The venereal disease rate among soldiers and sailors has been declin- ing steadily and is now lower than | at any time since the beginning of mobilization according to Army and Navy reports. The syphilis rate the lowest in the history of both the Army and the Navy. Definite Headway Scme veter: frankly surprised at the situation Characterizing it as “almost good to be true,” they say the show- ing might be accounted for in part by failure of service men to report infection.

They sum it up simply: “The more pros- titutes, the more contacts, the more contacts, the more disease.” Chiefs of Police has enlisted in the government’s war on honky-tonks and trailer carriers of vice. With the cooperation of police authorities, redlight districts have been closed and cheap hotels quar- antined in more than 300 localities The War Department, under authority of the May Act passed by, Congress a year ago, has set up two [ zones in which prostitution is pun- ishable by fines of $1,000 and im- prsonment of one year.
