Harrisburg telegraph. [volume] (Harrisburg, Pa.) 1879-1948, 1917-02-16

Association, in Cincinnati, on "How
the American Red Star Can Assist the
Government" said in part:
aside from the pressing need for
veterinary hospitals, bandages, medi-
cines and other veterinary supplies,
the one thing which is needed more
than anything else in the United
States army is an extra trained corps
of veterinarians and farriers. 1t is in
helping to provide these trained men
that the American Red Star Animal
Relief can render immediate and in
valuable service to the government.
"In the event of war each of the IS
States would supply some mounted
organization for service. Our present
force of ESQ, 900 men would be quickly
raised to half a million; probably
more. Such a force calls for q large
number of veterinarians and farriers
who are trained and ready to look
after the animals that form an I'M
portant part of the equipment in
army transportation.
"The mobilization of the troops on
the Mexican border resulted in a
great scramble for veterinarians to
look after the animals that were sent
down with the regulars and militia.
The War Department has just author
lied the distribution of 6,475 horses
among the organized militia for use
in the cavalry, field artillery and
signal corps. The respective States
will supply between 5000 and 1000
more. These animals must be looked
after.
"The first step is to provide suit
able training schools where volun-
teers may be taught first aid and
given other necessary training for
| field work among animals. A cam
paign must be started for recruits
who will avail themselves of this SER
vice and agree to enroll for army
animal relief work in case of war.
THE veterinary service has just
been given standing in the Army by
| being incorporated as a part of the
medical department. There are ap-
proximately 100 veterinarians with
rank but entirely without enlisted
! personnel The Red Star should be
able to enroll 10000 to $4,000 trained
| farriers in view of the 5000 that Eng
land has been able to get. In case
of war there is no time to tram men
or horses. They simply go to the
