ALL 1T COSTS TO RECLAIM UN-
FIT FOR ARMY SERVICE BY
PLAN OF CLEVELAND PHYSI-
CIAN-WILL GET AFTER 2.OOO,-
900 STRIKERS.
Staff SpeciaI.

Washington, D c., June 12.=NIil-
lions of men rejected from service for
physical reasons will have a chance
to enter the army or navy after 90
ing through a combined medical and
military training, if the plan of DR..
John H. Quayle of Cleveland is
adopted by the government.
DR.. Quayle has seen Secretary of
War Baker and Brigadier General
Gorgas, surgeon general of the army,
and both soficials enthusiastically APP
prove his plan. 1t is left to congress
to pass upon it.
According to DR.. Quayle, it would
cost 800 to reclaim each man for
service, but would mean a saving of
81 1000. addition of a another fighter
against the kaiser, and prevention of
an inferior race, after the war.
According to statistics on the per
centage of men accepted under the
volunteer system, it would be impos-
sible to get more than 100000 from
the 100000 men who have regis
tered" says DR.. Quayle. Between
100000 and 100000 would be
barred for physical defects"
Half these DR., Quayle estimates,
may be exempt because of their rela-
tives. About 100000 remain to be
reclaimed.
DR. Quayle's plan would get after
the shirkers especially and force
them into proper physical shape, put
them into service and make the coun-
try safe from their parasitic infu-
enCe.
"a thoroughly trained medical man
could put 90 per cent of these rejec-
tions in condition to pass the exami-
nation in from three to six months"
says DR. Quayle Military training
would be a part of their routine.
Two million men between the ages
of q and 81 have absolutely no
visible means of support and are loaf
ers and leeches on society. They are
physically unfit because of their self
indulgence and vicious habits which
could be regulated under my plan.
"My plan is the appointment of a
commission by the government, which
should organize a training camp in
every state with suitable hospital
facilities to reclaim rejected men.
Each camp should be supervised by
military officers who would carry out
the recommendations of the medical
men"
DR.. Quayle has already volunteered
his services and has been Joined by
other prominent physicians through
out the country. His plan has been
heartily approved by military officers
who see in it a way to make the
army of the United States the lare-
est and most physically fit in the
world. n

COUNTY BOARD
HOLDS MEETING

Miscellaneous matters occupied
much of the time of the board of
county commissioners Tuesday morn
ing and much routine work was dis
posed of. More than an hour was
consumed in going over the expenses
of the county and checking the bills
for the month. A bill was received
from William Fisher for some trees
which had been cut on his property
by mistake, and action on which was
deferred until a later date.
Though some time was consumed in
the discussion of the bill from James
NJ. Johnson for services rendered as
expert witness in the Blount Con-
struction Company case against the
county, no definite action was taken.
and the matter went over until the
next meeting.
The board considered the case of
Ira Bell, convicted of carrying con-
cealed weapons, and it was decided to
recommend him for a pardon before
the board of pardons, as there ap-
pears to be some doubt as to his
guilt, and the regularity of his ar
rest and conviction.

TIGER" OF FRENCH POLITICS
 IS STILL A DOCTOR

PARIS, Aug. 30, lBy MaiD-M Georges Clemcnccau. the "Tiger" of the French political world, has not forgotten that he is or was a doctor of medicine. He is, indeed, the son of a doctor, and during his three years life in the United States he married Miss Mary Hummer, the daughter of a physician of Springfield, Mass.
 M. Clemenceau is at present taking the cure at Vichy. He used to go to Carlsbad before the war. A few days ago a soldier on leave was injured when his bicycle collapsed as he was riding into Vichy. The former pre- mier happened to arrive on the scene in few moments. M. Clemenceau bandaged the mans damages, did cv- crything possible to aid him, and took the injured man in his ear to a Vichy hospital
