that tiiu aggregate expenses
wonld not exceed ^ J4 0,000,(HK),
and that, the total receipts for
the year would be at least fcj«0-

they will aggregate at least $23,:

how.certain that the excess of
receipts over expenditures for
tlie ludt fiscal year will be at
least $15,000,000 and may reach
$17,000,000. Ia-the fiscal year
