TASMANIAN APPLES. Tr News of Swansea's Fruit Supply. t The great trouble of Swansea fruit pur- I v veyor* is about those apples. A steamer, which was due at Liverpool on Friday with a big cargo, has baen on the voyage from Tasmania since last February, having been delayed at various ports." It is also said that the apples arc in an t unsatisfactory condition." Further, the whole crop has been bought up by a syn- dicate, who dispose of them on conditions that the Liverpool merchants do not ap- 11 prove." ? The o4?Tvt is that there are no apples in | | Swansea, though seven part cargoes are ? on the way, and may land next week. Of oranges ,there is a short supply, but they are 01 excellent quality. Retail prices run from Hd. to 41.1. for the lus- 1 cious Florida. TU«re are plenty of dates | to be had at 6d. per lb., but somehow dates 1 ■ are not much in demand. English toma- 4 toes are selling at 2s. 6d. and 3?. per lb., tbou.-I-i tomatoes are offered in Swansea :Market at Is. Cd. There is a fair supply of green vege- tables. cabbage at 3d. and 4d. per lb., but very little brocoli; a fair supply of lettuce and of spring oniong, t'he latter at two bundles for lid. not too many radishes at 2d. per bunch. Cucumbers, a short supply, sell at 10d. to Is. 3d. each. There is plenty of rhubarb; that seems I' about the only fruit" of which there is plenty; no shortage of old potatoes at the controlled price, and new potatoes, which are not very plentiful, as it is too early yet, can be obtained at la. per lb. Parsnips and carrots are practically I finished, though a very fine sample of big roots was on sale in Swansea Market at t 21d. per lb.

SWANSEA PLOTTERS I PilOR ATTENDANCE AT PUBLIC MEETING About a score of Swansea allotment I holders troubled to drop their spades on t Friday evening to come to a meeting at the Guildhall to consider a proposed Swansea" and District Allotment Holders and Food Production Exhibition in the autumn, similar to that held last year. Mr. A. K. Drumiuorifl was voted to tihft chair, and the secretary of the committee which arranged the last show (Mr. T. A. Evans) read a letter from tho Town Clerk guarantœing the committee against a loss I not exceeding ?25. Subscriptions l&st) year were £ l->5 16s., entri0S ?10 ifs. 3d., other r?c?ipts M7 9s. 10d., and the ( balance surplus was £H 8s. Id., allocated ) among various funds in the town, so that I there was only 6e. 6d. in hand. Fl VE- OUT OF TWENTY. 1 Only five of about 20 allotment societies were represented, and the Chairman thought unless they could form a strong committee they could not proceed. The opinion was expressed that the at- tendance was not a criterion of the in- terest of the allotment holders, who in consequence of bad weather were very busy. The secretary of the Richmond-road Society moved that a show he held in September. The resolution found no seconder, and Mr. Evans (Danygraig) moved as an amendment that the secretary write the diffiiWftt associations and then caU anot her meeting. Mr. Holder (Hendrefoilan) seconded. PARKS COMMITTEE ATTACKED. .1 ?ff 11 -.? JVLr. j, xi. Morgan (Mietty) regretted that there was present no member of the Swansea Parks Committee, which was supposed to father the scheme. They would probably be falling over one another to attend the Prince of Wales' dinner, whilst this important matter went by the hoard. This was an insult to the committee which carried out last year's show. The parks superintendent himself did his part. The resolution, together with the re. quest to the Parks Committee to lend further assistance, was carried.

WAR SAVINGS. I Controller's Interesting Speech at Cardiff. Glamorganshire and Monmouthshire have every reason to-feel proud of their part in the great war savings campaign, and at a conference representative of all the local committees in the two counties, held at Cardiff on Friday, it was decided to continue in peace days the great thrift movement which had its origin in national stress. Sir Theodore Chambers, K.B.E., who is the Controller of the National War Savings Committee, gave an excellent and concise review of the work, from the national and local standpoint. They had been instrumental in establishing 1,700 war oavings associations or clubs, with a membership of nearly 170,000, and an average annual subscription of £ 5 per I member. The problem before the con- ference wa. to decide how the work should go on now that the war wae over. Sir Theodores pointed out that the asso- ciations had done many things, outside their proper province, to assist the Government during the war, particularly in the food economy campaign and in the big War Loan appeals. TEN YEAR CERTIFICATES. I The desire to invest in War Savings Certificates, he declared, would lust as long as the Government issued them, be- cause the movement was a popular one. The idea of certificates was one of the most brilliant inventions in the world of finance. Sir Theodore dealt with the new Government scheme for War Savings Certificates, whereby the holder might, if be wished, extend the period to ten years. He would be allowed a penny a month mterest for tha extended period, with a bonus of Is. at the end of the ten years, making the value of the certificates after jJ ten years 26s. NATIONAL DEBT. The speaker briefly reviewed Britain's fnancial position, and said that some people were horrified at our National Debt of six thousand million sterling, but he did not regard it as a serious mutter when they realised how it was spread. It was only £126 per head of the popula- tioa, or a debt charge at 4 per cent. at f5 per head. Our productive power was well able to stand it. It was true we owed America a considerable amount, but that was quite balanced by the amount owing to us from our Allies, so that our net debt was held entirely in this country. The conference then proceeded to dis- cuss in private a draft echeane, the main object of which was to correlate the I activities of tho associations, and to secure an elastic basis working up through the associations and the local I committees to area conferences, and thence to the National War Savings Committee. t.

THE CARL ROSA VISIT. I To the Editor. I btr,-In reply to "StalliteM (Swansea), an -qea ) who wrote to your contemporary, I would like to point out one or two errors in the letter. This gentleman complains that Cardiff is favoured with a higher standard of talent, but as this is merely a matter of opinion it would take up too much space to go thoroughly into the question. One thing I would remind your corre- spondent of, and that is, the Royal Carl Rosa Opera Company are bringing to Swansea the largest operatic company that has ever visited Swansea, or Cardiff, or, ns a matler of fact, any other town in' Wales. Your correspondent also mentions that there is a great vocal supe-riorityin the artistes of the o. 1 Company and the one that is visiting Swansea. Here, again, I would point out that the Cart Rosa Opera Company's controlling direc- tors have never, and do not intend to, run a No. 2 Company. All the leading artistes j et,gage.d are interchangeable, and even during the visit to Swansea some of the artistes will be singing in the West End of London, and they will also sing in Swansea. The company which opens at the Grand Theatre on Monday next is visiting Cork and Belfnst. and then has a season in GInsgow, after which they go to London for a season. The company ha6 been considerably strengthened, and it toured at enormous expense, and is not s No. 2 Company. The chorus is magnificent, and in every town the company wins its way by giving first class performances. I think when Stallitfi has witnessed one or two of the operas to be given next I_ w.elr. he will agree that Swansea has been [ fax-oured.-Yours. etc.. Confident.

DEMOBILISE A1. I Swansea Pensions Committee and Death. To a monthly meeting of the t)isal-ile- ment Sub-Committee of the Swansea War Pensions Committee, held on Friday after- noon (Mr. C. E. Cleevea presiding), the arrival was reported of the two motor chassis for the use of the men undergoing training as motor mechanics at the Tech- nical College. It had been intimated that they had been selected by a representative cf the Ministry of Pensions before March 7th, but that there had been delay with the various Government departments. Now that they had arrived, it was reported that they were in a delapnlated state, and it was doubtful whether they could be of use. The Committee asked Dr. Varley to report on this. DEAD—A1 MONTH PREVIOUSLY. it was reported that a man demobilised on the 5th March as Al, died from nephritis four days after the expiration of his 28 days' furlough. The Committee decided to advance an amount equal to a widow's pension to the widow pending the decision of the Minis- try of Pensions as to eligibility for pen- sion. BOOT AND SHOEMAKING. It was reported that it is hoped to com- mence very shortly a scheme for training disabled men in boot and shoemaking (in- cluding hand-sewn work) in Swansea—it was understood with the support of the men's organisation. It was further reported that since the opening of the Hospital annexe 32 cases had been admitted and four discharged. Since the Armistice, it was stated, the Committee had deal* with 505 cases of demobilised men, including 204 claiming pension at the time of demobilisation. Decisions had been received in 116 cases of this nature, and 69 claims for pensions under Article IX. of Royal Warrant, 1918, had also been dealt in.

COAL INQUIRY. ———— 0- Miners' Bill for State Control. At tfce Ooal Commission tnquiry, on Friday afternoon, evidence was given on behalf of the Miners' Federation of Great Britain by Mr. Henry H. Slasser, bar- rister, and standing counsel of the Fede- ration. He submitted a draft Parliamen- tary Bill which, he said, embodied the Miners' Federation scheme for the nation- alisation of mineil and miotrals in Great Britain. This his already been dealt with in the<?e columns. STATE MINES IN GERMANY. Capt W. Stephen Sanders, secretary of the Fabian Society, gave evidence of the State Brines in Germany. He said that the administration of German State mines might justly be described a* a form of State capitalism. The mines were pieces of State property, which were used with the object of raising revenue, the output being mainly absorbed by the State rail- ways, the navy, and the army. The man- agement was bureaucratic, and the work- ers had no voice whatever in control or management. The State Governments almost universally refused to recognise Trade Unionism, and this accounted largely for the weakness of German miners' organisations. The effect of State ownership on the conditions of life and work amongst the miners was, in some respects, undoubtedly good. I STATE WAGES LOWER. J I Tne &tate wages were lower than, in some of the privately-owned mines, but the Prussian Government provided ameni- ties, in connection with the mines which were superior to those of private enter- prise, and it. was more generous in its treatment of oases of ill-health, in erect- ing miners' cottages, advancing loans to miners to build their own houses, and the establishment of baths and wash-houses. In 1913 there was a net profit on the Prus- sian Stnte mines of 14,500,000 marks, and in 1914 it was estimated that the surplus would i-eaeb 17,000 000 marks. With re- gard to the output, the production per miner in the State mines was leas than in private mines, but it was not clear that the production per miner par day worked was less. The Commissions then debated in pri- vate, and will resume the public sittings on Tuesday morning.

A NURSING HOME. Skewen and Neath Abbey Ambition. The 11th annual meeting of the Skewen and Neath Abbey District Nurelng Associa- tion was held on Friday, Mr. J. E. M-ocre- Gwyn, J.P.. DyfTryo, presiding. The hon. oeorot&ry (Mrs. Griee-yvi) and hon. trea surer (MNI. Reason) presented most gratifying reports, the la«fc yee-r being the most prosperous in the history of the A flo- atation. The tctaJ receipts were 9427 17e. Id., and the expenditure CMI 3a. 1M., with a balance on the year's working of .£146 13s. 3d. 1 cheque fcT 1-20 from the Neath National Eisteddfod Committee was grate- fully acknowledged. The total vi-"v paid had been 4,031. The president was Mrs. Moore Owym; vice- president,, Mrs. Theodore Oibbine; the treas- urer and eecretary were re-cleoted and thanked, as were the nui-see-Miss Williams and Mise Llewelyn. The support of the Swansea Preee was aloo acknowledged. M.rs. licore Gwyn said that undoubtedly the nurses should be hetter paid, and there ought to be at least three nurses. NURSING HOME. I Mr. W. X. Smith was anxioua that the Nursing Committee and the Trade and Laboar Council should co-operate with a view of providing a Nursing Home. Mr. JohR Rees said that if the ooramitbee provided a. buildjpg for the Home, the workers would maintain it.

TRANSPORT BIUL, Local Attitude on Electricity Supply. The Town Clerk ha-s circulated to mem- bers of the Swansea Town Council Alder- man A. Sinclair's report of the Incorpor- ated Electrical Association's meeting op the Electricity (Supply) Bill, 1919. The Chairman of the Electricity Com- mittee (who attended with the vice-chair- .manj Ald. T. Jamos, and the engineer, Mr. Burr) says the prinoipal amendments to the Bill, carried by the Association, were: "In the appointment of district boards members of local authorities shall be in the majority; financially, companies and local authorities shall be treated on 'identical lines; and instead of the ap- pointing authority being the Minister of Ways and Communications, it shall be the President of the Board of Trade." THE PROCEDURE. The Bill having passed its second read- ing," Aid. Sinclair says, it will imme- diately go before Grand or other Genu- mittee of the House, and it is necessary that our Council should pass a resolution as easiy as passible eudorsing or otherwise the action tukSw, and that such resolution should 1)0 M:llt to local members of Par- liament asking them to render all assist- ance in their power in seeing the Bill, as amended, through all its siagw ia Par- liament."

HE'S A TOPPER." ] Boy's Impression of the Prince of Wales, Bertie Spillman, the boy who was knocked down by tie Prince of Waios's car in the City on Wednesday, paid a visit to the Prince a: Bu-chingliam Palace i on Friday morning. He chatted with the Prince in the library for over half an hour. I thought he was a iit),ort when he came to the hospital," Bertie told a Daily Express u i representative yesier-lay, but now I am I convinced lie is a topper.' He seemed oven more concerned to-day than he did immediately after the mishap, and liisi first words were that he was extremely sorry it was his CH that had knocked me down, and hoped I would soon be fit again. Then," continued Bertie, who was ac- companied by his mother and Mrs. Southern-Wood, a married sister, he spoke to me about my wrist-watch, which lie had heard was broken in the mishap. He regretted not having one to give me there and then, but he promised to ttend on one to me in a day or two." Thero was something else Bertie got which he will always treasure. He went to the Palace armed with an autograph album belonging to another sister. She asked me to get the Prince to sign it. I got it all right, although I was a bit ner- vous about asking him. "Here it is," he said, as he pointed with pride to the page containing the bold signature in ink Edward P., 23—5—19." The Prince sat and chatted with the boy and his mother for over half an hour. The Prince is a very nice young man, and made us all feel thorough at home," said Mrs. Spillman.

TWO PPTSE?'«TMENTS. I Work for Oystermouth Court Leet. The Leet Court of the Ancient Manor of Oystermouth was held on Friday at the Marine Hotel, Mumbles. Mr. R. W. Beor, 6teward, presided, when the following jurors were appointed:—Messrs. Aid. J. Harris, Simon Lloyd, Richard Bevan, Morgan Hopkin, T. Owen, T. Woolacott, R. Paachey, T. Bcynon, John Owen, J. J. Bevan, P. E. Beer, A. S. T. Lucas, John Phillips, and Police Inspector Williams, The following officers were also ap- pointed: Reeve, Mr. R. E. Woolacott; lair keeper, Aid. J. Harris; ale taster, Mr R. Peachey; pound keeper, Mr. R. Poachoy; hay wards, Messrs. R. Woola- cott, W. O. Woolacott, and W. Beynon. TANKS ON THE COMMON. A presentment was made by Mr. W. I Beynon stating that a person resident at Mayals had sunk three tanks on the com- mon and was charging his neighbours for the water. Mr. Francis Hobbs, the Duke's agent, said that he would see into the matter. Complaints were also made with regard to a person at Blackpill being allowed to occupy a part of the common near the station with derelict carts, etc. They were most unsightly. The steward was asked to give the man one mouth's notice to remove the nuis- ance. POST PRANDIAL FUNCTION. At the post prandial function the usual toasts were drunk, and speeches made by Mr. R. W. Beor, Mr. Francis Hobbs. Ald. John Harris, Mr. Morgan Hopkin, and solos were sung by Messrs. T. Woolacott, Morgan Hopkin, C. P. Bell, and John Phillips. Mr. Hobbs distinguished himself as a reciter of folk lore, and in the art of story telling, which was thoroughly en- joyed by all present,

STATE DOCTORS. I Some important revisions and exten- sions in the conditions of medical service under the National Health Insurance Act are recommended by the committee of the British Medical Association in a circular to the medical profession. One of the chiei changes proposed is that the non-insured population should have the benefit of a general practitioner service. It is important, the Committee MT, that as from early in ISift thp nddi- tional services should lie regarded as an essential part of the whole service, though in practice they must ba developed only gradually. .( Round.table conferences are pro- posed between the. Central Government Department, the committoo of the asso- ciation. and otnr professional organisa- tions. with regard to the extension of the service to the dependents of insured persons; the provision of residential in- stitutional treatment; and the administra- tive arrangements which should be es- tablished for the proper provision and supervision of the "ice." It is particularly pointed out that neither the profession nor the Govern- wient are bound by these suggestions. Sev- eral meetings of local committee. have al- 'eady been held to discuss the renort.

I TOMMY PHILLIPS I "ROVER" HAS A CHAT WITH THE CHAMPION I CONFIDENT fOR JUNE 7. Thnimy Phillips, the light-weight (Jlam- pion of Wales, has a philosophy of his own. Ho at any rate believes in improv- ing his shining hour. Early this morning, writes Rove* I looked out from my window and saw Tommy with his trainer, Jim Tucker, in the beautiful seclusion of the Gaoil fields. Old Sol was radiant, but the refreshing breeze tempered its ray. The tranquillity was now and then broken by the notes of the cuckoo, and the singing of the feath- ered chorus, but Tommy was oblivious to all his aurroundings. Clad in the scanty dress of. the boxing ring, lie was racing with measured step around the Gnoll en- closure. I SHADOW BOXING. I i watcuea inm go rounu uu-ee times, I four times, five times, and I wondered when he was going to atop; still he kept on at the same pact. I watched from the window no longer; in less than 5 nuuutas I joined him in the field, and here he was, as fresh as the proverbial daisy, going through his extraordinary Shadow boxing, he called it; then came hand ball and skipping. It was truly a wonderful performance, and one which evidenced a tremendous amount of deter- mination for the achievement of an am- bition—that ambition is to maintain his reputation on June 7th in tiie prssenoe of his own folk. [ CONFIDENT FOR JUNE 7th. It is a star turn in a boxing tourna- ment. In the ring he is to meet Joe St earner, one of the most formidable light-weights the Army has produced. Tommy was confident of his success. He told mo that there had been some diffi- culty as to weight, but it has now been decided that they shall weigh in at 2 o'clock on the afternoon of the fight at 9st. 91b.. Can you do it, Tomipy ?" I asked. Quite easily," he replied. After a week's idleness this is my first serious training, and I am going to kef'p it vp until the nght. Jim Tucker here, is th(? best trainer I have ever had. Be is a sort of drill sergeant-instructor, ar,,d yu know what that means. I WORK IN THE RING. Next Monday I commence work in the ring, and I have a fine lot of boy. as sparring partners. Yes, I am. feeling as fit as a fiddle. "Confidence, did you sayF I never enter the ring without confidence. I in- tend to do all I can to win. If I don't, well, I shall smile and yearn for the dawn of another day when we shall fight again." I CHALLENGE TO KID JONES. Pen dragon writes: Mr. T. J. Clarsoy, of 24. TNwyddfa Common, Morriston, fiwansea, informs me that the is backing Sammy Jones, of Ton Pent?*, whom Kid Jones, Morriston, is aBuucua to meet'. He says that he is prepared to cover any sum from £ 25 to æJ.60 that Kid Jones deposits with the Sporting Newa," to bind a match with Sammy Jones at 7st. 41bt.
