To study existing iaws affecting| {children and the efficiency with whicn they are administered. | To suggest standards for the admi istration of existing laws, laws pro-| posed and child welfare agencies. | To inform the public as to existing ; conditions, as to desirable standards, as to possible improvements in con-| ditions, and as to the scope of the} {commission's work, | To report the findings and recom- mendations of the commission to the {governor and legislature. | To propose new measures and amendments to existing laws and io assist in the adoption of the legis- lative program. The commission has been divided into two working groups. A group! consisting of Dr. A. J.

Members of the body which met here jconsists of seven members appointed \by the governor. Théy are: C. L.

Constabulary In Action Last night Ulster special! constabul- ary, nearly all former soldiers, were in action in the Stanhope street area. Sniping is carried out on the most approved lines, field glasses being us- ed by the snipers. At 4 o'clock this afternoon the city was comparatively quiet. The military had taken to street duty al- though they had not gone into Royal avenue. Traffic had been restored in York street. So bad was the rioting in York street in the early hours of the day that the workers in the big spinning works were allowed to leave. When it was time to report for work this morning they were unable to enter the factory by the door which was directly in the line of the fire and it was necess- ary .to. knock a hole in the. factory wall on the side street. Tram cars this morning raced through the riot. district of North Queen street and old lodge road, pas- sengers lying on the floors to escape the bullets, but an Englishman on his honeymoon was shot in the abdomen and is in a critical condition. Fierce revolver fighting between Loyalists and Sinn Feiners caused scenes of the, wildest excitement in some of the city’s main thoroughfares. The staff in the hospitals have been strained to the utmost caring for those wounded in last night’s rioting. Armed Men Take Shop The rioting and outlawry culmi- nated at 9 o’clock in the appearance of a party of armed men with rifles who entered Stanhope street, took pos- session of a shop, established po- sitions on the ground floor and opened a hot fire. Pedestrians stam- peded from the fusillade. Many who ‘were near enough to see the’ men dur- ing the shooting declared the rifles they carried were brand new. It was the most serious incident of th fight: ing since it broke out Monday.? 1} !/ The exchange of shots between con- tending parties began early in the morning and gradually spread over an extensive area with an increaging in- tensity. During a fusillade on North Queens street two persons were killed and a dozen’ were wounded. An arm- ored car was sent to the scene to stop the fighting.
