The arrival ot the Colours of the 1st uelsh Regt. from LlanclafF Cathedral yesterday, together with the home-com- ing of the 2nd Batt. the Welsh Eegt. and Cokmr. were two interesting events at Pembroke Dock.

The homecoming of the 2nd Batt. tbe Welsh Regt. ,after many years oyer sen*, was the soLNne of great rejoicing "at Pembroke Dock.

HUDSON'S CONSOLI-I DATED LTD.
HUDSON'S CONSOLI- I DATED LTD. The Unissued Capital. The directors of Hudson's Consolidated I ltd., n a circular state that they have <fecided to provide additional working capital to complete the financial arrange- I ments necessary to place the newly-ac- qulre-d manganese properties in Great I Britain on a largely increased profit-earn- "ing, basis, in order to secure the results I anticipated in the various reports re- ceived from the company's managers and I consulting engineers. The company now I offers for subscription 70,000 it per cent, cumulative and participating preference ) shares of it each at par, and 141,693 or- j diaary shares at it 5s. per el share. ) After the payment of a fixed dividend j{ of 7! per cent, to the preference shars. ) the ;alance of the total profit distributed i fT? DIVIDENDS in each year is applied as to 10 per cent. to the preference, and as to 3'1 j per ,nt. to the ordinary 5hareholr5. 1 I THE MANGANESE PROPERTIES. I Mr. G. A. Stockfeld, F.R.G.S, etc., the well-known mining engineer, Vho has had considerable experience in 3nanganege mining, reports that the pro- pertiea in North Wales, comprising eleven .square miles in extent, are being profit- i Mbiy worked on the present output of 500 torks a month, and estimates that. with expenditure of £ S5,0tM) on equipment and aerial ropeways, the output can be increased to 1,000 tons or over per week. This, it is considered, will give a profit of -at least 9.115,000 per annum. His eeti- matee of the ore available show over* a million tons, and recent development in- dicates that this amount may now bo reckoned as li million—an amount which may be considerably enhanced by the pro- gress of the development work, Mr. Ftockfeld states'that the completion or the works recommended, which should be effected in about six months, will greatly reduce working costs. WORKING CAPITAL—The present issue, after completing the purchase of various interests and paying the uuder- writing commission and expenses of this issue, provides additional working capital to the extent of £ 80,000, which, with the present resources of the company, will enable the directors to complete the un- dertakings. THE TIMBER PROPERTIES. I The directors have taken the opportu- nity of reviewing certain other of the company's enterprises ,and publish valu- ations and reports by the manager, Mr. H. H. Riddle, and by Mr. F. A. Salman, the twil-known timber expert, on the St. Anne timber property in Canada, situated i on the at. iawrence itiver. Mr. Riddle states that the property is equipped with b circular saw-will, having & capacity of. 10,000ft. per day. The mill has been running to full capacity since November last, supplying timber to speci- f cation at less than i8 per standard, and that similar timber is now selling in England at S34 per standard upwards. He calculates that there- exists over 30p,000,000ft. of good timber on the pro- perty, and that, with an expenditure of from 130,000 to 1:30,000, the necessary dam and additional sawmill can be erected in five months. The completion of this -work should easily allow of 100,000 board feet of first quality timber being cut per day, equal to 50 standards, on which there should ho a profit of S15 to £25 per stan- dard. The minimum of £ 15 per standard (based upon pre-war prices) would give a profit of over £ 112,500 per annum, work- ing only,150 days in the year. This is considered an extremely conservative esti- mate. I EXPERT'S REPORT. Mr. F .A. Salaman's valuation states that, the St, AIUlEl property is listed to contain 9H squade miles, that the loca- tion, working facilities, and quality of the timber are excellent. He considers it safe to rely upon at least 200 working (Sfys in each year fop supplies to the In ¡; (which would materially increase tfce estimated profits), and that. timber can be cut at. the mill all the year round and freighted to Europe by sailing vessels at a minimum. of cost. Logging, he con- tinues, presents no difficulty, and there is a new Government pier 1,640ft. long by 22ft. wide within two miles from the mill, 80 tba t oc?n-gcing vse-ls up to <0ft. draug&t can lay alongside and be %Sily i loaded. Mr. Salaman confirms the report of Mr. H. H Riddle, and estimates the value of the timber, after allowing for cost of cut- ting and, freight to Europe, at over taking an all round figure of t35 per standard. He points out, how- ever,, tfi^t sale prices range to-day from £34 to f,60 per standard for the various class^s of timber for which there is a big demand, whilst the recent Government control prices are considerably higher than those taken by Mr. Salaman in his valuation." PROFITS. The profits computed to be earned from the working of the manganese and timber properties alone should, therefore, on the conservative basis mentioned, yield a return approximating 50 per cent, per annum upon the entire capital of the company. WIRELESS^,ENGINEERING, AND RAILWAY INTERESTS. .Arrangements are being mad e to extend the motor-lorry business, in which the company is largely interested, and more extensive promises are being taken with a view to the rapid development of the trade from which the directors antici- pate continued satisfactory profits. With the improved Mexican situation, the Company's extensive railway interests in Mexico eridence prospects of being able to be dealt with at an early date. Progress is being made in regard to the development of the wireless invention, from which very profitable results are confidently anticipated. All further particulars can be obtained on application to the Secretary of the Company at the Registered Office, 1. Queen Victoria-street London, E.C.4.
.R. E. JONES, LIMITED.I
R. E. JONES, LIMITED. .An ftxtraordinary general meeting M toe. above-named company was held at the Hotel. Swansea, on Thursdav, the 29th of May, 1919, Ifr. S. B. Jones pre- siding, for the purpose of considering, and, if-thought fit, passing the following spe- cial resolutions:— 1. That the 35.000 ordinary shares of XI esch in the capital of the company, on each of which .£1 is credited as fully paid up, he sub-divided into 140.000 flill-y paid up s hares of,Ss. &,teh. 2. That the 65,000 ordinary shares of El each in the capital of the company, which. have not been issued, be subdivided into 260,000 ordinary shares of 5s. each. The Chairman explained that the sub- divisaop of ordinary shares would create a freer market, enabling smaller investors to participate. The resolutions were unanimously car- ried, and will be submitted for confirma- tion at the meeting to be held on Friday, the f:1th June. The Chairman briefly re- ferred to the fact that their anticipations in regard to the increase in busin gs had been more than realised. In regard to the London properties, it was stated tnat plans for the entire re- construction of the Hotel de Provence, Leicester Square, had been parsed by the licensing Judges and the London County Council authorities, whilst plans for the B?ford Head and ManchMter Hotels were being prepared, and tM alteration hême ?n connction with them were bemg ?uth$d akaa& ,J
I NEW VICAR.
I NEW VICAR. BISHOP OF ST. DAVID'S AT SWANSEA INDUCTION NOTABLE GATHERING I In an impressive service, and before a large congregation, the new Vicar of Swansea, the Rev. Harrington Clare j Lees, M.A., was inducted on Thursday j evening by the Lord Bishop of St. I David's, with whom were Canon the 11V- J. H. Watkms Jones (who acted as chap- lam), and Re., Harold 8. Vv illiams (Rural Dean). The servioe up to the Bishop's institution, was conducted by Revs. R. C. Knox (St. James'), and R. j Brea (St. Mary's). while the lessons we-c read by Mr. A. Featherstone (lav reader), and Canon Watkms Jones. 1'he t churchwardens, MessM. J. 1'. Wood and Syd Solomon (vicar's) and John D?er and E. F. Serie (Mayor?) also a?isted. I Other clergy preent included Revs H. j J. Stewat and ?. Parcell (Sketty), Mr. n.L. Williams, R. L. D. Lewis, Watkin Davies, S. T. PhiH]p?. and J. A. Phil- lips, while among Nonconformist mini- sters were Revs. D. Price, R. J. Willongbby, H. C. Mander, G. McLuckie, I R. Greenshields, and M. "Lvans. The Mayor was represented by Aid. Ben Jones, with whom were the MaGress and Mr/ Jones, and Miss PTisciHa Smith, daughter of the late. Dean Smith, was II among the congregation. After the new Vicar had made the de- claration and taken the oaths, kneeling before the Bishop, and the latter had in- stituted him and. laving on hands, bad ,pronounced the Benediction, the hymn. "'('o me, Y-oly Ghost, our Souls Inspire," was sung, kneeling, and the Vicar touched the door handle and tolled the bell to signify taking- possession. BISHOP'S TRIBUTE., i After prayers the Bishop preached on ?porti&M of Matthew xx, 18, 19 a?.d "All power is given unto men in heaven and in earth. Go yea, therefore, and teach all nations, baptising them.. And ?o I am with you alway, even unto the end of the world." Looking back on that important day in the history of the I town, they thought of the brave man who undertook the great work of .building that noble church and who had left a lasting mark in-the history of the church in Swansea, and they thought of the Vicar instituted seventeen years ago the previous day. The latter endeared him- self to the people of Swansea by the earnestness of his Christian character I and the charming consistency of his holv I life. The new Vicar, whpni they heartily welcomed and in whose selection those who had the trust took great pains, came with a single-hearted dc-rire, to help at a critical time, and came with a high re- putation and great Ns-ped gained by faithful and successful ministry. 1. 1. TO-DAY'S PROBLEMS. Let them take courage. In these days of great opportunity and responsibility and of great danger, the power of Christ and His Gospel was amply sufficient to solve the problems of this century, as it had those of it predecessors. Some people were rather disposed to lose heart be- cause of the magnitude of to-day's many problems but, as one wise teacher of the last, century said, di then I tics were prob- lems to be solved, and faith, as always would overcome the world. If all the. Christian people in Swansea wonldwork i with a single mind for God they might live to see the town much more alive than to-day. A reception followed in the National Schools, refreshments bving served by the Ladies' Workin* Party, directed Mrs. P. W. Vergette. Presiding at a welcome meeting, the Rev. Harold S. Williams welcomed Mr. and Mrs. Leee on behalf of the clergy of the deanery. NONCONFORMIST WELCOME. The Rev. H. C. Mander followed on he. half of the. Nonconformist ministers in- vited. Ma^T Free Church people, he eaid, welcomed the new Vicar with de- light and expectancy. Some of them had known him for many yenrs by his books and other writings, and knew his great "-rvice to the cause, knew that he was a man of great spirituality, great in heart and mind, and that he would well fill the post. Ho did not suppose the ex- cellent feeling between the different churches in the town was ever stronger or the co-operation ever more real and faithful than to-day, and that was un- doubtedly due to the interest and work of the late Vicar. (Applause). Canon Rice had been a great unifying force in the town, his great evangelical zeal, his beautiful transparent character and his II wide brotherUnees having so endeared him to them that he became a sort of rallying point for all the various Christian sections in the community. He tT11d that f?Ung would grow, and that to grapple with ?reat problems ahead they would come clr togeth('T.! Although they would not get unity hy burking, or slurring over their differ- encee, there was yet a greater'unity that could comprehend them all; The Rev. Canon J. H. faatkitw Jones, estending a greeting from the other Swansea churches, hopeo the future would compel them to cktee their ranks and come shoulder to shoulder to put down the vice and wickedness that were rearing thcir-heads in Swansea. SWANSEA ASSOCIATIONS. Mr. Syd Soloipon and the Bishop hav- ] Injf spoken, the new Vicar, very heartily I received, and evidently much impressed, returned thanks. He pointed out that they did not feel "quite strangers, as his brother served in Swansea happily and found there his wife. whise mother and father had been so long honoured in their midst, and whose relatives were present that day. Hardy, of Holy Trinity, John MorgaiL and Martilf Lintoq Smith, the Bishop of W arrington, he knew, and for many years he bad known and loved Willi. Talbot Rico, whom he was fol- lowing. They were not coming for loaves and fishes." "John Bull" once attacked him for accepting a living for the sake of additional money; if anybody now said that they could reply that lie was drop- ping C5 per week to come. They came. among other things because they believed In the possibilities of the church. and believed in commerce.. While believing in the brotherhood and unity of all Christians, he was heart and eoul in wanting his own church (outside of which he would be ecclesiastically homeless) to stand shoulder to shoulder in hor work. He did not think a church could be healthy without its schools of thought, and while he would burn all party divisions to-morrow, he would die for his school of thought, —.———— ———— THE VICAR'S NEW BOOK.

! DOCTOR'S SALARY
DOCTOR'S SALARY I SWANSEA GUARDIANS' TRIBUTE TO DR. LLOYD EDWARDS I I INCREASE GRANTED A meeting of the Swansea Guardians ¡ was held on Thursday afternoon, Mr. Dd. Grey presiding. Oil a proposal that several applications for increases of salary be referred .to the Duties and Salaries Committee, Mr. Abe Freed man thought the application of Dr. Lloyd Edwards should be dealt with by the Board. Dr. Ldwards asked that this matter should be settled. He felt he coukHiave it without coming to the Board j but hb wanted the approval of the new body of Guardians. Mr. Parker tliought it better that this should go to the Duties and Salaries Com- mittee, to be thrashed out like the others. Mr. W. H. Thomas favoured dealing with this at once. They would only be pe-aflirraing a resolution of the old Board. Dr. Edwards only asked for justice. It was decided to deal with the appli- cation of Dr. Edwards, and that all other applications should be referred to the Duties and Salaries Committee. The increase asked for by Dr. Edwards is from £ 700 to L,950. DOCTOR'S SERVICES. I The clerk read minutes and gave a re- sume of the cours? of discussion up to date. In one of his letters. Dr. Edwards had stated he was much worse off than ordinary medical assistants in the town," He also pointed out that he made 9,000 visits a year, and had 13,000 consultations. Mr. Bart Cronin moved that Dr. Edwards be granted his application. Mr. Abe Freedman seconded. He Mid Dr. Edwards had given 18 yeaTs of splen- did service under the Board, and, a* com- pared ivirt Cardiff, he was very poorly treated No one had ever known Dr. Edwards refuto visit any fick pauper at any hour of day or Mr. E. Phillips supported. No kinder man than Dr. Edwards ever entered a house. If they lost him, the poor of the I district would 'lose a man with a heart. I He would certainly like to have him as his nrivat^ doetnr I AMONG$T THE POOR. t Mr. W. H. Thomas said that someone had said to him: I suppose you toe! -•pry proud of your doctor? He also said he was connoted with a club in the lower part of the town, and, saw the doctor go I into a house. Good morning, doctor'" said the patient, your dear face does me ^rood." Tiie doctor replied: N -rer mind my face; how did you enjoy the little chicken I spnt you? The poor were jroing to lose a valuable servant for the sake of a paltry tlgo. H e felt "sure the vote would I go the right way'that afternoon. ¡ Mr. W. J. Rees ashed whether thêir! officer was behind the officers at Cardiff, and the clerk replied that he thought not. 4 NOT LIKE A PARISH DOCTOR. Aid Dd. Crifnthe aid he ha? opposed j on Mch (X:<'n?:cn His amendment was that they fa st ? particulars from Qther towns. He thought, that was fair. Mr. Matthew Griffiths pointed out that at the ineetin,, vvhic-b' carried the previous! resolution, only 23 were present, and 1;;1 voted for the increase; Mrs. H, J. Will lanis said; they wpre giving every .opportunity that day, and taking the .discussion just when DlPmbep were coming in .fresh from the relief com- She hud always .snpported Dr Erlwawls in nis application for increased salary. Dr. Iklwards devoted the whole of/his time to the poor. He was not like a'parish doctor. HP did not-threaten to away if they did not give what he wanted; but. the Guardians did not, want him to thy wanted to- retain him: i His presence in poor was, perhaps, in many instances, better than the meii- I cine he gave. ThA. poor people all liked him, "and coild talk to him.. AN AMENDMENT. Ur, Ddw .Tames, having beard what had been said, was in favour4of the increase. ?if 1- Meredith, who he had against the majority, urged them not to be carried a-way by pure sentiment. If ?r?cfed. this increase would mak Dr. Edwards the best paid ofRccr in Wales. U vvi: "Qufsti?c.") "Give me the J figures, and I wiU withdraw." said Mr. Meredith. 'rlp- Dr. Edwards was' paid handsomely, and he did not believe in throwing away the ratepayers' money. He believed he was paid for good and honest work, but held their judgment should be governed, not by sentiment, but by market value, and thought of those who had to provide the money. Mr. James Thomas moved as an amend- ment that they first make inquiries of other Unions ae to the amount of salaries oaid. He thought the sum mehttened for hiring a motor car was much exaggerated. INCREASE GRANTED. The amendment was lost by 28 votes to 9. and the increase in salary afterwards carried without dissent.
