SATURDAY, FEB- l_ . ..~|--Iu..-n‘ More Money For Apologies The (Iaiiadian public, says the Globe and .\lail, is reconciled to Budget figures of astronomical size, but it will view tritli a somewhat jaundiced eye the increase of about 54/.» million (lollars, bringing the total tip to $701,300,009, in the noti-tvar estimates. The estimates for the war expenditures have been stibstaiititilly- pared down, the reduction lining roughly 331 million dollars, but if there had been an increase ltere, there would have been little disposition to cavil at it.
