cripples require a training which will not only make them productive members of society, but
will also prove mentally satisfying. Either the crippled soldier must be so trained that he can compete successfully with non crippled workers in eccupations which are open to everyone, or, alternatively, certain work must be set aside-exclusively for him. There is more over, the human aspect of the subject,.. and it is gratifying to observe that in this war much more attention is being paid to that than was the case in the previous struggles in which our soldiers took part. There is a general feeling

LONDON, June 15th. Reuter's Correspondent at Tokyo, states that Dr. Teur, Secretary of the Chinese Legation, who has been appointed Direc tor of the Bureau for the deportation of 7,000 German men and women from China to Australia, has left for Peking en route for Australia.
It is understood that Dr. Tsur will re- gularly visit the prisoners' camps in Australia. The cost of deportation will be borne by the Allied Governments.
A great deal of attention has been given to this problem in Great Britain, and, although the United States is a compara tively new participator in the war the matter has been very fully investigated In that country.
