The balance sheet of the Palestine administration for the year 1927-1928 will show a deficit of approximately £90,000, according to a report published by the Palestine Hebrew labor paper, “Davar.”
The deficit is due to the fact that the Palestine government is covering a part of the expenditure in Transjordania, otherwise the budget would show a surpius of £80,000, the paper states.
