In your Civil War" he said, 1T was
case of raising armies of unframed
men to fight armies of unframed men
while with us the small nucleus of reg
ular officers who survived the retreat
had to train even larger forces to meet
a military machine which had had
forty years of preparation. Not only
man to man, but in organization must
we make ourselves superior to our
powerful enemy. The training of bat
talions and the manufacture of guns
in England and their transfer to
France represented only the first stage
of real preparation for our task. Here
they must be organized into divisions,
corps and armies under the actual con-
ditions of warfare before they could
become worthily effective as a whole
in any decisive effort against a foe
whose staff training. reinforced by ex-
perience in the field must remain ex-
cellent, however exhausted he be-
comes. Every day he grows weaker
and we grow stronger. Owing to the
indomitable spirit of our officers and
men in learning we are accomplishing
what seemed the impossible to many
soldiers at the outset of the war. Our
cause gives us strength; for we are
fighting for civilization. Those who
have looked to us for victory will have
their patience rewarded"

From this retreat a vast army is be-

an army still in the making. The staff
always refer to him as The Chief"
There is something impersonal about
1t and yet PERSONAL; for he is abso-
lutely the chief. There is no sugges-
ton of any commission system in the
command of the British army these
days.
The man and his method are as
quiet as the room. With a battle
front which remains in the same place
month after month the routine of his
work has become almost as set as his
habitation and not unlike that OF the
autocrat of some great business organ

Sleeps Long Hours
Like General Joffre he sleeps long
hours. A rested mind is a clean mind
for great responsibilities Like Won
Hindenburg he never reads fiction.
When reading has not to do with his
profession it is of serious books and
monthlies and quarterlies. Even dur
ing the battle of Ypres when it was

soGndly as Joffre during the battle of
the M@rne. At a crisis of the retreat
from Mons he remarked as quietly as
If he were giving a direction to an

for a while If we all die for it." There
is never any fustion about these mod

Blacklist Halts Goods
For South Americans

New York, July 81. - Orders from
South American countries for large
quantities of foodstuffs, farming i'm
plements, household articles and other
materials used in domestic pursuits
were held up yesterday by the action
of the British Government in extend
ing to this country the blacklist of
the Foreign Trade Department under
the British Trading with the Enemy
Act.
The danger of lawsuits and other
complications arising out of the in
ability of shippers TO fulfil con-
tracts because of the blacklisting led
to numerous inquiries at the office of
the British Consulate by individuals
and firms who are engaged in the ex-
port and import business. Some OF
the largest foreign trade houses in
structed their clerks not to accept
any shipments until the British agents
had been asked about the status OF
the customers.

OPERATIONS WILL
NOW BE DEFINED
w ork mems Compensation
Board Will Have Important
Session Here Wednesday

The difference between major" and
minor" surgical operations under the
workmen's compensation act will be
taken up by the board, at its meeting
in this city next Wednesday. The opin-
ions OF eminent surgeons have been
sought, and DIR. Francis D. Patterson,
chief of the State Division of Hygiene,
assisted by a committee of experts, has
offered a comprehensive definition
which the board will consider.
Under the act the medical expenses
granted for the first ii days may
amount to s25; or if there has been a
major operation SIS. 1t has seemed
10 those administering the act that
every operation has tended TO be a
major rather than a minor one. The
question has puzzled referees, and no
surgeon would hazard an opinion as
TO what was a major and what a
minor operation.
To obviate further misunderstanding
the Workmen's Compensation Board,
through Harry A. Mackey, its chair
man, appealed to DR.. Patterson for an
official definition. In framing the de-
finition DR.. Patterson was assisted by
FIVE surgeons as follows: DR.. John
NJ. Baldy. president of the Bureau of
Medical Education and Licensure of
the State; DR.. J. B. McAllister, of Har-
risburg, president of the State Medical
Society; DR.. W. L. Estes, surgeon TO
St. Luke's Hospital, South Bethlehem.
Pa; DR.. Robert G. Leconte. surgeon to
the Pennsylvania Hospital. and DR..
Edward Martin, professor of surgery
at the University Hospital,
As so denned, a major surgical oper-
alton is I'D a surgical procedure
which ent-ls immediate serious conse-
quence to the patient; (2) it is sur
gical procedure which requires skill
and training to perform; (3) all oper-
ative procedures other than finger and
toes, amputations cleansing and
draining and closing of wounds, evacu-
ating secretions by incision, the man
ipulating and reduction of uncompli-
Gated dislocations the treatment of
uncomplicated fractured ribs, the re-
moval of superficial foreign bodies
from the eye and the removal of sub
cutaneous foreign bodies should be re-
garded as major operations.
The term major operations would
include the setting OF fractures of long
bones and reducing of subluXations,
providing accuracy and efficiency of
reduction and retention be demon
strated by X-ray taken before and aft
er surgical treatment"
The report of this body Of surgeons
also emoodies the suggestions that all
fees and charges for major operations
should be limited to such charges as
are reasonable for similar treatment
of injured persons OF like standard of
living in the same community where
such treatment is paid for by the in
jured person.
