.FISH OR FRUIT ? 1
FISH OR FRUIT ? 1 Valley Master and Substitution. At the fortnightiy meeting of the Poni- ard&we Board of Guardians on Thursday, •iMr. Lewis Thomas presiding, Mr. T. ^Jeremiah asked the Workhouse Master wheth-er it had been th4 custom to sub- mit bills for fiaii to the Finance Com- mittee, when part of the bills oontained various fruit. They, as a Fi-nance Com- mittee, were continually receiving bills from Mr. Guest for fish when they had been supplied with oranges, apples, grapes, plums, tomatoes, cucumbers, and rhubarb. The Master replied that the only ex- planation they had was that they werv allowed as officers to substitute various articles, and this was a case of substitu- tion. The Rev. Evan Davies asked if it was not a fe.(1t that the master had a right to substitute. Mr. Jeremiah: No; I have it here in black and white. In reply to the chairman the Master said they had not received anything except what they were entitled to, whilst (the totals had not exceeded the estimates. Mr. Jeremiah said there was also a dis- crepancy between the invoices and the book he had in his possession from Mr. Guest. In. the last six months they had paid £ 52, whilst the receipts in the book was only for .£43 odd. Mr- Morgan Davies said there had been an error of judgment on the part of the master, and he should be reprimanded for it. As far as he oould see there had been no criminal intent, and nobody had lost anything. The Master said he accepted the whole of the responsibility. He was sorry he had not insisted on tradesmen entering all details in his bills. He expressed iregret for what had happened, and he assured them that it would not occur again. After further discussion the matter was referred to the Finance Committee and the House Committee.
SMOOTHED OVER.
SMOOTHED OVER. Conference on Town Hill I Trouble. Un the difficulties which have arisen in connection with the Town Hill housing contractor's proposal that the joinery work shall be done in Swansea by another firm, an important conference was held at the Working Men's Club on Thursday evening. In view of this meeting, we held over a statement by Mr. Ewart Davies (manag- ing director of the firm of Messrs. Rogers and Davies, Ltd., of Cardiff) in which, after pointing out that they had never in all their long experience done joinery work, he said the firm's position was that in! giving the making of the joinery to a well-equipped Swansea firm they were not sub-letting the work." This view, he added, was shared by the Welsh Housing Commissioner, and the grm earnestly hoped and believed that the point would be waived. The erection of a factory would mean great delay. Thursday evening's conference with the Operators' Executive was attended, on behalf of the Council, by Alderman P. Molyneux and Mr. J. Miller (chairman and vice-chairman respectively of the Housing Committee), the Borough Architect), Mr. E. E. Morgan), the Town Clerk (Mr. H. Lang Coath). and Mr. H. Booth. There was a lengthy discussion, marked by good feeling, in which the Housing Committee's view of the utmost importance of the work not being delayed was supported. Eventually a suggestion was made by which, it is believed, if the contractors agree, the difficulty will be smoothed over. The contractors, we understand, will be written accordingly.

MOTHERS' UNION._I
MOTHERS' UNION. I Bishop and Parents' Duty. House of Mercy. I At the Diocesan Conference at the Al- bert Hall, Swansea, on Thursday after- noon, the report of the Mothers' Union said that, in spito of any difficulties, a gocd deal of steady work had been done in all the many branches. There were over 5,000 members in the Diocese, and some very earnest workers. It was hoped for the approval and help of the parish priests, as services and celebrations would be greatly desired". The Bishop of St. Davids, comementing on the report of the Mothers' Union, said he again most strongly urged that there should be Christian education in all schools in the land. He was more hope- ful than he used to be about the future of that important matter. After all no teacher could teach children to love and fear the Lord like their mothers at home. What ho was particularly anxious about was that the Conference should feel the necessity of formulating a wholesale public opinion that it is the chief duty in the lives of parents to see that their children are taught at home, and by try- ing to effuse a much greater spirit still for home religion. lie had felt very strongly for months that this was a point they must put in the very forefront of the Church's responsibilities. The report of the Spiritual Influence" Committee was presented by Canon Joyce and adopted. j HOUSE OF MERCY. I A long report of the work of the Dio- cesan House of Mercy was presented by the Rev. Harold Williams (Vicar of Oystermouth). It said that on January 1st there were 13 girls in the Home. Four girls were confirmed at Oystermouth Parish Church in Lent, 1918. As far as finance was concerned the Houso of Mercy had never been in a bettcr condi- tion. For years pa?t there had been a mortgage of ?500 on the house. This had now been wiped out, and there was now no debt. The Council heartily thanked the subscribers for their kind response to the chaplain's appeal. Altogether the year 1918 was a very encouraging one for tho House of Mercy. The Council wished also to expre&s to the mother* superior, the sisters and the lady workers, their deep appreciation of their self-sacrificing work, and their noble efforts to seek and save those who were astray. The Bishop of Swansea seconded. BOARD OF FINANCE. I The Executive Committee recom- mended the appointment of the following gentlemen to the Diocesan Board of Finance:—Rev. Canon Browne, Rev. Canon Joyce, Rev. W. W. Poole Hughes, Rev. J. Jones (Parcyronen, Carmarthen), Rev. Principal Parry, Rev. Harrington C. Lees, Rev. Benjamin Davies, Sir John Llewelyn, Bart., Sir Charles Philipps, Bart., Admiral Heneage, Col. W. Ll. Mor- gan, Mr. W. S. de Winton, Mr. F. W. Gilberteon, Mr. Charles Lloyd, Mr. Mer- vyn Peel, Mr. F. Poole Wood, Major Eaton Evans, Mr. H. N. Mier. Mr. H. M. Vaughan. Mr. Llew. Daniel. The recommendation was adopted. I EXECUTIVE.

Canon Watkins Jones, Rev. Canon David Williams, Rev. Canon, R. W. F. Singers-Davies, Rev. D. L. Prosser, Rev. E. Lincoln Lewis, Rey. James Jones, Right Hon. Lord Dynevor, Chancellor Marlay Samson.

All were appointed, ar.,i will serve until the Wwr Conference comes into existence. I EASTERN EXCHANGE & MISSION. I A shortened report of the Diocesan Foreign Missions Board, 1918-19, said that the Bishop and members of the Board were anxious that there should be no diminution of effort on behalf of so great a cause. The seriousness of the present situation in a fewer number of workers in tli6 mission field and the gravity of the financial position, which threatens to im- peril the whole of the work, due to the loss on exchange throughout the East. The Diocese had sustained a great loss in the death of the late Dean Smith, whose devotion to foreign missions was un- bounded and his energy irrepressible. The Church in the Principality was con- fronted with the urgent and serious pro- blems of reconstruction and finance, but the Board was confident that the gener- osity of the church people would be fur- ther increased. Tho Vicar of Swansea (tho Rev. Bar- rington C. Lees), and the Dean of St. I Dayids spoke to the report. I "SPIRITUAL INFLUENCE." I The "Spiritual Influence" Committee of the governing body of the Church in Wales, who had been considering the best method of carrying on the work of the National Mission, had referred the fol- lowing three resolutions to the four Dio- cesan Conferences for their opinion:— l.«—That in view of the importance of the maintenance of clerical learning, par- ticularly in the years immediately follow- ing Ordination, it is desirable that every encouragement and facilities be given to tho fuller development of reading soci- eties among the clergy, and especially to that of the organisation of the Central Society of Sacred Study. I 2.-That provision should be made in each Archdeaconry for an annual Con- vention or Retreat and one or more Quiet Days of the clergy, and that similar pro- vision should be made, where possible, for such lay people as will avail them- selves thereof. 3.—That for the fuller instruction of church people in the fundamentals of the Faith, the clergy bo urged to employ every agency already at work, and the Ruri-Decanal Conferences be urged to consider how best the matter can be carried further. The Bishop of Swansea proposed, and Canon Joyce (Lampeter), seconded, that these resolutions be adopted by the Con- ference. ARCHBISHOP OF YORK. I Arrival at Conference. I During the presenting of the report of the Mothers' Union, his Grace the Lord Archbishop of York arived in the hall, and was received with very hearty ap- plause. Subsequently calling upon him to speak, the Bishop of St. Davids wel- comed him heartily in the name of the Conference. The Archbishop said he could not re- fuse the request to give at least an ut- terance of his pleasure at being at the side of the Bishop of St. Davids in the midst of his Diocesan Conference. He thought he had only twice before attended Diocesan Conferences outside the one to which he had belonged. It was very sin- gulir that both these occasions had been when he was present at the Conference of the Diocese of St. Davids. He had a very great opinion of the Bishop of St. Davids. He had been greatly impressed with the pertinacity of the Bishop, who had attracted him to the Conference, but in future he would avoid him when he could, and obey him when he could not. j t

ARCHBISHOP AT I SWANSEA.I…
ARCHBISHOP AT I SWANSEA. I 1 Sugary English Hymn I Tunes. 1 Welsh Finances. I Dr. Lang, the Archbishop of YOrk" addressed a public meeting at the Albert Hall on Thursday night. The Bishop of St. Davids presided, and amongst, those. on the platform were: The Bishop of Swansea, the Dean of St. Davids,, the Rev. Harrington Lees (vicar of Swansea), Chancellor Marlay Samson and Canon Joyce (Principal of Lampeter College). The Archbishop, who was received with loud and prolonged applause, said they had lost their status as an Established Church, but they should not forget that their contention throughout the fight was that it would be the State rather than the Church that would suffer from dis- establishment. They had lost some of their anaient endowments, but they had succeeded in winning back a largo por- tion of what unjustly and unwisely lwj been taken from their spiritual society. They must remember that the future had to lie faced by the Church of England and the Church in Wales together, and that nothing that had happened would in any way affect the union of those churches. FINANCES OF WELSH CHURCHES. I His Grace spoke a lot on the subject of I the pay of the clergy. The clergy could not fulfil their duriies if they w-erc eu- tangled by the sordid cares of poveri y in their own homes, and one of the first duties of the Church in Wales would be not only to repair the damage made. hut- to roconsidei the clergy's remuneration and settle it on a scale v/orihy of the aacrednass of their calling, lie knew that the Bishop of St. Davids had made a suggestion that the Churchmen in Eng- land should shoulder the burden of suf- fering the loss of their ancient Welsh endowments, and that the Church in Wales should be left to raise the stipends of her own clergy to a. proper standard He recognised to the full that clear definite ouggostion, and ho hoped it would be put before the Church of England not so much as a formal request on the part of the Church in Wales, but rather on an honourable ambition of the English Churchos. They would be thankful beyond words if God would give them guch a spirit of justice and generosity as to enable them to have the great and signal honour of handing over such a gift to the Church and the people of Wales. WELSH HYMN TUNES. I As a free church (continued his Grace) I the Church. in Wales would now be ■ more than ever, to yuke the m «•. Welsh nationality to tho work of the Church. lie could not avoid the convic- tion that Welshmen had a national char- acter of their own. lie and others, as I spectators in England, saw it was clear that they had their own history, which was in' many respects as great as, and ¡ far more romantic than, the history of I the Church in England. Wales had also her own language, and lie hoped very much that tho day was far distant when the Church in Wales would not have abundant opportunities to speak to the people of Wales in the language which ho was certain touched the deepest chords Of their souls. (Applause). The Archbishop had a lot to say upon the question of Welsh hymn tunes. The Welsh people had their own music, a wonderful privilege, he said, and he earn- estly hoped that that would be a great feature of the renewed life of the Welsh Church, and, if so, he ventured to hope that the proprietors of the copyrights of some of the English hymnals would make a scrap heap of a large number of the sugary and jargling. tunes that had found their way into the hymnals. More and j more then would they let the soul of the Welsh Church rise to God in the voice of I these massive melodies that were the glory of Welsh singing. j DEBT TO PREMIER. I Wales also had its own enthusiasm for I education, and he hoped they would be 1 able to keep it high in ideals and dde in scope so that it reached the people. Referring to, the Welsh capacity .for rp- t ligious fervour, he said they would bo! able to give it what it most needed— J spiritual discipline that earn" r-ot through feeling, but through the ap-i pointed sacraments of the Church. The country, continued his Grace,/ I J "r""¿- ■ ■■ "■ owed nn enormous debt of gratitude to the Prime Minister for his qualities of in- vincible hope and high courage in gonig about the country calling for a new spirit, and if that new spirit did not come it would be because of the selfish instincts of men. Ilie new spirit must come from a spiritual plane. MR. F. W. GILBERTSON. in proposing a vote of thanks to tho Archbishop, Mr. F. W. Gilbertson said it was in such big industrial districts f6 Swansea that tho Archbishop had had a great experience. With regard to the question of education, it was hoped very shortlv that Swansea would he a seat of learning, with its University College. The employers and men of Swansea were proud of the example, they had eliown in working togethor during the war. The religious life of Swansea had evidence of fresh life and frfsli hope, and in .such soil as that the Archbishop's words would not be barren. The Vicar of Swansea, in seconding, spoke of the natural kindliness of tho Archbishop. The Bishop of St. Davids, speaking in support, said he was more than satisfied with the assurance his Grace had given them of the sympathy of the Church in ) England in all things, including financial help. As Welsh people they had many qualities, ad proper pride was one of them, and although he gave a him that he noticed his Grace had taken, he en- tirely agreed that it should bo an hon- ourable obligation and offer from the brethren in England, because they would not get a formal inquest from Wales. The resolution was carned;
MUNITIONS COURT.
MUNITIONS COURT. Anglo-Persian Cases Raised. Mr. J. Vaughan Edwards presided over a session of the South-West Wales Muni- tions ''curt, held at the Guildhall, on Thursday afternoon. The President .asked Mr. Bell, the re- presentative of the Anglc-Persiaa Oil Company, Skewen, why an order for pay- ment of claims made by two workmen last June had not been complied with. APPEAL TOO LATE. Mr. Bell said that his firm had decided to appeal against the awards, and had written Mr. Thorpe, clerk to the tribunal, to that effect. Mr. Thorpe said it was not part of his duties to conduct an appeal for defend- ants, even though they could have secured advice from him regarding it had they applied. The President intimated that the time limit for appealing had expired, and asked for an assurance that the claims would be paid by the firm. Mr. Bell f-aid that the firm had no alternative but to pay, but they had been under a mis- apprehension. He hoped that the case would not constitute a precedent. Mr. J. Vaughan Edwards said that pre- cedents did not enter into the question, and that the court was not bound by a previous decision. QUESTION OF NOTICE- It was subsequently established by Mr. Bell that a special provision of the Muni- tions Act of April. 1918, exempted such companies as the Anglo-Persian from being compelled to give employes a week's notice before dismissal. This arose because the court had before them a claim from a carpenter in the em- ploy of the company for a week's wages in lieu of notice, he having been dismissed last May. Tlie P -i !•••! .Mr. Bell's con- tention i i i;o A;i: il, WIS. amendment of li r Act exempted his firm from having to a week's notice, and told the !:• i.iiunt that they were permitted to '-vert to the custom of the building cade, Dud gh-e only two hours' notice. lie therefore inclined in favour of the company, and sai(l.tliat tbi, matter was similar to the case of two other men, against whose awards the firm had in- tended to appeal. There were something like 288 different, orders to cope with, and the court admitted not taking into account the amendment. PRESIDENT'S STATEMENT. "It is quite clear that had you appealed you could havo obtained a re-hearing," said Mr. Edwards, but the fault would have been upon you, because it was in- cumbent uJlon you to produce a certificato of exemption at the original hearing, when you did not put in an appeawtnee; so wo were compelled to find for the men. "I do not think you have treated the cou rt well at all," concluded the presi- dent.

I A new organisation is about to be I launched next week, entitled The Direct Fish Supplies, Ltd., formed with a capi-i tal of £ 2,000,000, divided into 1,980,000 7i { per ent. (free of income tax up to Lie,. in the £ ) Cumulative Participating Pre- ferred Ordinary Shares oi £1 each, and 400,000 Deferred shares of Is. each, for the purpose of enabling the general public to procure supplies of fresh fish cheaply, thus obviating the necessity of having tho public supplies handled sev- eral times by various middlemen. The company will establish a direct, rapid system of supply, eliminating entirely all intermediate profits, expenses, delays and waste, at the same time retaining all the profits of the production, distribution and I retailing of its own fish. Contracts have been entered into for numerous fleets of steam trawlers and motor lorries. The company will make a distinctive feature of having fresh supplies of fish in all its shops daily and, in case any fish is un- sold in any of the company's fish 6hops during the day, such will be eold in tho company's own fried fish shops, thus en- suring absolutely fresh fish on sale every day. The management and supervision of cnoli department will be under the direc- tion of practical and experienced men. Mr. W. H. B. Quilliam, the chairman of the Manx Fisheries Association, Ltd., who has had many years experience in the Fishing Industry, and to whose efforts I the present arrangements are due, has agreed to act as Managing Director. Shareholders in the Company being resi- dent in a town or distr.ict where, for the time being, the Company owns no shop or Market for the sale of fish., will be en- titled to receive weekly amounts of fish by post or other delivery at wholesale prices, plus cost of delivery. Local retail fish shop owners who become shareholders will be given the opportunity of acting as I agents for the company or of receiving supplies of the Company's fish direct at moderate prices to be resold by them to I the public at prices not exceeding those fixed by the company. There are no casa I promotion profits in conection with the I enterprise.

I RE-CONSTRUCTION. j i
I RE-CONSTRUCTION. I Address to the Young Liberals. Mr. W. Morgan James, addressing the Young Liberal League at Swansea this week, introduced the subject by saying that the critics, writing in connection with Waterloo, said that it was not a battle, but that it was the universe chang- ing front. Reconstruction was an inade- quate term for the needs of the spirit of the age. The war was one of the greatest upheavals which would be experienced in the history of man, and would not be- come a spent force. The long-delayed reform of the, Upper Chamber was approaching its accomplish- ment, but the time was ripe for a He- forlite(I House of Commons also. The legislative mieltijipi-y, had been notori- ously slow from a product :'fe standpoint, and should bo scrapped. The House of Common should not" be the refngp of poli- tical marionettes who told us what Cob- den said in '79." The State to-day re- quired modern Cobdens, men that could efficiently deal with the exacting prob- lems of the day. Reference was made to the strides agri- culture had made in Germany. The growing of sugar beet in Germany had contributed largelv Tn the succese of the countryside, r.ol-withstanding that Ger- man soil and climate were less favourable to agriculture than those of Britain. Whilst landlordism and the drink traffic were being checked, other menaies were now arising in this country, in the form o' trade combines, trusts and monopolies. These would nullify Use higher wages which were now being paid. The Govern- ment should make it impossible for these monopolies to be ionoed, to the del rinient of the community, and it was fully time I that the maximum incomes should be fixed. The war had overthrown might and substituted right. Labour unrest would find its solution on the same moral principle. Mr. Morgan James was cordially thanked for his address, and a kec-n dis- cussion followed. Mr. '\Viii. Poq,;(,r ( (-I) ii-,n n of the Liberal Executive) presided. I
