ARRIVED TOO LATE.
ARRIVED TOO LATE. L.G.B. REFUSE TO SANCTION WHAT HAS ALREADY BEEN PAID. SWANSEA DILEMMA At a meeting of the Swansea Finance Committee on Thursday, Mr. H. Mac- donnell presiding, a letter was read from the Local Government Board refusing sanction for the purchase of a new motor nre engine costing 91,135. Mr. W. H. Ashmole (Borough Trea- surer), however, had to announce that the engine had already been paid for. The estimates, which showed a reduction on last year. were approved. Tho committee agreed to a recommenda- tion of the Parliamentary and General Purposes Committee) to give Mr. C. A. Broadhead (acting Borough Architect) an honorarium of JM per month during the time Mr. Morgan (Borough Architect) was on active service. Mr. Miles said they would then be saving EI90 a year. The Borough Treasurer, in regard to the increase of the pay of the police, said that the roembors of the force were now in exactly the 53.mü position as the rest of the Coroporation staff. Tie thought the resolution of the Wotch Committee might, be allowed to stand on its merits. The matter wou ld come before the Council The committee 11ml.. before them a re- commendation from the Highways Com- mittee as to re-organisation of staff in I the Borough Surveyor's department. Mr Aefhmole said it would mean an increase of £ 227 per annum. I "Staggering." I Aid- G. Col-will said, comparing the staff with what it was ten years ago, it aimply ^Jipgercc! one, and when they looked at the increase in the mileage jt was almost as puzzling as the estimates. The motion was deferred. Accounts were pae«e-:l for payment amounting to 123,122 7s. 10d. Mr. Ashinole reported that lie had ar- ranged. for renewal of mortgage for £7,000 ¡.at 4 per cent., which was an increase of 1 per cent. Mr. Ashmole also reported that the Free Library 'Committee had agreed to reduce their estimates for the coming year po fhat. they should not exceed .Tear so t l i,(-- S2,OM. aDd l?hat ay 6urplus income over¡' expenditure be transferred to the reduc- I tion of the debt. The Sinking Funds. Mr. Ashmole further reported the re- sult of circularising municipal corpora- tious on the question of postponement of sinking funds.. A dozen corporations had passed re- solutions agreeing with them, and he happened to know that other corpora- tions had done the sam" thing. There were about nine corporations who said emphatically tltey did not agree, not necessarily because they did not agree with Swansea Council's principle, but because there was no necessity in their case, as trade had actually im- jjroved. Ur. Askmole said the Board would not give a general postponement to everybody, and the municipal corpora- tions would not ask fbem, all s c- in some cases there had heen a great im- prf)verti(,.nt-. in trade. Mr. W. W. Holmes: The whole thing is satisfactory as it shows an improvement in trade. Mr. P. Molyneux: Not io all places. No Extra Burdens Wanted. Mr. Asbmole, asked for his opinion, said he did not. share the apprehensions of some of the Town Clerks. Some of the Corporation seemed to think it might have a bad effeet-might influence them in the stock market and things of that sort. He thought the opinion expressed in some places were due to want of appreciation of the terms on which stock was raised. Hfc could not say what harm it would do to any stockholder. Replying to a question, Mr. Ashmole said about a dozen Corporations, accord- ing to the report, were in favour of the postponement of the sinking funds. Reply- ing to Mr. Miles, he said they did not sup- port. the proposal because it was no good to them. Mr. Miles said it seemed to him unfair to saddle people with burdens at the pre- sent timwhich they were unable to bear. They should either do something in the I direction of the suspension of the sinking fund or capitalise the amounts that could he proved as being entirely due to the war. Mr. A Sinclair said that, up to the pre- sent time, they had not been economically injured to any great extent, and lie was in favour of letting the matter drop. On the motion of Mr. Holmes, it was decided not to proceed further in the matter at present.

JOFFRE AND FRENCH ♦
JOFFRE AND FRENCH ♦ STRIKING PEN PICTURES OF THE TWO GREAT SOLDIERS. THE DAILY ROUND Illuminating sketches of General Joffre ajul Six John french appears in "The Times." The picture of GeneTea Head- quarters is not that conjured up by the average outsider! A visit to General JoffTe, save for the preaoenoe of one or two orderlies at it-he gate, is jusrt an ordinary visit to a<n ordinary hotel," says the correspondent. Pe-re Joffre, who hae the deetmiee of France in his hands, received me at the appointed hour to itlie minute in a tiny room with & long- marrow table covered with a white felt top, probably 16ft. long by lZft. wide, perfectly plain, and most likely one of the secrvturfs' offices in the hotel daye of the hotel where hiis headquarters a.re situalted." In thie little room, whore the General arrives at. 6.30 a.m., and. leaves for bed, no matter what happens, at 9 p.m., conferences 81M Iraki, dispaitchres discussed, orders given. General Joffre stja-ye all the time at Head- quarters, aare about onoe a week, when he goes to the front to inspect the troops or to see Generals. A very efficient telephone service renders his departure from Head- quaarbens unnecessary. Orders for pirocedore at the batUie of the MaJrne bad been already drawn up on August 27th for the action which begwn on September 5th. He pondered them ail out, and then pieced the whole bottle together bit by hit, like a, delicate piece of mechanism which, wh-en the time oamie, ran like clock- work." Commanding Personality. j Joffne wears a paJe blue or tunic, of very a.m-ple proportiom, no decora- tions, save thiree gold 9ta.rs on his arm and on the cuffs, and the red trousers with the black st/ripe. As that great, grey head rose from the writing table the, impression of the mom upon me was that of msussiveness The great head of Joffre, the iron chin, the Idnd. mther gad eyes, are quite unlike the photographs and equally unlike our stupid notion of what we call the average French- man.' Pere Joffre is from the Eivesaltes, in the Pyreneee-Orientales, and, he speaks slowly, and with no more gesture th&n a Scotchman, in the rich accent of the midi." St;rong, patient, resolute, sad-eyed, his personality is only gradually getting known in his own France." Where Sir John Lives. I "Sir John French is an old friand, but the John French of the club, the drawing room, and the hunting field and the French of the great w.-ir are two entirely different per- sonalities. The war alters all who enter upon it. It has profoundly affected i.ot only the character, but even the very ap- pearance of those who have been through it since Mona. Sir John is a little greyer than he before the war. But the man is the picture if health, and' how much to day depends upon the health of Joseph Joffre and John French." Like Joffre, French is extremely methodic in his habits, and the daily round of the two men is very similar, except e. at Sir John lives the life of ap simple English country house in the unpretentious dwell- ing of the leading lawyer of a small French town. I can vouch for it, that life at British Headquarters is as unpretentious as is f ir John French himself: the easy breakfast, without formality, of English life, the lunch —as often as not a paper packet cf sand- wiches eaten in a motor-car out near the trenches—a good simple dinner, qnickiy dis- posed of. and bed for some by ten and a long night's work for other;, each to his appointed task, but a long day cf incessant work." It is not too much to say that Sir John French is as idolised by the troops in Flan- ders as is General Joffre by the men in fhe long, long line that starts from Switzerland. Nor is it a misuse of words to state that in the opinion of his German enemies, and cur French and Belgian Allies. Sir Tohn ) French's tactics in the great battle of t Ypres place him in the ranks of the i greatest of commanders.'
