Sir John Findlay, the chair mar. of the Scottish National Housing Company, which under-1 took the construction and fan. agement of 3,000 houses for the Admiralty workmen at Rosyth, stated at the meeting of the Com- pany in Edinburgh that the Trea sury had given a definite assur ance that they desired that the

·Company should continue in ex- istence for the purpose for which

it

was originally constituted. Fourteen hundred houses bad still to be erected.

He criticised the planning of the scheme, which instead of

A

making suitable provision for the immediate future, subordinated everything to vision of & gigantic city reaching from Dan- fermline to the sea. Rosyth raight have been planned as a compact, self-contained unit, with adequate provision for or derly development and without prejudiceto its organic connection with Danfertoline. At present it was like a small snippet from a large ornamental pattern, a mean- ingless congeries of bits of roads that led nowhere. Such it was likely to remain for a long time to come, if not for ever.

an average cost of a little more than 17 runs.

Mark Seymour, North Fore- land, has decided to become a professional. He is a step-brother of Abe Mitchell.
