CHAPTER VI.
- The common problem, yours, mine, everyone's,
- Is — not to fancy what were fair in life,
- Provided it could be-but finding first,
- What may be, then how to make it fair
- Up to our means.
- —Browning.
The lists given in this Chapter contain the names of those who have assisted in building up the present municipal government of Huddersfield from small beginnings to its present gigantic dimensions as portrayed in the preceding pages. It would be difficult and somewhat invidious to specially mention any individual names, but it may be pointed out that the earlier group of men laid well and truly the foundations of the superstructure; those of the middle period began many important additions, such as Tramways, Electricity, Schools, Parks, &c.; while those of the later period brought all the undertakings to their present successful condition. It will be admitted that all have worked with zeal and energy to promote the civic welfare of the ratepayers. If some individuals loom larger in the public eye than others, it should not be forgotten that the largest part of the work does not consist in public speech-making, but is done in the privacy of the Committee-room.
It would be an unjust act of omission if no acknowledgment were made here of the very valuable assistance in the work of the Council rendered by the Co-opted Members. From the time of the first formation of certain important Committees, such, for instance, as the Technical College Governors, the Education Committee, and Public and Art Gallery Committee, a large proportion of non-members of the Council have been chosen to serve upon them. In this manner many leading citizens, both men and women, have ungrudgingly devoted a large amount of time in performing most useful public work. Some of these members have actually served as Chairmen or Vice-Chairmen of their respective Committees.
During recent years a number: of New Committees have been constituted, and in accordance with Government regulations, they also contain a large number of non-members of the Council. These Committees include the following :— Old Age Pensions, National Health Insurance, War Pensions, Food Control, and others.
As these are Statutory Committees, and their business does not come under review by the Borough Council, the names of these Co-optative Members are not given.
