AT TORONTO.
'Healthy condition o'f Ontario's fin-
ances was strikingly exemplified
through the medium of the budget
tabled in the Legisl'ature by Hon. Mr.
D.
Monteith, J. t Provincial Dune;,; Treasurer.
As a result of careful administration
and watchful economy the Provincial
Treasurer was able to present to the
House a budget showing a surplus of
$2280the 00 for
ff
scall
year
October 31, 1928, and tending
ct. an-
other surplus of about $798 000.00 for
the fiscal year of 1929,
'Ordinary revenue for the fiscal
year of 1928 wars $58,426,982,00 and
ordinary expenditure $58;198,74'6,00.
To create the surplus estimated. for
1929 the• treasurer will make an esti-
mated expenditure of $58,608,000, and
will receivead estimated revenue of
$58,426,982.
Increasing the gasotine tax from
three to :five cents a ,gallon --to follow
tip the principle that those who use
the roads should pay for them—will
net the government considerably more
money to carry on the extension of
-the highway system of the province,
It is estimated that the revenue to the
Highways Department for the fiscal
year of 1929 will reach $15,500,000, or
some $3;70.0,000 more than 'last year:
Features of the budget were the
payment of $1,300,000 into the treas-
ury by the T. & N.O. Railway; the
Hydro's payments of some $8,000,000
in interest; and $8,000,000 worth of
revenue from the sale Of liquors under
the Liquor Control Act. Surplus as-
sets of the province were some $33,-
000,000 higher than its liabilities.
System of debt retirement instituted
by the Conservative government has
not been neglected. As a result, some.
$3,000,000 was applied in this direc-
tion. ,This make's a total of $6,000,000
since the plan was placed in opera-
tion.
Announcing the fact that the Gov-
ernment was snaking every effort to
reduce the debt of the province, the
Provincial Treasurer stated that the
government had lived tip to its under-
taking ' in this connection, 'In addi-
tion both short and long term finan-
cing had been carried out in splendid
fashion, interest charges being kept
well within control,
interesting sidelight in the budget
was the report that during the fiscal
year 2,760,000 motor cars had entered
Ohtario to swell the tourist: populae
tion, It was estimated that these
tet nets, in addition to the 11,144,000
estimated to have entered by ether
means, expended $103,000,000 during
the year with greet benefit to all
classes pf the community.
.Duping the year the Department' of
Eduedtfon, under the direction pf
Prenner Ferguson, expended spine-'
thing aver $10,000,000. Chief items of
expenditure were grants to publte and
separate -schools as well as Provincial
Universities which amounted to more
than $7,000,000, lIn addition over
$1,0002000 was expended in advancing
technical ,education.
Ordinary expenditure last year in
the Department of Public Highways,
was'upward of $4,500,000. Outstand-
ing' items of expenditures were;
County roads, $1,190000; township
roads, $859,000; ,Provincial highways
$1,867,000, Revenue from the delpart-
went was substantial, being approxi-
mately $0;500,000 from the sale of
automobile licenses; $44600,000 from
the gasoline tax and $500,000- in re-
funds from counties and townships.
Presenting his budget Hon. Dr.
Monteith pointed out that loans to'
faniners.at the end of the •fiscal year
1928 amounted to $19,500,000. ,Since
the beginning of the service loans:,' to
bhe extent : of $27,090,000" have been
passed on, Number of loans passed
in 1928 was 1,567 as compared with
7,254 during the existence of •the'law.
In 1928 loans amounting to $5,670,000
were approved on property valued at
$113,000,000. '
Position of 'the Ontarid 'Hydro
Electric 'Commission is reported as
being ex'ce'ptionallly strong. Total in-
debtedness of the Coniinission is
placed rat $200,000,000. Of this amount
the'•lComnalasion is ind'eb'ted directly
to the province on bond issues, In
ad•dibion to paying $8,000,000 to the
government on interest the Commis-
sion 'hes a reserve of $35,000,000 •
(During•a period of years; there - has
been a'reduction of $3,000,000 in taxes
which represents, practically, one per
cent, on the capital indebtedness of
the province,
Gross debt of the Province at the
end- of the. fiscal year is $393,747,000.
After deducting asseis
of aniincome-
producing nature the net debt is rated
at $173,793,000.
ISupple'menitary estimates for the
fiscal year ending !October 31, 1929,
tabled in the 'Legislature during ,the
week amount to '$15,071,001. O'fthis
amount $10;337,175 is estimated as the
expenditure of the Prime Minister's
Depatitmenit. , This vote takes in the
estimates of the ;Ontario Hydro Elec
tric 'Ccmnriss:ion for the period. Some.
of the other votes requested of the',
House are 'Educa'ti'on department, $1,-
296,752; Ptubeie Works, $1,934,747, and
$157,010 for the 'Department .of Agri-
culture.
Estimates of the Ontario Hydro El-
ectric.,Commission provide for the ex-
penditure of $2,700,000 for the
pur-
pose.
of securing .an adequate supply
'
of power for Nprthern 'Ontario. O tatio.
P The
vote is to care for the expenditure
made necessary in the taking over of
the 'Wahnapitae ;Power ,Company and
for the extension of the service now
given by this company. 'It is the in-
tention taf the government to link np
s'elveral power companies in the pub'1'fc
ownership system in order that the
settlers of the north may have the
same advantages as the more densely
settled sections of the Province.
Estimates expenditure in connection
with the Niagara System of the 'Com-
mision is placed at $5,566,407 for the
year ending 1929, This expenditure
is necessary as the result of the •con-
stanlily increasing demand for power.
Some $300,000 will 'be expended on
the Georgian ,Bay system; $518,950 on

over eight'per cent in dividends and its
subsceibers today have the lowest rates
in the world for comparable service.
The Bell Telephone Company is owned by 15,300

one quarter of one per cent of the total shares.
