GREEK FINANCIAL POSITIOS,

M. Negropontis, the Minister cf Finance, in a speech in the Greek Chamber recently on the financial situation, said the sur- plus for 1918, which was expect- ed to amount to 237,000,000 drachmas (£9,115,000) would only reach 163,000,000 owing to i the increase in the salaries of members of the Civil Service The Public Debt of Greece, M.* Negropontis continued, DOW amounted to 1,500,000,000 drachmas. The mobilisation had entailed an expenditure of 500,000,000 drachmas, and the war 500,000,000 drachmas more. In spite of this, however, the deficit for 1919 would only amount to 100,000,000 drach- mas, which would be covered by the yield of the new fiscal mea- sures which had been submitted to the Chamber's approval.
