In the Budget Estimates of Receipts for the year 1916 

 Interest on Investment is expected to be higher owing to the 

 purchase of Rs. 10,100, 4% Terminable Loan of 1915-16; Rent 

 of Room is expected to be higher owing to the fact that the 

 rent due from the Automobile Association of Bengal has fallen 

 into arrears since May, 1915; and Admission fees are expected 

 to be higher on account of members having not paid their 

 fees who were elected during November, 1915.

 under several heads. Salaries have been increased owing to 

 increment allowed to the office staff and for the appointment 

 of a new Mali on a higher pay. The estimated cost of books has 

 been heavily increased on account of an invoice for £123-2-8 

 received from Mr. Bernard Quaritch, London, for books sup- 

 plied to the Society, and of the balance of Rs. 865 to be paid to 

 Messrs. Johnston and Hoffmann, being the cost of nine Albums
