We favor the immediate downward revision of the existing high and in many cases prohibitive tariff duties, insisting that material reductions be speedily made upon the necessaries of life.
In this light, the downward revision in this year's operating budget deficit by approximately $3 billion doesn't seem like cause for celebration or self-congratulation.
The downward revision was expected to be approximately $3.0 million, or $0.05 per share, subject to the completion of an inquiry being conducted by the audit committee of the board of directors.
