I N future, care would be needed in accepting operators for membership, said Mr. Joseph Wallis, chairman of the North-Eastern Division of the C.M.U.A., in his review of the year, at the annual meeting of the division. He felt sure, however, that many undesirable operators, who were jeopardizing the industry, would ultimately go out of business.
Referring to the division's finances, Mr. Wallis said that the surplus ot £548 on the year's working was gratifying, but it might not be possible always to make a surplus.
