ANT|-TYPHO|D CHAIN
ARM0R MADE HERE
Workers Produce Vaccine in
Large Quantities for
Use by Army.

In steam-filled room on the fourth
floor of the Army Medical School. 462
Louisiana avenue. with the thermom-
eter lowering around 124 degrees,
many young men are working day
and night making chain armor,"
scientifically known as anti-typhotd
vaccine. Wearing nothing but rub
Der gloves and a kind of a belted
linen mighty, the men stand in pud-
dies Of their own perspiration, filling
pigmy TASKS with anti-typhoid vac
cine, each containing about 2,500,000
dead bacilli.
Much-Needed Kind.
For this sort of "chain armor".
every little defunct typhoid bacillus
is the very best possible link in the
mail against the live ones. That 1t
is a much-needed kind of armor Is an
old story. Once the regular name for
"army fever" In the Spanish-Ameri-
can war typhoid alone attacked one
fifth of our men and 2,744 died of 1t.
Its Boer war record was far worse
in point of deaths. And if in the
present war the same percentage of
our boys had gone down as went down
in 1898, its casualty list up to April
] would number more than 217,000.
Typhoid vaccine is exceedingly good
armor. Each man is given three sue
cessive suits or doses of it. 1t is good
for four years at a cost of about 3
cents a year a man.. There is only
one thing 1t cannot do-save the men

CROWDER PREDICTS
CALLING OF CLASS2
Otherwise Draft Age Must
Go Up, He Tells
Senators.

Indicating the rapid enlargement of
provost marshal general. yesterday
afternoon informed the Senate mill
tary affairs committee that, If the
draft age is not increased, class l of
the draft registrants would be ex-
hausted early next year. and 1t would
be necessary to begin taking men
from class 2.
Gen. Crowder told the committee
also that the American artillery pro-
gram is based on the presumption
that there will be 100000 men under
arms in the Army of the United States
by August 1. He said that approxi-
mately 100000 of these men will be
drafted men and the other million
volunteers, recruited in the National
Guard and the Regular Army under
the old volunteer system.
Whole Program Revealed.
The War Departments Army pro-
gram in all its details was revealed
to the Senate committee by Gen.
Crowder. For military reasons these
details were not made public: Mem
bers of the committee who favor
very large Army were much pleased
with the plans, they said later.
peared before the Committee on the
France bill. introduced by the sena-
''work-or-fight" order to all men be-
tween the ages Of eighteen and forty
five. Under this bill Senator France
would have all persons between eight
cen and forty-five years of age en-
rolled. and If they were not fighting
they should be employed in industries
essential to the conduct of the war.
Gen. Crowder heartily indorsed the
plan though he would fix different
age limits.
Must Adopt British Plan.
He expressed the opinion that the
United States would have to follow
Great Britain's example and place in
the non-essential employment class
many of the men who in normal times
would be considered as workers In
predicted, will have to be ignored, and
every man in the country will have
to work in an industry essential to
the conduct of the war.
1t was stated that Gen. Crowder be-
lieves strongly that the draft age
should be extended SO as to increase
the enrolment of class l men. In
this way only, he contends, will it be
possible to provide the needed men
without going to class 2 to get them.
Glass contains many married men.
The provost marshal general is op-
posed to taking men from the de-
ferred classifications until all others
have been used. -
Secretary Baker of the War De-
partment, however. does not agree as
to the need or advisability of extend
ing the draft age. Members of the
Senate committee and also other
members of Congress believe that
the plan for extending the draft ages
will. undoubtedly prevail in the end.
julius Kahn. representative from
California, predicted yesterday that
bill to extend the draft age would be
introduced in Congress. with ADMIN
istration backing. by next December.

Results Of incubation.

After they are once in chain mail
they are about as safe as humon wis
dom and science can make them.
Even including cases where a man
has come to camp with the bacillus in
cubating in HMM every hundred
thousand there must always be some
such-our deaths to date in this war
number just eight; while as vet there
has been no case whatever Of i'll ef-
feets resulting from the incubation
itself. In the French army the
monthly typhoid mortality is now
rather less than three in every mil
lion.
Though typhoid incubation had
been compulsory in the Army and
Navy since 1910, never had the gov
ernment laboratory had to furnish
shots" for more than 100000 men a
year. Now, almost in a matter of
weeks. 1t has had to furnish protec-
tion for a million.

Dear Father:
Your letter just received and was
so glad to hear from you and I was
glad to hear that you are getting
such good price for your cotton.
sure laughed when l read the letter
Mack wrote. The letter was very
good except what he said about the
shell that was dropped so near him.
You remember he said it shook the
earth for one hundred yards around.
Well, he was quite mistaken about
that for when one of those large shells
drops it shakes the earth for miles
around, A large shell just dropped
few minutes before | read your
letter. l guess it was a mile from us
and it shook the house SO hard that it
slammed the windows together.
Well, guess you see in the papers
what the American boys did in the
big drive. That was the first real bat
tie I've been in and believe me, man
didn't have to be nervous to shake
then for the big guns that were shoot
ing were shaking the earth for miles
and miles, and the Germans were run
ming so fast that all | could see was
those captured and some hung up on
barbed wire entanglements.. All the
boys are happy now. The whole bunch
got some mail today and they are Sit
ting around reading.
We slept in house last night for
the first time in several days. When
we moved in there last night l found
an iron bed all fixed up and l mean
did some sleeping, and today we are
sitting around nice fire reading and
talking about what we are going to
do when we get home.
Oh, yes, while was reading Mack's
letter lieutenant asked me if that
was Mack D. Odom and when he
found out it was l thought he would
die laughing. He is new lieutenant,
just got with us and he used to be
Mack's lieutenant. He said Mack was
some Mack. Several of our lieuten-
ants were gassed but most of them
are back with us now. The other
night there was a bunch of us Sleep
ing under some large oak trees and
we were disturbed by gas alarm, and
| had my gas mask on before l woke
up good. Then we had an awful time
getting our shoes on. We all got the
wrong shoes so we had to wait until
daylight to get them straight.

send you in my next letter if they
will let it go. want you to send me
one of those pictures of yours. Dad,
