Excerpt from Financial Statement of the Hon. William H. Price, Treasurer of the Province of Ontario: Delivered in the Legislative Assembly of Ontario on the 19th February, 1924, on Moving the House Into Committee of SupplyI do not think I could part from that subject without saying this: that we have had eight months and a half of the previous Administration, three months and a half of the present Administration. We are operating to-day on the estimates passed by the old Administration over a year ago, or at least we were in the past fiscal year - and I am talking now always of the fiscal year ending the Slst of October, 1923. So that in taking up Public Accounts and various financial arrangements this House will see that this Govern ment must perforce re¿ect in the Public Accounts something that was fairly well fixed in previous sessions of the House.When it comes, however, to getting out the Public Accounts next year, we propose to cut them down to a considerable extent. There are about pages in the Public Accounts to-day. That is too much, it is too bulky. There is no reason why little items like, say, Washers, cannot be eliminated. We can cut down perhaps two or three hundred pages without any damage, and I think we can cut them more than that, and we hope next year to carry out improve ments along that line.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
