SCIENCE CONGRESS
SESSIONS CONCLUDED VANCOUVER, June 14. The fifth Pacific Science Congress concluded its sessions to-day. The delegates visited the interior of British Columbia. They will disband at Calgary on Monday. No invitation was received for the sixth congress, and a committee was appointed to deal with the question. The council favours a country elsewhere than the North American continent. Numerous resolutions were passed asking that seismologic studies in the Pacific be standardised, and that radiogram earthquake reports be disseminated by rebroadcast over short wave from central stations. Others urged closer co-operation in the fishery and oceanographic sections of the congress.
