Commons this afternoon voted an
other credit of 2 SO, 000, 000, mak
ing:, wlih previous sums, a total of
82. 000, 000 already allowed for
war purposes.
Premier Asquith Informed the
members of the House of Commons
today that the expenditures in the
next three months would be not less
than 115,000.000 daily.
Obligations Increase.
In introducing the measisre. Premier
Asquith remarked that from April 1 U
June It, th expenditure hsd been at
the rale of aM.(W.09i dslly. He estimated
that the total daily xpendtture during
the currency of the new credit would fc
not leas tha A3.0oa.000. for th reason
that a fVe war extended It area. Oreat
Britain' financial obligation to the al
lien would Increase.
In a general survey of the sltustlon
th premier referred to th reconstruc
tion of the government. He declared h
would not have been Justified in taking
the course he did In this regard under
the pressure of outside influence, or be
cause, of temporary embarraasmtnt. The
task was a unwelcome a could fall to
the lot of any man. , ' ' '

After paying a tribute to. his late col
leagues. Mr. Asquith claimed IkiUT for
himself and W ynew colleagues th

the other, could not b measured by any
pronedent. - But our national pal Icy re
mains unchanged to pursue thi frar at

Mr. Asquith said he had decided slowly
and reluctantly, hut In tha end without
