AN ATLANTIC PORT, Oct. 29,-
Mai. Gen. Merritt w. Ireland, head OF
the medical department OF the Ameri-
can expeditionary forces in France,
who recently was relieved In order to
succeed Mai. Gen. William G. Gorgas
as surgeon-general OF the United States
army, arrived here Monday on a Brit
ish ship. He was accompanied by
Brig. Gen. ]. r. Kean, his deputy. Both

Maiden. Ireland. who accompanied
Gen. pershing to France, declared that
the standard Of the medical care given
the American soldiers was the highest
In the world. Including the wounded,
he said, only as men In 1000 are III,
and OF these only 2 per cent among
that the men in the trenches suffered
little from these diseases.
Notwithstanding the heavy fighting
in which the Americans have been en-
gagged, the general said, the medical
force has been able to handle all cases
requiring its attentions, and when he
left France the hospitals still had va
cant beds in reserve. This he attrib-
uted to the fact hat the personnel
of the medical corps comprises the
best surgeons and physicians Of Amer
lea, among whom are Brig. Gen. J. NJ.
7. Flnney, of Johns Hopkins, chief
consulting surgeon, Brig. Gen. w. S.

Of Boston, o%rthopedic surgeon; Col. r.

tute, head of the department Of med
teal diseases, and many other experts.
The work Of the medical corps, said
Gen, Ireland, is very materially aided
by the morale Of the men themselves.

Not a man, he declared, Is aetuated

cities, 1t is reported that, following the
"clamping Of the lid" on these two
cities, there has been a general exodus
Of ONE of the street and that many
Of these have come to Memphis.
The committee proposes to work in
conjunction with federal and city au-
thorities in keeping the streets cleared
Of immoral women and in closing any
disorderly houses that still may be
running in Memphis.
