REHABILITATION
OF MEN POSSIBLE

Boston, June 7-"Soldiers disabled
by tuberculosis should be restored to
complete usefulness just as well as
one who has had his leg shot off, said
Colonel Harry E. Mock of the Sur
geon Generals Office speaking here
today before the annual meeting OF
the National Tuberculosis Associa-
ton. THE rehabilitation of these
men," he continued, includes their
mental and physical training until
they can be re-esta 5lished as useful
members of society.
I'm retaining those in military
service who have contracted tubercu-
losis and in securing their complete
rehabilitation instead of allowing
them to lie around sanatoria doing
nothing except reading and playing
cards and becoming generally hos
pitalized, it is planned to start their
rehabilitation during this period when
their physical reconstruction is taking
place. Patients in bed or in wheel
chairs will be taught certain useful
trades or occupations. When dis
charged, if it is necessary these men
will be placed in special vocational
schools where they will either be
taught a new trade or made more
proficient in their old one. The
Surgeon General plans to keep close
supervision over every tuberculous
soldier until he is fully reclaimed.

OUR 4 DEFENSE

Our boys are defending
this country on the high seas
and on the land. Our own
defense against a common
enemy is to keep the system
clean by Kidding the body of
the toxins, or poisons, which
are bred in the intestines.
When you feel tired, sleepy,
headachy, when your breath
is offensive, or pimPles ap-
pear on the face and neck,
it is time to recognize the
danger and protect your
bodily health by taking a
good laxative or liver medi-
cine.
b The machinery of the body
heeds to be oiled, kept in
good condition, just as the
guns or machinery of a ship.
Why should a human person

more than that of his auto

selves. Their tongue has a

Insect Pests Are
Deadly to Corn

Washington, D. c., June lone of
the most destructive insect pests of
corn, known as the European corn
stalk borer, discovered in eastern
Massachusetts last summer, is spread
ing rapidly to other neighboring To-
caities, according to entomologists of
the United States Department of Ag-
riculture. The most vigorous and en-
ergetic action possible will be re-
quired on the part of farmers and
gardeners, county agents and ento
mologists. if the pest is to be eradicat-
ed or satisfactorily controlled, the
specialists declare in a statement just
issued. e
It is known that infested ears of
sweet corn were. shipped last year to
practically all the New England
states before the presence of the
worm was discovered. Corn growers
are warned to be. on the alert to dis
cover this pest in growing corn or
within the stalks of last years crop,
and gardeners are urged to watch for
it in such vegetables as tomatoes,
beans and some of the common weeds.
In the caterpillar stage this pest when
full grown is about one inch in length,
gFay ish in color and covered with nu-
merous small, round, dark-colored
specks. Persons discovering the in
sect are urged to communicate imme-
diately with the State Agricultural
ACollege or the Bureau of Entomology.

SERVICE
PAY FROM TAX

Washington, June IA bill ex-
from the income tax the pay
and emoluments of officers and enlist
ed men Of the army and navy en-
gagged in active field and sea duty has
been introduced by Representative
Hustled of New York The bill was
presented as a result of numerous
protests received from friends of the
fighting men, who argue that in risk
ing their lives they are doing all the
country should ask of them, and that
all they save is needed for the main
tenance of families or dependents in
most instances.
The bill is so drafted as not to be
applicable to army or. navy men in
the departmental service, and such
will continue to be required to pay
income taxes. It will apply to all
men in the camps and training schools
in this country who are preparing for
active duty abroad or with the battle
fleets.
The Ways and Means Committee,
to which the bill was referred, will
give a hearing to the members of
Congress who are urging its passage.
