Hon. J. D. Monteith Says Outlook
Bright at Present — $3,000,000
Debt . Paid — Liquor Revenue
Makes Up For Succession Duties
Chrinkage.
Toronto, July G_If Ontario's finan-
cial activities continue satisfactory
the treasurer will be able next
November to report a balanced bud-
get and a surplus, as forecast in his
budget speech last March, as well as
taking care of a payment of $3,000,-
000 in debt.
LIQUOR REVENUE .
The expected shrinkage of $5,000,-
000 in succession duties is taking
place, but will largely be overtaken
by the increased revenue to a full
year's operacion of the Liquor Con-
trol Act, This item was estimated by
the treasurer in his budget speech at
7,000,000, exclusive of about $750-
000 for permits and $300,000 front
the law enforcement branch.
With two-thirds of the fiscal year
gone by Hon. J. D. Monteith, provin-
cial treasurer Thursdayconsented to
give a general review of the financial
situation at this stage.
"According to forecast in the 1928
budget address," he recalled, "the
estimated revenues were $55,790,000.
Expenditure we put at $55,613,000.
Now that eight months of the fiscal
year have passed I am pleased to re-
port to the public of Ontario that our
financial activities thus far are being
Maintained fairly well, in keeping
with budget estimates. The revenues
are coming along in a normal way—
no unexpected windfalls and no ser -

ious disappointments. Just yesterday
the half yearly subsidy check of
$1,200,000 arrived at the treasury
from the Dominion government."
"The expenditures, of course, are
gauged according to revenues and
the various departntencs are consist,
ent in that respect: As announced
in the budget, there will be a $5,-
000,000 shrinkage in succession dut-
ies. This may be largely overtaken
by the increase due to a full year's
operation of the Liquor Control Act.
Otherwise, slight fluctuations are go-
ing on, but not in a way to affect the
general situation."
FINANCES HEALTHY,
'}Up to date there have been no

demanding attention. Although last
fiscal year showed a balance budget
With a surplus of $359,000 there is

BAD CRASH
AT BLUEVALE
A very had automobile crash took
place on Friday night, a short dis-
tance from 13luevtile. George Hodg-
kins and his son, George, jr., of (Kit-
chener, had driven up with Mrs. Wil-
liam Thompson, of Wingham, and it
was in the evening when they were
returning, they met a' truck approach-
ing' a culvert. Mr. Hodgkins saw
that he either had to hit the truck
or the culvert, and as the truck Was
crowding him off the road he chose
the latter, with the result that the
cur was overturned in the water and
the front axle and wheels torn from
the car. The impact was so great
that one of the connecting rods was
driven through the side of the block.
Fortunately no one was seriously
hurt.
WHEAT IN WEST

Winnipeg, Man., July 6—By
July 12 the wheat on the Cana-

headed out. Exchange firms
and millers have reports that
show the growing grain in bet-
ter condition than average for
the season, though more rain is
falling over the West, following
some excessive hot temperatur-
es.
While mot days and rainy
nights make for increased dan-
ger from rust, the same condi-

cut worm damage.
Already several Chicago firms

You would want Performance . , stamina to stand
