Note:
In the year 1934, the first of October was adopted as the beginning of the fiscal year instead of the first of April. This change led to the closing of the accounts
of this year, which began in April 934, at the end of September 934, so that they could be opened on the first of October. Thus, the year 1934 appears in the
attached statistics table in the form of a half-year only.
