than to state the total amount and that there had been reductions in many controllable expenditures.

But o statement accompanying tho estimates said that one of the largest reductions, $23,910,000 representing wheat acreage reduc- tion ayments, would have to be provl ed for later.

The apparent increase over the current year, $45,317,000, is far more than accounted for by increases in es ndit directly or indirect- 1i! ddue to the war, the statement s .

Largest of these increases is l63,260,000 1n interest on the pub- ic debt and other debt charges.

administration of the income and excess profits tax, un- errfialoyment insurance and Post Of ce department, bring the total increases to $81,809,000.

Reductions were made under 166 headings in this yQ-"s estimates. and the cut totalled $35,000,000. Of this $2 244,000

ll . is represented by the $23,910,000 in w eat acreage reduction pay- ments not yet provided for, Arnoéig other reductions were 91,209, in transport depart- ment capital expenditures, $539,377 1n the trade and commerce depart- ment, $406,361 in public works and $291,280 in mines and resources.

Economies Proetlseil

The fact that you and your council were able to keep expendi- ture within the estimated revenue and as well reduce the City's net indebtedness by $37,669.22 would attain seem to indicate sound od- ministration, and the practice of all economies consistent with the maintenance of the services to which our citizens are accustomed, and which they have the right to expect.

Your Committee is leased also to report that during e year 1942 $248,250.00 in 4 per cent City De- bentures was offered to Canadian investors and was sold at a small premium, giving the City the low- est cost money in many years. ‘fills l5 Wflrlihy of mention because the ready saleabillty of these de- bentures is evidence of an elation by dealers in mun cipal securities of a marked improve- tnent in our City's finances in the last few years, as it is less than five years ego that the City of Charlottetown offered an almost exactly similar sum—o245,000,- of 4 1-2 per cent Debentures and did not receive a firm bid, the best offer receeived being a suggested option at $96.00 per $100.00 Deben-

ure

To quote again from the Auditors’ report: “A continuation of the present policy cf careful attention to all matters, and gradually build- ing up the Sinking Fund will place the City in a preferred po- sition, without the tax-payer feel- ing it to any great extent”. This seems good advice, and if accept- ed, and followed strictly, should place our City in a favorable po- sition to meet and cope with the problems which must follow the conclusion of the war.

Your Committee regrets very much the unfortunate illness of one of its most valued members, Coun- cillor J.E. Stems. lvlr, Bterns is o business executive of proven Judg- ment and ability, and his advice on matters of Civic finance, and administration was invaluable to your Finance Committee. It is sincerely to be hoped that he en- joys a speedy return to a state of health which will permit him to resume his duties at. this Council Board.

Your Committee, too, Your Wor- ship, would like, on behalf of the entire Council. and the citizens whom we represent, to incorporate in the published reports of the City a brief expression of sympa- thy to Your Worshl on the sad bereavement you su fered in the death of Mrs. Holman. This very gracious lady was well known to all of us, and her charm and kind- ness at all City functions remains one of the pleasant memories of our service in this Council,

Your Committee thanks Your Worship, all members of your Council, the City. Clerk and his staff for the many courtesies ex- tended to it during the past year.

This report is respectfully sub-

lttedltbog behalf of the Finance
