ABERDARE CHAMBER OF TRADE
ABERDARE CHAMBER OF TRADE 1 he monthly meeting was held on n ednesday evening at Miles' Restaur- ant, Mr. Morgan Watkins presiding. Christmas Holidays.-This question was discussed at length. Mr. J Evans moved, and*Mr. J. M. Evans seconded, that shopkeepers he recom- mended to close on Thursday. Friday and Saturday.—The Chairman asked Tr rp 5 igroeers wcre Jikely to do?— j « that it wouid lye cry difficult. He added jocularly that grocers did not make their money so easy as other tradesmen.-Mr. llltyd Williams We are not so avaricious iaii you are. (Laughter.)—The Chairman said the difficulty he felt was that they i could not legislate for the grocers. He | was not speaking as a grocer now.— i Mr. Williams: You have closed before. ] --Ifr. Lloyd: There would be no pay: on Friday or Saturday.—Mr. T. Evans j did not think the grocers would close i for three davs.-The motion was ulti- Hiately carried. '< Taxation.—The Chairman referred to the proposed new method of taxation, and said that Cardiff and Mertlivr j were co-operating in the matter. The proposal was that all land, whether oc- j eupied or not, should he taxed on a much higher rate. If that was done the load of the present heavy ratepayer j would be considerably lightened. Mr Pugh said the proposal was to tax the land on its capital value.—Mr T. LIoyrl remarked that the income tax peopk had already taken action in the mat- j ter.—Mr. John Hopkins: That is in thej case of land close to the town. Mr. Lloyd: I believe it applies to all land. —The Chairman said he had been very much 'tickled' with Mr.' Stonelake's i views on the subject of rates. The I Council had invited tenders for loans to carry out the Housing Scheme, but: j the response was a very pom; one. i>anks and the wealthy Insurance Com- panies had refused to touch it. Where, therefore, was the Council to get the necessary money There would havej to be a limit to the payment on the part of the ratepayers. Mr. i iaiiis said that as yet the masses I had not felt the pinch of the inereas- '• ing rates. When they did there would 1 be a revolt.—Mr. John Hopkins Ten-! ants of small houses are already begin- 1 ning to kick.—After further discussion the matter dropped. > Auditor.—Mr. T. Lloyd moved, and ] Mr. J. M. Evans seconded the ve,; election of Mr. T. D. Williams as: auditor.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR. PlTI-IEAD-BATHS. Sir,—In the Aberdare Leader of Nov. 22 'lAn Old Miner" holds forth on pithead baths. There is one thing I about it. he signs himself correct, for lie must be old to have those ideas to- day. As to. giving the men time to change, surely that should not prove difficult, and is he not aware what a boon pit head baths would he to his women folk., Re that varn about using the bate-room to store dirty clothing and the like, I seem to have heard that before. What self-respect- ing miner likes to be about railway stations in his dirty clothes? All the young miners of Wales are going to do away with the antiquated methods of our fathers, and think a little for ourselves; and 1 for one hope that as soon as things settle down, seeing miners going home in dirty clothes will be a thing of tile past. -Voui-s, etc., A.

COST OF PRINTINC.
COST OF PRINTINC. Owing to pulp trouble, we are threat- ened with an immediate advance in the price of paper. Also negotiations have been proceeding for some time between I the Master Printers' Federation and the ¡ Newspaper Society and the Typograph- ical Association with reference to a gen- ¡ eral advance of wages. At the final con- feretice held a fortnight ago, it was de- cided to recommend an increase of 7s. 6d. per week to all members. This brings printers' wages up, to about 125 per cent, above the pre-war rate. The new rate above the pre-war rate. The new rate came into operation last week. Conse- ¡ quently our patrons must be prepared for a slight increase in the price of printing and newspaper advertisements.
