MEDICAL SERVICE BETTERMENTISAIM Lessons Gleaned From War Compiled in Britain—All. Powers to Benefit. DEFECTS POINTED OUT Editors Deal Frankly With Short- comings Developed in Army. By the Associated Press. LONDON, July 11.—Lessons from sins of omission and otherwise, in the medical services during the war, have been compiled into an eleven-volume edition of the Official Medical History the Great War, recently They should furnish the bas reorganization of the medi of the forces of the great powers on | a level with modern science, say the editors of this veluminous work The books deal frankly with the tactical and strategi errors of the medical service in the war, notably in areas typical of middle eastern conditions No attempt has been made to gloss these errors. The lack of co-operation between the combat- ant and medical staffs is frequently mnoted, and it is in th that the edi- tors find the greatest lesson aison Needed. some respects faulty was a_factor in the medical servi i Closer L Although in administration breakdown of the the Dardanelles, Mesopotamia East Africa, the chief lesson learned from the study of these cam- paigns, say the editors, is the need of a ciose liaison betwéen the medi- cal administration and the general staff from the outset, and clear and definite preparations before the cam- palgn is begun_to meet all possible contingencies. Too often in the last war the medical service was found to be totally inadequate hecause the ‘medical staffs had no clear idea of what was to be expected of them, or the possible extent of the campaign upon which they were engaged. The Dardanelles operations were an example, it is shown, of the necessity for establishing large general hospi- tals near the scene of operations and for providing a sufficient number of steamers and 1 craft for the evacuation of sick and wounded when the fighting takes place on or near water. In Macedonia the was warfare mountainous or in river valleys, the hotbeds malaria. In_this sector the percent- age of hospital beds to the numbers of troops reached the largest propor- tion, that of one in three.

The medical administration in Mesopotamia during the early period of the campaign was dulled by many years of economy practicing in peace tine in India. This explains why the ambulance w s and cars, hospital steamers and other equipment pro- vided for the services in France were rot cven asked for by the headquar- ters of the Indian expeditionary force. They were unaccustomed to their use The most deplorable was in the actions for the relief of Kut-el-Amara. At that action the medical service found itself with only fourteen sections of field ambulance: instead of the authoriz When the operations toward Kut were started no strenuous efforts had been made to reinforce the medical units or to prepare a plan for the evacuation of the sick and wounded.

They were evacuated to the base on any available boat and ar- rangements at Basra for the disem- barkation of the reinforcing divisions were defective. When the divisions arrived large convoys of sick and wounded were coming down the Tigris. The steamers met at Basra and confusion prevailed. uzicers and men wandered about in mud trying to find their to new camps at Makina and Magil from vague di- rections given them by other over- worked office: —_— STATE INSURES MILITIA.

By the Associated Press. CHICAGO, July 11—Your iceman, provided he has an average route and a distributing territory in the residential district, shoulders two tons of icé a day, carrying each piece a distance of fifty feet, according to 2 survey compiled by the National Assoclation of Ice Industries. These 4,000 pounds of ice are divid- ed among approximately elgkty refrigerators, the survey shows, and the field of work covers an average distance of two miles. An ability to stand the physical strain, at “a threat of impairing health, bothers the iceman less than in keeping on schedule, the associa- tion says, which is endeavoring to put ice routes on the same basis of punctuality as the transportation ems. he iceman’s greatest trouble is keeping on scheduled time, because housewives frequently think he also is an expert in arranging their perish- ables to the best possible cooling re- sults. Often he has to unpack and repack the ice chamber. This is the outstanding cause of delayed service. “The delivery systems are being remodeled and improved and some members have so nearly perfected their systems that schedules are al- most as accurate as that of a pas- senger train. That is our aim.” YOUTH DOOMED TO DIE. Kentuckian Convicted of Bank Robbery Murder.

LONDON, July 11.—A winged in- cendiary rocket which the inventor, Ernest Welch declares will spread a rain of moltén metal over a wide area with devastating results, has been given preliminary tests with satisfac- tory results, according to persons who were present.

BERLIN, July 11—The sale of whipped cream, outlawed early in 1814 as a war measure, is again per- mitted in Germany by government order. This is the last of the food restric- tions to be removed, and within a few days of the announcement every cof- fee house in Berlin was serving “whipped cream” in such amounts that the health authorities investi- gated and, it was stated, ascertained that a substiute of white of egg, evaporated milk and other prepara- tions was being used. i — STEAL $75,000 GEMS.

One crow is known to have eaten 85 May beetles. 72 wireworms, or 123 grasshoppers within an hour or two says Nature Magazine. Even the nkest of anti-crow partisians must admit a bird doing this has actual powers for great good. When broods of four young may be found that have eaten over 400 grasshoppers, and other broods of seven a total of more than 580 during a few hours, the beneficial influence of a crow family becomes evident. St They Battle Pests. From April to August, inclusive, insects are over a third of the adult crow’s diet and include such notori- ous pests as May beetles (the adult form of the white grub), wireworms, cutworms, and grasshoppers. Nest- ling crows, says Nature Magazine, outdoing their parents in insect con- sumption during the spring months, get nearly half 'of their sustenance from these insects.

HANOVER, Germany, July 11.— While popular indignation over the alleged indifference of the police to the case of Friedrich Haarmann, con- fessed mass murderer, is growing, the (Slayer himself is taking his situation with cslmness and poise and is ask- ing to be beheaded, “as I deserve to be.” “I don't remember the names of all of my victims,” Haarmann told inter- viewers today. “You see, they came so fast that I really did not have a good chance to get well acquainted with them.” He recalled having slain not less than a dozen boys and young men and was quite certain there were many more whom he did not recall. As a result of the alleged indiffer- ence of the police with respect to the inquiries of parents whose sons are missing, a popular mass meeting was called, at which the indictment was demanded of police officials who are believed to be in possession of accu- rate knowledge of Haarmann's whole- sale butchery. The room in which the “modern Giles de Retz” slaughtered his victims is situated on the top story of a de- crepit tenement house facing the River Leine. The bodles of the slain persons were thrown into this river, the bottom of which is now being dragged for further evidence. Sovm s s STABBING PROVES FATAL.

By the Associated Press, MANILA, July 11.—Complete papers in the cases of fifty-four of the 110 members of the 57th Infantry and 12th Medical Regiment, Philippine Scouts, who have been charged with insubordination because of forma- tion of a secret body to seck pay in- creases ard subsequent refusal of duty, have been received at depart- ment headquarters here from Fort McKinley, the regiment’s station. The papers ade being examined by the legal and administrative branches of the department staff concerned in the summary dismissal of soldiers ex- hlbltlng‘ undesirable traits. Owing to the necessity of having a board of officers inquire into the merits of each case individually, none has reached the final stage. Officers at both Fort McKinley and army headquarters here report they have been approached by many indi- dividual members of the scouts, not af- fillated with either regiment named, who have protested their loyalty toward the United States as individuals and have given assurances of the loyalty of the units to which they belong. These men, the officers say, are very anxious to make it clear that they have not participated and could not be made to participate in any insub- ordination, No further symptoms of unrest have been brought to light at either Fort McKinley or elsewhere in the department.
