Sir,—Having referred to old


age pensions and M.P.’s salaries,' with a sly dig at Labour M.Ps, one worders why “Justus” did not have a go at the unearned income classes.


Some have their umpteen


thousands a year for doing nothing in particular, while the old age pensloneis scrape along somehow and our under-paid, over-worked, and much-abused legislators get along as 'best they can.


If we value liberty an'd demo­


cracy, something ; must be done to attract the best elements from .all sections p£ society.


Otherwise we are In danger of slipping back ■to the days when only the wealthy could enter Parliament, and the, House of


Commons was known as "The best club in Europe,” with its members caring Ijittle or nothing about the welfare of the people they were supposed to represent.


To revert to the main.point,


The fact is that,;as far as old age pensions are ebneemed, the present scheme of; flat-rate con­ tributions has broken down,


' Unless the critics can suggest something, either equal or. belter than the Labour proposals there 1$ no ground for criticism. ! r; .

FREEDOM SUBSIDY Sir,—It is a strange paradox


that people who regard profits as an unnecessary evil should now cry out for a “ freedom sub­ sidy” for newspapers threatened with extinction fiirough in­ sufficient profits. ■ :


While all fair-minded people


will hope that newspapers will surmount their present difficul­ ties it may not be a bad thing if some welcome light is shed upon this much-abused-term “profits.”


I find it illogical that anyone


who can accept the large-scale closing down of cotton mills with comparative complacency should be alarmed when a newspaper is threatened for, precisely the- same reason—insufficient profits to carry on —yet these are the very, people who would have us believe that profits are the per­ quisites of the shareholders and the bane of the workers.


To them . every newspaper


headline about a company's profits is a mental picture of a


wicked shareholder dippbag into the pockets of the worker..


It matters not whether it is


gross profit^,'or net profits, be­ fore tax or’after tax, to their


confused , ijnlrida the wor<i. itself is an evil itHlng.


scales with wages weighed down by; profits.; :


To them industry is a [pair of i . I


If concern for a newspapa's sur­


vival makes these people! realise the- true, meaning and fimetion of profits i ll well and good. They will know 'that, far from being a shareholders' perquisite, ! profits are the takings of a business less the cost of running It and the tax rake-off.


Unless profits are made no business could expand exiept by gohig to tlie money market or the riiareholders for more [money. Profits retained in the business enable more work to be under­


taken, technical and market research to be carried opt and training and welfare schemes to be put into operation.


In other 'words, if wb want,


more of thes^ things' to raise the standard of living, we ca,n only do it by making the kitty bigger.

And the name of the kitty is—' :

Saga of the men


bf Bolland By J. H. W. FISHWICK


idHINING like bright stars In 'Y a fading firmament of past history, the deeds of the gallant fighting men of Bol- la,nd today stand out proudly In a tale (jf ancient conquests in Britain and foreign lands.


[This fine record of unstlnt-


Ipg sacrifice Is a record which can be looked upon by the Bpllanders of today with deen satisfaction.


As long ago as the 13th cen­


tury when the knights of Eng­ land joined In the Sixth Cru­


sade which embarked for the .Holy Land, there went with them one Ellas Bolton son of Ughtred.


, ' [But this fighting man from


Bplland never returned to his native shores—he died before


1


the Crusaders arrived In Jeru­ salem to face the Saracens. iincldentally. his family be­


stowed their name on the pre- seht village of Bolton-by- Bpwland.


jAnd the present Jerusalem


Hill may have taken its name from the Knights of Jeru­ salem, who are believed to have had’headquarters there] members of the Bolton family bplng associated with them.' But this, of course, Is only conjecture,


FIGHTING SAGA And It was from them John


Ppdesey; bought part of the M!anor. 'Which brings us to anotherj^hlghlight in the B0I-: land fighting saga, for it was probably this Podesey who tdok part in the Battle of'


Afelncourt together with eight aijchers.


' The names of these bowmen'


..who fought in this battle, in wpich the English triumphed oyer the French In 1415, were Thom Whltton, Bob Ferrour, Will del Halle. William Hyde, Rob Haddylsay. Will Gassglll, Joh Porter and Joh HarryeS, who formed the retinue of' Mons, de Clarence.


retinue were Thom.Mountney and Will Grayndorge.


Other Hollanders among the ,


A century later bowmen and


horseipen.^-men from Bblton- by-Bowland, fought under Lord Henry Clifford, of Bolton' Abbey! In- the gory battle on' Flpdden Field, In 1513, when


the Scots were routed by the English.


• ,


VICTORIOUS ARCHERS These victorious archers


were^. William Stott, armed with bow. able horse, etc., Henry Garnett (bowe), Ronerf Caley (bowe), Thomas Peel (blUe), Humphrey Pickard (bowe), Thomas 'Pykhard (bowe), John , Wiggles,worth (bowe), John Garnett (bllle), Richard Chafrihers (bowe),; Thomas Foot (bowe), Robert ■Wallbank ■ (bowe)- William! Knott (bllle). and 'William Catley (bowe).


Thei), in 1803, when war


broke out with the French, a . regiment, known as thp Craven Legion, was formed by Lord Rlbblesdale, of Gisburne Park.


! It, was made up of 1,200 in­


fantrymen and 250 cavalry men, making a total strength of 1,450—the pick of Holland’s .


renowned fighting men. : lAn Interesting glimpse into


former battle glories, no doubt, and a renllnder. too, that this s4me unquenchable patriotism hds been displayed by these ancient warriors’ counterparts of modern times.
