WAR CAUSING MANY
NEW DISEASES TO
APPEAR IN GERMANY

Amsterdam, Sept 26.The war has
been responsible for the development
of numerous new ailments in Ger
many, asserts Professor Albu in an
article in the Berlin Lokalanzeiger
Its effects have aggravated various
human ills.
There can be no doubt, he says,
that many people are ageing more
rapidly now owing to the worries and
difficulties of daily life. People are
growing gray sooner. The action of
heart and blood vessels suffers. Ex-
haustive observations, he believes,
point to the fact that both at home
and in the field, arteric sclerosis is
a genuine war disease. What part
chronic undertaking takes In this,
we do not know" he adds. The in
creased blood pressure on the heart
and the blood vessels entails many
dangers. Only in the years after the
war we shall be able to gauge the
full extent of this unprecedented
tension which is using up human
strength. Individual power Of resis.
tance fcourse plays great part in
organic reaction.
"The number of those who have
gone through this endless war 80 far
without any impairment OF health Is
not large, and 1t is safe to say that
when we come to the end, there will
be few indeed who can claim perfect
immunity. 1t seems to me therefore,
that II is the wrong policy for the
authorities to place so many difficult
ties in the way of people who need
rest, relaxation and a change of air
and surroundings.
"The state" Professor Albu con.
cludes, and this will apply to all
belligerent nations-needs careful
outstanding of human materials.
Public and social hygene are faced
with problems of stupendous magni-
tude. This war has killed, manned
or injured more sound stock in four
years time than in four peace dec
AIDES.
Consistent undertaking has weak
ened the system to an extraordinary
extent, especially in the matter of
infectious diseases. Nothing proves
this more conclusively than the in.
creased mortality from tuberculosis,
dysentery, etc. Burned down vii.
lagos can be built up again more
easily than human generations. The
value of the individual has risen to
a point which demands the most
careful consideration"

FOURTH LIBERTY LOAN
WILL OPEN SEPT. e
Much Depends Upon Success of
Loan, Both in This Coun-
try and Europe

The campaign for the Fourth
Liberty Loan will begin Sep
TENDER % and close Octber 70.
The result of the loan will be
watched with keen interest in
Europe, not only by our asse-
clates in the war against the
Ieutonic powers but by our
enemies. 1t will be regarded
by them as a measure of the
American peoples support of
the war.
The Germans know full we'll
the treemndous weight and sig
nlficance Of popular support of
the war, of the people at home
backing up the army in the
fleld. AS the loan succeeds,
our enemies will sorrow; as it
falls short they will rejoice.
Every dollar subscribed will
help and encourage the Ameri-
can soldiers and hurt and de-
press the enemies ef America.
The loan will be a test of
the loyalty and willingness Of
the people of the United States
to make sacrifices compared
with the willingness of our
soldiers to do their part. There
must be and will be no failure
by the people to measure up to
the courage and devotion OF
our men in Europe. Many Of
them have given up their lives;
shall we at home withhold our
money? Shall we spare our
dollars while they spare not
their lives?

a pill ever now and then, and
they put rubber in his heels,
make him hunt for his dugouts
and then make it so hot for
