To camply with the General Bond- ed Warehouse Regulations Consignees must have a Revenus Officer in at- tendant's when dainaged dutiable goods are examined,
But Mr Laurence Walrond Innes, who received £120 for two major operations and an examination, said he thought a charge of £42 by Dr Albert Stanley Bradlaw, for seting as bis assistant at them, was "very EXCESSIVO,"
Judge P. L, E, Rawling held that it was reasonable, Ho allowed Dr Bendiaw's full claim of £52 10s, with costs, against the executors of the estate of Mr Frost Brock, a Plymouth business man and councillor, who died at 77, leaving £125,- 000.
In cross-examination Dr Brudlaw had said in poor patient was charged a nominal fen or nothing at all, whereas someone who could pay was charged üc- cording to his presumed ability ito
pay,
Mr Innes agreed in principle with Dr Bradlaw, mid Judgo Rawlins, and he wont on: "It is easy to my that it amounts to stinging the rich and providing for the poor at the expense of the rich. As a matter of fact, No claims will be admitted after that is the way in other profes- have left the steamer'ssions to which fees are calculat- godowns, and all goods remataing undelivered after 10th May, 1932, will be subject to rent,

Dr Bradlaw, as Mr Brock's medical adviser for many years was probably in a better position to Judgo the circumsances of the patient than was Mr Innes, who was called in as a specialist, "It may well be," the judge added, "that Mr Innes charged too little for the operation".

NEED FOR DRIVERS EYE TESTS
London.
Bad eyesight is one of the maln contributory causes to road accidents. So say the Asso- elation of Optical Practitioners in criticising the present laws on tests for drivers.
Medical examinations in this country, they 150y, PTO not nearly so exacting as those : Int the United States, New Zealand Australia, The Highway Codo mokes no specific men- tion of faulty eyesight as an obstacle to drivers.

Now is any
real emphasis apparent in the licence renewal form, which requires an ́oppil~~ cant only to verity, that he or she can see a number plate clearly at 25 yards. The Assó- elation consider. that
the
standard required to pass this test a very low.
Spectacles may be worn to pass it; but there is no provi- slon, they say, that the, driver must wear glasses always.
..
A further point is that many people can, by screwing up their eyes or concentrating deeply, obtain good enough viston for a limited time--hút ong result of this is a tendency to fall asleep at the wliecl.
The Association suggest that drivers in' opcidents thouki be required to furnish, a compro» hensive report on their `øyca,
