~Seen Nkrumah Downfall -—economic facts of life. _ ACCRA (AP) — Diplomatic quarters here express belief President Kwame Nkrumah might have..remgined in power had he been able to grasp the “Nkrumah was often a bril- Mant politician but his fiscal policies. were those of a dull eight-year-old,” said one vet- eran diplomat.. The new military regime, which threw out the‘ leftist leader Thursday, portrayed in its first announcement a once- affluent nation plunged into: eco- nomic chaos. : “The. country is on the brink ef national bankruptcy,” said the National Liberation Council. When Ghana gained independ- ence from Britain in 1958, it faced a bright future with more died with staggering national debts. The interest. alone has drained, the treasury. : ‘ALL HAVE SUFFERED’ “All of us have suffered in one way or another from the gross economic mismanagement of the old government,”’ said the council analysis. It cited a 66-per-cent rise tn the cost of living since 1963, chronic shortages in consumer goods and widespread .unem- ployment. Despite. his arrogance and often extreme policies;: diplo- mats here said Nkrumah would have remained in power: if Ghana had not gone broke. The financial troubles, were not entirely his fault. Ghana derives more than 60 per cent of its export earnings from cocoa. and world cocoa prices worked in frustration under~ the old regime. L : Their proposals were largely ignored; jf adopted, they often were distorted to fit. the -pre- cepts of “Nkrumahism."’. Perhaps the most rankoing faspect to heavily-taxed Ghana- jans was Nkrumah’s often-ludi- crous prestige spending: MISSIONS EXPANDED Ghana's diplomatic missions were expanded without regard to cost; Ghana Airways lost barrels of money but recently invested in two costly new jet- liners; Nkrumah ordered a $28,- 000,000: complex of conference buildings built last year to en- tertain heads of state in the Organization of African Unity; Ghana's 1965 budget allocated $420,000 for statues of Nkrumah. -cent Tax Changes Announced For Sask.

The budget estimated reven- ues for *the fiscal .year ending March 31, 1967, at $268,800,000 compared with $221,000,000 dur- ing the current fiscal -year.
