DOES HE DETERIORATE ?
AN ASPECT OF THE LABOUR PROBLEM..
A DOCTOR'S CONCLUSIONE.
In view of the fact that Mr. Watson and a bunch of his parliamentary following have re- turned from their pilgrimage to Northern Queensland fully "convinced" that the white man can work in the tropical sugar-fields, it is" interesting, and perhaps useful, to refer back to a most suggestiva paper read by Dr. Ahearne, of Townsvillo, before the Catholic Congress held in Sydney in 1900. Dr. Ahearne, who
had been collecting facts and recording ob. servations over a series of years, called his paper "The Effects of the Tropics upon the White Australian." The paper was written with the Commonwealth legislation on the subject still in the future, and among thoughtful men it attracted wide attention at the time.
In the course of the paper Dr. Ahearne said. published for despatch by the homeward mail"The white race in the North Queensland is undergoing modifications, physically, mentally, The daily is recommended as more generally and morally. Physically-in a decided, nar- sowing of chest capacity and of the trunk suitable, except for subscribers in Europe or generally. Also there is a less decided though

Comparing the 'measurements of boys on the North Queensland coast with boys of like ages in England, the average ginth of chest Dr. Ahearne found to be as follows:-
In England, North Queensland. At 10 years is 25 inches, At to years is 24 Inches At 11 year is 26 inches. At 11 years is 24-inches At 12 yenmis 274 inches| At 12 yearsja 35 inches At 13 years is 18 inches At 13 years is 26" inches" At 14 years is 29 inches At 14 yearsis27 inches At years is 30 inches At 15years 28 inches Now as to height.
"When the arms are placed horizontally dar ing moderate expiration, the circumference un der the nipples and the angles of the shoulder blades should be equal to half the length of the body. However, in North Queensland, I find that the mean length of thú bodles of 58 boys exceeds the mean circumference of the chest by 1 15-16in.—that is to say, in North Queens- fand a boy is two inches taller than he ought? to be.

And what is the effect of the narrow chest? This, said the author of the paper, must affect individual suitability for cosmopolitan re- sidence and occupation.

"'" I remember," Dr. Ahearne related; " making an official visit to report on the sanitary state - of a camp in the neighbourhood of a big engi-- neering work which was being carried out by southern contractors. One of the firm told me he had employed local men at the beginning of the operation, and for a time, a short time only, matters progressed with satisfaction. Tha work was hard, and gradually one after the other the hands retired, admitting they needed. a spell.
