Spanish
Influenza
Causes cancelline Of Draft
Orders.

Washington, Sept. &c. - Be
cause of tho epidemic of Span
sh influenza in army camps,
Provost Marshall neral
Crowder tonight cancelled calls
for the entrainment between
October 7 and II, OF 142 200
draft registrants.
During the day, twenty -four
hours ending at noon today,
6,l39 new cases of influenza in
army camps had been reported
to the Office Of the surgeon
general of the army. One hun
bred and seventy deaths, result
ing chiefly from pneumonia
following influenza and 1928 new
cases of pneumonia also were
reported.
Two camps, Kcarney, Cali
fornin, and Eustis, Va, were
added today to the list of those
where influenza has made its
appearance, leaving only thirt.
cen camps free from tho disease.
The total number Of cases of
influenza in all camps was
placed Mt 35,l46, with 3,O36 cas-
es of pneumonia. One out of
every four men at Camp Dew
ems, Mass, has constructed in
tluenza, it was announced and
ten per cent of the cases have
developed into pneumonia.
In cancelIing the call for tho
entrainment of the draft regis.
trants early next month, Gen
eral Crowder acted upon in,
structions from General March
chief of staff. Every State and
the District of Columbia had
been assigned quotas and the
men were to have gone to prac-
tically all of the camps in the
country. The men probably
will not be entrained until af.
ter the influenza epidemic has
been checked.
