mated a surplus of 4109900 pounds but he finds himself faced instead with a deficit of nearly 37000000 pounds Year before last there was a deficit of more than 14900000 pounds Thus in the two years of his chancellor ship the country has fallen behind more than 50000000 (about $250000-000) Ninetccn-tvveuty six was un abnormal year owing to the general coal strike with the crushing blows they dealt

increased considerably the higher charge for interest on the national debt alone having absorbed 14000 (XX) pounds more than expected The public although warned for some time of a possible deficit of about 204)00000 pounds was staggered to learn when the figures were made public last night that it was nearly double that amount The man in the street was ruefully speculating to-day on what new
