Expenditures of the Russo-Japanese war / by Gotaro Ogawa.

EFFECTS ON PUBLIC FINANCE I33 the extraordinary expenses diminished gradually to 870,000 yen, the total of the two items ranging from 9,580,000 yen to 3,670,000 yen. But during the war, the ordinary expenses rose to figures from 5,070,000 yen to 7,770,000 yen, and the extraordinary expenses increased to amounts ranging from I,86o~ooo yen to 3,480,000 yen, the two items totaling from 6,930,000 yen to I1I,260,000 yen. After the war, however, the second extension program of the iron foundry was executed, which greatly swelled its expenditures compared with the pre-war period, instead of bringing down the figures to the former level. The expenditures for various government industries above noticed increased in amount as the positive effect of the war. The expenditures for government railways, on the contrary, showed a very large decline as the negative effect of the war, though the speedy construction of such lines as were necessary for war-time communications required a certain amount of f resh outlay.
