New Ulm review. (New Ulm, Brown County, Minn.) 1892-1961, 1918-01-30
accumulate and must be paid six months


after the war. The exemption from
suits and taxations Of soldiers as passed
by the last assembly, known as the
Moratorium law says Havner, simply
suspends the operation of the present
law until six months after man is
killed or his service ended. It would
be better for him to pay his interest
while in service if possible, but he cannot
be compelled to pay it.
Taking Photographs While Flying.
Patrons of moving picture shows
haye been thrilled by the exhibition of
airmen taking photographs of the de-
lenses of the enemy while flying high
above them. Men for this purpose are
being given rudimentary instruction
here, Sergeant Roland G. Groom, Of
Des MONIES, member Of Company A.,
313th Signal Battalion, is one Of the
first men to be assigned to this sec
ton. Private Leslie George, of the
And Infantry, has also been assigned
to this section. Only civilians who
have already applied at Camp Dodge
for examination for commissions in the
aviation section of the signal corps will
be examined here. In the future ap-
plications of civilians will not be re-
ceived. Major C. L. Eastman, division
signal officer, and member of the ex-
aiming board, has received instructions
from Washington to examine only
Eighty eighth Division officers and en-
listed men for the aviation section.
Another Building to be Constructed.
Notwithstanding the investment of
100000 there is a fair prospect for
the investment of a half-million more
before all requirements are met. The
enlargement Of the base hospital will
require the expenditure of $15O,O0O.
Other buildings are needed. Author
ization for the construction of build
ing to house the combined statistical,
personnel and insurance departments
has been received. Nearly fifty off
GERS and men are on duty in the three
departments. The building will be 20
x 40 feet, two stories high and will be
erected just south Of the division head
quarters. Work will commence as soon
as weather, conditions permit.
After North Dakotans.
Brig. Gen. R. N. Getty has appointed
special board of medical officers to
visit local boards at Fargo, Wahpeton,
Edgely, jamestown, Bismarck, Dick
inson, Bowman, Grand Forks, Devils
Lake, Minot, Williston, New Rockford
and other North Dakota points and in
struct them as to the Interpretation OF
draft rules. Many North Dakota men
have been rejected because of careless
ness or ignorance on the part OF the local
boards, and it is hoped to clear up this
difficulty. e.. ~ = :
To Vaccinate Camp Civilians.
Civilians who work at Camp Dodge
are to be given smallpox vaccination
and the para-typhoid serum. Any who
refuse to submit to such treatment
will probably be barred from the camp.
Medical officers in this manner will
seek to eliminate danger of civilians
bringing diseases to camp, and if exposed
at the cantonment, to alleviate danger
Of spreading any such sickness.
Horse Hospitals Are Provided.
The horses at the remount station
have just as good care as if they were
human. Infrmaries are provided and
capable veterinarians assign animals to
these if there is any evidence of colds,
influenza, pink-eye, and other disorders.
A separate barn acts as a detention
hospital in case of contagious diseases.
Regular blacksmith shops are maintained
and competent men in khaki do the
shoeing stunt in expert fashion.
Priest Says Moral Conditions Are
Excellent.
That the morals at Camp Dodge are
good and that the boys of the 88th di-
vision are all better men than when
they went there, is the opinion Of the
Rev. Father P. N. McDermott, former
priest in charge of the Massena Cath
olic church and now a chaplain in
charge of K. C. work at the camps. He
says: 'sThe Y. M. G. A. is doing a
wonderful work, as are the Lutheran
Brotherhood and the Hebrew association
We are all one big family there and We
work together for the good Of the camp
and the men. The boys are all contented
and happy Nv.
