MARGAM COUNCIL. I EFFORT TO. ST!MULATE I RECRUITING. I At the Mars am District Council meet-iog on Monday, Yr. Bees Llewelyn presiding, in accordance with a notice of motion, Y.V. Godfrey LipaconA), J.P moved: That In view of the oerlou6 military position this Council appoint a committee to consider what steplõ can usefully be tiken to stimu- late recruiting in the district." j The proposer said that he did not intend I, making a reemiting sp,h. a? many ex ceilent opeeo"- on that subject had re-I cently been delivered in the town and d?'' trict. In face of the present er.trem&ty grave and serious military conditions they ought a-a a public authority to do some- thing to asjsi.it the country. At the last monthly meeting of that Gojmcii a motion was brought forward in regard to the betber scale of pay for the soldiers, their wivee, and dependents, aud he had sup- ported that motion as bou>ed on a, fair and right principle. Ho had on that occasion I made some observations on the urgency < f recruiting, but those obeel-vationt) had never been reported in the Pre<"=!. However, the Preas of the country generally had frasped the situation, and had done very food service indeed. In this great national trifeis there were two aspects involveJ-the present military position and the young men concerned in the safety and security of the country. In that district there were several young men of a, recruiting age who had no real reason for not assisting their I country yone of them wanted to fight. and no one desired to shed blood, but the honour of the country -tnd the integrity of the nation itiae to be maintained. lie contended that In face of cuch facts as these, and tho tirgent demands for the country's cause, it should be the bounden duty of every ser- viceable young man to country in its present extreme difficulties. Thought- ful men looked forward with great serious- ness ae to what the future will bring forth, and aa a public body they &hculd in oyery way encourage a.d give the young men a. lead as to their duty. lie did not believe that any young man wanted to be a thirker, and when the war was over theee young men would kick themselves, and also U,3 for not assisting them to respond to the call of duty. Up to the present our fighting forces had dotie i-emarkably well, but it bad been cfumes touch and go with them I through lack of adequate assistance, and it seemed to him a terrible thing that these gallant men should be left without every cfstetance tho county could provide. He had seen it officially stftt-ed that 75 per cent, cf the men who had already unlisted were married men. whilst 2,509,000 men lclr recruiting age in tho oountry had never gone near the recruiting station, 'ihat was certainly not aa it eho'iid be. Ht; felt that tho Council could not be flnylh.ng out- unanimous on this cjufcst.on at a moment of such extreme gravity to the nation. MIen wer urgently warned, and ftliouild endeavour to do his best to get those men. Mr. Edward Iiowthai Kecondml and said thawt he fully a;oGed with the obaervations of the proposer. The &, uncil should do aU in their power to encourage the young men or the district to join the colours. They in that district had nret with considerable eucoees, but t-hey had still e, great work be- fore them to do all in their power to supply men for the depleted ranks 0: their army, and for this purpose a. committee should be appointed. Major Gray supported. It had often been touch and go with their fighting forces, and unless many more men could be supplied tbo pqeition was very critical. He could not nnderstand young men hesitating at such a momemt when their duty was so plain. NT r. G. E. Llewellyn: We should certainly do all we can to support recruiting. Yr. T. iMadnwzlring (Labour) said that he thought he was one of tie young men alluded to by Mr. Lip»oomb. He was not going to enter into a diecueaiou on the jus- tice or injustice of the war. He. however, wished to distinctly dissociate himself from Mr. Lipscomb's ramarks or from any resolu- tion (hat might be pa.s-&ed, 1' had certain. IKditical opinions, as they knew. and on lie was opposed to war in time of peaoe, and he also with a spirit of consistency oppcsed it in time of war. Even jf he felt that. & time was cciae fcr ary such action, he should hesitate to outrage his Arm ocnvictioa?. Re. however. *a« im- pr<'Med by the remarks of Lord Kitchener, l -who had m"d th?t the Government we?e quite satisfied with the return of men I General French had also shown that matters were not so bad as they hsd bftti painted. he would rather meet any con* sequences than engage himself ill euch an e-rmed movement- TIe would never take up arms asrainst a, fellow-man, and rether than do so, he wculd prefer being shot down him- 8e-}f. ilr. Harry Da.vies (Labour) said he was precisely in the same posit i011 ao tho last speaker. He deplored the fact that they were trying to turn the Council into a re- cruiting meeting. As far as the working classes were concerned, the pay of the soldiers, their wives and dependents, f-honld bemr.de adequate, and then there would be no. necessity for the Council to take up the question' of recruiting. Mr. Lipseomb said that ho did not mean, a; was suggested, any sly cut at any young man sitting at that table. Mr. Ii). Nicholas said that he agreed that they should do all in their power to en- courage recruiting, and so uphold the power and prestige of the country, and not have it reduced to the odious domination of Germany. I Mr. Richard Evans (Labour): I strongly support the motion, and think we should do all w« possibly can to encourage re- cruiting. We are always proud to eing "Land of Our Fathers." and that being so. we should do all we can to induce young men to join the colours. The resolution was carried. Mr. Mainwaring and Mr. Harry Davies iefraine,d from voting. A strong recruiting committee was after- rards formed as follows:—The Chairman, Ceaars. G. Lipsooinb, Major T. Gray, E. nowther. G. E. Llewellyn. Ll. Nicholas, and Eichard Evans. Mr. W. Lewis said that they must not for- get those that had already gone to the front. There were some hundreds from that district. He understood that what was being done in Aberavon for sending the soldiers Christmas comforts was meant for \beravon alone. He had even heard it said Uxat Mr. Lipscomb had declined to have ariytliini: to do with the Aberavon Fund. He was desirous that something should be done, and he was authorised to say that £20 realised at a recent concert would be handed to the committee to send Christmas oomforts to the soldiers. Mr. Reps Llewellyn said that neither he, as Chairman, or Mr. Lipscomb. bad been bpproaohed on the matter, and there was no truth in the rumours which had been voiced by the District Recruiting Agent. They had £100 in hand over the Eefugee Fund that could be made the neuclus of a fund for Eoldiera' and sailors' comforts. The matter was referred to a committee. A letter was read from tbe medical officer (JDr. J. H. Davies. M.D.) pointed out that through tho outbreak of scarlet fever in tho district it had been nøc ay to order the closing of tho Central and Eastern Schools, j '■IW "J A » f — -L.1IU* jm I | It had been further recommended that the teachers of the affected aciiools should not. be omployed in other schools for feax of infection. This had been submitted to the county authority, but it hu,d been ignored, and teachars from tho affected 3chools were employed in ÜH outeide echoole. Mr. ilces Liowellyu: It is considered by this Council that it. is not tiesirafcie that teaohere from aifccied schools ehouJd 1- I employed, but Dr. James had disregarded j the re^oouB^ndation. It was reao?Tp.d that & farther lette.r be [ written to the .G-lamorgaa Education Goto- !mtLee again expifi?.ing rbo Council's dc- sirability thit teachcrs from affected I tichooio should not be employed. • [ The Gas Committee reported that they 1 recommend that the thanks of the Conncil he tendered to Mr. Eykii (;;8<6 manager) for the expeditious manner in whkh the new works had been brcught into operation and the til-at satiifactory result of the firft 1 production of <I.lJO.O the manuer in; which the transfer of the supply from the; Aberavon Corporation had been effected ) without, causing any inconvenience to thoj public, which might reaeojiably have been i expected. 1 Mr. Waa. Lewis: T am especially glad to i see that tho committee has desired to show their appreciation of the EM :mant2r. The eulogies were wfU mented. and the congratulations of ? public body to a public onicial wae one of the higher tF?iTCLoni?is it wa? po*.ible to get. Mr R?CM had worked mo?t assidnou&Iy, and bhown marked ability in bringing the new works to such [ a, state of perfection in the short time of I' se\ en months. He moved that this official tribute to the gas manager should bo given in letter form, and receive tha official seal of the Council. Mr. Tal Mainwaring seconded. Thie was unanimonsljr agreed to. The Medical Officer (Mr. J. II, PavifS, rpported that. during the month of November there "were registered 44 birthe- 22 boys and 22 girls—giving a birth-rate of 34.06 rer 1.0C0 per annum. The number of deaths during the same period was 1.3, giving & death-rate of 15.93 per 1,000 per annum, as compared with 85 for corres- ponding month cf last year.

A letter was read from the Free Church l Council drawing the Council's attention to the prevalence of heavy drinking amongst women, and urging the Council to tike steps by appointing a watch committee. I It was rciiolved to reply tba.t the Council had no authority in the matter. The Gas Committee recommended that the price of gaa he 3s. 6d. per 1,000 feet until March ilst next, when the question will be j again further considered.—This was agreed to. In accordanre with an adjourned notice motiou, Mr. Kees LlevvoUyti (chairman) moved that application be made to tho Local Government Board to revise the eani- tiry bye-law having reference to the keep- ing of swine by private owners, and to re- duce the limit for keeping piga from 100 feet to 50 feet in the areas suggested by the committee whjch had been appointed to consider the matter. The mover pointed out that. it was in- tended that the new bye-law should only apply to the rural and outlying districts. This was unanimously agreed to. It was resolved to affix seal to mortgage I to Mies Talbot to secirre £2000, and further I advances and interest after the rate of ( £ 3 Ite. per cent, per annum. A unanimouit vote cf thanks was accorded Miss Taibot for her kindness. Mr. Rees Llewellyn intimated that be was pleased to say that a collection between the members of the Counoil for Christmas I cheer for tha children at the Sanatorium had realised two guineas.

A PAIN IN THE FOOT. I Northampton Shoe-hand Warned by the I Magistrates. The case of the snooting of a Swansea I Territorial, Thomas Nicholls, a member of the Army Service Corps, in the street at Northampton again inquired into at -the Northampton Borough Police Court. John William Britten (19), shoe-hand, Northampton, was charged with unlaw- fully wounding Nicholls by shooting him with a revolver in Bryan-street at 6.30 p.m. on Monday. November 9th. Thomas Nicholls stated that he heard a report and felt a pain in his foot. Turn- i!g' round, he saw defendant,, who said, 1 was just trying this," and showed him a revolver. Witness felt something warm in his foot and found blood oozing from his boot. Defendant ran away, and witneaa was taken to the hospital. Edward Davis, a private in the Army Service Corps, who also hails from Swan- sea, said he was in a house in Bryn- street, with companions, when they heard I a report, but took no notice of it, aa they thought it was a firework. Scon after they heard moaning, and upon open ins the front door Nicholls fell in. I Dr. Margaret Smith, a house surgeon at, Northampton Hospital, said there was a wound in Nicholls's leg iust above the ankle bone. There was no fracture, nnd tLe bullet was found. At the time of the accident the injury was serious, but she did not think it would have any per- manent effect. Police Constable Sparrow said defend- ant. when apprehended, said it was an accident. He added that he was putting two cartridges into the revolver when it went off. Defendant was dismissed with a strong warning.

FARMERS AND -WAR. GENERAL HFLUS-JOHNES RESIGNS. A ppoech ma,de by Mr. D. If. rl;hornas, I auctioneer aud cataic agent, Carmarthen, before the Carmarthenshire Chamber of Agriculture recently, in which-refei-i.-ing to recruiting—he stated, that it was the duty of farmers' sons to reruaiu at home to cul- ti.at.a the farms, and thus render national senioo by making secure the food supply cf the country, iia/i a sequel at a meeting of the council of thf Uhited Couh- ties' Asrricnltural •- Society a.t the Boar's I Head Hotd,Cannarthcu, ou Saturday, when a letter wns, read from Lieutenant- General Sir B.ili&-Jolines, V.O., G.C.B.. resigning his niembei'siij# of H the | society- I Sir James stated that after Mr. Thom.ivi'fi sptech at the Chamber ,of Agriculture he felt be could no iSuger support a society I of which he (Mr. Thoma-s). as secretary, was one of its chief officials, and, there- fore, ho had decided to resign his member- ship of the society. He (Sir James) feared that many farmers' sons held the views 1h.r. Tooinas liaki e\pureed- He could not utr deratand Low any loya'- subject could tell young mea that they could not go to the iiont, and that they were doing equally I loyal service to their King and country by staying at home on tho farm. No cne (added. Sir James) wanted the farms to be left neerlected, hut the young men who could be spared should join the colours, .and many farmers' eons oouid very well oe spared. The sooner we sent fresh troops to the front the sooner the war would be over. itio Chairman (Mr. R. H. itarnee, J.P.), said they were all. extremely sorry to hear the letter. Sir Jamas wae a fine soldior aud a groat man. lie hid taken the keenest interest in agriculture. The extorts Sir James had made to get recruite in the present crisis could not be surpassed by any man in the country. Mr. D. n. Thomas had taken upon himself to o:l.ddrff-E'l a few farmer?. No one was more patriotic than Mr. Thomas, and, perhaps, Sir James had taken hia rema rks in the. wrong light. As a nutter of fact, he (Mr. Harriea) did not know that Mr. Thomas had eaid anything wrong. There were certain farmers' sons who could be 6i?a,r?d to join tLp Army, but farmers' eons could not be 6parcd at the expense of allowing the land to go uncui- tiv.ited. That would be a national loss. He proposed that they write to Sir James to aak him to re-oonsider hie decision. Mr. Evan James (Manoravon), eveconding, eaid that probably Sir James did net look at the matter through the same specs." as Mr. Thomas did. Both Sir James and Mr. Thoju&s were right. They knew farmers' sons were wanted at the front; they were also wanted on the land-,whic-h was deteriorating very fa-st-to produce food for the people. Mr. D. H. Thomas said he wae eorry that his action t3l7iLUld affect the society. He did not think Sir James saw his point in the same light as he himself did. At the same time, every man had a right to his own opinion, and if he-expressed a different view he oucht not to be dona" for it. Of course, every farmer's son who could be epared ought to join the Army. He respected Sir James now as he did be-fore, for he W.1.S one of th%^flW|est •cfcafaictem''n the country. Sir JameS as a past presi- dent, had given great assistance to the society, and hardly missed a meeting of the Council. There was no member whose lose he wculd deplore more than Sir James's, .ind he sincerely trusted that they would not lose him. The motion to ask Sir James to re-oon- sider hi* decision was carried unanimously.

A German ofticel, 's daring attempt to I escape, concealed m ? big p"eking casu, from Hie conccntratioQ camp at DarehRS- ter was*'frustrated on Saturday by the iucre- accident d ? porter handling too freight.  Wa,,F-,fru,?ti-atcd c,ii I)v the I A number of elderly alien.s who for some j A number of elderly al?n? who for some time had been interned at DorchestN were being conveyed ?o the boat v.hicu would take them to ?tterdam, whence ) they could enter Germany- They were all over military ag(. aud, they were under < the care of a military guard. They had} come by train from Dorchester, and when j Tilbury was reached they weco put on board the ferry-boat Catherine to await I the arrival of the Batavier II., bc&ind for j Rotterdam, which was on its way fromi the Customs House quay. I As soon as the prisoners had boarded j| the liner the stnff began the shipment of I the baggage. Beneath a great pile of l packages t hat had '?ccrtmul&tpd Hi the l cenh<e of the gangway below the bridge ?,was a larg? packicg-c&e? rather larger | than those which ar?u?osUy employed for j the carriage of pianos. V It had stencilled on the outeide, Non- J| poiSOIlúUBfeoty matches with » dia- j mond and a large D n in the centre. j The case was fastened in front with two j clasps, one being secured by a padlock and the other by a wooden clutch. On the top was half a label, bearing the wards, Via Hambro," and some inde- cipherable blue pencil marts- The lid was joined to the body of the box by two strongly-made brass hinges- The caoo waA a heavy one. and the porters found the easioot way to handle it was to roll it over and over on the deck. By this means it was moved along the whole length of the boat to the Batavier II., now lJ 1ng alongcide. 1 The rough handling proved the undoing of the German plotter. Suddenly those on I deck were surprised to see the arm of a man protruding through a hole in the lid I of the case. The Dutch sailors on the Batavier excitedly approached Captain Jewiss, of the Catharine, and, pointing to the box, called out in broken English. Man in box; man in boxCaptain Jewiss at once wrenched off the lid of the box, and inside it disoovered a man lying huddled up in a semi-conscious condition. Two of the armed sentries who were on board in charge of a batch of deportees were called, and after some delay the mysterious occupant of the box was es- corted to the captin't'I cabin. At first he .pretended he could not speak English, and refused to answer questions; but later, confronted by the Alien Emigration officer and the captain, he frankly con- fessed, in good English, that he did un- der&tand the language and could 6peak it quite well. He admitted to them that his name was Otto Koehn, and that he was a lieutenant in the German army. He said he had been to America, that he had returned in the Potsdam shortly before the outbreak of war. and that later he was arrested on reachina Southampton, and interned in a camp at a xchcster. He is a man of medium height, with fair hair, and wears pince-nez. There can he no doubt that the at- tempted escape was the outcome of a very clever plot arranged by the prisoners in the Dorchester camp. A large packing ease, which had contained Swedish matches, was obtained, and strong brass hinges, hasps," and a padlock were fixed on it when it became known that a num- ber ot aliens over military age were to be sent home. Elaborate preparations had been made for his comfort during his enforced con- naeroent. Arm-rests had been fastened to the sides of the box, and a cushion I provided made of a thick rug. A bottle containing cocoa was also found in the box, in addition to some bananas and other food. How Koehn got into the box is not laiown, bfit the box must have been i placed with the luggage of the other i prisoners and sent to the train without any suspicion being aroused. For some 15 hours the box must have remained with the other luggage in the van. Koehn, who was sent to the Gravesend Police Station, refused to make any statement except to declare that he shut himself in the box and locked himself in Iwitbout assistance. He added, "I would- rather be f-hot than undergo that ordeal ,-again. -When he was searched about Z-1 was found in his possession.
