Medical Department: Bedding and Glothing, $8,000.

Provision made in Estimates, $18,000.

When the Estimates for 1936 were prepared the cost of materials to be ordered through the Crown Agents was calculated on the basis. of an exchange rate of 1/8-$1. When the exchange fell it was con- sidered inadvisable to reduce the quantity ordered and so riak, a shortage of supplies. Figures now show that the number of patients treated during the current year has been well above the average. and all materials ordered have been fully required. The excess expen- diture consequent on the fall in exchange

amounts to $6,000
