GENERAL WORKERS' UNION.
GENERAL WORKERS' UNION. T>o fifth annual banquet of the local i>r;i ;ifh of the General Workers' Union v,<is held on Thursday evening at the King's Head, Aberaman. Host and Hostess Dan Hughes catered. The tables were laid by Mrs. Beddoe, Thorn Ki'tel, Abercynon. The waiters were: Mrs. Thomas and Miss Thomas, Aber- aman; Mrs. Davies, Abercynon; Miss Meredith, Mrs. Davies and Mrs. Evans, Aberaman; Messrs. William Finn, T. M. Lloyd and William Daniels. After the supper a concert and presentation meet- ing took place, Mr. W. Victor Morgan, District Secretary, presiding, supported by Mr. C. B. Stanton. M.P., Dr. Hill, Aberaman; Messrs. Arthur Norton, Gomer Rosser. chairman of the local branch, and R. M. Evans, local secre- tary. The chairman read letters re- gretting inability to attend from Mr. J. R Clynes, M.P., President of the Union; Mr. Will Thorne, M.P., General Secretary, who is one of the deputation sent by the Government to Petrograd to convey to the new Russian Government the greetings of the British and French democracy, and where he is still de- tained; Henry Pickard, General Or- ganiser. Scotland, and Harry Morris, President of the District. He (the chairman) was pleased to be present at the fifth annual supper, but regretted the absence of Mr. Will Thorne. He hoped when Thorne would return that we should hear of his experience of Free Russia, and get some lessons on a Free England. The arrangements for the taking over of Mr. Ben Tillet and the 70.000 members are about complete, and this will now raise the membership of the General Workers' Union to 270,000. A song was given by Mr. G. D. Phillips. Selection by Crawford, John- son and Brewer, instrumentalists. Duet, Harry Zaal and friend. Mr. C. B. Stanton, M.P., who was given a rousing reception, expressed his regret at the absence of Mr. Will Thorne, M.P., of whom they had every reason to be proud, and who had con- veyed to Russia the true feeling of the real labour Party in this country. Although war was raging we were not yet down-hearted, and whilst we had not yet mastered the Huns and their devilish submarine campaign, there was no cause for being disheartened, because we had shown our superiority with the "contemptible little Army on land, and this was due in no small measure to the unswerving loyalty of all true Trade Unionists in this coun- try. The progress of the Allies had amazed the whole world. The or- ganisation of the General Workers' Union was to protect the interests of its members, and he appealed to all non- unionists to play the game by joining the Union. The war would prove a great awakening and would teach the workers that as British Trade Unionists they would serve themselves best by being loyal and true to their Mother- land. Referring to the new tax on tobacco Mr. -Stanton did not believe that Mr. Bonar Law had been fair, as the tax would only enable the manu- facturers to pile up their illgotten profits. He assured the audience that he would raise the matter in the House. (Cheers.) Comic songs were sung by Messrs. David Lewis and Tom Jenkins. Selection by a Russian Troupe of Singers and Dancers. The presentation to the local branch secretary, Mr. R. M. Evans, followed. Mr. Gomer Rosser, chairman of the branch, spoke on behalf of the presentation com- mittee, and testified to the valuable services rendered by the secretary to the branch locally and the organisation in general during' his term of office. Mr. Evans was not resigning from office. Messrs. George Hobbs and Percy Price, members of the Presentation Committee,, spoke. Mr. C. B. Stanton spoke of his connection with Mr. Evans, and referred to the assistance given him in his recent election. Mr. Victor Morgan made the pre- sentation on behalf of the branch of a roll top desk, suitably inscribed. He had found the recipient one of the best of secretaries. He bad not only ren- dered good services to his branch but to the whole district of the General Work- ers, whom he is now serving as a mem- ber on the Executive Committee of the District. He was pleased to hand Mr. Evans the gift which was a recognition of the local members' appreciation of his services.—Mr. Evans responded thankfully. He said that in spite of all opposition they still remained the strong- est Mechancal Branch throughout the South Wales coalfield. Daily Jones then sang. Mr. Arthur Norton, general manager Grand Theatre, was then presented with a gold wrist watch by a few of his friends. Mr. C. B. Stanton, who made the presenta- tion, said that all charitable causes had secured Mr. Norton's support.- Mr. J. Palmer (Chairman of the War Heroes' Fund) and Atr. J. H. Jones also spoke.—Mr. Norton briefly responded.— Thanks to the chairman and artistes was proposed by Sir Roger Thomas, R.A.O.B.—A vote of thanks to the Host and Hostess was moved by Mr. Gomer Rosser, seconded by Mr. George Hobbs.

Skewen, was the preacher at Carmel English Baptist Church on Sun- day. In the morning he addressed the children on "Trust," taking as his text Acts 17. 25. Afterwards he preached from Luke 8. 39. What we wanted in these days above all things, he emphasised, was evidence of God, not in creed as much as in character. The age wanted personal testimony. Some men, when asked to give testimony at a church meeting, would answer, I have nothing to say." That was a con- temptible position to be in, especially in these davs when we ought to haye so much to say. The silence of Christian people had cursed the world.
