Revenue-expenditure budgets 431

Consequently lost year's investment of Rs. 10 lakhs was
o moot praiseworthy addition to the Reserve, This year,
provided oil shipments are maintained and provided there
is no interference with customs receipts ns the result of
the war, I should anticipate the Revenue to be close on
4 lakhs more than has been anticipated while Expenditure
may well be from Rs. 1 lakh to 3 lakhs less than the
Budget figures, It is conceivable therefore that there
may be Rs. 18 or 19 lakhs for investment this year and
this possibility will be borne in mind for discussion with

the Adviser later in the year.
I have the honour to be,
Sir
Your most obedient servant,

Political Agent, Bahrain.
