Besides such delay and inconvenience both to solicitors and the Registry officials, such rejections may involve practitioners in serious liability to their clients, inasmuch as, in the interval between the rejection of the Dealing and its re-lodgment in proper form, their clients may lose priority on the Register, or be obliged to take land subject to a new charge or burden owing to the lodgment arid registration of another dealing creating such charge or burden before the relodgment of the rejected Dealing when perfected. Practitioners are accordingly requested to have regard to the several instructions in the Memor andum and to the appropriate Statutory Rules when preparing documents for registration.

THE attention of solicitors is directed to the above rules which were made on 22nd June, 1945. The new rules enable District Justices to order that service of civil processes may be effected either by registered or ordinary prepaid post, if satisfied that none of the modes of service prescribed by Rule 74 of the District Court Rules, 1926, is reasonably practicable.

RESTRICTIONS OF RENTS AMENDMENT ORDER

BY Emergency Powers (No. 313) Order, 1944 (Amendment) Order, 1945, the Government has amended the Emergency Powers (No. 313) Order, 1944, which came into operation on 8th February, 1944, and brought under control premises not already controlled by the Increase of Rent Acts. Copies of the amending Order are not yet available but it is understood that they will be on sale at an early date at the Government Publications Office, College Street, Dublin. FUNDS IN COURT. THE Registrar of Wards in Court has published a notice directing the attention of Committees of estates of Wards of Court and Guardians of Fortunes of Minors to the necessity of revising the lists of investments in which their Wards are interested. The notice directs particular attention to short-dated trustee stocks which at present stand above par. In the case of such stocks it is reasonable to expect a loss of capital and income based on present values at the redemption dates.
