By HENRY C. NICHOLAS Central Press Correspondent CHARLESTON, 8. C. — The sick and wounded of our armed forces are returning home. And they are coming home in Ameri- can ships—the finest of their kind to be found an e in the world. Many of these ships were fa- meus luxury liners of pe which have been convert floating hospitals Ame shinyards—ships such as the Ital- ' The Saturnia, with knots and gross l(nnd,’:c of 24,470 in luxury liners which once helonged to Germany and France, which are now servihz as hospital ships. Others were spe- cially built in this country. The Army Transportation Corps now operates 22 floating hospitals and the Navy has five. More are peing built in this country at the rate of two a month. They ave built to bring your husband, son or sweetheart "back home in ¢ srt—and in betfer health than \\‘nn he first arrived sspital. ‘they arp 1 ship has 14,- 000 tons dispiacement and is 522 ect in length. The exterior of the ship is painted a glisi ng white and the hulls and decks are bril- liantly illuminated at night No Weapons The Geneva Red Cross is prom- inently displaycd on the gides, on of deck and on the stacks, and a five- foot green band runs around the entire hull. There is not a weapon aboard and hospita! ships are giv- en protection by all civilized na- tions at war——so you do not have to worry about the ship getting through. On this typical ship there are 12 wards, completely equipped. Each has a surgical dressing room, diet pantry, linen locker, utility toom, toilet and shower. The main laboratory contains the finést items of equipment such as high speed centrifuge, bacterio- logical incubator, autoclaves and esgcntials. The doctors an®™kurgeons have an abundant supply of drugs and other items, many of which cannot be found in civilian life. Each ship carries a dental as well as an op- tical unit.

For the patient who can enjoy | them there is a recreation room, | a library, sun decks and other fa- cilities, including a spotless, at- tractive dining saloon. For the pa- tient who is bed ridden, the diet kitchen prepares attractive trays specially cooked f00ds. By May of this year the Army Transportation Corps expects to| have 29 ambulance-type hospital ships in operation, with a total ca- pacity of more than 18,000 sick and wounded. The result of the operation of the hospital ships now in use has amazed the Medical Corps. Sea air, sun baths, good companionship, rest, good food—plus fine, gentle and skilled medical treatment— have werked wonders for these pa- tients. A quite surprising number have arrived virtually well. The historic city of Charleston, because of its excellent port facili- ties and strategic location, has be- come the home base of Uncle Sam's magnificent fleet of hospital ships. “We average two hospital ships a week,” said Lt. F. M. Gray, as- sistant public relations officer. “But T rccall the time when we have handled as many as four. On one cccasion two hospital ships arriveu tne samne aay.” No reiatives are. permitted ta view the landing operations or board the hospital ship. There vould be entirely too much con- fusion, emotional disturhancas d, possibly, setbacks in the pa- tient’s condition. The unloading of the patients is carried through under the direc- tion of Brig. Gen. James T. Duke, | with & speed and efficiency an au- tomobile asscmbly line might well envy. Three Patient Groups Before the ship has docked the patients havé been divided into threc groups and a tag pinned on their Khaki overcoats. The blue tag means a medical case who can usually walk, a red tag a surgical case, and a green tag a neuro- rsychiatric patient. In less than 10 minutes the urgent cases, which are usually the N. P. patients, are in the Stark General hospital under medical treatment and getting the most skilled attention. Everything moves quickly, amazingly, effici- ently, and in a little more than two hours every patient is resting in the hospital. Most of the patients, even those lying helpless on a stretcher, seem to have souvenirs of which they are jealously proud—a bayonet, a turban, a knife, a helmet. Frequently the accumulation is so large that in addition to the two litter bearers, another hos- pital ship attendant must follow the stretcher carrying the souve- nirs. The soldier watches this at- tendant and if he gets separated from him, he raises cain. Nearly always the first ques- tion the soldier asks on reaching the Stark General is, “Where’s the telephone?” The hospital = staff knows where the wounded Joe is from and his request is promptly answered. Those who can walk are con< ! ducted to booths where they can ¢ . lalk in private. For those in wheel- chairs, or lying helpless in bed, a new type of telephone is handed them. It looks like a big cello- phane box that is placed over the | patient’s head. In this he can talk privately to his mother, his wife or his sweet- : heart without leaving his wheel- chair or his bed. Even a soldier who has lost his arm can use this new phone with ease. The telephone company in Charleston is advised of the ar- rival of'a hospital ship, and every effort is made to have the lines cleared for these calls. They are given precedence over all other IN GALLEY—anu, comp'mn dmlclam, wpcmu food pnpumnvn telephone business, Empire wan: ads gei quick resuits HOSPITALS ON THE HIGH SEAS| U S.
