TEACHERS AND THE ABMY j TEACHERS A!D THE ARMY 11 Ladies Where Possible for I Port Talbot. At a meeting of the Port Talbot Group of I cichool Managers at Aberavon Town Hall on Tuesday, Aid. J. V. Smith presided, and others present were: 21re. E. W. Llewellyn, MiS13 David, Messrs. Percy Jacob, Edward Lowther, Moses Thomas, VI. Mathias, T. Jenkins, Tom John, Henry Davies, T. Main- waring, Idris T7a;ere, Dd. Jenkins and E. Howe, A. Deere (Clerk), and Primary In- spector T. Powell. Mr. Henry Davies moved that the managers rescind a refolution passed at a previous meeting that they should not Ap- point mate teachers who were eligible for the Army but should fill tha places with women teachers. He said that young teachers they decided not to appoint had now obtained temporary pc»ta, 60 they were unable to carry out their policy. Ald. J. M. Smith: If I remember rightly we decided to appoint lady teachers "where possible." Tlie Clerk eeid he had communicated with the County Education Committee, and they had replied that the reo>olutioii which the managers had pa,J was in accordance with their recommendation. The managers couid alieiUir tnemteives b--hii,,t the piinse "where possible."—No resolution wa-s passed. In oennection with the suggested appoint- ment of Mr. Dan Edwards as a teacher, Mr. Percy Jacobs remarked If we are going on like this i- is a farce and a -&stu of time to sit here." Mr. T. Jehn: He is too ehort even for the Bantams. (Laugh er.) Aid. J. M. Smith: In that ceee rhe ob. jection fails. Difficulty of Valley Appointments. Inspector T. Powell drew attention to tie dt?Bou!ty of gettmg teacher? to fill vacm- cies in ?chooi? in the Afon Valley. Mra. R. W. LleweLyn: Is this the most un- manageable dtstrict. in Glamorganshire? Inspector T. Powell: Similar (lifficulties take place in other districts where there are Valley school. Notwithstanding the higher salaries paid to the teachers in the Valley ichoolo, they etill want to leave for trie town. Mr. T. John; Is it not a fact that the teachers are paid higher salaried in Glyn- corrwg than any other .district ? Mr. W. MathF: Five pound. year extra was paid for railway fares, but, with the exception of Glyncorrwg and Abercryan, this was disallowed. It was resolved that the Education Com- mittee be written to to re-establish the extra pay for Valley teachers, and that Mr. Wm. Jenkins be -,t-ked to bring the matter before the County Education Authority and point out the trouble ii procuring teachers. Teachers and Registration. Mr. Moses Thomas said that in regard to national registration there had been sug- gested the Question of appealing to teachers to assist. He. its town clerk, had issued an appeal to. HIe schools, and a'l but one ad promised to give their assistance. He thought that if an appeal w: sent from that meeting to the teacher to assist in the registration, it would have a good effect. This waa agreed to.

T'ne deatli took place on Tuesday morn- C iie p l ing. of Mr. F. T. Swanborough, joint I managing director of tlw Avon India J{ubber Company. He had been associated with the company for more tkan twenty 1 jrears.

I ANGERED THE JUDCE -.0. A Jury Foreman Ordered I From the Box. An extraordinary incident in the High Court yesterday ended in Mr. Justice Ridley's calling upon the foreman of a spt-cial jury to leave the box. The London County Council were suing Messrs. Selfridge's for damage for alleged breach of a contract to exhibit advertise- merits on the Council's cars for three years. After hearing the case for the plaintiffs and the opening arguments of Mr. Hawke, K.C., for the defence, Mr. Justice Ridley: said it was a question of law for him. Mr. Hawke submitted that there were several questions of fact for the jury. Mr. Justice Ridley: I think there is no answer to the case. Gentlemen of the jury, will you be good enough to find a verdict for the plaintiffs. The Foreman: The jury would like to consider the matter, my lord. Mr. Justice Ridley: Then I shall not allow you to consider it. Hold Your Tongue!" I The Foreman: Some of the jurymen think that it is a travesty of justice to the de.fendauts. Mr. Justice Ridley: Then you will be good enough to hold your tongue about it. In my opinion it is a clear case in which the plaintiffs are entitled to judg- ment and I shall enter judgment tor the plaintiffs. His lordship then turned to the fore- man and said: You will be good enough to treat me with more respect, sir. Mr..Hawke then asked for a stay of execution, as the case would certainly go to' the Court of Appeal. After discussion with counsel as to the course to be adopted. Mr. Justice Ridley said to the foreman: "Will you kindly leave the- box ? The Foreman: I merely submitted a request from the jury. Mr. Justice Kidley: What, right have you to interfere with me" Leave the box. The foreman and another juryman left the box. and the remaining ten jurymen were resworn with another two to try the next case.

OUR FOREIGN TRADE AS IT IS IN PEACE AND I WAR THE NEED FOR ECONOMY J (Special to the Leader.") I At the outbreak of war a great disloca- tion of the foreign trade of the United I Kingdom at once set in. and for the first few months of war, trade was in such I a state that these months do not give a fair basis on which to form a comparison of foreign trade in times of peace and war. The beginning of 1915 saw our foreign trade practically settled down—in so far as it can be called settled—ou a war footing, and thus we may safely compare the foreign trade of the United Kingdom for the six months ending June 30th, 1911, with that of the six months ending June 30th, 1915, to study the effcct of the war on our trade. The figures* of totals as given in tlft Board oi Trade's monthly statistical ab- stract are as follows, tne figures being given to the nearest million:— Six months ending June 30th. 1911, Total Imports Total Exports I. Excess of Imports £61,000,000 Six months ending June 30th. 1915, Total Imports £ J29.000.000 Total Exports Excess of Jm ports Imports and Exports. I This shows that compared with the six months ending June 30th, 1911, our im- ports for the corresponding period of 1915 have increased 11 per cent., while our ex- ports have decreased 25 per cent., and we have to face an excess of imports of 1195,000,000 for six months, which will not he less than £100,000,11110 for the whole of 1915, and since the excess will be getting larger, a figure of £ 500,000,000 as the total excess of imports for 1915 cannot be con- sidered an over-estimate, especially as m this figure must be included goods pur- chased abroad by the Government, hut which, being the property of his Majesty's (Government at the time of importation, are not included in trade returns. For example, notwithstanding all vy hear about the huge purchases of timber made or. behalf of the Government, the trade returns for the first half of 1915 show a decrease of half a million sterling in tli€ | amount of timber and wood imported, compared with the first hall of 19! t. At the end of the war, it is to be hoped that the Government will publish the figures I of all its purchases, but until that time, let iis rely on the moderate estimate made. and generally accepted, o? £ 7U.00U,Q00. We, as a nation, are tIm. ¡ face to face with an excess of imports for 1?5 of about £ 500,000,000, which sum has to be paid for, and the question how"? arises. Services to Other Nations. In the first place, let it not be for- gotten that foreign trade is a process of barter, the coinmodities (visible imports) and service (invisible imports) which other nations get from us. must balance 'hat we receive from them. In other i ?ords. imports, in a wide ?nsc, must balance exports, in a wide sense. For many years past the United King- Join's foreign trade has shown an excess of imports. £ 111,000,000 being the average excess for the seven years ending 1913. This excess we paid for by rendering i services to other nations. Of these services," shipping earns for the United Kingdom a 6um of about £ 100,000,000 yearly. Another important item is the iv.tfrest of British capital invested abroad, which is estimated to earv 1190 000,000 per annum, while the ser- vices of bankers and insurance brokers, though not 60 large, must not be lost sight of. I nvestments Abroad. Hence, in peace times we have more than enough to moot the annual excess of imports of X144,000,000, so much more that each year sees large amounts of money due to England, being reinvested abroad. But the figures for 1915 show a very different condition of things, and the excess of imports is more than balanced by thise services rendered to other nations. Moreover, the amount, due as interest on capital invested abroad is getting smaller through the calling in of loans and the sale of securities. Hence the answer to the question of the pay- meat for the excess of imports becomes all important. One way would be to raise a foreign loan of = £ 500,000,000. and though nothing has yet been done in this direction, the Government, may have to consider this matter at a later date. National Economy. I Another way is by the economy which the Covernmect is 'Urging upon the com-? llunity. By a policy of national economv I —a doing without goods from foreign countries-wc, coiild appreciably reduce our indebtedness to other countries. An increased home product ion would also be I a great help in meeting the excess for it would mean increased exports, but such an increase is probably impossible, as about five -million men have been with- drawn from productive labour for the munition factories and the Army. Still, if the nation will, as far as potiible. do without the articles of home (as well as of foreign) production, the result will be good. as it leaves a larger amount, for export, and, therefore, reduces the excess of imports. The Sale of Securities. I A fourth method of paying for this ex- cess is by selling securities, which has to some extent already taken place, but which is very undesirable, as it means a gradual destruction of capital. Hence rational economy seems to he the solution of the excess of imports question, and it remains to be seen whether or not tlv* Government will force upon us a system of economy by heavily taxing articles which our standard of living lias brought into general demand, but which we couid well do without, and foreign articles which are not necessaries. li such taxa- tion were imposed, prices would rise ac- cordingly, and there would be, besides the patriotic motive, an additional and powerful influence at work to induce national economy. Apart from taxation I there seems to be no way in which the Government can enforce econom" v. Germany's imports. I It jg interesting to note the suggestion o? some Germans rhat? England, hy top- J ping Germany's imports has really as- sisted her. because she has now become eclf-dfppottpnt, and lias not to consider the problem of an excess of imports. i Though this is a misstatement of Ger- '.many's position, if a' least emphasises the condition of things which we as a nation have to face, namely, a very 7rplit excess of imports. *Xote.—The alwe figures do not in- clude tlie £ 11,000.000 bullion and specie imported, an d exported during the ti month; ending June .'mti¡, 1915. as t hee figures are incomplete. .Bullion 'hap, since the outbreak of war been kept for the Bank of England in outlying parts of the Empire such as Capetown.

Greenway, son of Mr. and Mrs. Edward Greenway, 13 u r r o w s road, S kewen, who has just, returned home convalescent, was wounded under strange circum- stances at Riche- bourg. The trench in which he was tak- ing refuge at the ti uc was destroyed as the result of a mine exploding. He was then thr«wn out bodily, and alighted head down- wards. witn his feet last in the par-ipet. While in that position, a bullet struck his foot. wounding him severely. The fall also brought about concussion, and the shock of the explosion gave him a terrible shaking. Previous to this, he had experienced several mine explosions.

150 SHIPS SUNK I Russian Black Sea Fleet | Hitting the Turks Hard. Petrograd, Tuesday.—A despatch from the Caucasus Army Headquarters, issued to-night say- On July 25th there was artillery firing I .in the coast region. A Russian motor launch sank a heavily laden Turkish vessel. In the direction of Mush the enemy's iresistance continues, as the Turks have received great reinforcements. One of our valiant Cavalry Regiments furiously charged and sabred two com- panies of Turks and drove the remnants back on to the right bank of the Eiiplir,ite. On the rest of the front there was no engagement. Between the Dniester and the Pruth isolated enemy attacks were harren d I results. In the, Black Sea our destroyers bom- 1 barded the buildings at the Ports of Samsonnich and the Rizeh. and destroyed ,150 sailing craft near the Anatobau coasr.

GUARDING THE KAISER I- HOW THE GERMAN EMPEROR IS PROTECTED ON THE FIELD. I I CHAMELEON-LIKE TRAIN Zurich (received Tuesday).—Herr Paul I Schmeùcr, who claims to be one of those very few and highly-favoured correspon- dents who have lived at the Kaiser's headquarters since the beginning of the war, has just written a large volume in which lie tells the German public all about the life which their war-lord leads at the front. He scornfully rejects the theory circa- lated by enemies of the Fatherland that the Kaiser's presence at the front dis- turbs the German Generals, and main- tains, on the contrary, that his advice is frequently sought and generally acted on by them. The Kaiser's special train, in which he makos his famous and frequent rushes from one front to the other, consists, ac- cording to Herr Schmeder, of ten car- riages, constructed on modern lines-- comfortable certainly, but not luxurious. At the, beginning ot the war the special train was painted a whitisii-blue colour. so that the troops and civilians were always able to recognise and cheer the Emperor as he passed. Chameleon-Like Train. J But the fear that hostile aviators might find the task of dropping bombs upon the war-lord made easier it they were aware of that fad has resulted in the periodical repainting of the train in various colours. The uece-sity for this precaution," adds Herr Schmeder."will be ojiviouswhen 1 liiounon that a train, purposely made to resemble in colour and in form that. of the Kaiser's, was promptly bombarded by French flying men shortly after leav- ing the Frankfort Railway Station." The safety of the Emperor in the field is guaranteed, he says, by • his personal adjutants and hy the large number of secret police, known as secret field police," which have ix-en specially selected from all parts of Germany. It is their duty to keep the Kaiser under the closest observation both in the field and at the Headquarters of the General Staft, to make iiure that no spies are watching his movements—that no dyna- mitards are prowilug in the neighbour- hood. 'TO Smiles for the Children. I .1.0 an appearances, he adds, there seem to be no precautions taken for guarding the Kaiser, but, as a matter of tact, invisible eyes watch him, and day and night there is an absolutely ini- penetrable barrier between him and the outside world. Naturally, in the field and at the Emperor\s move- ments are unhampered by his guards. and one frequently sees him talking serenely and smilingly to the children he encounters in the town which happens to bo occupied by the General Staff. At the headquarters recently estab- lished across the frontier in France the Emperor won the hearts of the inhabit- ants by coming out of his room a few minutes after his arrival in order to talk to the excited children who had gathered in front of the house." Ca.bin et. Ministers, Court officials, doctors, military attaches, hairdressers, chauffeurs, and coachmen, says the writer, aie included in tie curious popu- lation which invade the town where the General Staff temporarily takes up quar- ters. "Are You There, Hindenburg? I The first flour of the Imperial headquar- ters looks like a telephone exchange, and so perfect is the telephone system that the Kaiser can get into immediate com- munication with his army chiefs in the West and in the East, with Government 1 representatives at Berlin, and even with his Ambassadors in neutral European countries. Men. not girls, are employed to work this telephone exchange, the pre- sence of women at headquarters or at the front having been sternly prohibited by the military authorities. H err Schmeder insists upon the friendly relations which exist between the Kaiser and the Crown Prince, and to emphasise this point gives a pen-picture of the two Royal personages strolling arm in arm down the streets of a French village. Cabinet meetings, when held at head- quarters, usually take place in the morn- ing, and councils of war at night after dinner. The Kaiser, of course, presides, the Chief of State or the Chancellor, ac- cording to the nature of the meeting, being seated on his right side.

Later lie received a commission in the A.S.C.. and now he has still fiii-ther cii- hanced his position. His only brother, the Rev. L. G. Hughes, who is a eon-in- la.v of Mr. Thos. Powell, H.M.

SHOPKEEPER RUINED BY RATS. George Morris, a Pontypridd grocer, de- clared in the local Bankruptcy Court on Tuesday that he had been ruined by the. -i-ai-ages of rats. His losses through rats amounted to X2 a week for the last three and a half years. The Official Receiver: How many rats have you caught, in your hop? Morris: Between 1,200 and 1,300, and on the night the receiving order was made I caught 13. He added that he had taken every step to get rid of them, and had pa rl i:7 to professional rat catchers. The rats got into the window, and people passing the shop on Sunday used to call at his house to inform of it.

The Victorian Minister of Defence an- nounces that plans have been received from the Imperial Government for the manufacture of eighteen-pound shells. A census of available machinery is being taken, and the engineers arc preparing to begin manufacture immediately on an immense scale.
