EDITORIAL NOTES. Women are invading all circles hitherto re- garded as essentially men's close preserves. The House of Commons has had to succumb to the blandishments of Lady Astor, the ga lery has yielded to a lady reporter, and the classic shades of the Welsh University Court haa been invaded for the first timd in hiatory by Lady Verney, aa junor deputy chancellor. It appears to be only a matter of timo until the advent of a lady principal 01 the con- stituent colleges. It Conversation with responsible leaders of public opinion in Nortih Wales tends to con- firm the impression of the wisdom shown by the College authorities in the selection of Mr. J. H. Davies, M.A., as principal. Tho new Principal has impressed all who have cOOle into contact with him with a sense of reserve power and as a safe and sagacious guide of the insta tuiiioit so intimately connected with the public life of North Wales. One of the educational leaders of Merioneth expressed himse f thus to our representative:—"It is an ideal appointment calculated to maintain the high traditions of the College." It is important thaA the North Wales Stats trade should be thoroughly aware of th. danger facing the industry owing to the tw- t.oducfcion of new roofing materials. 01108 such materia!, whioh it ia* claimed is Tery effective, is that introduced by Major Waller. of Messrs. Hill Richards Co. This is a roncrets slab made in large sections which lifts straight into place, and it can be painted a ridh dark brown imitation of tiles or any colour whioh may be doair^d. Thia product is described in the Ministry of Health's pub- bcation "Housing" and the writer adds:— "Noodl(F-8 to say there are no slaiee or to blow off, no roof timbeie to rot, and no possibility of leakage. » < The proposal to confer the gift of autonorryr for Waes continues to exoto mixed feelings in the country. The sense of dread of Cardiff and Glamorgan's predominence was pretly apparent in the proceedings of Merioneth County Council last w.eek. Dr. John Jones's declaration that rural Wales preferred to be ruled from London to Citrdiff struck a respon- sive chord in the Council who cheered the statiement with unanimity. Tt is qu to possible that, an Ulster policy will emerge in Wales as well as in Ireland but it is to be hoped that Waies will eschew the courses of brag, bluster, braggadocio, and gun running and treason which has discredited tho cause of the. nauion over the water. Wales 's not likely to succumb to Carsonitis. A very useful pubUcation by the Ministry of Health at a penny sets forth the names of nine firms who are ready to build houses by new methods which have had tho approval of the Ministry. The schemes of Mr Llew- elyn Dffr.t, of Kcmt, is of reinforced ooncrete and he is prepared to erect two houses at a cost of B350 each on a site selected by the Ministry and to tender after this for construc- tion of the houses in large quantities. Eaeb house is to have a living room, a scullery, a. bath, and three bedrooms, and the Ministry Is prepared to land mociey spread owr 30 years to cover the cost. It would appear that this scheme of Mr Dent's whose address « Ruxlay, North Cray, Kent, a valuable solution to a very difficult pi-oblem and pro- gressive local authorities would well advised to make themselves thoroughly acquainted with his proposals. The detailed report submitted by Dr. E. Lewys Lloyd, county medical officer to the Merioneth County Council, will amply repay more than a cursory examination. It is a document full of suggestions for all concerned in public health and social reform. Dr. John Jones, as chairman of the Public Health Com- mittee, paid the Medical Officer of Health a generous tribute on his success in locating and stamping out an outbreak of typhoid at Towyn, an outbreak whose source was most obscure and baffling, and was only satisfactorily cleared up after prolonged and minuto investigation, such as only an officer wholly devoted to his profession would undertake. Whether tha Medical Officer is adequately paid for his ser- vice) or not, was a moot point a* the Coun- cil meeting, but there was and can be no differ- ence, of opinion as to the practical value of these services to the community that he serves eo efficiency and unobtrusively. ». • Mr. James A. Duncan, secretary, Seattle* Central Labour Council, says from the la- bour atajidpolrt'.t, rc,1.a.rdlesli of tAio taken by the Federation, Prohib tion has proved its value in many ways. It has changed. t,l1e app«aranoai of the workers generally. Men who do rough work used to be c .intent walk tho streets ill overalls. Only a short time after Prohibition camo in Washing-ten, the working-man on the street couIcl hardly be dv t'nguished from tho banker and business man. The money the worker formerly spent for drink now goes for better h met;, moro and hetter clothes, and better food. The worker, under Prohibtticn, dis- plays more aativ«t|v and interest. In civio affairs. Where, in sw-h States ss Waahmg- the vot'r ilias the init.ativo aud refer, endum, it is vrtal tha.t those who enjoy the fircjichise and the p,wor to mute, .1" ho initiative, laws which shall govern the Strt<o, should be clear-headed, and free from the influence of liquor and the liqour business. 'W' One of the most significant features of the recent debate on premium bonds was tho emphasis laid by tho Chancellor of tho Ex- chequer and by Mr. Bonar Law upon what had been accomp1ishp,d by the National Savin Movement in the devc opmenti of thrift in this country. Tho Savings Organisation estab- lishod under the stress of war achieved results so unexpected and so n-emarkable tha.t tha movement has been placed upon a permanent basis for peace. To its paati and present work the Chancellor paid the fo'lowing very hnndsome tribute :—" I cannot soenk ns chan- cellor of the exchequer with sufficient appre- ciation and gratitude of the work done by thn voluntary organisations for war savings throughout the length and breadth of the- country. They have succeeded—the figures are shown in a letter to the "(Times"—v.n inducing- enormous numbers of people to invest who never saved before and 1!hey are inducing them to continue." The propaganda of this move- ment has had a marked effeefc on the develop- ment of all savings organisations in the land. Hoders of State securities have increased from 343,000 before the war to between seven- teen and twenty million, and it s estimated that the total investment of small ho'ders in all fo-ms of funds and securities is now well lover £700.000,000.

R. it. Nancarrow. the Company's Manager reports that the minc50 are situated in one of tbo riches Lead and Zinc districts in Wale. tbe Sett beina adjacnt to properties whicb were worked until the yein 1893 with a resultant sale of mineral to the value of orer £ 2.000.000, The Gwaithgoch Mine actually adjoins the once famous Grotrwinion Mine, which yielded ores to the value of over a Quarter or a million sterlong and is traversed by lodes which proved ..0 productive in that mine. An analysis by Mes¡¡r. f". Claudet. Ltd.. of London, shows that zinc ore-blende-produced from.th Gwaith- och Lode-oyer 42 inches wide-in the Western Winxe is of exedlent quality, as a bulkmDle gave 59.76 per cent. zinc, 1.16 per cent. lead. and- 12.<ozs. of silver to the ton-2.2.10 Ibs.-Both the Prfsfcy-hirian and Cell mines. which will also be acquired, given every promise of being highly productive. As to 1 :— The Dumps were fonnedaoout the middle «of: the last Century, from the working ot tbe Frongoch Min. and arc. estimated by Mr. R. R, Naucarrow, "t 150.0041 tons and to contéJin 5 per cent, of Zinc Ore-Blendcoí which. Awfag to the greatly improved procs of ore dressing by mean of an Oil Separation Plant fer treatment oi the "Slimes." it is anticivated that an 85 per cent. recovery will be obtained. The workinll of the Dumps sh()uldtberefore produce 6.375 tons of Blende Concentrates, in-erasing 50 per cent. Zinc. In addition to tbe Blende, it Itas been ascertained from nast records of the Dumps. that for evcrv tén tons of Blende Concentrates, one ton of Lead Ore should be recovered, equal to a totalöf 637 tons. With Speltar-the vreduct oi Blende- at £ 45 per ton-pres.nt price i £ 48— mende 50 per cent. zinc-should be worth £ 12 pel" ton. at which fiur the yield for the 6.375 tons of Blende Con- centrates would be £ 76,500 0 0 Add 637 tons of Lead Ore at say £ 20 per ton. based on thc price of £ 30 for Pig Lead-pre1lent price is £ 38—equals 12.740 0 0 89.240 0 0 DeductinR working cosh and adminis- tratton charges estimated at £ 6 2s. 6d. per ton J 39,047 0 0 Leaving an estimated net profit of £ 50/193 0 0 As will- be seen. Mr. Thomas in his report accompanying the Prospectus estimates the profits from the Dumps at between £ 40,000 and £ 50.000. Bearinlf in mind tile growing demand for all metals for recODstrnction purposes throughout the areas devastated by tbe war a^id tlu: great increas in building generally, hiher prices nlay con. ridentlv lw looked ror. hut enn uader less favourable conditions, the margin of profit should be considerable. # Work will be proceeded with as quickly aspossiblcand it is anticipated that profits from the Dumps will accrue withi" twelve months from the commencnent of operations, Inasmuch as the Dumps are at S4r{pce. thilli part of the proposition is more of a business undertaking than a mining venture. It is intended that.the develop- ment of Ihe mining area should proceed concurrently with tbe treatment of the Dumps, Tbe whole of the above property is subct to two Mortgalles for £ 14.000 and £ 2.500—of which latter amount only £ 2.157 has been advanced—in favour of tbe Minister of Munitions in respect of monies provided by the Ministry during the War with the object ,of nabling the Fronlloch Dumps to be treated. The muney >10 advnnced "a" ben exuendsd in constructing a Dam across the River Ystwyth and towards providing Ore Dressing Machinery. Aerial Ropeway, Water leat. Hydraulic Power Station. &c. Upon the signing of the Armistice. th. Miniiitry of Munitions ceased to finance work in conaection with rhe Dumps. but the Dam is completed, the Buildings and the Ropwa. n arly so and all Qccessary Plant and Machiner is either on the Sfot, or ready for ady delivery upon payment cf n balance of £ 2.227 ill" 0d„ which this Company will provide.

The Company willredeelll the Mortgages, and thus acquire fcx £ 6,000 the benefit of the befoc:e.mentiOIlr-d expenditure Ø'f:{1f.eaJ. Th-e purchase consideration is extremely moderate, bearing in mind the amount of money already cxpdkided and the work done. In the opinion of the Directors, the prospects of pro- ducers <J lead and Zinc Ores in Wales ar6 ekcitptionally bright, In view of the work of reconstruction necessi- tated by the expansion of industry generally, the demand [or Lead and Zinc i expected to be very great br years' to coine. and it i* anticipated that the presot prices will not on1y he maintained but advanced. Never in the history of Welsh Lead and Zinc Ore Mining has there been a period so promising to the Mine Owner and offering such an op()(1rtunity of participating in the comio prosperity of thi* industry.

Carnarvon has antiquity in it iavour;. it flatters itseli tnat it is to have the support oi the Premier. Bangjr, having oecomc a seat of learning, considers that its claims are equally as good as Carnar- von. From the South, Cardiff, like the great centre it undoubtedly is, points to its population, its Cathays site awaiting this building which will complete a noble scheme, and quietly smiling, demands with gen lie -i Ut, VI y lure, tui i<.iMsiei.ce liu- nowhere else in Wales can the Parlia- ment be located. North and South differed over the National Library— and Aberystwyth secured it. North and South will again disagree as to ihe new Parliament, and why should not Aberystwyth become the accepteu suitor. Carnarvon and Bangor ,are permeated with the spirit of the North, just as Carmarthen and Swan- sea are unable to view anything sanely which does not put the South in the forefront. Cardiff is so cosmopolitan that it is unable to thtak of Wales a wart from her coal and her shipping. Where, then, stands Aberystwyth? Her College is attended by men and women from North and South—a large number being from England. Her townspeople are of the Welsh, Welsh but they are from the North as well as from the South. As Dr. Flcurc said in a recent lecture, Aberystwvth lies on the main highway from North and South, and for this reason she cannot become narrow -indi s,h;c cannot lean unduly to either section of her popula- tion. Aberystwyth is accessible from Carnarvon and Bangor, equally as from Newport, Cardiff, or Pembroke, and its railway service is good from XTi-tv t;:IJ> h E It", v1; np satisfactory reason why the new Houses of Parliament should be put m the centre of a bis*" population there is cvcrv reason why it should be located in the most healthv snot in Wales. It is unnecessary to indulge in cheap jibes at cither Cardiff or Carnarvon. The sane judge cannot shut his eyes to' the claims of either, but neither can he be blind to the fact that both have their drawbacks and that either taken as the accepted location must leave the other full of jealousy and seething with re- volt at what is considered a snub. It is true that Aberystwyth, as yet, has not got a site to offer, but there arc numerous sites suitable, and there are not a few landowners who would wil- lingly give the land required. If it were possible for the first Parliament to have a site at Aberystwyth on offer, the Queen of the Seas would be in a position which would compare favour- ably with Cardiff, for Cardiff has already paid Lord Bute a very high figure for the site it proposes to give. Mr. Manse! Franklen may be right in suggestmg that this is a matter which should be left to the new Parliament to decide on the other hand he may be wrong. It would in the long run be better for so thorny a question tc be settled as soon as possible, but it is difficult to see how this can be don, until the Welsh Parliament meets— unless the inept so-called Welsh Party chooses to try its hand—and every friend of the Principality sincerely hopes that that band of inefiicients will leave things alone. Once the new body meets the honours of representation will be fairly divided, and this will make the decision all ,the more difficult. There is a clear solution—satisfactory to North and South, acceptable to the industrial as well as to the rural areas, and that is to build the new Parliament House at a place which can be easily reached, and where the people of Wales can meet for important national gatherings. Aberystwyth is such a place, and it owes to its new civic head a debt of gratitude for bringing for- ward the matter at the present juncture.
