A large party of members of the Institution of Structural Engineers availed themselves of the kind invitation of Messrs. H. Young & Co., of Nine Elms Ironworks; Mr. W.E. Trent, F.S.I., the Architect, and Messrs. McLaughlin and Harvey, the contractors; to visit the site between Vauxhall Bridge Road and Wilton Road, of the New Victoria. Super Cinema now in course of erection.

The object of this paper is to draw the attention of members of this Institution to some of the difficulties which have developed in the application of the L.C.C. General Powers Acts 1909 and 1923. W.C. Cocking

The paper bearing the above title, which appeared in “The Structural Engineer” for October was read at the meeting of the Institution of Structural Engineers held on October 24, at 10, Upper Belgrave Street, S.W.1, the chair being taken, in the absence of the President, Colonel Moncrieff, by Mr. S. Bybancler (Member of Council). The discussion which ensued was adjourned to Thursday, November 7, when it was again resumed under the chairmanship of Mr. Bylander. The proceedings of both dates are reported below. Owing to limitations of space it has not been found possible to publish the discussion in extenso, while, for the same reason, it, has been found necessary considerably to condense the remarks made by individual speakers who took part in that discussion.
