PlSSi|] lppropriation For Domestic Ex- penditure and for Piur Pur- poses . and includes items Previously Passed (From Our Own Correspondent.) OTTAWA. April 7.-An interim sup- ply bill appropriating $99,458,597.-ll. for the public service in the financial year ending March 31, 1917, was in-_ troducod ill thc Commons by Sir. .Robert Borden to-night, put through all its stages and passed. lt goe/» to the Senate and will receive the Royal assent next wack. _ Tho sum thus granted is nmdc up of all the amounts which have been votcd in Connniilcc oi’ Supply so fur this session, of one-fifth of the unvoted balance of the estimates alld one-fifth of the war appropriation proposed by the Government. As the Prime Minis- ter explained the total includes $28,'l13,tl0ll.40. which have already been passed in committee, $20,749,931 being one-fifth ci‘.ali the remaining items of tho estimates for the domes- tic oxpenditure of the country, _and $50,000,000, for war purposes during the year. The reason for the passage of an interim supply bill is to be found in the fact tilat the fiscal year 1916-17 is now a week old and that appropria- tions ior the public service and to ,meet expenses arising out of Canadafs participation in the war have been technically exhausted. .Sir Thomas White‘s bill to levy a -tax on business profits was put through committee and some minor- smendments were inserted in it. it nluw stands for the third readia%e The discussion of estimated for the part- ment of Indian Affdirs occupied the balance of the day's sitting. ‘ - '.- el n this orders cents ONE 01' *“i“°“i,i.‘i*,';{!',i.,,,,,uR. ll. c. ucNEvlN x.. - . . -_ . .
