ONE DEAD IN RAID ON WELSH TOWN AN elderly woman was killed and a small number of injured when bombs fell on a South Wales coast town in the early hours of Sunday morning. Damage was done to house property and a hospital also suffered. although damage there was not extensive.

The attack was made from a low level and the bombs fell in a residential district. The house occupied by Mrs. Thomas. widow of a former mayor, received a direct hit and Mrs. Thomas was dead when found an hour later.

A young woman, the only other occupant of the house. was also buried, but was quickly got out by a rescue party and taken to hospital. Another bomb fell near a house occupied by Mr. Morris, a middleaged blacksmith, and his wife, who were imprisoned under some time before being rescued and For a time there was some Lear regarding a boy of 12. who could not be found in the Eventually his call was heard and while the rescue party was at work he showed remarkable fortitude.

Although injured he made no complaints. One bomb fell in a field and caused exterior damage to nearby houses. removed to hospital. A household of six had a remarkable escape. A bomb blew away the back of the house, but all six were got out safely.

W. P. Walsh. representing the two leading firms of corn merchants in Cardiff. have given their respective views in the Western Mail in reference to issues raised at a meeting of the Glamorgan Farmers' Union Executive Committee held at Bridgend recently.

The principal point at issue is the question of seed wheat. Mr. Griffin has made the point of the various expenses attached to the collection. cleaning, dressing, and redistribution of seed corn. From my experience good wheat comes from a good threshing machine.

with the screen opened quite sufficiently clean to sow. Any foreign seed can quite easily be seen. and if such exists farmers would not buy. as the sample would be regarded as not fit for seed purposes. I have always been able to dress seed wheat at a figure not exceeding 6d.

per by a treatment which is equally as effective as mercurial treatment. The point arises, why should I or other seed wheat growers not be allowed to sell to other farmers. We have to pay at the rate about £30 per ton for pedigree seed. We plough and cultivate the land. pay the rent.

sow the seed. reap and harvest corn. thatch the ricks. and do the threshing: in fact. nurse corn from the cradle to the grave.

When all this is done and the is ready. we are told to take it purchasing merseede chants. and we dare not sell it to anyone else under heavy penalties. This is the open market I assume Mr. Walsh refers to.

After paying 31s. per cwt. and growing and harvesting an excellent sample of seed wheat. which I submitted to one of the directors of a leading firm. I was offered 163.

per or 1s. 6d. more than the price of milling wheat. This wheat would be sold to farmers at about 26s. per or a profit of 20s.

on each 2cwt. bag on first purchase. If the figures given by Mr. Griffin are correct, perhaps wiil explain how so some other firms in Glamorgan can sell seed wheat at anything between 18s. 6d.

to 22s. 6d. per cwt. and be satisfied with their JAS. JAMES.

Sheepcourt, Bonvilston, Glam. another column it is reported that individual licences are now being issued to permit sales of wheat and other seeds by grower to The Aubrey Family Sir. The correspondence about the Aubreys and their house at Llantrithyd recalls to my mind the fact that about 1680 the Edmondes family first came from Hertfordshire to Glamorgan. I think it was John who arrived as land agent to the Aubreys of those days. In Queen Elizabeth's reign an Edmondes was Lord Chancellor, and I have seen his signature in a document at Knowle in Kent.

He was the forerunner of our family, who later settled at Llandough, Cowbridge, and St. CONSTANCE MARY CLAY. Manora, Porthcawl. Oct. 10.

We were four shipmates." said Wise, and got away in one lifeboat with seven other men after our ship had been torpedoed. 46 We spent four days at sea and ran aground at a native village on the French West African coast. The native police learnt of our arrival and we were thrown into concentration camp.

where we were prisoners for four months. "Our living quarters were grasscovered huts, or kraals. each of which had to accommodate 11 men. We were there during the rainy season, and it poured as it can was an absolute misery. Food was scarce and of the poorest quality.

Our principal diet was bread, rice. and water served twice daily, with an occasional piece of goat's meat. "Sickness developed among the men and one young lad died. When we complained we were kicked by the big black native troops or butted with end of a rifle. Native doctors treated blisters on our feet from sand flies by cutting off the blistered part with dirty scissors.

"We all felt," raid Wise. "that we must surely die and four of us decided to put an end to it by trying to escape." The men succeeded in the coast, but were caught. As a punishment they were forced to water for four days in blazing sun without a head covering. The strain proved too much and they were removed to hospital. Finally the men were taken to the frontier in -lorries and crossed to British territory.

Extortionate Rent Alleged Profiteering by house-owners and tenants at Newport (Pem.) was alleged at a meeting of Rural District Council at Eglwyswrw. J. M.

the landlord offered and accepted £70. Some people were being asked to pay 30s. a week for unfurnished apartments in houses which were assessed at only £7. The Rev. John Thomas (St.

Dogmaels): We should proceed against these people. The Clerk (Mr. J. Arthur Evans): If the council drew the attention of the Ministry to the matter the houses would be commandeered and the tenants asked to pay only the minimum rent. Each member of the council was asked to take in a list of alleged offenders in their respective districts for consideration at the next meeting.
