(Continued from Pare 7):

solution of this Council subject to the approval of the Secretary of State.

Honourable Members are aware of all the facts as these have been explained not only in the budget debates of 1833 and 1934 but also when the Ordinance was intro- duced in September last.

The first resolution deals with expenditure during 1933. This was originally charged to a special head in the Estimates before the Fund

authorised, WM9

Council having approved of & Supple. mentary Vote of 831,188 In Decem- ber, 1933, (see Finance. Message No. 12 Item 128).

The Second Creas Harbour Pipe la now estimated to cost: $250,000 as (From Our Special. Correspondent) against" an original estimate of $375,000. The estimate for the Gorge Dam of #9,200,000 can be reduced to 89,000,000, Ultimately it is hoped further reductions will be possible but in the absence of the Resident Engineer it is not considered prudent at this stage to make any further alterations. The total estimate of $10,382,000. can be reduced by $928,469 to #10,043,531,

Item No. 3-Vehicular Ferry The revised estimate amounts to $1,930,000 an increase of $30,000 to cover the cost of caissons at the

Item No. 7-Redemption of 34 per cent. Inscribed Stock The amount required amounted to $3,80-1,943 a difference of $464,943 over the amount inserted in the original Schedule.

When these estimates were prepared in Sep- tember last the revised figure for 1934 was given as $30,000 but owing to the contract for the Approach Road having been "awarded late in the year
