BRITISH HOSPITALS.
London, June 2 The financial anxistles hospitals have already experienced in several of the most important institutions is likely to be somewhat diminished if the recommendations of the Committee of Investigation, presided over by Lord Cave, are adopted. It is forecasted that the Committee will propose to Parliament a grant of a million sterling -for the current year for distribution, as occasion demands, by a suggested central body designated the Hospitals Commission, Other recommendations will be deduction of income tax in respect duties on legacies made to the hospitals. It is stated that the Committee favour the retention of the voluntary principle which the hospitals strongly desire instead of public maintenance, entalling an enormous outlay. It is mentioned that while the income of the hospitals bas increased sixty-seven per cent, since before the war. their expenditure has increased one hundred and fifty per cent. The idea has been formulated that expenditure will be reducable by co-operative buying and it is proposed that the Hospital Commis- sion should be a semi-Government body.

UPPER SILESIA.
Herr Worth, referring to Upper Silesia, declared that the Germans under the oppression of Korfanty's bands had underone insufferable treatment. The Polish rising was not a spontaneons and popular movement but an artificial rebellion supported from outside. The rebellion can never creste rights nor make Polish a land which has not belonged to Poland for seven hundred years and never displayed a trace of Polish maternal feeling natit artificially stimulated recently by Polish strangers."
Herr Wirth declared that apart from the result of the plebiscite, the complexity of the economic organisation in Upper Silesia was such that any partition would involve ruin to the parts cut off.
