The claim was for damages suf- fered by the Coal Workers' Asso- clation, a guild of ordinary and numbering 555, dally members who paid $413 as dues, but who refused to pay during the period of time that a watchman was on the premises

Mr. Hugh-Jones submitted that the association was not a legal entity and, therefore, could not sue in its name.
Mr. Remedios contended that Ha Kim was also suing, and question- ed the term of legal entity. If, he asked, a firm could sue in its own name, why could not an association? He added that any one could come into Court as a body and seek re- dress.
His Lordship ruled in favour of Mr. Hugh-Jones and Mr. Remedios asked leave to amend the writ. He said that he would strike out the Coal Workers Association and 1 leave in only the name of Ha Kim. as the chairman of the Associa- tion, and other members as plain tiffa

sult for damages suffered only by Ha Kim.

of action and that the present proceedings be dismissed.
His Lordship sald that the action was dismissed as regards the firal defendant, and an order for non- suit would be placed against the
defendant, second
while costs
would be awarded for plaintiff on
both.

(Continued, from (Page":1) Arrangements have already beeri made, in fact, for a member of the Council to discuss this subject with two of the leading British aim companies.
Glasgow As It Was, And Is Now
Another scheme already in con- templation is the making of a dim of Glasgow, composed of ex- tracts from newsreels of the last 30 years.
Mr. Grierson's other suggestion -creation of a £20,000 fund for documentaries--has been quickly seized on as a practical contribu- tion to the proposals for "show- ing" Scotlarid 'more prominently before and at the time of the' Ex- hibition. The Scottish Film Coun- cil, it is understood, will lose no time in taking into consideration the practicability of the proposal. Meantime, Mr. Norman Wilson, chairman of the Edinburgh Film Guild, states- "
"Brotland has no film industry to speak of, but producers in this country owe a great deal to the revenue produced from the cine- mas of Scotland, and to the talents and brains which Scotsmen have contributed to establishing the prosperity of the British Blm in- dustry.
"For these reasons alone, apart from the publicity and prestige which would résuit from present- tug ambitiously conceived alms at it should not be the Exhibition.

Mr. Wilson adds that so far as
collecting the £20.000 is concern- ed, he feels confident the Scottish Film, Council and the Alzi guilds--- "Whose object is to encourage the development of film art in Scot
land generally, and to support the production in Scotland of films of merit" would give wholehearted support.
