wounded thus far in world war II have recovered. Prompt and speedy treatment is the keynote on which
the army medical department is organized.
The first mo-|"
bile hospital which the wounded man encounters is the battalion aid station. y This is a miniard ture hospital on Mr. Dietz wheels that goes wherever the troops go. , Litter bearers, picking up the wounded man on the battlefield while the battle is in progress, bring him to this station. Wounded are no longer left in the field until nighftall. . The battalion aid station is best compared to the emergency room of a hospital, where first treatment is given to an accident victim before he is moved into a hospital room. s Two doctors and a number of assistants make up the. staff of the battalion aid station.
Perform Operations
When the_situation demands it, they perform operations. They have all necessary instruments, anesthetics, ete. As a rule, the wounded man remains less than a day at the battalion aid station. As soon as possible, he is moved by ambulancejeep or. some other means to the collecting station. This station is likewise a mobile unit and is brought up as close to . the front line as is feasible.
Hospitals Near Front
The most seriously wounded, those in need -of immediate surgical attention, are sent to mobile field hospitals. These are usually some five to seven miles behind the front line. Men treated at these field hospitals or men whose woounds do not require such immediate attention are then’sent back to the general or base hospitals. These are not mobile. They may be several hundred miles from the scene of battle. But men are brought back swittly - to them by the use’ of ambulance airplanes. Many of the general hospitals have 1000 beds or more and are the equal of the most elaborate city hospitals.

DAVIES BACK HOME
| WASHINGTON, June 4 (U. P.,).! —Joseph E. Davies’ second mission to Moscow is completed, apparently to the satisfaction of everyone concerned. The former American ambassador to the Soviet Union went to Moscow early last month with a special letter from President Roosevelt to Premier Josef Stalin. Last night Davies returned to Washington and spent approximately two hours with Mr. Roosevelt. He brought back a letter from Stalin to Mr. Roosevelt. The contents of neither letter has been, or is likely to be, made public for some time.
