House Mission
Is Encouraged by
News From Italy
Lloyd George Entertains
ENJOYS at His Residence
in Downing Street

LONDON, Nov. 21.-Premier Lloyd
George entertained the American War
Mission at luncheon this afternoon at
his official residence. 10 Downing
Street. Colonel f. NJ. House, head of
the mission. did not attend. Instead
Colonel House had Lord Robert Cecil,
Minister Of Blockade, and Sir Eric
Drummond, private secretary to For
cign Secretary Balfour, at luncheon
with him at Chesterfield House. Colo
mel House then called upon the Pre-
mier and conferred with him for an
hour.
Colonel Houses callers to-day in
cluded Admiral William S. Benson, U.
S. n, and the Italian Ambassador. The
latter informed Colonel House OF the
latest developments in Italy, which
were said to be more hopeful, leading
to an optimistic view.
The Anglo-Americsn War Confer
ence yesterday in Downing Street is
featured by the morning newspapers
and is commented upon as an event OF
the highest importance. Much is said
CT the picturesque historical side OF
the meeting, which occurred in the
same room where the errors were
made that drove the American Colo
MES to separate from the motherland,
but the practical aspects are gwen
equal emphasis
While Premier Lloyd Georges state
ment on the needs Of the Allies receives
attention, the point also is made that 1t
is necessary for the Allies to remember
that the United States is not in the war
solely or mainly for their benefit. Thus.
the "Post" says:
Americans know as well as we that
they are in the war to protect them
selves from a danger which seriously
menaced them. They are business men,
over here strictly on business"
"The United States did not join the
belligerents to save France or help
Great Britain" says the Daily Ex
press" "She is fighting the Germany Of
Kaiser William for exactly the same
reason that she fought the England Of
Lord North. Her individual and national
freedom is at stake"

DR.. Charles N.Dowd
Named Medical Aid
For Draft in State
Roosevelt Hospital Surgeon
Appointed by Wilson
With Rank of Major

DR.. Charles North Dowd, of Roose-
Welt Hospital, has been named medical
aid for this state to head the physi-
clans who will assist in the carrying on
of the forthcoming draft it was learned
yesterday. Appointed by President
Wilson, DIR. Dowd received the rank of
major in the Medical Reserve Corps.
One medical aid has been appointed
for each state.
According to Provost Marshal Cen
eral Crowder's regulations for the ad-
ditional calls for the National Army,
registrants will be able to appeal ques-
tions of physical disability to medical
advisory boards, which will be organ
lied in every locality. Dr.. Dowd, who
has just returned from Washington,
has begun to lay plans for forming the
medical boards in New York State.
Medical Divisions Discussed
The problem of dividing the state
into medical districts was discussed
last night at a conference at the Acad-
envy of Medicine in this city. Dr.
Dowd, DR.. Robert A. Dickinson, as
sistant chief of the medical section Of
the Council of National Defence, and
Drs. E. Z. Hicks, George L. Doty, j. S.
Waterman, H. T. Raden and J. E. Shut
feworth, representing the district
board in this city, participated in the
preliminary work of organization. IL
is believed there will be about five
medical advisory boards in New York
City. The boards will begin to sit on
January 1 next, according to the pres
ent plans.
Dr. Dowd will give practically all Of
his time to his new work. He is a
graduate OF Williams College, having
received his A. b. in 1879, and studied
medicine at the College of Physicians
and Surgeons in this city, receiving
his diploma in 1885. He also studied
medicine ir Heidelberg and London
He was born in New Britain, Conn,
ffty-nine years ago. DR.. Dowd has
been in Roosevelt Hospital since 1914.
The main purpose of the organiza-
ton of medical advisory boards. as set
forth yesterday afternoon in a brief
lecture by DR.. Dickinson. is to elimi-
nate the necessity of rejecting selected
men for physical reasons after they
have been sent TO training camps. I'm
der the old system, DR.. Dickinson said,
from 2 to 9 per cent of men in the
first draft we're found unfit for service
after they had reached camp.
