in the military and aerial forces. The other causes of increased expend itme were
not such as to call for special comment.
165 The effect of these later adjustments upon the estimates of normal
receipts'and expenditure for the year 1932-33, was^to convert the original
anticipated surplus of £7,365 into a nominal deficit of £20,847. The accounts of
the year when published, however, showed that the habit of undci spending, or
over-estimating expenditure, already referred to was sufficient to wipe out the
deficit and substitute therefor a surplus of £104,893. The actual, as compared
with the modified estimates, were as follows

166. The remarkably close relationship between the estimated receipts and
actual receipts is to some extent fortuitous. The volume of imports was steadily
maintained throughout the year, and the receipts from customs import duties were
actually £105,046 in excess of the estimates. Most other sources of revenue
produced less than had been anticipated, and the shoitfall fiom them was
approximately equal to the customs surplus, ihe undei spending \\as spread ovei
practically all departments, the Ministry of Defence failing to digest £33,000 of
their extra allotment.
