I I I NOTES OF THE DAY. | From our London Oorreapondent. i From our London Cone.pondeDt. j ———" jciouded Peace Prospects. Once again the prospects of an early peace are clotrded over. The speech of Mr. Lloyd George and President Wilson's address to Congress have dtsae a service in clarifying the war aims of the Allies. They were both restrained in language and moderate In tone. But it is no use blinking the fact that they set forth I aims which, as the military situation stands, are not -at present realizable. We had betterkili the hear before we proceed to divide his skin. The Central Empires on their part were quick to point out to their people the discordance between the Allied war aims and the grim realities of the battle fronts. There ensued an out- burst of Jingoism by the Pan-Germans, r: frantic efforts to beat up the war spirit among weary peoples and wild appeals to Germania to sharpen her sword once more on the grindstone of national egoism preparatory to fresh attacks on -enemies represented as seeking the ruin and destruction of Germany,' Austria- Hungary and Turkey. I I The leaven working. I These desperate efforts to stoke up the furnace of war are not very encouraging "to ife promoters of a peace of under- standing between the nations. And yet with it all the peace leavon is working, slowly, silently, imperceptibly. Its still small voice may yet prevail over the jdin [ created by the raucous voicès- of the lords of war. Russia, militarily helpless, re- mains a potant force in the realm of ideas. She is revenging her military de- feats by carrying on an active propa- j -ganda of ideas, whose infection is spread- ing in other lands and which are percol- -ating slowly even through the closely- guarded frontiers of Germany. A fierce I internal struggle is raging in Germany, the military party demanding that the Russian Baltic provinces shall be incor- pcrated within the German Empire and taie Socialists, and progressives angrily protesting against this policy of grab, "You told us," say the Socialists, "that this war was for Germany a war of de- fence against envious enemies; we be- lieved you and supported the war; you now transform it into a war of aggres- sion; but we will not be party to that monstrous perversion and we stand by the Reichstag formula,—no annexations, no indemnities.'f Bolshevik influence from Russia is fortifying the German Socialists in this attitude. The situation in Germany is one of great strain and pregnant with possibilities. 1 More Fighting. It is much feared, hov/efver, that before the voice of reason prevai there will be more fierce fighting as soon as climatic conditions permit. Mr. Lloyd George's speech and that of President Wilson, arc bemg used by the German militarists for their sinister ends. "The Allies," they say, "are not only asking for the restoration of Belgium and j Serbia; they want to wrest from Germany j the two provinces, Alsace-Lorraine, which j we won in the war of 1370-1; and to tear from it Prussian Poland which Frederick the Great conquered in the 18th century, Let us fight to the death against these arrogant enemies who would dismember j cur Empire." To a people so intensely patriotic as the Germans this will be an appeal so powerful that it may even whip them up to one last big effort] in the field I in spite of their sufferings and their Passionate longing for peace. Germany may be weak economically, but she is still powerful in the battle-line. It must be remembered, if Russia is to be written off as no longer a military asset, that Germany and her Allies will for the greater part ofIf) 18 have a preponder- greater pM-t' o? i?g ?-e a preponder- ance of force over their antagonists. This being so, the German militarists are eager to attempt an offensive on a bigv scale against tfoe French and the British in tlm spring ef this year. Russia-the incal^u&ble. Russia, the in-palculab ly* remains an embarrassment for them. Those amazing men, Lenin and Trotsky, peace-lovers, idealists, humanitarians as they are, now talk of resuming the war if the German j Imperialists seize one rood of Russian soil. Russia in her chaotic condition ap- j pears to be incapable of military efforts; j but there is ilo.K-nowing what a revolu- I tionary army may do under the impulsion of a great idea. It is very irksome to Germany to have a revolutionary and pacifist Russia. on her frontier: but if revolutionary Russia flies to arms the best-laid schemes of the German military I party may be set at naught, I

—— Cemetery for Burry Port THE COUNCIL TAKE ACTION. -The question of a public cemetery was again discussed by the Burry Port Coun- cil at their meeting on Thursday. Coun. Edmunds: I see that the "Star" paid us a compliment last week saying that we as a Council had started the new year well by discussing the provision c; a cemetery (laughter). The Surveyor gave a summary of what previous Councils had done in regard to the purchase of a suitable site. From this it appeared that the Pemberton Estate had mentioned terms on which they would be prepared to sell a piece of land in the Van district. Mr. Morgan mentioned that another suggested site was on the Ashburnham estate. Mr. Taylor said that when the matter came up before, there was a very favour- j able report on the Ashburnham site. j Mr. Evans: It is important that the Council should deal with this matter at once, because I knew that several chapels are already considering the question of providing their own burial grounds. I would suggest that we should form a committee with the chapel representa- tives to go into the matter thoroughly. Tabernacle and Jerusalem burial grounds are practically full now. Mr. Hammond thought that the pro- pooal to form a committee was an excel- lent one. Mr. Edmunds agreed that a cemetery was an urgent necessity, and he ex- pressed the hope that the project would now be dealt with. Mr. Morgan referred to a piece of bud owned by the Stepney Estate which would be suitable for the purpose. Mr. Hammond: Of course, this is a matter for the Council, but it would be a good thing to have a committee including representatives of the various denomin- ations, because it affects them all. Mr. Thomas Davies seconded the sug- gestion of Mr. Evans, and it was carried. It was further agreed that the committee should consist of the following seven members The Chairman, Thomas Davies, A. E. Taylor, J. Evans. J. Davies, R. T. Hammond, and R. G. Thomas. Mr. Edmunds: I think you should have j the Chairman of the Lighting Committee i {)n. N Mr. DI. Davies: No, the dead don't j want any light. It was further decided that each place j j of worship should be invited to appoint j a representative 'to act on the committee. j

WAR CHARITY BALL. -1 11 The provision of an X-Rays at the Stebonheath Military Hospital is an urgent necessity, and with the view of securing funds. for the purpose the St. John's Ambulance Brigade are organizing a war charity ball which has been fixed for Friday, January 25th. It will be held at the Parish Hall, and Lieut.-Colonel- Surgeon E. Evans will act as M.C. The prices of the tickets are, Gents' 10s., Lady's 7s. 6d., Double, 15s. These can be obtained from Mr. Geo. Auckland, Stepney street. Although the notice given is short it is hoped the patriotism of the public will *be such as to ensure a good attendance becaiise the object is a I laudable one.

r Five Prisoners of War I WHAT LADY HOWARD'S FUND IS DOING. V To the, Editor of the "Star." Sir, r I have much pleasure in placing before you the accounts of the Llanelly Prisoners of War Fund, up to date- We have now five Prisoners on our books, and I should again like to call at-j tention to the fact that the cost per year for each man is L32 8s. (at the rate of three parcels per fortnight at 9s. each), and for the five men j6162. You will notice how few subscriptions we have re- I ceived during the past year, and also that at present there is no balance in hand. I I shall be glad to have the names of other prisoners of war from Llanelly, if there any any. It seems incredible that there should be only five, out of all the men who have joined from the town.

I I Y.M.C.A. at Burry Port MR. HIGMAN PROTESTS AGAINST THE RECENT ATTACK. I A letter was read at the, meeting of the Burry Port Council on Thursday from Mr. Frank S. Higmlít, divisional secre- tary of the Y.M.C.A.,Orot( sting against the attacks made on the Y M.C.A. at a (recent meeting. The lettt- ran:- "My attention has been called to a re- port of the proceedings of a recent meet- ing of your Council in which two of the Councillors severely criticized the work of the Y.M.C.A. in Burry Port. I have made careful inquiries into the accusa- tions made against us and find there is not the slightest foundation for them. I beg therefore to enter a strong protest against such criticism being made in Council, when we have no opportunity of answering them. I have placed the mat- ter in the hands of Mr. W. W. Brodie, solicitor, Llanelly,, with instructions to deal with the case. The Clerk said he had had an interview with Mr. Brodie, who told him that the Y.M.C.A. were very vexed at what had been said. He would be glad to know if the Council associated itself with what had been said, and if not, if they would pass a resolution to that effect. The Chairman: I don't think we did. I Mr. Dl. Davies: I should like to know how the matter came before the Council at first. The Clerk: There is no record of it in the minutes. The Chairman: But how did it origin- ate? The Clerk: There was a letter written by me as to getting the Y.M.C.A. hut in a more central part of Burry Port. That is how it started. Mr. Dl. Davies: Does it say what pa- per it appeared? My name was men- tioned -very prominently in the "Star" but what I did say I can confirm. If we are dummies here we don't want a Coun- cil at all. -Xr. J. Davies: What are the accusa- tions ? I don't think we should be deaf and dumb here. Mr. Leyshor I believe the Jeast said about it the better, and I propose that we pa'ss a resolution that we do not associate ourselves with what was said. Mr. Edmunds: Of course I did open the matter, but I simply asked for infor- mation. I did not attack the Y.M.C.A. at all. I only wanted to know wh et her,, the hut wa,s to be removed because it was not a financial sucess, or because it was not necessary. Mr. Dl. Davies It is not fair for any paper to put a bold heading as if I started it. Mr. Edmunds: No, I started it, but not in the way of attacking the Y.M.C.A. at all. I only asked who it was that the Y.M.C.A. were providing for. My name did appear in the paper as. having started the discussion, and that is quite correct. Mr Hammond: I pr.opow as an amend- ment that the matter lie on the table. Mr. Daniel Davies seconded. It was decided by a majority that the matter lie on the table. Mr. J. Evans: You had better take the names. Something might follow this. The voting was :—For the amendment: Messrs. Hammond, Dl. Davies, T Davies, J. Da-viep. and Taylor—5. Against: Choir- man. J.

I Pay of the Police. I" STANDING JOINT COMMITTEE AND THE HOME SECRETARY. At the Carmarthenshire Standing Joint Committee at Carmarthen, Mr. D. W. Drummond presiding, the Secretary of State wrote in reference to the decision to increase the police scale of pay to the Glamorgan standard, stating that the police were entitled to additional re- muneration, but it was not clear whether permanent increased pay was justified by existing circumstances, and therefore the increase in that form could not be ap- proved. It was suggested, therefore, that the increase be paid in the form of a war bonus. The Secretary of State sug- gested that a conference of authorities in neighbouring districts should be held at an early opportunity. Dr. J. H. Williams, Burry Port, moved the granting of the increases decided I upon in the form of a war bonus. Ald. H. I E. B. Richards, who seconded, j said the police were really in need bf the Ii amounts determined uon. He did not see what reason the Secretary of State had for placing obstacles in the way. They I heard of money lavished and thrown away I in the most spendthrift manner by the Government Departments, but when it I came to a matter- of making necessary I provision for the men who safe-guarded the peace of the county they placed diffi- culties in the way. Their decision meant that the ratepayers of the county would have to find the whole of the war bonus instead of receiving one-half of the in- creases from the Exchequer as antici- pated. They never heard of obstacle* to the payment of the salaries of the higher 'I State officials. The motion to pay increases in the form of war bonus was carried unani- mously, and the chairman and Mr. David Evans were appointed to attend a con- ferencc whenever such was summoned, i k

-=- I H01>v Food is Eeol1.- How Food is Econ- j omisecL i i  To the Editor of the "Star." I ,Sir, Not! many Sundays ago a local pastor impressed upon his congregation the serious need of economy in food. It was a timely message, but judging by what followed soon afterwards, its effect was short lived. Not many evenings subse- quently, the choir sat down to a fine spread, with plenty of tea, sugar, cakes, butter, tongues, jellies and nuts. One hears that the bread and butter, and tongue sandwiches were a treat It is not surprising to learn that several of the church memhersre trying to find out where all these nice, things came from. They suggest that as these pre- cious commodities cannot be obtained in the shops, soirees should be held weekly. They further suggest that in regard. to food economy, as well as everything else, example is bettor than precept. I am, Llanelly, ECONOMIST. Jan. 11th, 1918.

Just a hundred years ago this week, it fell to the pleasant tot of the Llanelly Harbour Trust to put on record their ap- preciation of the gallantry of the pilots i at Burry Port and Llanelly., The "Cam- brian" of >the periodT reported:—"The j Trust has..voted five guineas to the pilots j vfyo wdnt and picked up Capt. Teague, master of the 'Elizabeth and Phillis,' lost j on Pembrey Sands. The pilots will also receive eight or nLiJe pounds as salvage. It is likewise intended to preseijJ a piece of plate to Mr. Bonville, farmer, of Pem- brey, for humanely riding with all haste to Llanelly and giving notice of the poor man's perilous situation."

I Heroic Munition Workers -4110. LOCAL RECIPIENTS OF THE MEDAL The "London Gazette" on Wednesday contained a long list of heroic munition and other workers -who have been awarded the Medal of the Most Excellent Order of the British Empire. We are glad to find two local names included, both being workers at a well-known fac- tory not many hundreds of miles from Llanelly. We are not permitted to. tell the whole story of their gallantry, and must content ourselves with the bare official record:-k, ,DAVIES, VIOLET ANNE-For courage in remaining at her pest at the tele- phone during a severe explosion.

Davies, Glanmor terrace, and Mr. Ii Morgan lives at Silver terrace, Burry Port. It is interesting to note that their 'I fellow employees have opened a subscrip- tion list with the view of making them a presentation. This is most commendable but unless we are mistaken, it would I seem as though invidious distinctions are I thus being made, as we are not aware I that a presentation was made to Mr. Ifor Reginald Pugh, Thomas street, who in saving the lives of hundreds suffered such frightful injuries which have permanent- ly incapacitated him. This we feel sure I is an oversight, and when it comes to the notice of those employed at the factory it will probably be rectified. Mr. Pugh, who is "a married man, certainly deserves a testimonial.

I fJorocgh Mesaber on I I Conscience. II' PROTEST AGAINST JlHIS INIQUITY." In a lecture on John Penry, the young Welsh martyr, at Tabernacle Baptist Cljupcl, Carmarthen, Mr. W. Llewelyn i Williams, K.C., M.P., referred to the critical days of Queen Elizabeth's reign du.ring which Penry lived, and said he was amazed to hear people say in these days, when there had not been a single invader's foot on British soil, that we were in such a. tremendous emergency and danger* such as this country had j never been through before, and that the most extraordinary legislation was re- j quired to procure the safety of the realm against foreign enemies. He wished people who talked like that would read, a little of the history. of their country. What wa.s there now that the very safeguards of liberty should be done away with in the interest of the defence of the realm ,? Our. forefathers went through a far greater crisis than we have and they kept the citadel of liberty (cheers). Referring to the sentence of two years' imprisonment with hard labour passed on Stephen Hobhouse, the conscientious objector, for disobeying Army orders, Mr. Williams said some conscientious objectors were being pun- ished over and over again for the same offence. He knew of a young Welsh poet who was doing hard labour for the fourth time. As Recorder he had never given two years' hard labour to the. mpst hardened criminal that came before him. Hobhouse was doing what Penry did, obeying tne dictates cf his conscience. Let them not sneer at conscience. "Are we living really in the twentieth century of the ej-a of Christ ?" he asked. "Are people who profess to be Christians so lost to all sense of shame that'; these things are going to be allowed to go on ? I protest against it myself, and in the i name of John Penry, I care nothing what the consequences may be. So long as I have a tongue in my head and can hold a i pen in my hand and utter a word, I shall | utter my protest in every possible way i against this iniquity that fs being perpe- trated among us this day." n

 ASTER?S. It has been decided to pay the police fortnightly instead of monthly. Eight years ago to-morrow, the Rev. W. R. Watkin, M.A., was "recognized" at Moriah. The Rev.

An extraordinary good programme will be shown. "The Girl from Frisco" serial is going strong. During the pa-st week news has been received that two Burry Port soldiers are prisoners of war in Gerlnany. They had been on the ominous "missing" list for several weeks. They were discussing the Cemetery question at the Burry Port Council on Thursday. All the members, we are glad to know, resisted the temptation to de- scribe it as a "grave" matter. AVe -have had various samples 'of weather this week. One irascible mem- ber of the Chamber of Commerce says that first it blew, then it 'snew, then it thew, jtnen it blew again. And now he's' got the "fiu." The Ministry of Food have issued a memorandum authorizing local Food committees to invite the Press* to their meetings. Some weeks ago the Llanelly committee, in their wisdom, decided to hold their meetings in private. 7é It was a year ago onMonday that Mr. Griff J. Thomas, M.A., was appointed headmaster of the Intermediate School. The occasion was remarkable from the fact that at the voting, 51 votes were cast with only 49 members present. Honours novir come a" On the day when it was announced tliat Mr. D. J. Thomas, manager of the Shell- Facte.y, had been appointed an Officer of the British Empire Order, his brother, Sergt. Thomas, was presented with the military medal. This gallant soldier who i& at- tached to the Lancashire Regiment, gained his medal for distinguished /con- duct in the field.
