WARNINGS TO RATE

THE COLONY'S BUDGET, INTRODUCED IN THE LEGISLATIVE COUNCIL THIS AFTERNOON, PROVIDES NEITHER FOR THE. REMISSION OF ANY EXISTING TAXATION NOR FOR THE IM- POSITION OF FRESH BURDENS. THERE IS, HOWEVER, A WARNING THAT IF RATES ARE NOT PAID MORE PROMPTLY, SOME INCREASE IN THE ASSESSMENT MAY BE NECESSITATED.

The Government is budgetting for a deficit of $1,890,452, whch is to be met from the Colony's surplus funds. For the purpose of sterling commitments, the dollar is to be calculated on a basis of 1s. 4d.

There are no new public works of any magnitude to be undertaken, but substantial sums are allotted in re- spect of the new Government Civil Hospital, the Central British School, the Shaukiwan road extension, harbour dredging, and the Trade School,

Works held over include the New Wanchai Market, the Mental Hospital, and the new Government quarters on May Road. A start will, it is hoped, be made with preparatory work on the Government House and City Development Scheme, but this project will be proceeded with cautiously.
