Comparing these increases with
ose recorded for the last three ear ,r
Pete fiscal years of the Liberal regime
It is found that there has been a very
tubstuntial reduction.
From April 1, 190S to March 31,
1911, the Liberal government increas-
ed the national debt by 302.0S1.I93.19,
Or an average yearly increase during
that period of 4' 11.093,7 30.13.
