H_- MEDICAL OFFICER DIFFICULTY Breconshire County Council's Decision. Appointment made on Terms that may be Altered. There was a very full attendance ut a special meeting of i be Breconshire County ConncH at Brecon on Friday, when The princip.il business on the agenda was the appointment of a medical officer cf health and school medical officer in succession to Dr. Bridge resigned. There were present Lord Glarusk (chairman), Arcfcdeaccn Bevan, the Hen. R. C. Cevereux, Colonel R. D. Garnons WiiJiams, Major the Hon. W. Bailey, Major J. J Watkms. Captain Partridge, the Revs John Davies, B. J Church Jones, D. A. Griffith. Rees Evans. W. Llewelyn, H. J. Evans, and Professor Joseph Jones, Messrs J. E Moore Gwyn, C. H. deWinton, C. W. WocsnaDQ. A. Beckwitb, A. A. Mitchell, E. F. Ccckcroft, David Powell, D. T. Jeffreys, Morgan \V Morgan, W. T. Isaac, Morgan Morgan, Owen Price, W. J. T'ng, A Gwynne Vao.aban, W. B. E w:- rds, David Williams.

Ernest Jones, Idris Davies, W. H. O. Thomas, S. Morgan, Joseph Price, T. Williams, James Poweli. H. M. Lloyd, B Davies and J. T. Boucher. The Housing and Town Planning Committee submitted a short list of applicants, but strongly recommended revision of the terms of appoio tImo t, in view of the Board of Educa- tion's requirement of a salary and travelling expenses instead of a salary including travelling expenses to qualify for their grant for school medical insptciion and of the doubt whether the Local Government Bosrd would sanction an appointment at an inclusive salary. The re pert also suggested there was every indication that the time was approaching when an exten- sion of the school medical service nruid be compulsory. The appointment was advertised at £ 500 per annum iuclust\e of travelling expenses. Mr Cockcreft moved and M5- Woosuaml seconded the adoption of the report. The Chairman thought the Council ought to consider the question of ihe salary ttnd travel- ling expenses. A WAY OUT. Mr Beckwith said he wished to 21re everv weight to the ccraaiunication frocs the Board of EducaTion, but such recommendations should be taken vntb great- care and w.. rushed into, as they were sometimes subject to variation J, depending on the point cf view of the gentle man who happened to be the head of a particular department. There was a great deal to be said on both i-iots of the quest!t-n ss to di"id:u_; the salary into so much for services and so much for travelling expenses. They could put a premium on either, but in the case of a first-class man it would not make the leas: difference in the world whether the salary was divided-be would do the work. (Hear, hear.) He should not be a bit surprised it officially it was found later on that the division of the salary into £ 150 for travelling and 1350 for services was not the best way of dealing with the matter. They must meet the Beard of Education letter and he would propose that they proceed to make the appointment on rbe terms advertised, bat make it perfecrh e'ear to- the applicants that the salary of 1:500 vas subject to a revision of terms when the final scheme for school inspec- tiúil and after cap of children was agreed upon. The commute* reported that it was advisable that the framing of any scheme sho-ild not be settled without the advice and assistance of the officer who v oold be responsible for its work- ing. That knocked out another proposal they made that a locum tenens Fhc,u!d be appointed, because they wanted their permanent officer there as earit: --is possible to help frame he scheme and get it into working order. An immediate appointment would also obviate the recessiiv of expenditure oo fitrth; r advertise- ments. etc. Major WaikifiS seconded the anicnom.Ji:i, ai-'ct later ou Mi B ok with (on tbe appeal dH Miiler) consented to add words to provide tbtt no aiteraticn cf the terms hereafter should be to the ('•ad-oiit-.ge of the medical officer, 1Ir Errtesi Jones said Le should objcci to the travelling cxr^nses being fixed at £ 150 and the salary at £ 350 If the otfeer was tied down Lo the sum of expenses he was to spend ail sorts of abuses could arif-e. (A chords of "hear, hears," sr. OK- of which seemed to be ironical;. They had scales of travelling expenses for other officials why with a very important officer on different lines ? If other officials were entitled to travelling expenses surely one whose duties depended for their efficiency upon the amount of the travelling he did should be en- titled to nave his fxpenseS- Mr Woosnam said it was only just to the geat'emen bad come to be interviewed that they should not put them in a svor.-e position than the advertisement -suggested. He agreed wiih what Mr Jones said, and he also thought they must try and conform itS far as they could with the c-ber suggestions contained in (he letter from the Board of Education, iNt rJeffi-eyi raised the point of order that the terms could not be varied whilst the resolution fixing the salary at X500 inclusive was on the books To get over this difficulty Mr Taylor moved th.s suspension of the Standing Orders (one of which requires a term of six months to elapse before a resolution can be rescinded) and Mr Ernest Jones seconded. The Chairman supported a plea by Mr Cock- croft that this was a matter of urgency justify n ing the suspension of the Standing Orders aud the suspension was agreed to without further question. r G\vynrle V>]gI,UI supported Mr Beckwith:s amendment. Before they altered the terms of the salary they should have a com- plete scheme of school medical service before them, and then they would be in a position to say what it would be fair and proper to give the Medical Officer. They ought to appoint that day because it was necessary to have an officer to assist in framing the scheme. He knovr tbai a full scheme would be a great ex- pense to the county, but they would have to do it. A NEW IDEA. Col Gurnons Williams said ii was of great importance to separate the salary from the travelling expenses, otherwise they would not receive a good grant. He thought the only solution of the difficulty was that the County Council should purchase a motor car and run it for themselves. (Hear, hear). It would save them money in the long run and be more satis- factory. To get satisfactory work they must cover the travelling expenses Mr Beckwith thought It might help to easo the rctuds of or e or two mem' ets who had spoken to say that his amendment involved the idea of altering the term3, of dividing the foOO into so much for travelling and so much for salary when the time was ripe for doing so. The nature of the division would verv much depend upon the details of the final scheme. He was afraid they wouM tme to appoint an assistant officer, and if they did that it would aitcr the travelling radius of the principal Medical Officer, a question they could cot decide that day. l'be Cbairman was surprised that nobody had suggested what seemed to him to be the right v.ay out of tiie difficulty, that they should begin again and issue fresh advertisements. He was led t,; believe that there were medical officers who would have applied or the post if the terms bad not been such as they were. Coi. Garnons Williams said that was the pro- posal of the committee, who also suggested the appointment of a locum tenens. The Chairman The committee are not quite cohfeisrent, then they bring us six gentlemen here for the appointment. Mr Coekcrof c: We did thai because yon told us to do so. The Clerk (Mr H- F. W. Harries) said the applicants had been advised that ifwas possible no appointment would be made that day. Archdeacon Bevau said the idea cf dividing the £ o00 into £150 for travelling expenses and £350 for salary was cpen to every objection that applted to the present position of paying 1500 ats an inclusive salary, and be did not think the Board of Education would look less favour- ably on it. The only method they would approve of would be the payment of a fixed salary and travelling expenses in addition, what. eve; they might be. If they did not change the terms they would get nothing worth having from the bo?.rd by w;ty oi grunt towards medical inspection. So far they bad not bad a penny in relief of their expenditure on inspec- oon. The Beard now offered a groit up to 50 per cent, on their expenditure, including the Medical Officer's salary—(Mr Beckwith Not for county purposes). No, but up to 50 per ceat. of the whole of their expenditure on in- spection and treatment. He thought tbey woold get nothing towards wbat they paid the Medical Officer for bi- school work if they per- si^ed in app.nn-ing on the terms they advertised or those suggested by Mr Beckwith, a fixed sum for travelling expenses. With regard to the full scheme or. inspection and treatment, the hub committee appointed by the Education Authority would meet ifl a few days and would try to formulate a comprehensive scheme that would in their getting back possibly 50 per cent, oi their xywoditnre. The money they bad been spending in this matter had been largely wasted because there to "following up" of the medical inspection. If they bad advertised on other terms they might have had a much larger number of applicants, and perhaps some even more efficient than those wtio bad applied, Mr Jas Morgan had been told that the British Medical Association would not consent to any of their members applving under a salary of £ 400 clear, and he thought their -idvertisement did not appear h aH the papers. Eventually Mr Beckwith's amendment was carried by a very large majority. The Clerk reported that one of the six selected candidates, Dr. S A. Henry, of Rochdale, had withntawr. his application, and the other five were in attendance. He was requested to ex- plain to the oo the nature of the resolution adopted, ani returned with the information that they ail agreed, to it. The Council then interviewed Dr. A. Brown lee, of Cardiff, Dr. A. E. Evans, of Prestatyn, Dr. G. Jubb, of Chester, Dr. J. G. Owen, of Islington,. London, and Dr. Edward Colston Williams, of 46, Torringtou Square, London. A first vote was afterwards taken to bring the list down to two names, and Drs. Williams and Owen were left in. On a final show of hands Dr. Williams received 31 votes to 23 given for Dr. Owen. Dr. Williams was then unanimously appointed and was called in and congratulated by the Chairman. Three of the candidates interviewed, in reply to questions, said they had a conversa- tional knowledge of Welsh, the successful candidate being one of the three. A notice of Dr. Williams' career will be found elinwbere.

QUEBEC'S RECORD REVENUE FROM LANDS AND FORESTS.—A very interesting report re- lating to the work of the Department of Lands and Forests during tac- Past year has just been submitted to the Legislature of Quebec by the Hon, J, Allard, Minister of the Department. There are in the Province 7 129,062 acres sub. divided into available lots. Out of this total 195,871 acres have been sold for agricultural, industrial and other purposes, leaving on the 30th June, 1913, a superficies of 6,933,691 acres divided into farm lots, of which the Depart- rneqt can now dispose. The revenues from the i sale or letting of strand lots, water powers, and seigniories of the Crown Land, show a substan- tial increase. On the other hand, colonization is developing very quickly, especially in the I region of Abitibi. Last year the number of 1,899 perfect titles of property granted by the Department was considered a matter for pride j by the Minister, but this figure has been im- proved on this year and reached 1,946. j

A rule shoolri bt1 made tu.it at all places other than the last places on thf1 circuit s cause-; must be eniered ?;et less th:?ri three weks before the date men- i -nod in the Order in Coat-icit for the Assizes. The Coimeissinnerfi also recommend that the Grand Jo y now rrquired at Assizes and Quja-cer Sos tons be discontinued. This change can be UlèÔe omy by statute, and certain ia- cidental changes W proeeda/e would be re- quired. If a-() carried r)flt in tL]C'ii! entiretY-It, i* by no means certain that they will—Breoofsshiro will practically loae its assizes. It is rare that the conditions recom- mended necessary for the holding of assizes are fulfilled in onr law obt iing county, in other, worda it is rare tha; there are three prisoners com-mtted for tml at one assize. Moreover, Breeonsbu'o ;s not the last place in the circuit, and so vvouid have ):0 special claim on the ground of a big ?>atcb of civil business. The proposals urn sure to be opposed ia Parliament by private members of bot:) parties, and a good deel of water wiii flow down the Uak, we think, be tore they are carried out. A recommendation ohieh hardly anyone could have anticipated is the abandosjEaent of the G-aad Jury system, The system has it •weakut s-es, as for instance th.J waste of time on casc-j which are bound to go before the petty jury, but it has too distinct advantage of providing a ro aon for quashing very weak cases.

Elderly Incumbents and Disen- dowment. To the Editor of the County Times. SIR,—As you have been kind enough to allow space in your columns for discussing the above subject, may I ask a continuation of your favour. Your correspondent, J. Lampriere Davies, appears to me rut her hard upon incumbents who have private means. What about others who are dependent upon their livings ? Is it fair to ask one to retire and allow the others to continue, even to the detriment of the parish ? Why single out I those with private means ? These can do, and are doing, more in their parishes than the others can afford to do. I know that there are some incum- bents in the Archdeaconry of Brecon who spend I much more in their parishes than they receive from them. First of all, let a provision be made for the retirement of those who have no private means. I There are many worthy men in the Archdeaconry of Brecon whu have spent 20 or 3D years plodding t bard, in isolated parishes, at a very small pittance. There was no possibility for these men to make a provision out of their scanty income for the day of resignation. If half the money spent on the Cathedral staff was used for pensions for retired incumbents, it would have answered a better purpose. It makes one blush to think that the sum of £ 2.900 is paid to the Cathedral staff, in a parish of about 1,700 population. If some of this can be used towards an inspector of schools, why I not for other worthy objects, such as pensions for retiring incumbents ? I see from the list of services published in the Guardian that the members of the Cathedral staff are seldom required to preach more than once on Sunday, while many of the clergy in the Archdeaconry of Brecon have to preach tour times. It is also worthy of notice that there are less promotions from Breconshire than almost any other part of the dioceses. This to me means one of two things- that the Breconshire clergy are so well situated that promotion cannot be found for them, or that they are not eligible for promotion to any other county; hence they are left unnoticed, however small their sphere may be. To come back to the question of resignations. It has been suggested that the age of 65 should be the time for resigning, that is for incumbents. I Allow me to ask what is the age for deans, arch- I deacons, and canons ? Are they to retire ad lib, j or is there a specified period y | We have had an instance lately of the resig- » nation of a dean, who is allowed to receive a pension of J:300 per annum, whilst the maximum allowed an incumbent is one-third of his income, and even this is but seldom granted.
