A circular letter has been sent to
members of these boards soliciting
their cooperation and requesting
names of surgeons in their districts
capable of doing brain surgery.
A tentative plan was outlined Tor
the establishment of schools for the
instruction of surgeons classified On
the brain surgery section. It neces-

ranged along an anatomical, clinical
and operative line and will extend
over q period of from four TO six
weeks.
Laboratory Work Important.
A plan to insure good laboratory
work in connection with the opera
tive work of the brain surgery sec
ton was discussed. This branch OF
the service is considered most i'm
portant, not alone from the stand
MONT of the soldier, but because the
neurological material which will be
obtained will have q tremendous

ii FATALITIES IN EVERY 1000
OF MOBILIZED STRENGTH
IN FIGHTING ON THE
WESTERN FRONT.
Proportion Dying of Wounds Or
Killed in Action Never Greater
Than 20 Per Cent of All
Casualties.

The Committee on Public Infor
nation has ob2sined from offic,a
sources the most nearly accurate fig
ures possible on the percentage OF
fatalities in relation to casualties on
the western front. These figures,
taken when the casualties were
greatest in proportion to mobil'zed
strength and combined with the
highest proportion of deaths, show
losses due to deaths from wounds
and killed in action to be approx
mately II in every 1000 of mob l.
lied strength.
High-Water Mark Early In War.
According to the figures present
ed by the French High Commission
er in his letter to the Secretary of
War, the high-water mark of casual
ties in the French Army was reached
early in the war-at the battles of
Charleroi and the Marine. The cas-
ualties in that period were 5.4l per
cent of the modified strength. or
Sal men in every 10000 with the
colors.
Military experts In this country
agree that the killed in action and
died of wounds have never at any
time in this war exceeded 20 per
cent of the total casualties. This
gives a figure of 1882 fatalities from
these causes in every 10000 mohdliz-
ed strength, or practically IL men
killed in action or died of wounds
for every 1000 men with the col0rs.
