PACIFIST MINISTER FORCED TO LEAVE STAGE. Pontard.'we commenced the celebrations on Saturday with a hugs procession from the Public Ilau to the Recreation Ground, where a united service wae held. About 1.500 people took part in the parade, which was h-aadel by the Alltwen Silver Band (conducted by Mr. Ben Ivor Davies-, the local 6ailors (in. charge of Petty Officer Wm.

All the streets and principal buildings had been gaily decorated. As the procession passed the new Home of the discharged and demobjl'sed sailors and soldiers in LI ight-street, the salute was taken by Captain Co'eon. On arriv-al at the field the procession lined up In fron: of the platform, as the lievs. Joel Davies (vicar), who acted as conductor, L. G. Lewis (Adulam), D. G. Jones (Zoar). George Griffiths (rector of Cilybebyll), H. Seiriol Williams (Taber- nacle). J. R. Price (Rhvdyfro), Pugh Jones (Wqlrh Wesleyan), and T. E V :.ters took up their positions on the! ;)!;j form.. i PRdTEST AGAINST PACIFIST. One of the last to step up on the plat- form was the Rev. Llewellyn Boyer, yasior of Danygraig Congregational- chapel, aud who identified h'mseif very prominently during the war with the; i'ociust movement. In less than five minutes two ofifcers, Lieut. T P. Francis and Captain Harold Jones, ajxpeared near the plat- j U-im, and addressing the Rev. Llewellyn 1 Aiyer the former said he had been a&ked the soldiers and ex-soldiers and L-ailors to request him to leave the platform. Rev. L. Boyer: But I have had an in- itation to come here from the Soldiers and Sailors Welfare Association. Lieut. Francis: Those are our orders :;nd unless you leave there will be no 'I service. The Vicar appealed to the officers that the service should proceed, and forget everything for the moment. Rev. L. Boyer: I would not have come ..4,ere unless I had received an invitation. p" u "1 nTl1_ T '4'- n. „ iirv • j_L.

At this stage there wera shouts of "Chuck hi'll off in The Vicar again endeavoured to pacify • those present by asking them to "let C bye-gones be byegones, whilst the Rev. L. Boyer held up a letter in viting him to take part in the celebrations. Again came the shouts of Chuck him "S, and a? order was given to FaJl ••vat I" j Scores of the ex-EoMiers were in an ■' instant on the About turn," and were i-tlarching off wheu the Vicar turned to the Rev. L. Boyer And asked h,,ra if he would kindly retire. A Voice: Get him off aid don't epoil the service. ;1. The Rev. L. Boyer then left the plat- form, and was followed by the Rev. H. Seiriol Williams and the Rev. Pugh Jones (pastor of the Welsh Wes- leyan Church). The latter, by the way, was to have taken part in the service. The other seven clergymen and ministers remained. THE SERVICE. Following the singing of the hymn For ever with the Lord," portions of Scripture were read by the Rev. D. G. Jones (Zoar), whilst the Vicar offered up prayer, in place of the Rev. Pugh Jones. The Rev. L. G. Lewis (Adulam) de- livered a fervent address in English. He said the old smiles had returned and the old hymns of pre-war days were again being sung. The Rev. J. R. Price (Rhydyfro) fol- lowed in Welsh, and dwelt upon the gratitude they owed the boys for the sac- rifices they had made. A short address followed by Mr. J. Hugh Edwards, M.P. Following this the Pontardawe Mate voice Party (conducted by Mr. David Daniel) gave a beautiful rendering of "In the Sweet." The Doxology was then sung, and benediction by the Rev. Geo. Griffiths.
