e A e S0 A S =~ TYESDAY. EVENING; APRIL 15, 1919 LUNG DISEASES LEAD ARMY ILLS Estimated That There Are 40;- 000 Cases Which Will Re- quire Supervision. FOLLOW CANADIAN SYSTEM Major Amputation Cases in United 8tates Forces Put at 3,034—Each Case Has its Own Problem— Re-education for Many. Washington.—Out of 7,710 cases of discharged disabled men from .army, navy and marine corps whose cases have.been passed upon by the war risk insurance bureau, and who therefore are eligible for free vocational retrain- ing by the federal board for vocational education, 2,791, or 36.2 per cent have tuberculosis, or lung complaints. The federal board stated it is in- formed that first and last, there will be between 80,000 and 40,000 tuberculo- sis cases. Not all of them will re- quire vocational retralning, but the number expected Is large. These cases will be handled on a separate basis from the rest of the in- jured and disabled men, and will re- quire constant supervision asd medi- cal attention to insure the arresting of the disease and complete restora- tion to health. . This is the primary consideration, and training will be only such during this period as to furnish enough occun- pation to keep the patient busy, con- tented :nd hopeful. Follow Canadian System. Canada has been very successful In dealing with her tuberculous army men, and the Canadian system will in many particulars be followed by the federal board with men of the United States forces. The old idea that & man recovered from tuberculosis should do nothing but out-of-doors work is exploded and, according to the federal board, there is a great variety of indoor occupations he can follow with perfect safety, pro- vided his living and working condl- tions are proper. According to official advices the to- tal of “major amputation cases” in the United States forces teo date is 3.034, of which 2,308 are arm and leg cases, and of these approximately 600 are arm amputations and 1,708 are leg am- putations. The remaining 726 are hands, feet, and two or more fingers. Each Case Has Own Problem. Not all of these men require spe clal training to enable them to make a living, the federal board for voca- tional education points but; in fact, the percentage is smaller than one would imagine, A lawyer, doctor, draftsman, bookkeeper, dentist, stenog- rapher, office man or salesman is not necessarily affected: unfavorably in making a living by reason of having lost & leg; but the loss of an arm may be a very serious matter. Those who in the main require re- education on account of leg or arm amputstions are fariners, artisans whosa trades require great activity, such as carpenters, teamsters, struc tural iron workers and the like. There are no hard ang fast rules, and cannot be for each case must be - judged on its own merits, as, for in- stance, that of a professional violin- ist, who, having lost a finger joint of his left hand, found his occupation wholly gone and had to learn. to do something else for a living. BOY BABY BORN IN DEPOT 8tation Attendants Suggest “Gateway” as Name for New Arrival at St. Louls. 8t. Louis.—Baby Griggs, a bouncing ten-pound boy who has mot yet been given his first name, will enjoy a dis- tinction that few bables fall heir to— that of being born in the third largest union raflway station in the Unite¢ States. The event occurred while his par- -ents, Mr. and Mrs. A. W. Griggs, were passing through Kansas City from Ap- pleton City, Mo., en route to thelr home in Marceline, Mo. Mrs. Ruth Griggs, mother of the child, was takep to the hospital room in the Unfon sta- tion, assisted by Matron Mundy, Maid Cecilia Clark and Dr. D. B. Robinson, the station physician. The station officials could not bear to see Baby Griggs leave them with- out being christened some sort of & name, 80 heads were put together and at last a suitable name was found. To employees of the station Baby Grigss always will be known as Gateway Griggs. Overcoat Lined With Bills. Phoenix, Ariz—E. H. Hobby, who gaid he was a relative of Governor Hobby of Texas, and who obtained $1,500 from local banks on presenta- tion of exchange apparently drawn on Texas banks, has been arrested at Sacramento, Cal., where his overcoat was found to have very valuable lin- fng. Into it has been stitched $6,000 in $50 and $100 bills. It is under- stood that he added about a score of Callfornia banks to his list of vie Sufficient Grounds.

These symtpwms simply mean acid- stomach. If allowed to run on, they ancholia, a feeling of listlessness and all-goneness—these are just a few of the disoraers which canbe traced to acid-stomach. As a matter of fact, acid-stomach is often the direct cause of those almost incurable conditions known as catarrh of the stomach, in- testinal ulcer, and cancer of the stom- ach. The lives of those who suffer fromtheseserious troubles are nothing short of caily agony. Surely, then, E. W.
