MINERS' DÉSIRE FOR STABILITY. Mr. Frank Hodges urged that it was necessary not to lose sight of the fact that other countries had found they possessed Coal. Some day Europe would not be able to sell a single ton of coal beyond the Suez Canal. They had also to take into account the increasing use of oil.

At the end of the first year there was an overdraft at the bank of £1,800,000, and interest on this works out at about £90,000 a year. There also has to be reckoned the cost of maintaining Wem bley in the period last winter during

Exhibition has paid its way.

Nothing has yet been decided as to the position of the guarantors, but it is suggested that before the asects are realized, the guarantors will be asked to make up the deficit. After the assets have been disposed of, any available surplus would then be returned to the guarantora. The impression conveyed by the deputation to the Prime Minister was that the majority of the guarantors are in favour of continuing a portion of Wembley as an Empire resort, but this is a matter on which the Dominions would doubtless have to be consulted. On the other hand, thers ara, a certain number of the guarantors who feel that the assets should be realized without fur- ther delay. No definite steps are to be taken until the Prime Minister has had an opportunity of announcing the views of the Government.
