GUARD SELVES
General Medical Board Is to Aid
Council of National De-
tense in This.
FACE PROBLEM FRANKLY
Confluence is Recognized rs
Compatible With Health and
Army and Navy Men Viii
Have to Arrange Conduct.

Washington, May 7-pecisiye steps
for the hygienic and mental welfare
of the nations soldiers and sailors
have been determined upon by the
council of national defense as strict
war measure. The council, guided by
the general medical board, has pre-
pared to strike at the presence of i'll
sidious diseases and at alcoholism in
all military commands.
Decisions were announced yester
day as follows:
First, that under military control
an effective zone shall be created
about all military commanders as the
most practical and effective measure
to preveg. insidious diseases. Second
that thes military zones shall serve
as a means of control of all alcoholic
beverages to the troops. These de
cisions are reached by the council
after exhaustive study of conditions
yesterday among great European
armies.
Zones about the military com
mands will, therefore, he created and
conditions in these zones will be
guarded by military measures so as
to prevent the spread of disease. The
two military arms of the government
officially recognize that confluence
is compatible with health.
The council also recommends, as
a further solution of the problem
that all military commands be pro
vided with good facilities for the rec
reation of the troops. 1t urges that
all suitable athletics be encouraged.
1.-The use of alcohol beverages on
the part of soldiers and sailors i'll
military commands has long been un'
der military control. But the cfea-
ton now of these military zones will
in effect extend such control over
the troops when they are off duty out
OF the commands"
ITO face these ugly facts in an un-
flinching and no half-hearted fash
ion" said DIR. Franklin II. Martin
member of the national defense,
makes for the fighting power of the
nation. But our troops are insepara-
bly, part OF our civil life, and a clean,
wholesome, temperate life among
these troops will in the end make
for our civil advancement, compared
to which the cost of the war is moth
ing. The whole nation is indebted to
the general medical board for its
thorough-going research and for its
definite recommendation in the mat
ter of real protection to our boys"
