Field, Marshal

(Special 10 The Guardian)

LONDON, June 22—Field Mar.
shall Sir Henry Hughes Wilson,

former Chief of the Imperial Staff,
member of the British Parliament
fer’ North Down and Military Ad-
visor to the Ulster government, way
assasinated outside his house. in
Eaton Square this afternoon,

Sir Henry was just stepping out
of his automobile when he was
confronted by two men who opened
fire on him with revolvers. The
Field Marshall fell mortally wound
ed, with several shots in his, body
and died in a few minutes, The
two assassins were captured after
a short chase, in which three po-
licemen and a civilian were wound-
ed. The arrested men, the Cen-
tral News states, gave the names
of James O*Brien, age 24, no or-
cupation, no address and James
Connolly, aged 24, no oceunation
no address. Scotland Yard an
nounced that one of the assassins
declared they were soldiers. They
refused to designate their regi
ment, One of the murderers car-
ried a letter revealing the fact
that he was a member of the Irish
Republican Army.

IBELEAST, June 22—The news
of the assasination of Field Mar,
shall Wilson created a sensation in
Belfast, where it is feared it will
provoke reprisals. The Sinn Fein
ers are popularly blamed for it.

LONDON, June 22—One of the
policemen named Marsh, wounded
in the running gun fight following
the shooting, died later in the hos-
pital. Police combed the Baton
Square district this evening in the
hope of finding four men believed
to haye been accomplices of O'Brien
and Connolly.  *

After shooting Sir Henry the
two assassins ran through the
streets, pursued by police who con:
tinually guard Baton Square, where
many of the most prominent men
in England have their London
homes.

Many shots—were — fired
them down the narrow streets
through which they fled past the
London homes of titled personages
and Cabinet Ministers.

The murderers turned and fired
at their pursuers, keeping up a,

Striking Address by Miss

In the course of a striking and
brilliant address last night in St.
Paul's Parish Hall, Miss . Charlotte
E. Whitton, of the Social Service
Council of Canada, outlined some
of the after-war problems facing
the Dominion — and particularly
along the lines. of chilq welfare,
public health and public morality.
His Honor Lieutenant Governor
MacKinnon presided at the meet-
ring, which was well attended des-
pite the inclement weather,

The position of Canada and the
other countries’ which took part
in the late war, either as enemies
or allies, ig much like those who
lin the days of the crucifixion stood
upon Golgotha, sail! Miss Whitton
in her introductory remarks. The
}words of Christ to his mother, cal-
jling her attention away from _ the
tragedy before her eyes to John,
is significant as a message to the
worid today, not to dwell alone
upon the glory of those who have
gone, but to dedicate ourselves to
the éervice of those ‘who remain,
and to the task that is made ten
fold more complicated by the war.

‘War, by its very nature, sacrt-
fices the youth of humanity, leav-
ing the very young and the. very
old. The ones who are gone from
‘the life of the nation are those
who today would tbe just reaching
the highest peak in possibilities of
service to the country. This great
middie group formed a link of
understanding between the very
young and the very old, and the
whole national spirit. of the
counfry must Mpcessarily suffer
from the untimely decrease in this
group, caused by the casualties of;
ithe war ct devolved
upon those who remain to
étrive after a fuller spirit of un-
derstanding and tolerance and to
seek the best way out of the pre-
sent. day problems, There is no
more productive and remunerative
field of patriotic service. than in
the welfare of the young life,
which ig growing up around us.
Child welfare is indeed the great
problem, because no phase of this
subject can be touched without
reaching every point of national
life.

t The two points emphasized by
}the «peaker ‘in regard to child
' welfare were public thealth and
public morality. Public health in-
volves the child’s right to life, and
;touches among other things indus.
trial problems, housing e&chemes,
food problems, transportation and
‘distribution, Phuses of the work
of the Social Service Council along

this line are social hygene, the
fight against tuberculosis - and
cancer, mental hygene and the

proper care of mental defectives.
The question of public morality
was one of very wide importance
and touched é¢uch questions as
prohibition, censorship of moving
pictures, ete.

Upon these subjects Miss Whit-
ton diwelt at length quoting facts
and figures and speaking for up-
wards of an hour and a half with
wonderful fluency and earnestness,

The first thing in mental hy-
giene work ig the knowledge of
conditions as they actually exist.
To the attninment of this end six
provinces have had surveys made
by the mental hygiene committee
and this committee stands ready
to make a Similar; survey of the
conditions in this province if in-
vited to do 6o, It can do it at cost
of about $3,000 or $4,000, but it
is willing to undertake the work
in this province gratitutiously and
is prepared to send here expert
workers who will report the Te
sults of their survey to the exe-
cutive council, The local govern

any action but the information,
will be available if it is seen fit
to make the facts public. The im-
portance of. proper care and 3eg-
gregation of mental defectives was
gone into very comprehensively by
the speaker, Today Canada seems
rather more willing to support
mental defectives indirectly by
where, as cetan clasees of them
constantly caring for them in work
houses, jails and reformatorics,
and unmarried njothers, homes,
where, as certain classes of them
are incurable, they return again
and again, than by seggregating
them under proper and humane
care, Social Service workers
come up against this? problem
very often in the larger Canad-
ian cities,

The department of a board of
health as a necessity for mental
hygiene work was emphasized, a3
also the responsibility = -which
rested upon citizens and govern-
ments of subsidizing the health
work of the Red Cross in the
public schools, or else to assume
charge of this work,

‘Speaking on the prohibition ques-
tion Miss Whitton declared that all
authentic government records, ano
even business reports, police re-
cords, etc, show a big decrease in
drunkenness under prohibition law
Prohibition legislation, however
has not been given a fair chance
because of leakage in the act which:
permits the- importation of liquer
for export. An amendment to tills
Federal Act, however, has now
passed through the House of Coin
mons, and when passed by tne
Senate will do away with this
it is the desire of the province to
have real prohibition. Prohibi
ticn does not afféct the legislation
against. sNlls and home brew, be
cause these are looked after by
Customs regulations,

In conclusion Miss Whitton said
that the Social Serviée Council
while it was antagonistic to certai
things known to be an evil to
the community, nevertheless de
pended more upon Ze development |
within the community of. those!
things which ‘make possible, the!
high ideals of. life. It believed
in short, in the power of goodness

pcensible position in government
work at Ottawa.

Montreal Makes

Record Wheat
Shipment

(Special to The Guardian.)

MONTREAL, QUE, June 22—
Three and a half million bushels of
grain will be carried from Montreal
to Europe next week when a flect
of ten ships, some of which have
already arrived in port, will have
been loaded to capacity with Can.
adian grain, which is at present
lying in Montreal,

This will constitute a red letter
week for the harbor and for .local
grain brokers, who see: in this
movement the beginning of what
may be the busiest and.most suc-
cessful year. in the history of the
port,

Many grain brokers are inclined
to think that this fs. only the be-
ginning of better business. No
large grain orders have been plac:
ed by any of the European buyers,
either here or in New York, during
the last few. weeks. This is’ an
indication that the European de-
mand is beginning to turn to this
country, instead of to South Am-
erica, as for some-weéeks past.

With the removal of this three
and a half million bushels there
will be about three million bushes
left in the local elevators. There
is an additional two million bush-
els consigned to ‘Montreal fro:
lake ports, Some of this is at
present afloat in the harbor, and
some is en route from Port Col-
