OVERALL BUDGETARY 0121-7011 REPORTED OF $2, s_59, 000,0

By FRANK FLAHERTY OTTAWA. ‘June 26 -— (C?) ——

For the fourth full fiscal year ofi

war Finance Minister Ilsley to- night reported an over-all bud- getary deficit of 82569000000.

In his budget speech reporting on the year 1043-44 which ended March 3il last, Mr. Ilsley disclos- ed Canadian Governmental paying and receiving had touched an- other new high in dollar figures. continuing the climb begun with the outbreak of war.

Total revenues were 32.855.701.-

000 against 02.319.400.000 the pre-.

vious year and the total expen- ditures, $5,300,122.00 against $4,- 387,124,000.

The figures are not final as books have not been closed. but they represent a close estimate of the actual year's financing.

The Dominlons total cash re- qulrements for the year amounted to 85.841.000.000. greater than the total expenditures, because of ad- vances on war purchases, payment of indebtedne abroad, purchase of securities. foreign exchange and other assets.

Mr. Ilsley said the total revenues include 155,000,000 in the refund- able por ions of the income and excess profits taxes which go to add to the debt. After taking ac- count of these he arrives at the year's cash deficiency of $2.086,- 000.000.

“It is this cash deficiency. not the budgetary

of our bor-

es the

rowing requirements and it is of- ten much the larger amount." said Mr. lisiey.

"In the past year the cash de- ficiency was onl

double the budgetary ‘d to ntinued on page B.

A first-class showdown with the Jops is cooking in the sultry Jungle: of northern Burma. military observers believe.

Mapping Up In Cherbourg Is Coriiinued

By DON WHITEHEAD

WITH AMERICAN TROOPS IN CHERBOURG. 9.11 P.M., June 26 — (AP) —Fanaiic defenders of Cherbourg made a last desperate effort today to hold out against Am- erican troops closing in to wipe out the last pockets of resistance.

Tonight a few pillboxes and snipers were holding out in this smoke-baud city and there was much resistance astir in the arsenal area but they were making a futile stand and complete control of the city is only a matter of hours.

But the Germans who retreated to Cap De La Hauge were directing harassing artillery fire into the city in an attempt to slow up occupation.

Officers stood there eyeing their watches and right on the second fire orders were shouted and artil- lery regiments for miles alonlz the front crashed in unison There were guns in every clump of bush- es. in every wood and in every wneat field around us There was such a din you could not hear the man next, w you when he shouted.

Canadian gunners with their cars plugged with cotton worked their guns furiously and dug into great stacks of ammunition by their gun positions.
