A PROSPEROUS PENSION FUND. At the eleventh annual meeting of the Bon rnville Workmen's Pension Fund, which was recently held, it v.-as announced that the accumulated funds exceed £ 250,000, after writing: down over £ 32X00 for the depreciation of investments. There are over 3,000 members in the fund. whose contribu- tions in' the year amounted to over X13,000, Cadbury Bros., TJ.d.. paying an equal sum as in former years. In presenting their quin- Quennial report the ac-ttia,rieg--Mesgi-s. R. M. Moore and Vyyyall Marr—announced tJtat despite the depreciation of inveistment-3, 1U- creased income, tax charges, nnd the np- heaval occasioned by the war, they found a sufficient sirplus to increase the rate of existing and future pensions bv 10 per cent. At the commencement of this fund. eleven years ago, Messrs. Cadburv Bros. gave a special donation of £ 60,000, which was subse- quently increased by a further £ 13,000. These sums have proved sufficient to make good the contributions for the period of back service before the commencement of the fund. They have recently sriven a further donation of £ 10,000 for the special relief of war victims who are under pension age, and their dependents. From this latter gift pay- ments are now being made to widows of men killed in the war and to members who have been disabled.

STRIKE OVER.I
STRIKE OVER. I COOPERATIVE SHOPS I OPEN AGAIN. I AWARD PUT INTO FORCE AT I SWANSEA. i The Swansea Co-Operative employes' strike -embracing 120 people at nine s.hops- terminated on Tuesday night., when a mass meeting of members of the local. Co-Opera- tive Society decided to put the recent award in force. The shop:, were opened as usual on Wednesday morning. The trouble has arisen over the National Conciliation Board's award, which adopts a scale of wages for a 48 hours week. Swan- sea is one of 3B Co-Operative Societies bound by the agreement, and it was due to the Delay in Putting the Aivard in Farce I that the Swansea employes came out lasw Saturday morning. There are over 4,000 members belonging to the Swansea Society, and of these a good proportion attended the meeting at the Albert Halt when the position of each side was explained by Coun. D. Williams (the chairman of the society) for the society and Mr. Knill for the employes. At the outset there was some Objection to Councillor Williams presiding, and an independent chairman was selected from the meeting in Mr. J. W. Bowen (Postmen's Federation). It was explained from the society's view point that while they admitted being par- ties to the award, the committee bad not felt justified in putting the award into force owing to the different interpretations that could be placed upon certain points, without nrst consulting the general body of mem- bers. The, upshot of the meeting, which was confined to the members, was that at was agreed to put the Award in Force at Once I (there were only two or three objectors to this course), and the opinion was expressed that the employes had acted irregularly and unfairly n coming out, and that they should I have submitted their grievances to the mem bers first. The award is retrospective from last June, and it will, we understand, entail between I £ 400 and the Official Report. We have been supplied with the following) official report: "The mc 01 p. by a majority vote decided that the .). I of the Concilia"- I tion Board (subject to trie interpretation of the Board) should be granted in,-its entirety. The Committee of Management unreservedly l accepted the mandate of the members and immediately after the meeting met the com- mittee of the employ&«,' together with their Trade Union officials, and amicably arrang- ed all the details for an immediate resump- j tion of work on

FI R'SITS AND SECONDS." COAL PRICES AGAIN FIXED AT MUMBLES. At Oyatermouth Council on Tuesday the question of coal prices for the winter—the recent fixing of which hiid caused consider- able dissatisfaction in the village—was re- j opened. The principal grievance appears to 1 be that the ordinary householder does not j know the difference between first and second quality coals, and has no means of a,Cert.ain- ing whether he is being charged correctly by the merchant. After a long and somewhat complicated; discussion. Mr. Evans proposed and Mr. John Jones seconded that the following prices b £ charged No. 1 District: First ouality. £ 2 per ton; seconds. £ l 17s. 6d No. 2 District: firsts, £ 2 Is. 18s. 6d., and extra for bagging all round. The price for small quantities to be 2%. per cwt, Mr. John Harris added a rider that the surveyor take all possible steps to see that j the coal supplied to the public are the kinds. they require. 1 '"Charging the price of first quali,ty for. -oiids is absolutely monstrous," remarked Harris, "and any case proved will be severely dealt with."
