"TOLL IS RISING
rightful Proportions = Are Likely, Statisticians
By Science Service NEW YORK, Sept. 19.—Tuberculosis is now taking an increasing toll in war torn Europe, and in less advanced countries the death rate is likely to mount to frightful proportions as in 1914-1918, statisticia; here are convinced. : “Despite absence of statistics, it is certain that tuberculosis is on the rise in all the areas that have been overrun,” says a study by Metropolitan Life Insurance Co. statisticians. .
lands outsite the Nazi grip. Vichy reports a sharp increase in tuberculosis. In England and Wales the
civilians has risen 13 per cent. For females the increase was 7 per cent. The longer the war, and the farther it extends, the greater will be the tuberculosis: toll, particularly on the Continent; the statisticians predict. In the first World War, every belligerent country had an in‘crease in this disease, and virtually all neutral countries of Europe had an actual increase or were set back in their fight to control tuberculosis. In England, ‘pulmonary tuberculosis deaths were 25 per cent higher in 1918 than in 1913. Among German women the rate was nearly 75 per cent higher, While Germany today is in the most favorable position of the Continental areas, the statisticians say it is unlikely that Germany has escaped an increased tuberculosis toll in this war.

. Times Special : ; WASHINGTON, Sept. 19—Rep. Louis Ludlow (D. Ind.) today put into tke Congressional Record a letter published in “The Pointer,” the U. 8. Military Academy cadet publication, which deals directly wit hthe matter of -Army morale. The insertion was made upon request of Maj. . Gen. William CC; Rivers, a retired officer living in New York City. Rep. Ludlow said, Although ' published in the West Point magazine recently, the letter was written by an A. E. F. officer to his son at West Point during World War One. This “advice from an old soldier to a young ohe” included these excerpts which The Pointer made clear are still applicable to Army life today. “Tre men I have seen succeed here appear to me to be generally the ones .I saw doing well before the war, and for the same reasons as to character, energy, and application. It has seemed to me, therefore, that the old rules of conduct and preparation are the only ones that I know about yet . . . Sar , “One or two old and well-known
