To save steel for. the manufacture of ships and munitions, tin-plate manufacture ht England has been cut down as much as possible, says Com- mercial -Attache Philip B.

Alreadfall sort of substitutes are being used for tin-plate in manu- facturing containers. At the present „time, according to Mr, Kennedy, tin containers are used practically for meat and processed foodstuffs only. Since last September oflicial'regula- tions have prohibited the packing of fruits, dried footstuffs and semi- liquid foods in tin-plate,. The use of this material for lining packages for the export of textile and other goods has also been forbidden, and an attempt at economy was made by in- sisting that meat be paeicecl and milk canned in larger containers. Oil cans Were doubled in size, and tinned iron drums were used for petroleum pro- ducts in India. Mr. Kennedy continues: "Fui•tlfer efforts have been made to introduce substitutes for use in the army, Card- board, wood ,and fibre are now sub- stituted for tin-plate in the manu- facture of such things as card -index boxes and workmen's checks, while earthenware bowls are used instead of the old puddling bowls.

BRITISH WOMEN WORKING FOR THEIR ESTABLISHMENT. Between 37,000 and 40,000 Physically Defective Children in Need of Education. Aar - British women have not been con• tent to wait for the day fhen they can exercise the franchise before dealing with the question of the education of mental and physical ,defective school children," says a despatch from Lon- don. A special subcommittee of the Joint Parliamentary Advisory Council, com- posed of women social workers and members of Parliament, has just is- sued its report upon the existing per- missive educational •provision made for these defective children, - The report, while paying a high tri-' bute to the good work done voluntar- ily by the London County Cuncil-and other bodies, calls attention to the urgent need of making the acts of Parliament dealing with these chil- dren compulsory, and not permissive. According., to authorities on child life there are to -day in the country between 37,000 and 40,000 'children who are crippled or otherwise physic- ally defective, the greater number of whom are being deprived of the edu- cation that they are entitled to re- ceive. The difficulty in providing schools for these children has been largely owing to local financial conditions, hi the case of a scattered district with few defective children the question of the cost of transport has been a vital one, while to run a special school for a few children would have increased considerably the local education taxa- tion. In the case of children residing in districts adjacent to a special.'" school the difficulty has been over- come in a measure by providing a• ---r conveyance and paying a share of the costs of school maintenance, but these exceptions have been rare. Residental Plan. Favored An attempt is to be made to extend a clause of the present education bill to provide for openitg special resid- ental schools for chilcaaen who are un- able to obtain education otherwise. Sir Thomas Barlow, Physician Ex- traordinary to the King, favors this plan. He says: ' "The suggested amendment to the education bill, which eines at the com- pulsory supply of schools for physical- ly defective children, is based on sound policy. ' Those who have care- fully traced the working of such schools are satisfied on two points. The first is that the physically defec- tive children are often found to be ex- ceedingly quick at the 'uptake.' The second ie that experience shows that with proper provision for fresh air, conveyance from home to school and sme other amenities the health of these children can not only be con- served but generally improved."
