The total number of blind persons in New Zealand, according to the annual report of the New Zealand Institute for the Blind, increased from 976 to 1080 up to March 31 this year. The increase, says the report, ws due mainly to the added registrations of elderly persons whose blindness was primarily incidental to old age. The number on the roll of the institute at Auckland was given as 173, or two more than last year. This total was made up as follows: Resident men, 36; day men; 53; resident women, 16; senior resident girls, 4; day women, 4; resident schoolboys, 14; resident senior boys, 5; day schoolboys, 3; resident schoolgirls, 12; day girls, 3; ekterly men at Bledlsloe House, 19.

The Dunedin United ’”emperance Reform Council adopted the following resolution to be forwarded to the Minister of Transport the Hon. R. Semple): “That the most effective way of protecting sober motorists and other users of the highways would be to enact a law to the effect that the driving licence of evei-y motorist convicted of being intoxicated in charge of a car should thereby auton>attcally be cancelled for three years (minimum) ' >r a first offence, and six years (minimum) for a second conviction. The Dunedin Tempe’ance Council believes that the Government holds in this the most powerful weapon in dealing with drinking motorists, but it must be made automatic upon conviction and imposed upon everyone alike.”
