The report notes $275,949,377 in principal costs paid from revenue during the war, plus pensions and other disbursements totaling $438,293,248. Demobilization costs for the current year are projected at not less than $300 million with total expenditures around $620 million. Revenue should top $280 million, enough for ordinary needs, but likely require another loan to cover demobilization and capital expenditure. The previous year showed revenue exceeding ordinary expenditures by nearly $70 million, $48 million of which funded war expenses. the minister urged agricultural and industrial development under the motto Produce and Save.
