Crew Killed.

New York, Feb. 11.-Dr. NJ. S.
Inglis, Canadian army surgeon who
arrived on the A nc or liner
Cam ronia from Liverpool,
declared that he had knowledge
of the capture in British nets of sew
enteen German submarines and told
how the crew OF one of them had
been found shot to death after it had
been towed ashore. DR.. Inglis said
he had been allowed to descend into
this submarine and had seen the bod
les.
''To save them from death by suf-
location" he said, the commander
had shot all his men and then him
self apparently"
DR.. Inglis added that the British
are nowefnaking use of glass bottom
boats with more or less success in
scouting for submarines, in coniunc-
ton with a hydro-aeroplane fleet. The
glass used, he said, givesa clear view
in water fifty to sixty feet in depth.

FOR THE CHILDREN.

Honolulu's awakening interest in child vel
fare as shown by the permanence and activity
of the free Kindergarten movement, and by
the Baby Week preparations now occupying
many men and women, is part of a trend OF
Thought scarcely less marked in South than in
North America.
Arrangements are being made to hold the
First American Congress on Child Welfare III
Buenos Aires next July in comInemoratlon OF
the centenary of Argentine independence. The
program sembraces sections on law, hygiene,
psychology, assistance to mother and child,
sociology and industrial legislation, and has
been translated into English for the benefit of
Americans who are not familiar with Spanish.
The president of the congress, DR.. Julieta Lam
teri Renshaw, in letter to the National Child
Labor Committee, New York City, which is
furthering the interest of the congress In this
country, says:
ssOur executive committee is counting upon
the presence of Americans interested in phil
anthropy and social work to discuss problems
Of child welfare This international American
congress will serve as a new bond of union and
fraternity among the nations OF North and
South America and the executive committee
hopes for this reason that the meetings IN Bue
nos Aires will be as impressive as possible
The congress is regarded by Harry =. Bard,
secretary of the Pan-American Society of the
United States, as an unequalled opportunity for
establishing closer social, intellectual and Gull
tural relations with the other republics of
America. mo subject could form better
basis for.proftable discussion than the child, !"
said Mr. Bard, and am particularly glad that
the call for this congress comes from Argentina

pie better understanding of the progress
made in improving the conditions of the child
and hemethods employed in that splendid
country.s
