This paper presents two tentative models of the use of a notional metal in a country like Britian, which have been developed using the System Dynamics modelling method. Computer simulations have been carried out using one of the models. These show the effect on the recycling of the notional metal of a wide range of possible future values of world market price and demand for the metal.

IT is certainly fitting and proper that the shortage of engineers should be the topic of frequent editorials in the professional magazine of mining engineers, but many of you are directly concerned with another shortage; namely, the shortage of skilled miners. It is often said that the military organization is built around the noncommissioned officer and it is similarly true that the mining organization depends for its production on the skilled miner-the NCO of the mining industry.

J. W. RICHARDS, South Bethlehem, Pa.-I think that the diagrammatic results can be much more clearly set forth if they are plotted as follows: The present diagram, shown on page 1227 of Mr. Jeffries' paper, Logarithm of Per cent of Maximum Wattage Used plots the variation of wattage with temperature in a very inconvenient and uncertain-way. If, however, you plot as abscissas the logarithms of the wattage, you get very nearly a straight line, so that you can interpolate the values with much greater accuracy than you can by using
