I_TOWN -HILL.
I TOWN HILL. Position Regarded As "Almost Calamitous." 'liie dtadioek in the Swansea housing programme, consequent upon the deter- mination of the contract announced on Saturday, continues in the absence of a communication roquested by wire, from the Ministry of Health. In circles closely acquainted with the portion, the present situation-is regarded as almost calamitou.
LLANELLY SHIP.
LLANELLY SHIP. Question of Owner's Liability. In the Admiralty Court to-day before Mr. Justice Hill, William Waddle Coomb of Llamelly, owner ot the ."reamship Afon Lliedi claimed to limit his liability in respect of damages arising out of a col- lison between Afon Lliede, and the Liver- pool steamer Wild Rose, in th Bristol Channel on April 9th last. The Wild Rose was, damaged, and four of he crew, including the chief engineer, lo;t their livs.. Subsequently the Afon Lliede was pronounced liable as to two-thirds of the damages, and the Wild Ikwe as to one- third. DECREE GRANTED. His Lordship gran;etl a deenc limiting the liability of the plaintiff to £ 7,171, | being the aggregate amount of t 8per ton of the Afon Lleidi tonnage in respect of damages to ship and goods, and directed them to give bail for £ 5,000 in respect of loss of life claims.
FEDERATION AND i COMRADES.…
FEDERATION AND COMRADES. Proposed Amalgamation The special conference of the National Federation, presided over by Captain W. H. Williams on Saturday, decided unani- mously to form North and South Wales into t4vo separate regional councils for the puipose Of administration. The delegates were received by the Deputy-Mayor (Aid. P. Molyneux), who was accompanied by Captain Sinclair (son of the Mayor). Addresses were delivered by Mr. Silyn Roberts and Captain Evans, representing the Ministry of Labour Training Depart- ment. In the evening a meeting of the local branch was held, under the presidency of Mr. C. R. Daniel, when Captain Williams, Mr. Skelton, Mr. W. Jones, and Mr. W. T. Francis spoke. AN AMALGAMATION. ] Interesting spceelles, mentioning the new Sorvicemen's Union and the suggested amalgamation of the Federation and the Comrades, were made at a mass meeting at Mond Buildings, Swansea, on Sunday afternon, at which Mr. C. B. Daniel (chairman of the Swansea branch), was supported by the National president (Captain W. H. Williams, of Newport) and natioaal officials, and by Lieutenant- Colonel Dyson B. Williams,\ D.S.O. eMf. Thomas Harris (general secretary of the. Welsh Federation) spoke of the urgept necessity of ex-Service men being united, and indicated that definite pro- posals might be expected before long as a result of the conversations between the Comrades and the Federation. The dead men's widows and children were not going to lyj properly looked after unless they, who had been fortunate enough to come back, did pull together. Such work was their sacred privilege. Mr. Skelton (organiser of North Wales distrtct) pleaded that the co-operation of ex-Sorvice men should be for other than materialistic ends—should have ideals of citizenship and freedom such as had prompted them during the war. In their absence bureaucrats, sluggards and lim- pets with no ideal but their pockets, had become part of the national life, and were reactionary to every ideal of the ex- Service men. They wanted to make Britain somethng far greater than it was to-day; ihey had only "partially attained its moral regeneration. I THE NEW UNION. In a lengthy and interesting speech "he president (Captain W. H. Williams) argued that if only to see that. existent laws were administered they should co- operate. With all the pessimism and de- fects there was still a common-sense that would enable them to fare the difficulties of the future. He spoke of the candour of the people who admitted that the new union was political ,hul argued that such further separation could only alienate public syuiuathy. In conclusion, Mr. Williams defended his strike manifesto [ which caused dissent, and explained that he had in vtew no support of the Govern- ment. hut only a preservation of law and order, and there was no communication from the Premier to him before its issue. The meeting expressed satisfaction. LieutenantColonel D. B. Williams ex- pressed pleasure at heing assoeiated with the organisation, and pleaded for a unity which would ultimately result in one solid body.

Mr. Hdward Harris moved that the Council ayprove the 6tep suggested hy the Trust, and Mr. Lovell seconded. The Council unanimously agreed, Mr. David Williams remarking that Mr. Beck (whose business ability or faith in the future of the port nobody questioned) was confident that tho Trust would revive and repay all that was due. The Cardiff City Council asked the Council to support a resolution that, in view of the great permanent local and national burdens of housing, the Govern- ruent be called' upon to take more drastic and effective measures to reduce the cost of building materiahs by the prevention of profitcering- by producers, manufac- turers. or others, or the holding up of commodities; helping the return of work- men to t.he building trade; and by pro- hibiting luxury building.—The Council agreed. Mrs. Trevall.\n wrote resigning her posi- tion as member of "the Swansea Food Con- trol Committee. The resignation was ac- cepted, and it was decided to invit4? Mrs. KllY to fdl t? Tac?ncy. j

General Dyer Explains Detailed accounts arc now for the first time available of the events in the riots in India in April last, when 600 persons were kille dand about 1,000 wounded, and which form the suhject of an investi- gation at Lahore presided over by Lord Hunter.

His object was to disperse the crowd, and he was going to fire until they were dispersed." The General acknowledges, however, that "It is quite possible I could have dispersed the crowd without firing, but they would have come back a-jain and laughed, and I should have made what I consider a feel of mvself."
