Michae! who fell in the naVal action off Jutland, and with Mr J. E. Moore Gwyn on the death of his daugh- ter. Mrs Cecil Gi!hertson. of Abercrave. The Chairman regretted to say that a very old mem- ber of the council had recently passed away, Mr James. of Llangrwyney. who had served the council for an un- interrupted period of something tike twenty years. They were all very sorry to hear of his death, and he moved a vote of sympathy with his relatives. Mr Beckwith, in seconding, said the late Mr James brought a very high standard to public duties. He was an extremely useful public man, especiaNy in the Crick- howeH district, and up to the last he devoted himself to pubUc work. They regretted his loss very much. Kitted in Action. I The Chairman said he regretted to inform members of the death in action in France of the eldest son of Mr J. Williams-Vaughan. who was for a long period of years a very vatuaMe member of that council and who had been their for a number of years. Qx moved a vote of condolence with him in the lo&s of his so Honn. .R. C. Devereux, m .secondi.ng the vote, sai.d this was an instance of a man going to the front when he need not have done so. It was a special instance of hraverv. About two years ago Mr Williams-Vaughan had a very serious accident, his life being despaired of for a long time, and which, when he recovered, left his tegs. which had both been fractured, in a very weak condition. He would not have had any dimculty in per- suading the Medical Board not to pass him for active service. But he was one of those who would not avail himself of any excuse for not fighting for his country. for which he had now given his life. He was wounded in the face with shrapnel when serving his gun. but de- clined to have his wounds attended to, and continued to shoot and lost his life in sticking to his gun. His Commanding Omeer wrote that the gallant young omcer was instrumental In checking the advance of the Ger- mans. The whole of his military career was an example of true British pluck. (Hear. hear.) The motion was carried by the members upstanding. A vote of condolence was also passed with the re- latives of Mr Huxley, formerly a clerk of the works under this eouRc! and who was killed in action in Franee. Correapondcnce. t The Wye. I*st:, and Rhymney Boards of Conservators, wrote in reply to the council's representations to the effect that they had no power to prohibit Sunday nishing except under Act of Parliament. CrickhoweII District Council wrote as to the desir- ability of .applying for the provisions of the Locomotive Acts with reference to checking the loads drawn by traction engines and heavy motor ears in relation to the width of tyre. the speed per hour, and the proper marking of weights upon waggons and locomotives. The Clerk was understood to say that the county bye-laws atready provided for this. hut the letter was referred to the 31ain Roads Committee. Road Board Grant. ) The Main Roads Committee reported they had receiv- ed from< the Road Board a formal statement of their grant of i'600 in respect of surface tarring works for the current Year. The" recommended that the roads sur- veyor bè authorised to make up the wages. where he thought it advisabte. of attested roadmen serving with the forces, after taking into consideration their Army pay and separation allowances. Good progress had been made with the tar-spraying work, and 145.000 square yards of road had been sprayed with 23.000 gallons of tar. Councillor's Mountain Discowery. ) Mr Prosser Jones said having occasion to pass over the Cribbarth mountain, his attention was drawn to an enormous quantity of road metalling tying idle, which he understood had been there for many years. It oc- curred to him they might come to some understanding with the owner and use it to their advantage on the adjacent roads. "There are thousands upon thousands of tons of metalling on this piece of ground that have not been touched for 40 or 50 years." he said, "and it is close to the road. We talk a tot about economy. and if this material could he got from the owner at a reasonable rate we should use it to our advantage. Let us practise economy and not preach it." The Surveyor said they were using this stone every day. Prosser Jones I have not noticed anything in the agenda of anything being paid to anyone in that part of the va)!ey. Mr David Powell: We had better not say anything about it then. (Laughter.) Mr Prosser Jones: It will last very long years unless it is used much more frequently. Mr Morgan W. Morgan said he did not think they were using the stone referred to by Mr Jones. Still, there was stone they could get from that locality. Mr David Powell said he would be going up that dis- trict shortly and would make enquiries, and the matter was left in the hands of the Main Roads Committee. Mr David T. Jeffreys said he noticed the steam-roller had visited every district except Defynock and Tre- castle. He would like to know whether there was any immediate prospect of their seeing the roller? (Laugh- ter.) Mr David Powell: Some districts must come last. Possibly. "Trecastle was first last year. It may be a case of the first last and the last first. (Laughter.) Mr Jeffreys: If the surveyor is not responsible for that part of the road I move that it he referred to the Roads Committee. so that they might in- struct the surveyor who is responsible. Officiate and Petrot. With reference to the supply of petrol to the County Surveyor and the County Roads Surveyor, these om- cials. said Mr David PoweII, had apptied to the Petrol Cont1 Board. Mr Best made appiicaticn for 20 paUona a month and was granted 6. Mr Harpur applied for 35 rations and was granted 8. Mr Harpur stated that he had used eight gattons in two days this *eek. Ft was decided to petition the Board on the matter. Smatt-Hotdings and Sotdiers on the Land. ) The Small-Holdings Committee reported having con- sidered a letter from the Welsh Agricultural Council on the proposed Small Holding Colonies for Soldiers. asking to be furnished with particulars of property in the county, of not less than 1,000 acres in extent, which should be of a character and so situated as to lend itself tfo the purposes in view, and to development on the lines indicated in the report of the Departmental Committee on the matter, as the council were anxious that one of the three small holdings col )nies recommen- ded by the Departmental Committee should be in Wales. After careful consideration, the committee came to the conclusion that there was no land in the county which would meet the requirements laid down in the Departmental Committee's report in regard to the establishment of the proposed small holdings colon- ies for the settlement of soldiers and sailors on the land, and they have informed the Welsh Agricultural Council of this.—Neuaddau Small Holdings Scheme: The committee received from the Board of Agriculture the sum of &43 5s Id, being in re-payment of one-half of the council's loss of t86 10s 2d on the working of this scheme up to the 31st March, 1915. The committee gave very careful consideration to applications made by David Davies. of Zoar, and John Price, of Clydaeh, for small holdings. With regard to Davies the committee are of opinion that his application is not a reasonable one. He has however been asked to suggest other land suit- able to him, but does not feel inclined to do so, and the committee decided to take no further action. With regard to Price, this applicant has suggested land on three farms as suitable to him. but the committee after enquiries are of opinion that land should not be taken from the three farms suggested by him. They have decided to take no further action. Mr Miller in moving the adoption of the report said if these applicants could point out to the committee suitable land they were prepared to help them as far as they could. The Local Taxation Committee reported that owing to the proposals made hy the Chancellor of the Ex- chequer in his first budget, the Postmaster-General or- dered that all motor car licence duty should be placed on deposit and no until further instruct- ions were given. No further directions have been re- ceived. and any necessary adjustments are therefore delaved. Chairman Pays Up. j An amusing incident occurred upon the pre&entatton of the Finance Committee's report. Mr David PoweU H) moving the report said the only question was that of a certain Union's rates being in arrear. He wanted to treat this very gingerly and did not want to call at- tention to it for he would not be surprised for a mo- ment if the chairman did not plank down a cheque in payment. the Chairman here amidst much laughter threw over to Mr PoweU an envelope. Mr Powell: I thought so! T nm very glad I did not say anything. I know our chairman so well. (Laugh- ter). The paragraph to which Mr Powell referred in the report was to the effect that the Brecknock Union were in arrear with the rates due 1st June, 1916, and recommended that if the amount outstanding was not

BRECON HERO FALLS. 1 ?. i: -:?* PRIVATE OSMOND RICHARDS I Mr and Mrs F. Richards, 20. Orchard Street. Llanfaes, Brecon, have received omcial information that their youngest son, Osmond, was kitted in action at Mametz Wood on Tuesday, 18th July. Young Richards had been with his regiment, the 2nd Batt.. Royal Welsh Fusiliers, in France for over 18 months, and had taken part in some severe engagements during that time. Deceased, who was only 21 years of age, was well-known and much beloved by his comrades and young friends in Brecon. Mr and Mrs Richards lost another son, Frank, who < was killed at Gallipoli on August 9th, 1915. Much sympathy is felt with the family in their sad bereave- ments. but they have the consolation of knowing their sons laid down their lives for their king and country. The eldest son. Sergt. H. A. Richards, of the 2nd Batt.. Royal Welsh Fusiliers, was home on leave from France last week.
Counties' Asylum.I
Counties' Asylum. I PROPOSED PARTNERSHIP WtTH I MONTGOMERYSH!RE. RADNORSHIRE'S ATTITUDE. I At a meeting of the Radnorshire County Council on Friday, a letter was read stating that Mr Beckwith had given notice of motion that at the next meeting of the Visiting Committee of the Brecon and Radnor Asylum he would move that they take steps to appoint an arbitrator to settle the question of the price which should be asked to pay for a partner- ship (with Breconshire and Radnorshire) in the Tal- garth Asylum, and the basis of such partnership. Mr W. M. Baylis (who is a member of the visiting committee) moved in accordance with notice of motion. "That a committee be appointed to carry into effect the resolution passed by the County Council on May llth, as to ascertaining the amount which Montgomery- shire should pay for a partnership share in the Tal- garth Asylum." (This resolution was to the effect that a competent expert valuer be employed at an early date in order to obtain an independent valuation of the I asylum). He was anxious to avoid arbitration in this matter. Atd. Chas. Powell seconded. Aid. Stephens supported, and was proceeding to prove that figures previously quoted by him were correct, though they were stated at the time to be inaccurate. when the chairman said that Ald. Stephens should keep to the "motion." The question of the figures could be gone into by the committee. Ald. Stephens: You generally rule me down, Mr chairman. (Laughter). Rev. Kewley said that if Mr Beckwith's motion were carried, he supposed they should have to bear some of the expense of arbitration. If a committee were ap- pointed that day and they appointed a valuer, they (the county) should have another expense to bear. He was inclined to leave it to an arbitrator to settle. Mr T. L. Vaughan supported the motion, advising the council to help forward the suggested partnership and to obtain the best price possible. He agreed with Mr Baylis that they should keep out of arbitration. Mr B. P. Lewis also supported and said he took it that if a valuer were appointed it would be done jointly with Breconshire. The chairman however pointed out that Mr Beck- with's motion was for an arbitrator-a very different thing. The Radnorshire County Council were, for their own satisfaction, going to appoint a valuer to advise them as to the administrative advantages likely to be derived from such partnership, and, possibly, a valuer of buildings. Mr Baylis pointed out that Breconshire were prepared to accept the sum offered by Montgomeryshire. Their object in appointing an arbitrator was to force Radnor- shire also to accept. Mr Hurst said that if Radnorshtre went in for a valuer they must pay the cost. The motion was carried, as was also a further reso- lution as to the terms of reference.. The following were appointed on the committee: The chairman, the vice-chairman, Mr Bache, Mr Buton, Mr B. P. Lewis. Ald. Stephens, and Mr W. M. Bayhs.

Brecon Huntsman. I
Brecon Huntsman. I LOCAL TRIBUNAL DECISION VARIED. MILITARY REPRESENTATIVE APPEAL I SUCCEEDS. At the County Appeal Tribunal on Thursday, the Bre- con military representative (Mr C. W. Best) appealed against the decision of the local Tribunal m granting exemption until the 30th September to Daniel Thomas (33,) married, huntsman and kennelman of the Brecon shire Hunt. Mr John Meredith, secretary of the Hunt. as respondent. Mr Best asked why Mr Meredith now appeared, and drew attention to the fact that in the first application Mr Dickinson and Mr Meredith appeared, and the second application was made by Colonel Morgan (mf.trr of the Hunt). He (Mr Best) had had no information that there was to be a substitute for Cot. Morgan. The Chairman (Mr D. T. Jeffreys) That does not matter. I think you can proceed with your appeal. Mr Best said the grounds of his appeal were that the time given was too long. Allusion had been made to a circular from the War Office or the Agricultural De- partment as long ago as December 1M5, that hunts should be maintained. That circular was produced at the hearing of the local tribunal and was to the effect that no exemption should be granted to hunt servants on the ground that they were indispensable if they were unmarried men, and that married men should only be exempted under exceptional circumstances. Nothing. he argued, had been shown that the circumstances were exceptional in this case and no evidence had been given of any real effort to find a substitute for this man. The only ground of the War Omee for main- taining hunts was in order that it might aid in the raising of light horses for cavalry work. He held that no exemption on this ground should stand in the way of providing men for the Army. Mr John Meredith, secretary of the Hunt, said he appeared in the place of Col. Morgan who was unable to attend. The pack was supported by subscriptions and managed by a committee. Col. Morgan was the master. The Chairman: I am a subscriber to the pack and perhaps I had better retire. Mr Best: I have no objection at all. Mr de Winton said he was also a subscriber. Mr Meredith said they had only one man and a boy who had twenty couples of hounds and two horses to attend to. He handed in a letter from the recruiting officer at Shrewsbury in reply to a letter from Col. Morgan, who had asked for that officer's advice and opinion on the subject. This omcer was strongly of opinion that the man should be exempted since it had been decided that hunts should be kept up, and as this man was married he (the recruiting officer) saw no ob- jection. Mr Best said he was informed that this officer had no jurisdtetion in the matter. If the Armv Council thought there should be exemption they would have issued an order. The Chairman said he and Mr de Winton had decided not to adjudicate in this case. Mr Best said the reason why he strongly opposed this exemption was that it appeared to him to be extremely difficult from a recruiting and tribunal point of view to ask men to give up their "single man" businesses if men of this class were let off. Mr Meredith said they had two men last December and they let one go. Mr Miller said the chairman and Mr de Winton did not adjudicate in this case. The other members were unanimous that the appeal of the military representa- tive should he allowed. Mr Best: I am quite prepared for the man to be allowed a week or two. What I did object to is three months. Mr Miller: Then we will grant exemption untit 2ith August.

Not Represented. I BRECOXSHIRE AND THE FEDERATION I OF EDUCATION COMMITTEES. At Brecon County Council, on Friday, the Bishop of Swansea, in moving the report of the Breconshire Education Committee. said the question of school atten- dance was a point of enormous importance to the council from a financial point of view. They were los- ing a very big sum of money by the very low average of attendance, and it would make an enormous diHer- ence to their finance if they could only improve it by even one or two per cent. It could only be done bv a widespread effort. An appeal must be made to magis- trates in some cases, for the committee had not atways been backed up as well as they should have been in that direction. An appeal was also made to each district to make every effort to improve schoo) attendance. Prof. Joseph Jones said he was sorry to see that the committee had refused to re-consider the question of joining the Federation of Education Committees in Wales. He agreed with all that had been said on the I subject, but he thought the conditions had changed a good deal since this council was represented on that body. There were very special reasons why they should be. Glamorgan had joined for the first time, and hav- ing a big representation there might be some danger of swamping all the other bodies. Breconshire should join the other agricultural representatives in order to maintain the balance of power of that authority. He moved that the matter be referred back. The Bishop of Swansea asked whether there was any question of power or authority? It was merely a de Hberative assembly, and they were of opinion that the deliberations were worth very little, and that was whv thev made the The Chairman (Mr Owen Price) said the matter could be re-opened at the Education Committee at anv time. Prof. Joseph Jones: But if it is referred back there is special reference. Proceeding, he said at the last meeting of the Federation, held at LIandrindod. an im- portant matter came up affecting Breconshire the Director of Education at Merthyr calling attention to the fact of Breeonshire County School pupils going all the way to Brynmawr instead of to Merthvr. This was for reasons well known to the Breconshire Committee, and Breconshire was not represented at the meeting. He said he would bring the matter up at the Education Committee.
