THE DOWNFALL OF TURKEY. I
THE DOWNFALL OF TURKEY. I Turkey, by joining arms with Germany, is rushing blindly to its doom. The Allies 1 desired that Turkey should remain neutral I and have resisted every provocation which has | been offered to induce them to declare war 1 against her. The Turks have commenced the | war without any aggression by the Allies. 1 No doubt the Goshen will give the Russian 1 Fleet some hard knocks, and the German 1 officers and sailors who have been transported | from the High Seas Fleet in the Kiel Canal to | stiffen the morale of the Turkish Fleet will do | its utmost. But this long-expected stroke by | Germany will prove as futile as the other I explosion which has gone off in South Africa. | The forces which Turkey has massed under 1 German officers on the Egyptian frontier will i find that our tioops are quite ready for them, 1 while the Russians are well prepared for any 1 mischief in the Caucasus. The projected Islamic revolt against Britain and France has 1 been a fiasco. 1 The Moslems of India are pressing men and | money on the British Government Tunis and I Algeria are quiet and the German intriguers 1 who have keen trying to rouse sedition in I Morocco have been rounded up by the French. | While there is no sign of a Moslem attack | on the Allies it is clear that the entrance of 1 Turkey will bring Greece and probably Italy 1 and Houmania into the field. The war is | dragging one nation after another into its I vortex, Portugal yesterday, Turkey today, | Greece tomorrow, others the day after, and when the inundation has subsided there will be some old landmarks missing. One of them will be the Sublime Porte. —
. " BUMBLEDOM AND RECRUITING."…
BUMBLEDOM AND RECRUITING." I Read Extracts from G.L B. Circulars. I The following statement was made at the Corwen Board of Guardians, on Friday last, by the Relieving Officer, in reply to the accus- ations made against the Board by Mr. J. Salusbury Roberts in his letter headed "BUMBLEDOM AND RECRUITING" which appeared in the Adsain on September 29th The following is a short history of this case Ann Phillips has been in receipt of Out- relief for about 3 years, and has been receiving during that period 2/6 weekly. One of the reasons for her chargeability was that her son Peter was a very small wage-earner, and was only able to allow her a few shillings weekly. Peter went to the war, and she then stated that she was never allowed less than 10/- weekly by him, and that he now intended allowing her more than 3/6 weekly, the com- pulsory allotment out of his soldier's pay. About the beginning of September she received £ 2 bounty, presumably from the War Office. On the 10th September, at her request, I brought her case before the Relief Committee, and her relief was then increased to 5/- weekly. Her weekly income was then stated to be Out-relief 2/6 From son 3/6 and looking after Bryngw) n house 2/6 other income about 1/ bhe suffers from deffective eyesight, and is not able tc earn much. At the request of the Board, after the receipt of the circular of the L.G.B. which I have already quoted from, the local Relief Committee was supplied with a list of paupers in the six parishes, and upon hearing from Ann Phillips that she was receiving assistance from the fund, I called upon Mr. Lloyd John, the I Secretary, and he expressed regret that the I I relief had been given by his Managing Clerk in error. On the 14th September I was sent for to his | office to see Hon. Mrs. Wynn, who informed | me that as in their opinion the Guardians bad not adequately relieved the case, the Soldiers' 1 and Sailors' Families Association insisted upon i continuing to do so. I pointed out to her the | overlapping that was taking place, and stat d | that I would again bring the matter before | my Bo ird. This was done on the 25th Sept., 1 and the Relief Committee of the Board care- 1 fully considered the matter, and in view of the | fact that the Association insisted upon contin- 1 uing to relieve, and in order to avoid further 1 overlapping, resolved that the case be left in 1 the hands of the Association to relieve.
