exchange had
stood like a rock. He said he did
not intend to renew the credits OBJ
tanned in the United States upon
their expiration next month.
Estimated expenditures for the
l921-19cS budget We're stated to be
fS1S.39o, 900 (about four billion dol
lars)
Discussing future revenue pros
poets, Mr.. Churchill said that. apart
from any unexpected development in
China, the estimates contained In the
budget were likely TO be solidly
maintained. He asserted. I'VE shall
MAINTAIN our pOSllloH iS me llndNCldI
center of the world and our eco
nomic position is unimpaired."
The chancellor made the cryptic
sta, cement that for the moment" he
was allowing in the estimated ex-
penditures for the payment to the
sinking fund of the statutory
amount of f50,o00.0Oo. There has
been much speculation over whether
he would raid the sinking fund to
make up the present years deficit.
Where to Cut
Explaining demands which have
been made for i40.000,00O cut In
national expenditures, Mr.. Churchill
said to cut the fighting services by
f2o.000.000 would cause a panic. To
cut the expenditures on education or
health would cause a convulson.
To effect economies he proposed
to abolish the transport ministry,
mines department and overseas de-
partment. There also is to be
