He was indeed a. splendid little fellow, a capital soldier, and w shall all mi-ss him very much. I waf; in close proximity to the shell that caught, j him and 12 others, six of whom were kiLled. Of your son T cannot speak too highly. He always wore a radiating smile that was qniTe a tonic to his comrade- You may well be proud of him and his memory, and though such a parting is bard, T hope in your tribulation you will be strengthened by the knowledge that he fell gloriously doing his hit nobly to the end and surrounded by comrades who loved him and mourn his loss." HE DID HIS DUTY. Lanoe-Corpl. W. J. James, Welsh Rert., son of Mr. John James, Upper Mill, Llanelly, has been killed in action in France. Before the war, Lance-Corpl.

TUBERCULOSIS TREATMENT. A Council meeting of the Welsh National Memorial Association was held at Llandrindod Wells on Saturday morn- ing. Mr. D. S. Davies (Denbigh) was voted to the chair. The General Director reported that the Privy Council had agreed to the payment of the expenses of members in accordance with the scheme to be approved by the Welsh Insurance Comini.-Moncr.s. He further stated that the medical staff had been depleted by cent., and the office stuft, by fil per ren* but the work done was greater than in any previous year. The report was presented and, in reply to the discussion, the General Director said that it was proposed, after the war. t ) a return regarding the after- results. The return would he prepared by a Dlpdica 1 ntficrr who was also a statis- tician. The medical opinion was that five years' work was necessary before a report of value could be prepared. One tuberculosis physician had followed up ten cases. Two he could not (race, one was dead, and seven others were working a1 their original occupations. With re- gard to the detention of patients, public opinion was growing in its. favour. Many resolutions had been passed and sent to the Local Government Board, but the question was whether the powers should be given first or the buildings erected. During the year over 200 bad left institu- tion; against medical orders. This num- ber included women with children.

A GERMAN CRIME. CAPTAIN OF BRUSSELS EXECUTED BARBARITY THAT EQUALS MURDER OF I UUHSE GAVtlL I FARCE OF COURT-MARTIAL Charles Fryatt, the commander of the Great Eastern !iner Brussels, which was captured by enemy destroyers and taken to Zeebrugge as a pnw, has been shot by order of a German naval court-martial. Captain Fryatt was condemned to d-eath because, although he was not a member of a combatant force, he made an attempt to ram a German submari net This fact, on which he was apparently found guilty, was disclosed by a gold watch which had been presented to him by the British Admiralty as a reward ior gallantry. The following statement, which was issued last night from the Foreign Office, was sent to the United States Ambassador on July 20, urging Captain Fryatt's legal right to attempt to ram the submarine as an act of dele-Dee:- His Majesty's Government consider that the act of » merchant ship m steering for an enemy submarine and forcing her to dive is essentially defen- sive, and precisely on the same footing as the use by a defensively armed vessel of her defensive armament, in order ro resist capture, which both the United States Government and bis Majesty's Government hold to the exercise of an undoubted right AMERICA S EFFORT. Correspondence between the Foreign Office and the United States Ambassador ooncerning the fate of the crew of the Brussels and the trial of Captain Fryatt was issued last night. On June 28 the Upited States Ambas- sador reported thdt the officers and crew were cafe and well, and that they had been interned at Ruhleben. The five steward- esses were separated from the rest of the crew at Cologne, and inquiries were being made of the German Government a,s to their whereabouts. An appeal was also made that they should be repatriated. In another message the Ambassador was requested to take all possible step*; to secure the proper defence of Captain Frvatt. CAPTAIN FRYATT. Captain Fryatt, like most of the officers and crew of the Brussels, lived at Har- wich, and as a result of his several ex- citing adventures with German sub- marines during hi., trips to Roterdam and hack he had won the sobriquet among sea- faring men of the Pirate dodger." The news of the captain's execution was received in Harwich with horror mingled with grief. He leaves a wife and seven children—six girls and a boy. The eldest is only 18 and the youngest a few mouths under three. A native of Southampton, Captain Fryatt had been in the service of the G.E.R. from boyhood, serving on their cargo steamers, first as deck-hand. By diligence to duty and smart seamanship he gradualy rose, until he reached the position of captain, a post he had dis- charged with conspicuous zeal and ability.

THE CHANNEL TUNNEL. Growing Support for the Pro ject. i Mr. Arthur Fell. M. P., chairman of the House of Commons Channel Tunnel Committee on Friday night entertained a number of prominent members of Parlia- ment. together with distinguished repre- sentatives from France and Belgium. It is clear that considered opinion is rapidly growing in favour of the project. Amongst the prominent guests were M. Yves Guyot, M .A. Thierry, M. Montier (Chcmin de Fer <lu Nord), N-F. (,oppM, Baron Emile d'Erlanger (chairman Oh.irv- iiel Tunnel Co.), Mr. Cosmo Bonsor, th-e Right Ilon. Sir Alfred Mond, Bart., P.O., M.P., Sir Sam Fay, Sir Henry Dalziel, f.r.. Major-General Sir Ivor Herbert. Mr. Ernest Bergman, Sir T. Azg- Gardner. M.P., Mr. Joynwm-Hicks, M.P., .Nl 'T'. P. ()'(-on-n,)r, M.P.. Mr. T. F. Rawlinson, K.C., M.P., and Sir Francis Lowe, M.P. COMMITTEE GROWING. Mr. Jell said that some tour or five rears aso ann In ber of members of the House thought the time had come to re- vive the Tunnel scheme. The Commit- tee was small'at that time, but it ba(l grown since and was being added to al- most daily. They ought to be ready to start on the works as soon as the necessary labour was available. M, Yves Guyot, the French economist, said that France had long ago made no its mind on the mutual advantages which the tunnel would brine;. Sir Francis Fox. the great funnel ("T1- said thp reason why the Tube rail- ways were built so far down was that they should pass through thp bed of blue clay, and a better nintcrial for driving tunnels could not be conceived. It so happened that for the Channel Tunnel there was a very similar heel, although it, was chalk, and chalk was porous, there had been, in the course of ages, an in- filtration of mud, so that the filter was choked.
