Months and even years in lot, cases, of agonising suspense on the pat of thousands of human beings has bea dissipated by one master stroke of amaib diplomacy, and the spell is broken! fa last something of a productive natonl to be launched, not by the highly-raij Government, but by the new Xmmm. ment Board. Some one is responsibls & a prodigious brain-wave! Let, us all hop that the application of this new policy will be the direct antithesis of everything that has so far been attempted by tin party that has held the reins (and fc whip) for three years too long.

Let us hope that when % get there those who are workers will U recognised as such; and, in the fnine jig! time, classified .according to merit, td put on piecewvrL wherever possible.
