WARNS U s. MUST
CONTROL DOCTORS
Civilian Population Otherwise
VIII Suffer, Says DR..
GOldwater.
CLINICS ALREADY CLOSING
Suggests Military Surgeons
Devote Surplus Time to
General Population.

II Is the opinion Of DR.. s. s. Gold
water. chairman of the War Service
Committee OF the American Hospital
Association. that the operation of the
extended draft now under consideration
by Congress should be made the occa-
sion for Government control OF physi-
clans and surgeons.
Discussing the subject yesterday he
pointed out that the enlarged army.
when II is brought into being, will re-
qulre the services OF more than half of
the doctors OF the country and that un-
less measures are taken to make the
services Of thoee not attached to the
army available for the civilian popula-
tion on a basis OF distribution. there
will be communities entirely without
medical help.
Half the Doctors Gone Already.
THE anticipated conditions OF war;
said DR.. Goldwater. will restrict s5 per
cent. OF the people Of the country to
number Of physicians to which they al
ways have been accustomed. The need
Of Governmental control OF the situation
Is obvious.
'In England and France until such
measures were taken conditions were
simply chaotic. but at present II the
Director General OF National Service de-
cided that such a step was necessary
arrangements could be made for the
transfer OF physicians from district "a
district until such practitioners as were
not In military service were distributed
eQutably over the country.
THE shortage Of physicians and nurses
is already felt ksenly In hospitals
throughout the country and has affected
particularly the dispensaries and free
clinics. TIE hospital staffs have don.
what they could to meet the situation
devote part of their time to hospta
work. In this city alone many institu
lions have had to close down some Of
their departments and curtail the worl
OF others"

Men Accused of Selling Stores

CAPTAIN MUCH PUZZLED
American Ship, Back From
Cruise, Has Anchor and
Hull Intact.

Capt Leland Hawkins Of the once
boisterous but now staidly locked fad-
kin, the ship which hove into port plum

great thirst which overlook the crew on
the Azores was breakfasting with MS
family at 314 Eighty-fourth street.

Marshal Power hove into sight and
placed him under arrest.
Marshal Power thought that Mr.. Haw-
kins as captain ought to have fairy
concise notion Of what TRANSFERRED on the
cruise the Yadkin made to the Mediter-
ranean In search OF booze. but on ar
raignment he informed Commissioner
McGoldrick that his knowledge was
slight, quite incomplete, and almost en-
tirely lacking on specific questions at
issue.
Captain in the Dark.
Capt. Hawkins denied that he was
aboard the Yadkin the nights the illu-
minated crew locked and made sortie
on the tea houses of Genoa and Gibral-
tar. taking with them ship stores owned
by the United states Shipping Board.
Under questioning Capt. Hawkins
stated that evidently some Of the ships
stores had disappeared somewhere along
the route. The Yadkin's hold did seem
rather deserted, he confessed. but he
intended to make restitution for what
ever was missing.
DESPITE his intentions, Commissioners
McGoidrick decided to hold him In $4,000
bail the same surety required OF the six
members of the crew previously ar
rested. He will be given fuller oppor-
tunity on Tuesday at the formal hearing
to tell of the cruise which has now
sobery come to an end.
Marshal Powers agents continued
their search for other members OF the

Couch is said to have admitted that
he helped remove the food and delica-
cies from the ship, but insisted, as Capt.
Hawkins had. that the supplies had been
replenished. Other members Of the crew

VAST MENACE
STILL EXISTS
ON WEST LINE

WASHINGTON. April s.-Military
experts saw in the western situation
today vast menace despite the fact
that the Tcutons' attack Is less forci-
bic.
The German offensive has no;
spent itself. said the war summary
published today. 'and owing TO the
determination placed by the enemy
TO gain some sort Of success at no
matter what cost, the situation will
continue unchanged for some time
to come.
However. the general strategic
and tactical position for the allies In
becoming more favorable"
The statement points out that the
Germans have failed in their time
schedule and have been forced TO
draw more heavily on their reserves
than they had anticipated.
The week promises, however. TO be
fraught with anxious moments for
the allies. though confident reliance
is placed on Gen. Foch's ability ulti-
mately to turn the Teuton away
from Amiens.
The expected drive against Italy
Is being checked by unfa>orable
weather. Rome cables say, out the
Austrians continue 10 bring up fresh
troops.
