It is drawn up by Palmer of Springfleld, I, and Dr. Henry W. Hoagland of La Jolla, Cal. The physicians reported that they were surprised to find that the in- stitutions were so cfliciently conduct- ed in the face of difficulties and ob- stacles that had to be overcome. They commended the attitudc of the surg- eon-general in seeking to improve the service and readiness to act upon constructive criticism. The chief criticisms of the govern- ment hospitals made by the two physi- clans were: “Shortage of medical personnel, especially trained in the diagnosis and treatment of tuberculosis of speciailly trained lowering of the morale relationship of female. employes Dr. George T. “Shortage nurses and the through the social nurses and other Wklh patients. -k of discipline indicated in the prevalence of gambling, jhe use of the abuse of leaves and fur- loughs and the participation of pa- tients in harmful diversions and amusements. he assignment of the more com- petent members of the medical staff to wards for terminal and advanced patients with less efficient medical service in the wards occupied by the doubtful cases and by patients await- tobacco, and because of the greatly increased demand for physicians with tubercu- lous training. On the whole the physicians stat- ed that they believed that the Unit- ed States Public Health service was entitled to general commendation for the degree of efficiency attained under the conditions prevailing in the estab- lishment of these institutions. “During the next 20 years,” the physicians stated, “but two great medical problems will remain as the aftermath of the war. One of these is that of dealing with mental and nervous cases and the other is the tuberculous problem.” They asserted that the peak of the incidence of tuberculosis resulting from the war not been reached nor will it be for a number of years to come. They predicted that if the federal government met the problem of the tuberculous soldier efficiently and at the same time utilized its opportuni- ties for the benefit of the civil popu- lation there would come, as an in- direct result of the war, an awaken- ing to the importance and magnitude of the tuberculous problem which will prove of tremendous and lasting ben- efit to the nation.

Wentworth of Boston at the convention of the National As- sociaion of Credit Men here toda) Taking as his subject “The Red Peril, Mr. Wentworth, who secretary of the National Fire Protection Associi- ation, said in pa “We have A]nuui 000 of created resourcesin four months of this vear. This leaves us but $138,000,000 for the remain- ing eight months to make up our an- nual ash heap of a quarter of a bil- lion dollars, and there is little doubt that American carelessness will ac- complish this shameful objective. “There are optimists in America who state that we are reducing the fire waste because this average figure 50,000,000 now represents inflat- values. There is little comfort in that academic reflection. The pres- ent housing situation is too desperate for us o be so complacent over it. “The mayor of a western city of 20,000 people told me recently that if one of its stores should burn the own- er would be done for. There is not a vacant shed or shack in the city to hold a new stock of goods. The short age of dwellings is equally acute. A burned out family has to leave town. Every fire in every other city of the country is bringing it so much nearer to a similar situation. Every fire in a dwelling or apartment house intensi- fied an intolérable congestion or turns people into the streets. “Every fire today is a crime against the whole people; a crime for which we should not withhold punishment Every community today for its own preservation should bring swift legal reprisals against the person who has a preventable fire. “In Europe a man who has a fire is looked upon as a public offender. In America he is looked upon as an unfortunate. People still imagine that the underwriters pay the loss; that they pay $250,000,000 a year out of their surplus and capital stock—and remain solvent! The fire waste touch- es the pocket of every man, woman and child in the nation. Every stock of goods is insured; thesinsurance is added to the cost of the goods; and when we buy a hat, or a hoe, or a coat, we pay thig insurance concealed in the price of the goods. “The attorneys-general of half a dozen states habe given it as their official opinion that under the Ameri can common law a man, whose negli- gence causes a fire, is liable for fire damage to his neighbor's house; but nobody thinks of bringing suit. The habit of mind that the insurance com- panies pay the loss is too strong. But as burned $112,000,- the first FROM COAST TO COAST FRIDAY AND SATURDAY ONLY OVERWEIGHT TEAS 20 OZ.
