Or. MARTIN TALKS
TO PHYSICIANS
OF ARMY SERVICE
Member Of General Medical
Board Speaks to Missouri
Valley Medical
Society.

Dr.. Franklin Martin, member of
the advisory commission of the
Council OF National Defense and
chairman of the councils general
medical board of Washington. was
in Omaha Thursday evening TO adj
dress the Medical Society of the
Missouri Valley.
DR.. Martin spoke on work of the
volunteer medical service corps.
"We are listing the doctors of the
country through the volunteer med
ical service corps. Ten days ago
we sent out 10000 applications.
When | left Washington to come
here, we had heard from 100000 This
service is voluntary, enabling US to
act as clearing house in deter
mining what doctors should be
taken for active service.
THE doctors, as a class, arc the
most patriotic in this country, If
the man-power of America had vol
unteered as did the medical men, we
would have had an army of 100000
men at the start"
Casts No Reflection.
DR.. Martin made it plain there
was no reflection upon medical men
who stay at home. During the eve
ming he gave out statement signed
by Edward P. Davis, president of
the volunteer medical service
corps, and himself urging against
any movement that would threaten
to impair a medical mans local,
state or national standing because
he refused to enroll in the army or
navy or the volunteer medical serv-
ice corps.
The statement also advised that
the volunteer medical service corps
had as its purpose providing the
needs of civil communities and in
situations and that medical men who
serve in this capacity are helping to
win the war as much as those who
are fighting on the front.
DIR. Martin emphasized the i'm
portance of the everyday speech of
the individual He said: "Woe be-
tide the prattler who is privileged
to raise his voice at this time when
the great searchlights of history
will have been turned on these few
super years of all the centuries"

HOW DEMOCRATS
GET CAMPAIGN CASH

ious finish and during the recon-
struction period which will follow"
The foregoing is truly gem in
the face of the, fact that democrats
everywhere admit that republicans
in congress have been more unani-
mously behind the president than
have the members OF his own party.
This is proven by the fact that at
the time Senator Hitchcock arose in
the senate and criticized the admin
istration that a democratic senator
in answering the Nebraska man said,
1--WE have got to admit that the re-
publican minority in this congress
have been more unanimously back of
the president in what he has wanted
to carry on this war than have the
members Of our own party in this
congress"
Mr.. Jamieson's letter, besides hav-
ing a tragic tone to some extent
goes into comedy when he says that
if democrats and patriots get to-
gether it will not be a very great
hardship on anyone"
L this an admission on the part
of the democratic national treasurer
that he thinks democrats are not
patriots!

Hun Press Bewails
American Rejection
OF Peace Proposal

Copenhagen, Sept. l9.-The Ger
man press generally regards the
American answer to the Austrian
peace note, taken in connection
with the speech of Foreign Secre-
tary Balfour, as final proof that the
allies seek the destruction of the
central powers, their peoples and
the dismemberment of their terri
tory.
The Berlin Vorwaerts (socialist)
bitterly declares that the American
answer and the utterances of Sec
rotary Balfour compel the conclu-
ton that the entente will not con-
slider peace by agreement. There
is but one thing left for us-victory
or destruction says the Deutsche
Tages Zeitung.
