' More than accounting for the increase of $26,912,704

defence purposes the balance going into a sinking fund. The vote is divided into two parts, $34,042,073 for ordinary expenditures on defence and $29,405,102 for capital ex.-

penditures 0n defence.

‘Ilhe sinking fund, for which pro- vision is started under the de- fence vote, is designed to amortize the defence capital expenditures over s. period of 10 yearn. thus re- ducing the Government's net mil- inate of ordinary expenditures during 1039-40 to $427,830,113, a decrease of $2,492,397 as compared with the total ordinary vote for 1908439.

Last year the special supple- mentaries for these purposes asked for an additional $95.l49,3i-i2, mak- ing a total of 3525371892 vol/es for all purposes during the fiscal year closing March 31 next.

The vote for Public Works will be only $12,457,532 as compared with $18,534,375 in the last nmlll estimates but it is anticipated this decrease will be more than offset when the suplementaries are brought, in.

Inst year the ordinary mentary estimates called for $5.- 534/750 for Public Works, in ad- dition to the 812.997.4225 asked I01‘ in the main estimates, and $8,106,- 790 for special works projects.

Largest Share

Of the total vote asked for in Harley's estimates the Finance De- partment. as usual. takes the larg- est share —~Sl0l.,a00,850, of which $134,462,792 goes to pay interest and charges on the public debt.

National defence makes the next

est demand on the treasury. B of the increase over last years vote will go for buildings, stores and equipment.
