Workers and Wages.

At Barrowmore they have work to do, carefully apportioned to their strength; they have trade union rates of pay; and they have the assurance that, on the first sign of renewed trouble, skilled treat ment is at hand for them and maintenance for their families. The extension of this sort of treatment, Sir William Coates argued to-day in showing a party over Barrow- more, would be, in the long run, económical all round, because the afflicted man does not spread the disease as he tends to do when re- turned to the casual conditions of town life.

'Difficulties in communication have limited the activities of the work- crs, though a motor truck has been employed to carry grain from dis- tributing centra to places known to be in dire stress. The range of ground which can be covered by motor trucks in Kansu, however, is limited, since there are difficulties in procuring supplies of petrol and a sufficient supply to cover a return trip has to be carried.

THE POPE'S HEALTH.

MANY RUMOURS IN CIRCULATION."

Rome, August 9.In spite of the endeavours of official Vatacian circles to allay the prevailing anxiety for the Pontiff's health, the rumours that his condition is steadily becoming worse persist, and have been further stimulated by the report that when the architects presented the plans for the reconstruction of the Papal: villa at Gandolfo, His Holiness said that his successor would give the necessary instructions, adding that the architects would not have long to wait for that.

However, the Pope continues to work as hard as ever, holding audiences daily and conversing with the leading men of his entourage, although he is suffering severcly from his illness which is becoming more acute daily. To alleviate his condition his doctors proposed to perform an operation but the Pontiff refused.
