( Captain ^'atkins supported.' He had said long ago that he thought it would be wise to adn.it the to committees and exclude them from the cpa-ivC rlv Council meetings. (Laughter.) The result would be far funer jr. formation' for the ratepayers in the count* and -lar shorter oUfirf pilv meetings. -J Mr Beckwith bd a T■■ r:airi:sympathy with the object of the resolution. but. he thought ,ji might tenrT tc make Lu corexnitte-e meet- ings very much Ibrgcv :Ls.vzkUr.). They might haye such, a fearful lot of ItaJking that it might very much yrilito-to the advancement of business.- In any case he should-ask: the chair-mar r» nde that notice 'must'be given of the resolution.' They had net had time to- cbnpirW'the matter properly, and ought not to be rushed to a conclusion that evening. Har, hear.) Colone1 ^ores-Vv dliarrs supported this contention. Mr Bcuchtv said the chairman had coni- planed mq ny -"Iryies: of the bad attendance at committees. if the Press were admitted it migut tlld tv better On the suggv.oti.on .of the Chairman, Mr Mervy ■, agreed to give' notice of motion. -FaR-i rR, UXiON A D TRAYIv. •• x MOST >v'i±vA'VAG V I ?

The Chairman agreed that there was cause for cornph-iut There were some most fi infernal ii.struxneats," buc be would remind the Council that the children .did not sleep in the day time, and both in the Brynmawr and Ystradgynlais districts the blowing of motor horns was much more important than in an agricultural district. Mr James Morgan: T don't think anyone will object to the motor horn it is these fiendish instruments. Mr Gwynne Vaughan pleaded that all motor horns should have the same sound. (Hear, hear.) It would save a great nnmber of accidents. There were all sorts of sounds now, and people could not tell whether it was a motor or a bicycle that was coiliirlg." Some of the noises at present used were' "horrible. CVonel Jones-Williams pointed out that chjjdrei} had a dangerou^ habit of- riding beftind noisy carts, and unle.-s the passing motorist had a. veiv distinctive warning he' could not attract their attention. They oii' ht to be very caref in framing any new legislation, or they might have terrible I' accidents.. It would be a good thing to pass a by-law to prevant children riding at the hlCk of carts.
