When the resolution moved by Dr. A T. Jones | (Mountain Ash)—a member pro- tested that the meeting should not discuss political questions.
The chairman, Mr. H. S. Souttar, ruled that this was not a political issue.

Dr. Elizabeth Gusson (Bristol) said It was a great pity the As- sociation had not taken a more active part in combating the whole subject of war.
Masks For Public
The Earl of Feversham (Lori)-] in-Waiting) told the House of Lords recently that the Govern- ment was perfecting a gas res- pirator which would adequately protect the public.
Such a respirator, in addition to the measures of the people themselves, would help to make them proof against gas attack.
