WELSH NAVAL RESERVE. In accordance with arrangements made a few days ago, the President of the Board of Trade (Mr Lloyd-George) and other Welsh members present at Carnarvon, received on Tuesday, a deputation representing various public bodies in support of a protest against the proposal of the Admiralty to abolish the Naval Reserve stations in Wales. Mr. Lloyd-George said that the question should be treated as a Welsh case. It was in his opinion, monstrous that the Government should think of removing from Wales the largest of its batteries, to which were attached 800 men, while permitting batteries to remain in other parts of the country. Sir Alfred Thomas expressed his deepest sympathy with the deputation. He anticipated no difficulty in having the whole of the Welsh members to wait upon the Admiralty. It was announced by the town-clerk that the Admiralty had intimated their willingness to receive a deputation after the general election. In the meantime it was resolved to prepare a full statement of the case.
