ereal diseases.
3. Cooperation with private practi-
TONERS in minimizing the dissemfna-
ton Of infections.
4. Extension of laboratory, clinical,
and advisory service for venereal dis
eases in communities under civil aus
pices.
Efforts along each Of these lines will
simplify and render more effective the
army measures.
Commission on Training Camp ActivI-
ties.
In order to deal effectively with so
cial hygiene in all its phases the sec
Rotary of war has created the commits
sion on training camp activities to
carry out the law enforcement regula-
tons promulgated by him under the
authority of congress and the presi-
dent This commission has also been
charged with important activities in
furnishing recreation for the troops.
Under these two divisions the commits
sion's work as it Indirectly bears on
the control of venereal diseases may
be summarized as follows:
A. LAW ENFORCEMENT.
L.
prostitution In the cantonment zones.
2. Repression of clandestine prosti-
tuition
g. Control Of alcohol and other aids
to prostitution.
A. Combating OF gambling, use Of
drugs, and other harmful practices.
B. RECREATION MEASURES.
s. Social and educational activities
of recreation huts in the environments,
and of recognized agencies in the can
Torment zones
s. Theatrical and other entertain
ment programs.
4. Athletic contests, tournaments,
and games.
s. Reception tents for visitors.
8. Libraries of popular books and
other facilities provided under the di-
!rection Of the commission.
Civil Authorities.
1t is recognized that neither the
measures within the military estab-
lishments nor the supplementary meas
ures in specified zones can achieve the
largest success without full co-opera
tion of civil authorities in enforcing
equivalent measures in all communi-
ties accessible to the personnel Of the
military forces. The carrying out of
the following program, which has been
inaugurated in many cities and towns,
is of great Importance to the army and
to national efficiency.
l. Enforcement of laws and ordin-
ances against prostitution and alcohol.
2. Establishment of proper facilities
fer advice and treatment OF persons in
facted with venereal diseases.
3. Provision Of attractive recreation
and entertainment for the leisure
hours of the population.
4. Moral protection and education of
women and girls.
NonofficIaI Agencies.
The complicated interlocking Of mill
ftary and civil interests in the protec-
ton of soldiers and civilians from vice
and disease affords an opportunity fer
many useful activities of volunteer
agencies. This is particularly true in
the field of social hygiene. In the In
terest of efficiency and avoidance Of
confusion and duplication of effort a
small number of such agencies have
been recognized as clearing houses
for military-civil work Of a very large
n11rnber of organizations in their re-

sibility for health conditions in civil
