THE "GO-SLOW" POLICY. r rilE Government at present is up against a difficult problem in regard to the coal output. 'Die miners throughout the Dominion have apparently adopted the "go-slow" policy, and in some of the principal mines production has been reduced by at least a third, in spite of the fact that the same number of men is employed. All users of coal are expecting a shortage of supplies, and increased cost, and some firms are taking steps to provide substitutes in case of a complete stoppage. The gas and electric light companies are always the first to feel the effect of any interruption in the coal supply, as was the case in Sydney recently when the city was in darkness for several nights. In the event of a coal strike in New Zealand many country people would be better off ao far as house and shop lighting is concerned than the city dwellers, as during ti.e past years over 5000 country homes and stores have been fitted vith "Wizard Lighting systems. The ''Wizard" Lighl is being generally adopted for house and store lighting in all country districts, and the agents find it difficult to keep pace with the demand. The light is cheaper, cleaner and better in quality than coal gas, and users are independent of labor troubles. The lamps produce gas from a mixture of 97 per cent, of air and 3 per cent, benzine vapor, and provided a case of benzine is kept in reserve, labor troubles cannot interfere with the owner of a "Wizard" Plant, so far as his house or store lighting is concerned. Each "Wizard" lamp gives three hundred candle power light, is lit with a match, kept clean with a special automatic needle, and the running cost per week for a plant of, say, four lights, is about one shilling. All plants are guaranijed for 5 years and the price of a 2-point plant is now £l7, each additional lamp £3 17s 6d. Gas rings £3 3s.
