PRETEND THEY ARE DEAF
TO GET OUT OF THE WAR

ROME, April 14.-Because there
have been in this war number Of
genuine cases of men who have been
struck deaf and dumb by gun shock it
has become favorite form of amling-
ering by men who wish to avoid the
risks of the firing line or particularly
desire to be sent home. They act as
though they could not hear absolutely
nothing. Neither cannonaSe nor
the voices of their mothers who some
times are brought to see them can
they apparently hear. Under these cir
cumstances a shrewd old army doctor
has discovered that the sound of the
dropping of a coin Immediately behind
them almost invariably makes them
