STANDING JOINT COMMITTEES Cardiganshire A quarterly meeting of the Cardiganshire Stand- ing Joint Committee was held at the Town Lampeter, on Thursday, April 8th, Mr. R. E. Jones, Borth, presiding. The Clerk read a communication from the Home Office with regard to the Criminal Admiaistrarion Act, and suggested the Committee should draw up a uniform scale of fees for justices' clerks. Mr. Willis Bund gave notice that he would prcpose scale of fees at the next meeting, and also a scale of salaries for the clerks. The Finance Committee recommended that the services of Sergt.-Major Fear, Aberystwyth, be con- tinued for the purpose of drilling special constables. The Chairman said the training had answered its purpose. The Chief Constables stated that 283 special constables had joined the Army. He had a list of all -the men, and ho ventured to state that no county in England or Wales could show propor- tionately a better result than Cardiganshire. The recommendation was adopted. The Chief Constable reported that the justices of eight out of the eleven petty sessional divisions in the county had made order; under the power con- ferred upon them by the Intoxicating Liquor Act, 1914, and there was reason to believe that the justices of the remaining divisions would take simi- lar action at an early date. The Finance Committee's report showed that Meesrft. Huggins, Son and Co., Ltd., Bristol, who hold the contract for supplying the police clothing, had -written stating that they were unable to obtain the cloth, and would not be able to do so for another six weeks owing to the enormous demand made upon them by the Government. The Committee had instructed the Chief Con- stable to write to the firm to ask when they would be in a, position to supply the clothing. The Chief Constable reported that the following transfers took place on February 3rd, viz. :-P.S. Dd. Jones, Talybont to Tregaron; P.S. Dl. Thomas, Llanbadarn to Talybont; P.C. Daniel T. Richards, Llanddewibrefi1 to Llanbadarn; P.C. Jenkin Rich- ards, Lampeter to Llanddewibrefi; P.C. Owen Jones, Aberystwyth to Lampeter. Carmarthenshire POLICE AND WAR BONUS. The annual meeting of the Carmarthenahire Standing Joint Committee was held at the County Offioes, Carmarthen, on Tuesday, when, on the motion of Mr. F. R. Nevill, Llanelly, Mr. F. Dud. ley Williams-Drummond was elected chairman. The mover pointed out that Mr. Drummond had done the work well in the past, and he was a man on the spot and a member of the County Council. Acknowledging the honour done him, Mr. Drum- mond thanked the members for the consideration shown him when he previously occupied the chair. He hoped to do his best to carry out the duties to their satisfaction. On the motion of the Chairman, seconded by Lieut.-General Sir James Hills-Johnes, V.O., G.C.B., a vote of thanks was passed to the retiring chairman, Mr. James Phillips, St. Clears. Returning thanks, Mr. Phillips said they all felt proud of their police force, especially in the present national crisis. They had heard a great deal about the treatment meted out to alien enemies in other parts of the country, but he was proud to think that so far as Carmarthenshire was concerned the police had dealt with them all right. Mr. W. J. Williams, Brynamman, asked if the question of granting war bonus to the police had been considered by the Finance Committee. The Chairman said certain separation allowances had been made which would be refunded by the Government. Twenty-five extra policemen had been appointed as the result of the granting of one day's rest in seven, and expenditure had been in. curred in regard to them. The Finance Committee had not considered the question of war bonus. Mr. J. Simlett, Llanelly, said he did not think Carmarthenshire should be behind Glamorgan and other counties where war bonuses had been granted. Mr. W. J. Williams said he was surprised that the Chief Constable's report contained no reference about war bonus for the police. Inoreases had been granted all over the county, and the pay of the police in the lower grades was very small. Replying to Mr. Williams, the Chief Constable stated that an application for war bonus had not been made by the police. The police at Llanelly had held a meeting and had consulted the police in the other divisions. It was the intention about 18 months' ago to make application for an increased scale of pay, but, for different reasons it was de- ferred, and then the war broke out, and the police did not think it advisable, under the circumstances, to submit the application. Since they had held a meeting to consider the question of war bonus. No doubt the men suffered from the increased cost of living, but at the same time they had a reluctance in asking for a bonus, having regard to the fact that everybody was suffering more or less from high prices, etc. For that reason the matter was not brought forward.. No doubt many of the men found it hard to make both ends meet. Mr. Williams said he thought the explanation would satisfy all. Mr. J. Simlett advocated granting a war bonus. Mr. H. Jones-Thomas objected to anything being done in the matter without an application. The explanation of the Chief Constable reflected great credit on the patriotism of the police force. The Chief Constable applied for authority to eia, gage counsel to support a conviction by the Am- manford Court on a charge of aiding and abetting a refreshment housekeeper in opening his premises on Sunday contrary to the Sunday Observance Act. A case had been applied, and stated by the Justices for the opinion of the High Court, and 30 similar charges were held over pending the decision. Lieut.-General Sir James Hills-Johnes said it was very queer that all these people did not observe Sunday. Mr. A. E. DuBuisson explained that Sunday trading prosecutions at Ammanford had been going on for about eight years, and recently a great num- ber of men had been frequenting the refreshment house as customers, knowing perfectly well that they were assisting the man to break the law, ar.d the police thought it advisable to prosecute them as aiders and abetters. The point had not yet been settled, and he thought the police should be allowed counsel. Ti was agreed that counsel be engaged. In his quarterly report, the Chief Constable stated that criminal and other offences dealt with by the magistrates showed a decrease of 89 as compared with the corresponding quarter of last year, the figures being 856 as agair.st 945. Drunkenness showed a decrease of 79. and Sunday Trading an in- crease of 100. Indictable offences numbered 141,- an increase of 54. The number of alien enemies at present in the connty was 65. Notices of resigna- tion had been received from Inspector Evans (St. Clears) and Constable David Evans, the former having served 45 years and the latter 26 years' faithful and efficient service. It was decided to allow the maximum superannua- tion to these officers. j ♦
TRALLWNG (BRECONSHIRE)
TRALLWNG (BRECONSHIRE) CHURCH RESTORATION.—The parishioners of Trall- wng and their friends have been busily engaged for the last 10 months or so in renovating and painting their Parish Church. Miss Elizabeth A. Williams, one of the eminent ladies of Penpont, presented the church with a beautiful new frontal, super-frontal, and covering for the super-altar. The parishioners and few friends of the late vicar availed themselves of the opportunity to put something in the renova- ted edifice to perpetuate his memory and presented the church with a handsome set of altar brasses, altar desk, credence table and credence Patin. On the face of the altar cross; is the following inscrip- tion :—" To the Glory of God and in loving memory of the Rev. John Williams, vicar of Trallwng for 42 years. Died January 26th, 1914." Altar brasses, desk, credence table and Credence Patin presented by parishioners and friends, Easter. 1915." In the unavoidable absence of the Archdeacon, who is with the troops at Aden, the present Vicar dedicated the new altar cover and new altar furniture to the ser- vice of God on Sunday morning before the second celebration. All were glad to see the aged widow and four of the children present at the dedication service. The church was nicely decorated for the feast by ladies of the church, and the sacred edifice looked beautiful. Mrs. Dobill kindly procured special flowers for the altar vases.

CARMARTHEN TOWN COUNCIL
CARMARTHEN TOWN COUNCIL EFFORTS TO GET MORE TROOPS. The monthly meeting of the Carmarthen Town Council was held at the Town Hail on Tuesday night, the Mayor (Mr. John Lewis) presiding. The Clerk read a letter from Mr. Finglah, the borough surveyor, stating that he was now able to get about a little with the help of a pair of crutches, and that he hoped to be able to attend the offioes next week. Head Constable Mayall reported that an outbreak of swine fever had occurred at the Joint Counties' Mental Hospital, and a notice had been served on the Superintendent. The pigs had been slaughtered. Replying to Mr. John Lloyd, the Head Constable stated that there was no order that dealers taking pigs into the market should have a certificate. Mr. Lloyd-It used to be the custom to have a certificate as you enter the market. Those who sell pigs outside the market get scot free. I do not think it is fair. Head Constable Mayall said no pig could leave the market without a license being granted by the I police in respect of it, but pigs could be taken in without a lioense. Mr. W. Spurrell-There is every enoouragement under the system for dealers not to go into the markeb. Mr. Lloyd-Of course. The Mayor—I do not see that we have any remedy for it. Mr. Lloyd said that people even sold pigs outside the market gate, and then cleared away without a lioense. Mr. L. D. Thomas said that on Saturday mornings people sent pigs to various public-houses in order to evade the Order. The Head Constable-And many shopkeepers en- courage them by buying their goods from them. Of I course, I am not referring to you personally, I am speaking generally. The Clerk reported that, as directed, he wrote to Lieut.-General Sir James Hills-Johns and General Sir Henry Mackinnon to ascertain if, when the 4th Welsh left Carmarthen, as presumed they would send more military to Carmarthen in their place. Sir James Hills-Johnes had replied, stating that he was sending on the letter to the officer commanding strongly supporting the Council's application. Gen. Sir Henry Mackinnon wrote stating that it was very probable that the 4th Welsh would be removed from Carmarthen at an early date and placed under I canvas as the billeting season was about to close. It was impossible to say whether military exigencies would necessitate more troops being stationed at j Carmarthen or not. A letter to Sir James Hills- I Johnes, from headquarters at Chester, stated: We will do all we can for Carmarthen, which I person- ally look upon as a very good training place on account of the railway facilities. The Mayor said Col. Lort Phillips had told him that perhaps in a fortnight, the military would be removed, but that in any case about 600 would be sent to Carmarthen in their plaoe. The Clerk read a letter from the Drill Hall Fund Committee, stating that the Mayor of Carmarthen for the time being would be ex-officio representative trustee, and suggesting that an additional trustee be elected on the committee by the Town Council. The Mayor said he told the committee at its meeting last Saturday that he thought Carmarthen were entitled to two extra representatives, and it was agreed that the town should have four repre- sentatives. Three had been appointed—the Mayor for the time being, Capt. de Rees, and Mr. Colby Evans. Another bad to be elected. Sir James Hills-Johnes and Major Dowdeswell were the other two members of the committee as representing' the County Territorial Force Association. Mr. H. S. Holmes was elected on the committee as additional representative. A petition was received signed by over two-thirds of the ironmongers of the town asking the Council to grant them a closing order under the Shops Act to close their shops at one o'clock on Thursdays, 9 on Saturday, and 7 on other days.—The applica- tion was agreed to. 10
