Following the Council, a meet- ing of the Finance Committee was held, the Colonial Secretary pre- siding.

He said: I would like to ask for information in respect of items 165, 21, 27, and 28, in which it states that progress has been slower than expected and only

a certain amount of work has been possible to be done. I do not know whether you can give us any information why pro- gress has been so slow in regard to these items. We all know that the Public Works Depart ment have a lot of work on hand and a number of big schemes. Would it not be possible to hand out some of these smaller matters to outside firma in this Colony 46 has been done in the

years, for instance, in the case of the Post Ofee? Has slow pro- press been due to the fact that the Public Works Department are so much over-worked?

Definition of Hawker. The Attorney General moved the first reading of a Bill tituled "An Ordinance to Amend the Miscellaneous Licences Or- dinance, 1933," He said: The definition of hawker under Section 2 of the Miscellaneous Licences Ordinance, 1933, Ordinance 25, of 1933, has been found not sufficiently wide, since it does not include a peddler who boards only one particular ship in the harbour 10 hawk. Although under the aame Section, a ship may be a place, a harbour peddler has to move from place to place before he brings himself within In the case of 185, I think this is the definition.

With regard to 21 the contrar- tor's progress was so slow that we had to get another contractor and it took a considerable amount of time changing over.

lumpy, too-thick soup is far from appetizing.

Toast sticks, croutons, tiny mar-| ble-like dumplings, crisp crackers, thin "Melbo" chips and any crisp hit of breadstuff add interest ns] well as food value to the plate of soup.
