THE MEDICAL -PANEL.___I
THE MEDICAL PANEL. I The Welsh Insurance OomiTiies^nprs hav notified us of the arrangements made by which an insured person may, if he so desires, change his doctor at the end of the current medical year (January 11). As we have had many inquiries addressed 113 upon this matter, it may be advisable to state the con- ditions that have to be observed. Any insured person who wishes to change h:8 doctor of approved institu- tion at the end of the medical year may do so on giving notice to the Insurance Committee of his desire not later than the 11th December next, which date has been fixed uniformly throughout Wales and Monmouthshire. Forms which may be used by insured persons in giving the requisite notice, and in choosing their doctor of approved institution tor the ensuing year, may be obtained from the Approved Society (or branch) of which insured persons are members, the In- surance Committee, at any head Post Office, or from officers of Customs and Excise, whose addresses may be ob- tained at any Post Office. 'J he address of the offices of the Insurance Com- mittee for any area may be found on the list exhibIted. in the Post Offices in the area. -———— ————-
ITHE ELECTIONS. I
THE ELECTIONS. I The adoption of Mr. J. Evan Row- lands by the Progressives of St. Helen's Ward as their standard bearer will give the ratepayers in this division of tlue town another opportunity of record- ing judgment upon the Municipal Re- formers. A comparison of the candi- dates is as ludicrous as it was just over a year ago. We want young men of Mr. Ro-wlands's type upon the Council —men who will never be mere party hacks but will think and act for them- selves. We remember what a com- motion the leader of the Reformers made some years ago about the alleged docility of councillors to the views of others. The docile section to-day is the band of Reformers who dare not turn round for fear of the consequences. They are not anxious to share the fate of a brother! Mr. Hemming, having strenuously fought for, and secured iis nomination, will now have to quiet down. independence is not a Municipal Reform virtue. NVe at-c glad to note that Mr Gething has decided not to complicate the issue at Landore. The Progressives have two very exec-Bent candidates in Mr. Clement and Mr. Evan Jones, the former of whom long ago won his spot's 1Il public life. The Socialist candidate —we believe Mr. David Richards would be more satisfied if we called him the Revolutionary candidate—has already enough pubtic work to do upon the lioard of Guardians, and, having been so recently elected, he should stick to it, and endeavour to carry out his I pledges to the ratepayers. In the Ffynone W rd Mr. Dysaei Wilbams's proopec? are considered most promising. Upon this occasion he is securing support in mi?xpocted quarters, and there prevails over all the Ward a feeling that a candidate of such ability, and so filled with en- thusiasm to scive his town, should be returned in preference to one who is running with a party with which he can have little sympathy We hope the Progressives of Ffjnone will this time vote solidly for one of their own way of thinking.
FUTURE OF THE TINPLATE ITRADE.
FUTURE OF THE TINPLATE TRADE. Tho interview we publish to-day with the member for Swansea, is an im- portant contribution to the subject Mr. Gilbertson opened out at the annual meeting of the Metal Exchange. Sir Alfred Mond, discussing the cut in tin- plate. prices hy the "Americans," says that he understands thai in America now they have introduced a very large amount of labour-saving appliances in their tinplate factories, so they have not the same difficulty in competing with our skilled labour. Mr. Gilbertson would not have it that in Russia or in America plant was more modern than in Wales, but since his address, corres- pondents have challenged his opinion; only the other day the superiority of Russian methods was described by one writer in our columns. And to-day we have the evidence of Mr. Sidney Jones, of Whitchurch, who, as president of the Steel Smelters' Union, vent to America at the request of the Union, and Mr. H. Spence Thomas (of the Melingriffith Company), to prepare a report on the conditions and methods at the various Transatlantic works. Mr. Jones's report comes at an oppor- tune moment. He says that he en- countered the greatest difficulty in get- ting into the works, and indeed failed to secure admi&sion at Tittsburg and Newcastle. This reminds us of the dis- appointment of an old Swansea copper worker who, after twenty years in the States came over this summer on holi- day and sought entrance into the works; it was refused, and a similar denial met him at other works. Mr. Jones, how- eVel", was fortunate at last. He gained permission to inspect the Canonsbury Works, distant about 20 miles from Pittsburg. There are ten mills at these works, and about 1,000 men are em- ployed there." Had they any new systems in use?" asked the reporter. Yes, they employ up-to-date methods," replied Mr. Jones, but what struck me most favourably was the new automatic catchers' in the finishing department. This is a great improvement on the old boy- catcher system." Then again Mr. Jones dwells upon the allocation of labour in the mills, which makes it far easier for the men. It is," he says, "undoubtedly superior to our method—that of employing 13 men for the three shifts. The plant, of course, will have to be modernised be- fore the system can be introduced with success in South Wales." Thus it will be seen that, if we are going to keep abreast with the Ameri- cans, we will have to modernise our plant, and that, in a survey of the industrial situation, not only the work- men are liable to criticism. Sir Alfred Mond'g statements, coming from a keen business man who knows his subject through and through, demands the most serious attention. We are glad to hail its bright note. "I see no reason why we should not hold our own against the world," he says. "It may require some attention to details of manufac- ture, to cheapening the cost of produc- tion, to taking more trouble about sales than in the past. But I think it can be done." That is the view oi' Welsh manufacturers who have spoken on the topic.
"Smokers Cured.'' *
"Smokers Cured. The Truthful Account of a Swansea Case. If had been visited by an smoking missionary whose inten" perance lay in the direction !r peppet mints ana committee m-eetirtgp! and of course he had been staggered at the arithmetica5! demonstration of th, amount there would have been in t!Je bank had he abjured the weed in early days. And shocked also at the picture the missionary drew ot the black slaw of his heart. The financial Might Have Been, taken by itself, was serious enough. Eighteefl" pence a week for fifty-two ws equalled Three pounds, eighteen. Th^ multiplied by the twenty years of hiS smoking days- it could not bear think- ing about. The missionai-y was right. He would put away pipe and pouch, arId build the foundations of fortune. But after suprer that night, his hand went automatically to the sacred corner of the iuaai..fl-piece w here he kept the old briar. And he cursed himself for weak-willed sort, of a man who had a master. And smoked himself into happier humoui. < For two years he had been the re* cipient of invitations to try ThO Smoker's Shoot Anchor. At first, tl16 enterprising firm had offered to remove the craving for the ridiculous sum ot one guinea they also had ru bbed In tbe moral of the lost fortune. They were very persevering.

She talked, 0 course, of his black heart—literally black, atthough she would have sub. scribed to it also as a bay tag- but he understood the reason for his coming martyrdom. Tb-Oy all understood it.

Aft-or that. They all understood that whe father's throat repudiated the incen^ of the pipe, when the cure had prov? itself, their tnni was to come. So t? arrival of the four-and-sixpenny panaceo was quite a family thrill. The Smoker's Sheet Anchor proved tâ be a box with seven compartments, an directions that were as complicated øS a tiinetahlo. There were four little white pills in one corner. These were to be taken before breakfast. There were seven little pink pills in anot snug corner. These were the cquivaleP of the (tors-doeuvres of dinner. The:-6 were ten little pink pills in anotber corner. These were the Last when Father's throat ached for a --the final line of defence when the tack of the foe "was being hotly pil home.
