Because his institution may not be able to care for all the patients. Dr. White has been given authority to send the men to hospital? throughout the

country, the government paying for the service. "I will not estimate the number of men I expect to treat," said Dr. White. "The very bst we may hope for Is several thousand. The science of restoring their minds will progress rapidly." Mental examiners will vlFlt cantcnment canps to see that drafted men who seem likely to succumb easily to intense nervous excitement are exempted from foreign service.
