Not Married Bliss

A Sheffield Husband Sent to Prison


At the Sheffield Police Court, to-day, Thomas Saxby, of 5 court 1 house, Spital Street, was summoned for assaulting his wife, Kate Saxby who has recently been living apart from him at 27 Rawson Street, on October 2nd. Mr. Lambert was for the complainant.

Kate Saxby said she worked for a cigar-maker, and on the day in question when she left her employment at one o'clock, defendant came up to her, struck her in the face, and knocked her down. She was kicked, and shortly afterwards took hold of her by the throat and tried to strangle her. Defendant remarked that he would "finish her".

Defendant said it was impossible for a man to do his best for a woman like the complainant who was always deceiving him. He complained that his wife got into debt. On October 2nd he asked his wife is she would let him know where the child was, but she refused. He then caught hold of her and she fell to the ground.

It appeared that the parties, who were married in 1907, had been separated on two or three occasions. After marriage defendant enlisted in the Coldstream Guards as a single man, and when he left in August 1912, his conduct was reported to have been very good.

The Chairman (Dr. Hunt) said this was a very aggravated assault, and defendant would have to undergo one month's hard labour.8

Havoc Amongst Enemy Ships

Bradford Man in Fiords raid


Three forces of coastal Command Mosquitos and Beaufighters swept over the fiords of Norway yesterday afternoon in snow and ice to deliver damaging attacks on enemy shipping.

The last crew to leave the target area saw a modern cargo-liner lying on its side burning, a small modern oil-burning merchantman disappearing under the water, a large sized ship ablaze and two smaller merchant ships hit.

The Mosquitos went down from 2,000 feet to sea level, to fire dozens of rockets into the ships.

"A large vessel alongside the quay was well on fire when we left" said Flight Lieutenant J. A. Selka of 68 Emm Lane, Bradford, Yorkshire. "We dived down on it, and although men on the quay were running for safety, the whole attack was over in under a minute. There was a fair amount of flak, but we all returned safely".7

Mr. Solomon Selka
Bradford Spinner and Manufacturer
Enterprising Career


Mr. Solomon Selka, who died last night at his home, Upper Syke, Clayton, Bradford, was head of James Drummond and Sons, Ltd., spinners and manufacturers, Lumb Lane Mills, Henry Briggs and Co., Ltd., worsted spinners, Highgate Mills, Clayton Heights, and head of Cranbrook Mills, Norwood Green.

Mr. Soloman Selka was born in 1880 at Butschowitz, Moravia, then part of the Austrian Empire, now in Czecho-Slovakia. Coming to Britain in his early twenties he spent a number of years in the service of a Bradford shipping house, in which he ultimately rose to a position of responsibility and trust. There he gained a thorough knowledge of the textile trade, and especially the export branch, which in later years he turned to such good account.

In 1912, two years before the War, he became a naturalised Englishman. After the Was he formally renounced Czecho-Slovakian nationality, which, by the law of that country he had technically acquired as the result of the Treaty of Peace. In the meantime he had anchored himself more firmly to his new homeland by marrying an English wife, the daughter of the late Dr. Vinter, then head master of Woodhouse Grove School.

Mr. Selka started business on his own account in 1916 as a piece goods merchant. In a few years, by dint of enterprise and hard work, he had firmly established himself both in the home and export trade and had launched out into spinning and manufacturing. He acquired successively the businesses of Henry Briggs and Co. Ltd., worsted spinners, of Highgate Mills at Clayton Heights, and of the Cranbrook Mills, Norwood Green

Finally in 1931 he acquired control of James Drummond and Sons Ltd., spinners and manufacturers, of Lumb Lane Mills, Bradford. His successful rehabilitation of this extensive and old-fashioned business, which during the period of severe trade depression had fallen into difficulties and was in danger of extinction, was the crowing achievement of of his career. The plant at Lumb Lane Mills is one of the largest worsted plants in Yorkshire. Since it came under Mr. Selka's direction it has given practically uninterrupted employment to over 800 workpeople. Had it closed down during the depression hundreds of people would have been thrown out of work.

Rise Achieved in Depression

The business established in Mr. Selka's name had acquired too valuable a goodwill in the world's markets to allow its identity to be merged on his taking over James Drummond and Sons, so he carried it on side-by-side with the latter, transferring the office and warehouse formerly at Bond Street to Lumb Lane Mills. The looms at Norwood Green, as well as the spinning plant of Henry Briggs and Co. Ltd., were retained.

Mr. Selka's rise was more notable that it was achieved in a time of unparalleled industrial and economic difficulty. He possessed a large measure of most of the qualities that make a capable leader and a successful business man. He was gifted with remarkable quickness of perception, the power to make rapid decisions and translate them into immediate action and inexhaustible energy. His capacity for work was prodigious. Few details of his extensive business he though too small for his personal attention. To his staff he set an unapproachable example of industry and efficiency.

He was one of one of the earliest supporters of the Zionist movement founded by Dr. Hertz, and was always a great contributor to Jewish causes, particularly in recent years to the many appeals on behalf of Jews expatriated from the countries of their birth or adoption. He was a liberal giver to charitable causes generally. Not an actively a politician, he refuse membership of any party but supported the National Government.

Mr. Selka has left a widow and five sons, two of whom are already in the business. His eldest son, Mr. Joseph Arthur Selka, came of age three months ago.

The funeral will take place at Bradford today.

Research*2013 Research:"Solomon Selka 1880-1936

Textile magnate Solomon Selka was born in Butschowitz, Moravia in 1880. He rose to become a highly prominent member of Bradford's textile industry by his middle years. He arrived in England when he was just in his early 20's and began his involvement with Wools and worsteds at a Bradford shipping house. Over the next decade he rose to a position of responsibility and trust.

He married on 24 Dec 1912 at Belgrave St Synagogue, Leeds Helen Shipstone Vinter, the daughter of Mr Arthur Vinter, the respected headmaster of Woodhouse Grove School at Apperley Bridge. The couple lived in 1912 at 6 Walmer Place, Manningham, Bradford.

In 1916 he set up his own business, initially acting as a merchant for piece goods. A few years on from this through hard work and business enterprise and acumen he had vigorously estasblished himself in the home and export trades, soon venturing out for himself in the fields of spinning and manufacturing.

He began to successfully acquire business after business, which would go onto list Henry Briggs and Co. Ltd at of Highgate Mills at Clayton Heights, which still stands today. Also in his capacities were Cranbrook Mills, Norwood Green, and eventually by 1931 he had bought James Drummond and Sons Ltd of Lumb Lane, Manningham, adjacent to the Bowland Street Synagogue.

According to the Bradford Daily Telegraph of November 6th 1936, the epitome of his long and focussed career was the way he turned Drummond's as a business around, during the Great Depression of the 1930's, "His successful rehabilitation of this extensive and old-established business, which during the period of severe depression had fallen into difficulties and was in danger of extinction, was the crowing achievement of of a remarkable career".

One of the largest worsted spinning plants in Yorkshire Drummond's directorship under Mr Selka prevented the loss of employment for over 800 people.

He carried on his own textile business on along with the running of Drummond's, keen to keep both businesses as separate commercial entities, never desiring a merger of the two.

His rise to the top of commerce was even more remarkable than others who had achieved similar endeavours as this was done during the fragilities of the worlds worst economic disaster at the time. His reputation shone through as a "just and generous employer according to the Bradford Daily Telegraph, he "understood well how to get the best out of his staff by himself setting an admirable example of industry and efficiency.".

He was proud of his Jewishness, both culturally and religiously, been one of the earliest advocates of the Zionist movement, along with the Merchant and Mayor Jacob Moser. He was often a great giver to Jewish causes. Not particularly active on local political scene, he refused ardently to become joined through membership to any particular political party.

Upon his death in 1936 he left behind a widow and five sons including Joseph Arthur. His funeral was held at Spring Gardens Synagogue and his body was buried at Scholemoor Cemetery in the Birks Fold Orthodox Section."4
