Exigencies (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

needs

'exigencies' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for needs that I've seen before include "Requires, is in want of" , "Things that are wanted" , "Calls for" , "'..... must when the devil drives'" , "Misses" .)

I've seen this clue in The New York Times.
