The number _is startling and has elicited a_good` deal of comment. Dr C. W. Saleeby, a noted British expert, attributes this state of affairs to the absence of medical inspection in schools. The defects were largely preventiblc, had they been discovered in childhood and the necessary _steps taken to prevent their becominga disease. A Toronto exchange informs its readers that dur- ing thc recruitingcampaign in _that city 40 pe_r cent._ of the volunteers were rejected, and it also attributes the condition to the fact that “during the schooldaysof the men no\v fighting the F.mpire’s battles the school ailfriinistrators confined t_heir efforts to’ teaching.

The result__is that upon'the cdmmander of the submarine fthe responsi- bility for having wilfully 'giulated the recognized law of nations, and entirely`disregarded those humane principles which every belligerent should observe in the conduct of war at sea. ` T There is, therefore, nothing to_' debate., The Secretary submits that in view ofthe admission, the weight and character of'additional testimony corro- borating the A'dmiralty’s report,3'and'the number of Americans killed or injuredare in no way essential matters of discussion. He declares that this country finds no other course open to it but to hold the Imperial and Royal _Government responsible for the act of the commander, and to renew the demands already made. Ot' these demands, he hopes that._Viehna will perceive th_ejustice_._ _ _ __ , All the. _terr_n_s used are thoseof absolut`e"simplicity, but no loopholes are left.
