Ben Jones presiding in the abeence of the. Mayor (Mr. W. H. Miles*. There was a full attendance of mem- < bers. On the Parks Committed mrnntea, Aid. Owen repeatedly sought to aseer- j tarn when the Figure Eight in Victor:a Park would be removed, as was promised, j and aa people were beginning to talk.' But Aid. Kemtnings offered no reply, and Ald. Owen's effort to get in the question under various minutes failed. At length Aid, ÛWfm, addressing the Town Clerk (who, of course, had been consulted by the ex- Mayor in his.uling), said: t don't know whether you "want to catch a train to the Mumbles? The Town CleTk (to the ex-Mayor): I protest that I fchonld have some protee- tion. You as-ked mo to advise you, and I advised you. I don't want to catch a train to the Mumbles. I am going in a motor car to-night. Ald. Owen: I don't core if you walk. W are ontitled to have the information. The Town Clerk: You are not entitled to inault your officials. Aid. Owen: And you are not entitled to kept continually bluffing us as yon are doing:. (" Oh! Oh! ") (To the ex-Mayor): no you rule me out, Mr. ex-Mayor? I will be ruled out by yon, not by the Town Clerk. The ex-Mayor: I rul e yon ont. The incident then ended. IMPORTANCE OF HOUSING. Moving the Housing Committee minutes, Mr. Percy Molyneux told the members that- the houses in Do-la-Beche-,Areet vould all be occupied by the end of this week. The number thus housed was made up of 36 adults and 61 children. Prooeed- ing, he emphasised the importance of the y housing problem, and so far as he was concerned it was going to be housing first, housing second, and housing third. If he was spared to continue as chairman of the Housing Committee, he hoped that in the next six months or so they would be committed to half a million for housing. j Mr. H. Griffiths alluding to the minute which recommended that in view of the hisrh cost of Army huts the erection of these was impracticable, said since this recommendation the appalling and fear- ful document of cases of overcrowding had b-pen issued. Thiz, was a terrible re- flection upon the state of society. He had never eeen anything worse in his life. It was misery in the mass. indecent, im- moral, and absolutely filthy. In face of I' this, he thought they should see if the Government would provide similar finan- cial assistance for liats as for houses. He hated huts, but they would be better than this. Aid. Molyneux said financial conditions in regard to huts had improved, but it was N still thought it was better to go on a lilt.ile longer, awaiting decent houses. The i-ninute was i-eferred back for fur- theof cons i(le,-ation. LABOUR ASSOCIATION AND I S HOUSING. I The ilousin. z Committee had received a copy oi a reiCiiution passed by the Swan- sea Labour As sociation calling upon the Corporation to inoceed with a housing scheme, adequate .-to the needs of the people, to the exclusion 01 expenditure on any other matter. Councillor Molyne ux explained that the committee had felt t hat this was a matter upon which the Council as a who should express an opinion, find lie asked for their views. Aid. James at once* proposed that an in- struction go forward to the various com- mittees through thfy .Parliamentary Com- mittee to exclude a!'l expenditure until the housing difficulty vias solved. This was seconded by Councillor David Williams (St. Thpma.s), who instanced cades in his ward <o emphasise the press- ing need for hoU'.s. They intended, he said, to expend about « £ T0,000 upon a school on Town Hill, but what was the •ass of schools, he asked, if they were going to rear children in slums? Every- thing should stand aside for the urgent question of housing. The present Isola- tion Hospital, he pointed ont, was hope- r lessly inadequate, and if there were an ^outbreak of fever in the town they would find themselves in a -ieriou-s situation. But he was prepared to; let even that question stand down for the sake of housing. They contributed < £ ?,000 per annum to the Welsh -N;rmorial AsQ c;,lti)n. What (lif4 that mean? It was dealing with the effects and leaving the cause, mopping up the slot's and leaving the tap running. CHILDREN WANT SCHOOLS. I Aid. Ivor Gwyjiiie said that 150 houses en Town Hill meant 400 children, and they must have a school there. Councillor Williams: 'Xo, no, my fTiend. PMw.e had learned the lesson of their lives during the last,few years, and they were going to restrict the number of children. Children were not going to be brought into the world to grow up like cattle. People wore not going to go on bringimg babi.es up in barns, cellars, and stables as had been doing; they were tired of that kind of life. The motion was carried. ALLEGATIONS OF INFLUENCE. I The ex-Mayor (Aid. J-?n Jonas, cnair- man of the Ect&tes Committee) moved the Teseision yi a portion of a resolution of the Estates C.oromitt in re?id to a imse. Mr. David Williams (St. Thomas) nllo/ed that the position was that because some- body had more influence than others he was favoured, and the Council was oooilv asked to rescind a resolution oalling upon owners to spend money on repairing dilapi- dation. I f they dcl this in one case, they would have to do it in all. and the falling in of property was now an important mat- ter. He moved ilia t the notice be deierred for further information. Aid. Owen seconded. Major Milbournr Williams asked that the estate ngent give what he thought V. on id be »egarded as his perfectly suit- able explanation. The I-:tat) Agent (Mr. Tanbridge), in a lengthy ^tAtement, said the only ques- tion one of procedure in view of there btvrtf u ndei Jeseess. Rescission would not I'lf.'ui waiving ?>nv notyces o.t dilapidations, lut r«tW that they would have a better f,ii ie oo whicti to demand them. Mr. Merreiljj objected to statements im- plying favouritism. Or. the estate agent's s*atiiment ho was quite jsatisficd that the best, interests of thf Corporation were being served. The ex-Mayor assured the Council the committer had shown no preferences, and could give a full and satisfactory explana-1 tion tie was willing that the notice should be adjonrced. ?Th:? was agreed to. ——.

NEW WORLD. j INEW!ORLD.1
NEW WORLD. j I NEW !ORLD. 1 Premier's Picture. A FREE LAND." r4 Co-operation rather than controversy" was the' text of Mr. Lloyd George's address to the Natiopal Brotherhood Congress at the City Temple last night. There was one dramatic point in his speech. Quoting the suggestion of some critic that he is going to be leading counsel,for the old order of things," he Sung up his right hand and in his most s;tirriug tone exclaimed, Ravther than do that I wouki throw up my brief to-mor- j row." This declaration was greeted with lou'd cheers. HUMANITY ON THE MARCH. I Mr. Lloyd George said:— My feeling for the moment i-s that it is a time for oo-operation rather than for controversy. There never was a time in the history of Britain, there never was a time in the history of a distracted and torn world, when the Brotherhood move- ment was more needed than it is at this hour. General Botha, whose death has been a real calamity. stated in his great docu- ment on the league of Nations: •' Humanity has struck it« tents, and is I once more on the march." There never I was a truer 64yiiw than that. There are men who do not realise that the world is on the move. They lack not merely the gilt of imagination, but the -nore ordinary, g,,ft of oberYat;on.. I We have just emerged from one of the most terrible conflicts the world has ever i seen. That could not leave things exactly I where they were. Every disturbance does n.o{ necessarily alter things fundamen- tally. You have 6en grl'a stonns and the eea in rag'Dg tumult aud anger—the waters dashing against the rocks and threatening to sweep over the land—but the configuration of the coast has not been altered. FUNDAMENTAL CHANGES, I I that is true of many political hurn- canes, which some or us have been in bp- fore now, bu,t this was a tidal wave ¡ which swept away landmarks and sub- 'f merged tertitories, and if men who lived on the earth on August 1, 1914, were privileged to revisit it they would not know it to-day. It is no tiee talking about the old I world as if nothing has happened to iLet Two-thirds of Europe was, on August 1, 191 i. governed by Powers which were ap- parently firmly established autocracies. I Where are those, autocracies now ? I Banished I The greatest army of the ages. which was a menace to Europe and to the world, has gone, and yon have I aubsututed for it actually a police It is exactly as if you visited Switzer- land and found that the Matterhorn and » Mont Blanc had disappeared. That is the change which has taken place in the I political configuration of Europe. I There have been other changes; there I | have be^n political changes. You have I very nearly trebled, the electorate of this country. You hhve a change in the I hours of labour of a most fundamental character. I You have had a change in the atti- r of the nation towards problems I like unemployment, and in the sense of obligation on the community that where men are prepared and willing to I work you have no right to Itjt them starve. The changes are fundamental, and in the face of all this, the people I i who sneer at the idea that the world has crumbled are siiupiy silly when they I I think they are superior. NEW SPIRIT IN THE LAND. i A great many more changes will uay« to take place to complete the new pic- ture. Slums liave to go. I hope tnat great arciamenfe will disappear, not merely in Germany. Otherwise millions of gallant men will have bled m vam. I I hope 1 am not trading on the region of ¡ political controversy- if I express the nope tiiat the long-drawn an<t wretched misunderstanding between Irela.nd and the rest of the L■nived -Kingdom will also disappear. I am looking forward to seeing waste —waste of the rez,?rces of the land, a s t-c ii ev?ry shape and tonn-dü.ap-I pear, and a new bnÜun ."pnngiug up, ireed irom iguo:'a?f. treed from in- sobriety, a reàl}yÜee land. freed from penury freed from poverty, freed from  ?qual 0 freed from tyranny of mankind  o?er mankind—a free ?and. Thot,o are men who seem to imagine that I have accepted the position of lead- ing counsel for the old order of things. Rather than do it, I would throw up my brief to-morrow. (Loud and prolonged cheers, 'a, portion of the audience rising and waving hats and handkerchiefs.) f believe that there is a sp'nt m th.s land, a nc.r.? that lps, o?isen froni the sc-cri?c?s of the ?r, that will lead ? t?at land of promise of whicn many of Ils have been dreaming, and whicn I ?ieve is within the reach of us if 'é only hold togethef in t?. great spirit ?of brotherhood. The changes caniiot be effected, as I have been told—and 1 agreo-bv speeches, by congresses, or by leading atticles. There is .nothing to effect these chanegs, believe me, but the steady, patient work of all, by all, for all—that must be done in the spirit, of co-operation, and this movement can help it. Everything depends on the spirit in which these things are attempted. The right spirit in which to begi'n the rebuild- ing of this new lan. worked for' and prayed for, is the spirit of the war; the spirit of comradeship among all classes, the spirit of a passionate desire to see I justice done at all costs, th spirit of deep sympathy with the suffering where- ever they are and whoever (they may be, the spirit of readiness among all ranks to make, if necessary, sacrifices to achieve the right. Why should war always get the best out of mankind and peace always get the poorest ? My heart thrills when the story is told of unselfishness, comrade- ship, brotherhood, valour such as the world has never sèen. self-sacrifice—all placed on the altar of war. Cannot woz get them at'the altar of peacfc? Is peace going to call forth nothing but grasping, greed, avarice, faction, timidity, indul- gence ? J wonder whether any of uSfrealise the obstacles we overcame in making' t K.- war. Unprepared, unready, untutored, in the or four years we became the most formicfeble military Power in the world. /Having overcome gigantic obstacles, do! not let us quake or quarrel before smaller obstacles .1 LEAGUE THE ONLY HOPE. I see no hope for the world except in a strong league of its peoples to enforce peace. Let tho4e men who are devoting their great intellects to finding faults, to dis- covering architectural defects, in the League, to suggest improvements and re- servat.ions-kt them devote their minds, their energies, to make it a reality to begin with. (Chews.) H The only other appeal I have to make for the principles of fair play whith aui. mated those who fought in the war is t'or fair play amongst all classes at home. If Capital and Labour, employer and em- ployed—if each party is determined to exercise its?, .power or its wealth, as the case may be, to extort advantages for itself without reference to what is right aud,fair either to the party or to the com- munity as a whole, that will as truly end in disaster at home for all cla&sce as a similar spirit ended in a great catastrophe abroad for the nations that were animated by it. Xhat ( applies equally, to Capital and to Labour. No man, be lie oiiyfdoyer or be he workman, has a right to say in\reference to the community or toothed.. Am I my brother's keeper? That is the policy of Cain, and not the policy of brotherhood. If ruin were to come from a conflict con- ducted on both sides in that spirit, I know who would suffer. Strong men can always look after themselves in any misfortune that may befall society. It is the average man who would suffer, ad the interest of the vast majority of the people of this country rests ih. establishing a reign of strict fair play between all eJa«es." (Cheers.) 1 1 x i
