F I- A A A I- j DENBIGHSHIRE NEWS. | -I LOCAL TRIBUNALS. DENBIGHSHIRE APPEAL TRIBUNAL. NUMEROUS CLAIMS FROM WREXHAM. The Denbighshire Appeal Tribunal sat at Wrexham on Monday. Mr. Christmas Jones presided, and there were also present Messrs. W. G. Dcdd, Jonathan Griffiths, Ed. Hughes (miners agent), J. W. Williams and ^iorr^r Roberts, with Mr, 1. D. Hooson, clerk, Li»ut. Jones and Mr. Arthur Evans representing the militavy. A WREXHAM LAW STUDENT. J. iiopley Fierce, solicitor, wrexnam, ap- pealed against the decision of the Wrexham borough tribunal in granting exemption until July 31(with no further application without con- sent) in respect of Hutrh Bird Jones, The Up- lands, Belgrave-road, Wrexham, a law student and a time-expired man. It appears that this man was articled to Mr. Hopley Pierce, and his articles expired in December last whilst he was in the army. Owing to the fact that he was mobilised, he was prevented from complet- ing his articles and qualifying as a solicitor; but he received his discharge on February 29 under cover of the first Military Service Act, by which time-expired men were exempt from further service. Since receiving his discharge, he has been studying for his final law exam- ination. He only wished to be allowed to pass his final, which he intended sitting for in January. In the time allowed by the local tri- bunal it was absolutely impossible to complete his studies. Mr. Pierce further stated that owing to the depletion of his- office staff this man had become practically indispensable to him.—Appellant said Mr. Jones had been in the 4th R. W.F. for five years. He was called up when war broke out, and served until March last. He attained the rank of sergeant. Then he thought, as he had done a fair amount, he would be justified in taking his discharge so as to resume his studies. He wanted to f>ass his examination in November. At the local tribunal the military representative said the man was entitled to consideration, and the only consideration was an exemption until July 31 without the privilege of applying again ex- cept by leave.—By Lieut. Jones: When he was in the 4th R.W.F. he did not undertake foreign service. He had special reasons for not undertaking foreign service. Lieut. Jones-What special reasons?—Mr. H. B. Jones: Is that a proper question to ask? —Lieut. Jones: It is important for this court to decide whether, you have done your bit.- Mr. H. B. Jones: Is it not possible to, do your bit in this country? Lieut. Jones—Not for a young, single man. You did not volunteer for foreign service? You saw your friends and chums going? Didn't you want to follow them?-—Mr. H. Bird Jones I saw others staying at home. You saw others staying at home, and you thought you would follow them ?-No, I had my convictions. Who is the more necessary, yourself or a solicitor?—I could not sav. Would you be surprised to learn that a young solicitor at Bangor, who had bought a practice-a man named Mr. Harold Bvans-I has had to go and has been refused exemption. Do you think you are more important than he is?—I do not. Take my own case. I am a married man with five children, and I volunteered for foreign service. Do ypu think your case justi- fies you more than mine?—t don't think so. Don't you think it is your duty to go?—I ¡ have no aversion to military service. I But now that men are needed don't you think it is your duty?—I certainly think it is my duty to go; but I want time to qualify if possible. The decision of the local tribunal was con- firmed, and the appeal w" dismissed. WREXHAM CASES. I Joseph Rowland, 5, Beast Market, and 19, Market-street, Wrexham, grocer, confectioner I and general dealer, the head of a one-man business, an attested married man, with a wife and two children, appealed against the deci- sion of the local tribunal in granting him ex- emption to July 31, with liberty to appeal again except by consent. Appellant said he thought the tribunal were authorised, accord- ing to the Prime Minister's declaration, to exempt him. He did not want to evade mili- tary service; but he wished either to be placed in the army reserve or on any work the Government were "in need of."—Appellant said that before taking up this business he was a professional acrobat.—The Chairman: What do you say, Lieut. Jones, about the army re- serve ?-Lieut. Jones: The man is already in the reserve, and we want him in the active army. An acrobat like this would give the German socks.—Exemption granted to Octo- ber 31st. Geo. Leopold Evans, 8, Argyle-street, plate and sheet glass merchant, leaded light maker, glazing contractor, an unattested married man, appealed against the decision of the local tri- bunal in granting him exemption until July 31, witihoTit liberty to appeal again except by consent. Appellant said he had a large amount of capital invested in his business. He was an expert plate glass cutter, a work requiring a high degree of technical skill and long experi- ence. He was the only man who specialised in it at Wrexham. It was a one-man business. Three of the staff had joined the colours, a,nd appellant has promised them their posts after the war. The business would have to be closed down if he was taken. His wife h,ad a business in Charles-street, Wrexham, carried on in pre- mises that belonged to her subect to certain charges. The business was that of a wholesale and retail tobacconist, newsagent, confec- tioner, and dealer in chandlery and hardware. *->' ."l!»nt kept the books, did the buying, paid all the accounts, and otherwise assisted in the management of the business.—Mr. Ll. Hugh Jones appeared for appellant, and said his work WM of a technic attarsomejr-Appellant gave details of the plate giams orders which he had executed recently, and of others which were pending.-Exemption granted to October t315t. Charles ?enry Barker, 9, Bemard-road, Em? and pro?isien merah&nt, an attested WM disallowed by the ?oR ?MM? <?aled for?eMMnab? ?eL t& enable him to dispose of his business. He had endeavoured to sell the business, but had failed to find a customer. He had advertised it.- The appeal was dismissed. Mrs. M. L. F. Holmes, Poplar House, Regent-street, widow, appealed against the de- cision of the local tribunal who granted ex- emption until July 31 (without liberty to appeal again except by consent) in respect of; William Brailsford, Saxon-street, employed by I her as a teeth adapter's mechanic. Mrs. Holmes said she carried on business as a teeth extractor and teeth adaptor at Wrexham and at two branches. Three of her assistants had joined the army, and one worked on munitions. She had only one mechanic left, and it would, be impossible for her to carry on without him. —Exemption granted to October 31. Charles William Wright, 9, Birch-street, confectioner's manager, whose claim was diB- i allowed by the local tribunal, appealed for consideration on domestic grounds. He had a delicate wife and two young children, and he said that what he would receive would not support them in the circumstances that existed, -Lieut. Jones said as the man was 35, married and had two children, and was not passed for active service, he would suggest that he should; go into a munition works.—Appellant said he had had to give up his trade owing to ill- health.—Case adjourned for a fortnight with the object of hearing from the military repre- sentative whether suitable employment has been found for this man. H. A. Jones, Melrose, Salisbury-road, ap- pealed against the decision of the local tri- I bunal in refusing exemption to Cyrus Watkin, 13, Alexandra-road, plumber.—Appellant said the decision of the local tribunal was not con- sistent with the evidence of indispensability advanced.—Mr. Taylor, appellant's manager, said 25 workmen had gone to the forces. The local tribunal had already decided to exempt Mr. H. A. Jones on the ground that his busi- ness was essential, and this man was essential to it. This man was engaged on repairs to Government buildings. He could not be re- placed. -Exemption granted until December 31, conditional on the man remaining in pre- sent occupation.. Mrs. A. Price, Regent-street (trading as E. Rogers, 9, Church-street), appealed against the decision of the local tribunal in granting exemption to July 31 (without liberty to appeal again except by consent) in respect of her son, Osborne William Vaughan Jones, 63, Ben- jamin-road. She said her son had sole control of the business. Owing to over 18 months' ill- ness, she could no longer take part in the business. Besides her son, she had only two young girls as assistants. If her son was called I up for military service the business could not be carried on., as she had no one to manage it, owing to the heavy nature of the wholesale department, and the large amount of clerical ¡ work connected with it. The clerical work had greatly increased owing to the continual advance in prices and the difficulty of obtain- ing supplied. It was absolutely necessary for one who had had years of experience to be in charge. Her son did all the buying, which was technical work.—Mr. Hopley Pierce appeared for the appellant.—The appeal was dismissed. Samuel Rogers, coal and timber merchant and shipper, 12,Charles-street,appealed against the decision of the local tribunal in the case of Aneurin Owen Williams Roberts, 107, Bids- top Avenue, Birkenhead, manager of shipping oaioe (married with three children). Appellant said his manager was indispensable owing to the technical nature of the shipping business, in which he has had 17 years' experience. Appellant added that he had very important contracts to perform.—Exemption granted until December 31 conditional on the man re- maining in his present occupation. Samuel Rogers, coal and timber merchant and shipper, 12, Charles-street, appealed against the decision of the local tribunal in granting exemption until July 31 (without liberty to appeal again except by consent) in respect of John Poynton, 7, Regis Place, a haulier of home grown timber. Appellant claimed that Poynton was in a certified occu- pation. He had more work to haul native timber than he was able to cope with. This man had been in his employ for eight years, and was indispensable. He had failed to find a substitute. — Exempted until September 30, conditional on the man remaining in his pre- sent occupation. Thomas Hayes (38), 110, Rnabon-road, iron and steel engineer's merchant, unattested (married, with one child), exempted until August 31, without liberty to appeal again ex- cept by consent, appealed against the decision of the local tribunal. He said he had during the last 15 years by hard work built up his pre- sent business connection, and had now made it a success after previously losing a considerable sum of money in it. The business was of a personal character, and would have to be given up if he was called away. It was a one-man business.—Mr. Pierce appeared for appellant. —Exempted to October 31 Messrs Cross and Roberts, Chester-street, appealed against the decision of the local tri- bunal in refusing exemption to Percy Roberts, 23, Manley-road, Wrexham, fishmonger's salesman.—Appellants said they had to curtail their business when the man's brother joined the polours eight months ago. The bulk of the brother's work was being done by Percy Roberts, who was one of three brothers, two being in the army.—Exempted to August 21, no further application to be made except by leave. The Borough Billposting Co., Ltd., appealed for the exemption of Thomas Hargreaves, 42, Chester-street, Wrexham, managing billposter. A personal claim was also lodged by the man (married). Conditional exemption granted upon the man being engaged at a munition works. Messrs. Cudworth and Johnson, Eagle Foundry, Wrexham, had appealed against the decision of the local tribunal in refusing ex- emption to the following appreiK.sc.ss engaged ('1¡ Government work: Wm. CurlM Puh. Centre Broughton, turner and fitter, Thomas Beech, 5, Mount-street, Wrexham, turner and fitter, and Ernest Hopwood, New Brighton., Minera, turner and fliter.-The Clerk an. nounced that the appeals had been withdrawn.

I Evan Evans, The !Bryn Stores, Moss, ap- ?lied for the exemption of his son, David ?revor Evans, on the ground that he was the only baker in his em )Iioi?, The local tribunal ?a<!?ed exempj? tober, 3? the?m?n (0 join the V.T.C., and appeal to be reheard re- fused.—Lieut. Jones said this young man was 21 and single.-The decision of the local tri- bunal was confirmed. A JOHNSTOWN CLAIM. Richard Pritchard, Tan;;clawdd, Johnstown, manager of a coal business, who was exempted to July 26 without leave to appeal again ex- cept by consent, appealed against the decision of the local tribunal. He said his aged parents were entirely dependent on the business for their maintenance. When war broke out his brother joined the army on the understanding that he remained at home to look after their parents. He was the only man working the business.—Mr. Peirce appeared for appellant. —Exempted until October 26. RUABON TRADER'S CLAIM. Robert John Roberts, High-street, Ruabon, boot and shoe dealer, unattested, appealed against the decision of the local tribunal in granting him exemption until July 29. He said he bought the business six years ago and put all his money into it.—Exempted until October 29. CONSCIENTIOUS OBJECTOR FROM SUMMERHILL.

He had been in >hi,s employ for tpn years, arid was a. hi-linguist, which was moat im- portant in the Roisubon petty sessional district, and he had frequently to discharge exceedingly important and responsible duties, such as grant- ing warrants, and issuing summonses. Appli- cant's duties as coroner frequently oallied him away, and in his absence his clerk had his per- mission to issue these warrants, etc., as he had his absolute confidence. Applicant quoted let-cere from 'the Home Office, stating that it was of I great public importance that the responsible work in connection with the COIUrits of summary juris- diction etQ., should be carried on properly, and dic?, to the face that a fortnight ago, in appH- cant's absence from home, M'r. Evans acted as his deputy at Ruaoon Police Court, and took sole charge with the responsibility of giving advice to the Bench.

He had no other man of military age In his office, really could not replace him at the present time.—In answer. to questions, Mr. Evans said he was a. wngle rn-ati, 24 yea," of age. He had & brother at the front, and his mother was a I widow .—-It; was decided to grant three months' exemption, with leave to apply again, applicant to end ea,vou? an the meantime to obtain e substi- tute.—>Mr. Ken?Iok said he thanked the Tribunal for their bu?, he feared ?hat to do ais wa6 suggested would be impossible.

He had three sho,m and had had to close one.—Several mem- 6eTa expressed their apprepi?tion of the good wom wi" WM being done by appMc?nt and his I rfbafr, and the Chairman eadd he thought It should be made public, as it was very much to their credit.—Six months' exemption was granted.
