GOVILON PARISH COUNCIL.
GOVILON PARISH COUNCIL. SITES FOR HOUSING SCHEME. At a special meeting of the above 011 Tuesday evening, over which Mr. W. J. Pritchard presided, and at which Councillors Nicholls, Bayliss, Hughes, J. Morris, W. Morgan, E. Jones, W. W. Vaughan, C. Gwillym and T. Jenkins were present, it was decided that the Clerk write to Lady Mather-Jackson with reference to the establishment of a district nurse in the village, for the parishes of Llanwenarth Ultra and Citra, and to clear up any possible misunderstanding as to the two parishes. It was also resolved that a parish meeting be calledjand that her ladyship's offer to be present and address the meeting be accepted. A letter was read from the Urban District Council accepting the Parish Council's estimate for 40 houses for the working classes, and asking the Council to suggest sites for the building of same. After some discussion, the following were selected and the Clerk authorised to forward same to the proper quarter :—Near Old Pwlldu Mr. Rosser's field, next to Ty Clyd field behind British School; field between Greenfield Cottages and Troedyrhlw field behind the Dragon the Park, adjoining the Rectory and Church Meadow. It was suggested that no site had been asked for by Garndyrris, and Councillor Bayliss could only suggest that this was because most of the residents there were only too anxious to leave that locality.
I Abergavenny Town Council.
I Abergavenny Town Council. I GAS WORKS QUESTION. I COMMITTEE TO GET A MOVE ON." I MEMORIAL TO THE 3rd MONS. The monthly meeting of the Abergavenny Town Council was held 011 Monday evening, the Mayor (Aid. Z. Wheatley) presiding. There were also present Aid. Col. W. Williams, Alderman Col. Bishop, Councillors W. J. Tong, P. Telford, T. A. Delafield, G. R. Plowman, F. J. Mansfield, Major J. R. Jacob, F. Sadler, A. C. Graham, J. R. Beckwith, R. Iball and W. J. Meale. Taken At Their Word. The Council were invited to appoint delegates to attend a conference in reference to a Welsh National War Memorial. Councillor Jacob proposed that they send two delegates and Councillor Telford seconded. Councillor Tong proposed that the proposer and seconder lie the two delegates. (Laughter). Councillor Sadler seconded and it was carried. I Good Objects. The I'inauiv Committee had considered an application from the Nursing Association for the use of the Mayor's Parlour for their meetings, and it was resolved that it be let on the usual terms. Councillor Graham asked the Council to con- sider the position of the Nursing Association. He thought that all should be treated alike, and that they should have some recognition. The Mayor said it was only right that they should recognise such voluntary institutions who were doing good work. Councillor Graham said he would also like to make an appeal for the Infant Welfare Com- mittee, and he thought they should support their meetings which were to be held at Aberga- venny during holiday week. The Mayor said he had been going to give an invitation to the members of the Council to attend the meetings, and he hoped they would do so, especially on Tuesday, when Viscountess Rhondda was coining. 1 Gas Works The Expert's Report. The Gas Committee's minutes stated that the Town Clerk reported that the Local Government Board had made the Order modifying the pro- visions of the local Acts so that the price at which gas might behold should be such price per 1,000 cu. ft. as would be no more than sufficient, so far as could be estimated before the com- mencement of the period for which the price was charged, to enable the gas undertaking to be carried on without loss during that period, but that the price at which gas should be sold should not at any time exceed 5s. iod. per 1,000 cu. ft. No balance could be carried to the credit of the rates by reason of the gas being sold at more than 5s. per 1,000 cu. ft. Councillor Telford asked if it was the intention, if these minutes were passed, that the increased price should become operative at once. He should also like to ask the Chairman if he would tell them exactly what loss was entailed last year on the Gas Works, and also what this extra iod. would mean. How much, a pproximately, would it bring into the revenue < Councillor Jacob said lie should like to ask if the committee had considered the report of the expert who had inspected the works. Councillor Delafield said that he could give the exact figures asked for by the next meeting. He thought it would be a very good plan if notice of questions were given to him a few hours before, so that he could give the answer straight awav at the Council meeting. It was not fair to a chairman to expect him to give an answer at once to a technical question of that kind. In reference to the increase in price, it was in his mind, as chairman, to call the Gas Committee together to deal with the losses which were anticipated by his friend on the left (Councillor Telford). Possibly they might be able to meet at a very early date and they might call the whole Council together to meet Mr. Kenshole, of Merthvr, who had promised to come down for the purpose. At that meeting they would be able to explain the whole matter and give all the information required. They could take i'L ior granted that they would have to raise the price of gas to cover the increased cost of wages, coal of gas to cover the iiiere? and other things. They had got tenders in for repairs recommended by the expert, and there were repairs which had been brought forward by the Manager from time to time, but which had been shelved Now they would have to face the music and get them carried through. He should like to convey to the ratepayers and the gas con- sumers that .11 hough the Gas Works at the present time was not able to pay its way on account of the enormous expenses which had been laid 0:1 the undertaking, and over which they had no control, they ought to bear in mind the amount of money which had been drawn from the Gas Works for a number of years to assist the rates. The figures were very interest- ing, and some members of the Council might not know that these amounts of money had been taken from the Gas Works' profits. (Councillor Beckwith Here, hear). He was informed that at Widnes it was one of the last things they dreamed of, to take the profits from the gas works towards the relief of'the rates. The Town Clerk They can't do it Profits from the Gas Works. Councillor Delalield said it was a pity that they had been able to do it at Abergavenny If they had not milked the Gas Woirks so much they would now have them in a thorough state of repair and gas would have been sold at a reasonable price to the consumer Those who did not consume gas ought to be thankful for the considera ble assistance they had had from the Gas Works in relief of rates, and there was nothing unreasonable in their being asked to pay towards the cost of the undertaking, which belonged to the whole of the ratepayers. The following were the figures of the Gas Works' profits taken in relief of the rates for some years ;-1899, £1,098 lIS. yd. 1901, ÚJI0 8s. 3d. 1902, /781 4s. 3d. 1903, £ 371 17s. yd. 1904, £ 364 3s. yd. 1906, £ 826 17s. od. 1907, £ S6y 10s. id. 1909, /400 1910, £ 606 19s. 2d. 1911, £ 781 2S. gd. 1912, ^824 15s. and the year before the war, £ 1,000. Therefore the Gas Works had not been a bad paying concern. Alderman Bishop And there has been no lighting rate. Councillor Mansfield said that the Gas Com- mittee had met and considered the report very fully. Councillor Tong said he should like to know if there was anything in the report of Mr. Kenshole which was a surprise to the committee. Councillor Delafield Did you have a report ? Councillor Tong Yes. Councillor Delafield There was nothing in it which surprised me. Councillor Telford said that he noted that the report was given on the gth of May. He thought that the Council might have been called together to discuss the report before this time. There was one thing he took exception to, and that was the chairman's remark that it was not fair to spring questions upon the chairman of a com- mittee. The chairman ought to know exactly what the increase of iod. in the price meant before coming before the Council with such a recommendation, and he ought also to know what loss was entailed. He did not see why he should give notice of a simple question like that. It also came as a surprise to him to know that Mr. Kenshole had been down to meet the com- mittee and not the Council. He did not see why he could not have met the Council straight away and have saved expense. The Town Clerk said he had a conversation with Mr. Kenshole that afternoon, and he was prepared to come any night to meet the Council at 6.30. Councillor Meale said that he had received no intimation of the visit of Mr. Kenshole. The Mayor said he did not know of the visit until Mr. Kenshole had cone. Councillor Jacob said he was still waiting for an answer to his question as to whether the committee had considered the report. Councillor Delafield said they had not. They were waiting for the Council. At the last Gas Committee they went through the report and they said they would like Mr. Kenshole to eiplain certain details, and with that object they ad- journed from the Friday to the Saturday at the Gas Works, and in the meantime Mr. Kyle was asked to request Mr. Kenshole to come down if he could do so. They did not know he would be there until they got to the Gas Works. Mr. Kenshole explained to the members of the com- mittee points in reference to his report, which would probably be more fully explained when he attended before the Council. They had not dealt with the report in any other way than that—to gather information to enlighten other members of the Council when they met together. The Mayor The Council was to fix a night to I go through the report. I Found Out Things. I Councillor Graham said that the committee were entitled to visit the Works without making a report on it. They went there to learn, and they had learned and found out things which they did not know before. They possibly could not know until questions were put to someone who would explain the whole position. There was 110 attempt to throw dust in the eyes of the public. The committee were trying to ascertain the fault, and when they knew they would be glad to be relieved of the responsibility. Councillor Jacob We might ask the com- mittee to get a move on. Councillor Tong said that it was never in- tended that they should have relegated to them the powers of the committee and that the com- mittee should stand aside and say Clear up the j mess yourselves." The position was that the committee were to consider the report, and tell the Council what they thought about it. They were experts, if they did not call themselves so. Councillor Jacob They should give us a lead and call us together when they want us. We must ask them to get a move 011. Councillor Plowman said that if the com- mittee brought up a report of the meeting at the Gas Works the Council could discuss it. Councillor Telford proposed that the para- graph be referred back. Councillor Graham said it was suggested to give monthly reports so that the members of the Council could study them for themselves. As to getting a move on, they had done the best they could. They were anxious to have the matter discussed and ventilated. The Mayor said that Councillor Telford was under a misapprehension. The paragraph did not fix the price of gas. It only gave power to do so. Councillor Telford said he asked the question at the last meeting, and he was given the same answer. In reply to Alderman Bishop, the Town Clerk said that in applying to the Local Government Board for the Order he submitted a report of the finances of the Works for the last few years and what they would probably be next year. They could take it that the increase of led. would be necessary. Councillor Delafield said that he would call a meeting of the Gas Committee to deal with the report, and send a report for the Council to con- sider when they met Mr. Kenshole. The report was adopted, Take Care of the Water. The Sanitary and Water Committee's report stated that the water supply was 417,286 gals. per day, made up as follows :—225,286 gals. per day from IJwyndu and the adjoining springs, and to2,000 gals, per day from the springs recently appropriated. The supply for the corresponding period last year was 532,000 gals. 1 per day. Councillor Tong called attention to the great falling off in the volume of water, and he should like an intimation given to the burgesses that although there was no scarcity there was even- reason to conserve the water and not waste it. Councillor Delafield's Joke. Councillor Delafield asked if Councillor Telford J (chairman oi the committee) could give them ■ information as to the amount produced by a 91}, water rate. (Laughter). C01lEci11or Telford s:lÏrl LOllllcil1or lkb!leld might think he had done a good thing and had 1 him nicely, but that question did not arise on the minutes. < Councillor Trmg: The most useful remark is that they are both overseers and to know it. < The Weighing Machine. Councillor Telford asked when the weighing machine was going to be placed in the Cattle Market. Councillor Plowman said that the matter was under consideration at the last meeting, but nothing was done, as certain questions were being raised as to the machine which was there before. He asked that the matter be not dis- cussed at the present juncture. Councillor Graham Might I ask the com- mittee to get a move 011. (Laughter). Councillor Plowman They do not require to be told to get a move on. Better Receipts at the Castle. Councillor Sadler drew attention to the fact that there was a gain on the receipts at the Castle for April, compared with the same month last year, of {;.)6 7s. 9d. He took it that it was because of the effort of the Attractions Associ- ation. Councillor Tong If you will refer to 1913-4 you will find an increase in the Castle receipts there. Councillor Plowman Much more. II Cl,1l111_llor Tong And no credit dajmc( for it. Councillor Graham pointed out that the com- parison was not quite fair, because the effort at Easter only represented one-third of the year's work of the Associaiion so far as the Castle was concerned. The War Memorial. The War Memorial Committee reported that the cabstand in Frogmore-street was selected as the site for the proposed monument in connec- tion with the War Memorial. The committee decided upon a form of voting paper for the referendum, and the arrangements were left with the Town Clerk to carry out and engage Air. E. H. Restall to deliver and collect the papers. The following were co-opted on this committee to form a General Committee :—The Mayoress, Mr. Gething, Dr. Steel, Capt. White- head, Mr. Foster, Mr. Rawlins, Mr. D. Howell James, Mr. Rosser, Mr. Jacob, Mr. A. Williams, Mr. T. B. Walford, Mrs. Lloyd, Mrs. F. J. Thomas, Mrs. Lane, Alderman Bishop, Coun- cillor G. R. Plowman, Councillor F. J. Mansfield, Councillor Iball, Councillor Beckwith and Coun- cillor Tong. Councillor Jacob asked if the committee had power to select a site for the memorial. His impression was that they were to take a referen- dum as to whether they were to have a monu- ment or a hall or a wing to the Cottage Hospital. Councillor Graham said that there was some- thing wrong with the report. The Mayor said the site was suggested, not selected. The Town 'Clerk said that the idea was to have a monument with any scheme which was adopted. War Memorial to the 3rd Mons. I The minutes of the joint Housing and Markets Committees contained a report with reference to a war memorial to the 3rd Batt. Monmouthshire Regiment. Councillor Sadler said that according to the minutes the Town Clerk reported something, but they did not know what he reported, the Mayor explained something but they did not know what he explained, and Councillor Jacob ex- plained something but they did not know what he explained. He thought they ought to have some more details. Councillor Jacob said this matter originated before Councillor Sadler came on the Council. He was responsible for bringing it forward. The idea originated after the great losses that were sustained by the regiment in May 1915. He had to interview a great number of the relatives of the men, and seeing that there were no graves to mark the places where the men fell, it struck him that the Council should undertake, with other Councils, to erect some sort of monument at Abergavenny, as the headquarters of the regiment, to commemorate the men.who fell at that time and had fallen since. He, with Coun- cillol Graham and Councillor Tong, visited the other Councils and they were all favourable to it with the exception of Abertillery, who said that they refused to pledge themselves as a Council to support it, on the ground that they might be asked to support numerous other memorials for regiments with which local men were connected. I he matter was held up, although it had cue forth to the public that there was to be a me- morial to the ir(I Mons. at Abergavenny. There had been a great change ill the Councils since then. On his fet urn from service they invited the Councils to meet them, and they had repre- tative-i from Blaiua, Nantyglo and Tredegar. They quite agreed to support the object, but they wanted to get the support of the other Councils before they opened a subscription list. The meeting was adjourned to June 25th to enable certain of them to interview other Councils with a view to getting unanimous support lor this object. Councillor Mansfield asked if it was to be con- fined to men who joined the 3rd Mons. and if other men were to be excluded, it so. it would create a good deal of feeling. The Mayor said that the memorial would be confined to men of the 3rd Mons.. but the town memorial would represent all the men. Councillor Tong Abergavenny is chosen in this special case because it is the headquarters of the regiment. Stealing from the Allotments. It was decided to re-elect the Allotments Committee. Councillor Mansfield said he was glad to see that the \vater had been carried to the Hereford- road side of the allotments. Some of the allot- ment holders had still to carry water a long distance, and he thought it would be a great convenience to have the water laid to the centre of the allotments. Councillor Meale said there were a large number of soldiers coming back and they wanted allotments. He did not think it was fair that some people should have three or four pieces. He knew some people who had two pieces and had not a chick nor child. The Mayor Can you tell us any applicants who have been unable to get ground 5 Councillor Meale Yes Councillor Graham: There are applicants who cannot get ground, and some people have got ground irregularly. COllllcillor Graham said that the'allotment holders asked that a fence should be erected alongside the footpath, in view of the fact that a considerable quantity of produce had been stolen and dogs could get all over the ground. Councillor Jacob said that there was a heavy penalty for stealing from the allotments, and he thought the police should be notified. Finding Them Work. Councillor Tong proposed that the standing orders relative to the appointment and con- stitution of committees -be suspended until November 1st, 1919. They had an alderman and a councillor back amongst them who were anxious to give their services on some of the j committees, where it was absolutely needed. 1 Councillor Telford seconded and the proposi- tion wa» carried. It was agreed that Alderman Bishop and Coun- cillor Jacob be appointed 011 the Finance and Gas Committees. Councillor Graham said the standing orders needed thoroughly revising and he thought the Standing Orders Committee should meet im- mediately for the purpose.

I Alfred Williams, collier, of Clvdach, was sum- moned for driving a motor-cycle without a licence, for having the rear m;mher plate ob- scured, and also for failing to stop when re- quested to do so, on the 31st ult. P. C. r. rcli said defendant had another man on the trailer and his coat obscured the number I plate. Witness called to defendant twice, hut lie would not stop, and he then called to some civilians to stop him and they held up their hands in the road. On Sunday last he saw de- fendant, who said he could not hear him, but in witness's opinion he could not help but hear him. Defendant admitted that he had not got a licence, but said he was going to apply for one. Defendant was fined £ 1 for each offence, or A in all. Not Himself. I Edward Lowe, collier, of Tredegar, and for- merly a farm labourer at Abergavenny, was summoned for stealing three pints of milk, value 3d., the property of Arthur Rogers, Red Barn Farm. Dr. Grey, who prosecuted, said the defendant had given the police a lot of trouble with regard to the service of the summons, and lie promised Supt. Thomas that he would be there punctually, that day. He must know that a case of larccnv could not be dealt with in his absence. Mrs. Lowe said her husband had been suffer- ing from shell shock and was not himself at the time. P.C. Calder said that on the 30th lie saw the defendant coming from the direction of the farm with a can under his coat, which lie said con- tained a pint of skimmed milk which he was allowed. Witness, however, found that the can contained three pints of fresh milk. Defendant afterwards admitted taking it. A warrant was issued for defendant's appear- ance, to be suspended for seven days.
