REPORT OF THE COUNCIL, 1932-33 Xxi 
taken by Sir Alfred Ewing during the year of his presidency of the 
Association. 
The following financial statement shows income on account of Down 
House, and current expenditure, for the financial year ending March 31, 
1933; compared with that for the year ending June 30, 1932. ‘The overlap 
between the two years is accounted for by the recent change of dates for 
the Association’s financial year. 
The figure for income from the Endowment Fund during the past year 
is in a measure deceptive as certain dividends have been paid gross, which 
previously were paid less tax to be subsequently reclaimed ;_ so that this 
year includes both a gross payment and a refund on the preceding year. 
The gross. amount of interest and dividends for a full year is £994 10s.
