In the House of Commons repiting to Colonel C. J. Lestrange Maloce, Mr. Cecil Harmsworth, Under Secretary for Foreign Affairs, said that the number of British officials paid by the British Government on the Foreign Office vote (diplomatic, consular, and commercial diplomatic services) and employed in Chila was 106. No British officials on the Foreign Office; active service list were employed in the service the Chinese Government or were paid by that govemment.

A NEW STEEL.
ARMSTRONG, WHITWORTH,
During the reading of a paper before the Newcastic Foremen and Draughts- meu's Association, Mr. H. H. Ach down, of Messrs. Armstrong, Whit- worth, announced the discovery of a new non-temper brittle steel by his firm.

ecame much worse.
Ashdown, was a problem which had
for the past 15 years been receiving the most serious attention of metal- lurgists the world over. During the great war, the greatest difficulty met with by the Air Board was this temper brittle disease in the alloy steels employed in the manufacture of crankshaita. This di case was the cau e of the scrapping of a tremendong amount of valuable material, and, iṛcidentally, of serious delay in the mann!acture of aeroplane engines.
The lecturer stated that the new "Vibrae" steel overshadowed any of the modern alloy stells in all its general, mechanical, and physical properties. The general alloy steels
were inconsistent and often, even CLder the most care/cl treat. ment, cnreliable on their impacti "properties. "Vibrac" steel had already been produced in great quantities, and under works cordi- tions and under any normal treatment it was impossible to make it temper brittle. This new steel now placed
the firm in an ideal position for the manufacture of all highly-stressed parts in machinery, euch as were required by aeroplanes, automobiles, railways, etc.
TREATMENT OP STEELS IN WORKS,
Mr. Ashdown dealt very explicitly with many of the difficulties met with in works practice in regard to the treatment and machining of steels. manufacturers Dow realised that in order that their customers should obtain the best results from material, they must impart the best informa tica possible concerning its treatment and general manipulation.
In conciation, the lecturer ventur- ed a lew words of warning regarding foreign competition, and illustrated excellent examples of forgings, cast- ing, and general machinery with which he was associated during his service in Japan. His final remarks were—” For us to regain our markets, we must search every aveLus for better, quicker, and cheaper produc- tion,"
The total output of the Kailan. Mining Administration's mines for the week ending March, amounted to "88.199 tons and the exles during the
period, to 66,642′′ toms."
