LESS THAN 100000
Rsached $4,000 November Is;
American Armies Losses Were
Comparatively Light in War

According to an estimate, made with
official sanction in Washington, the losses
of tho American Expeditionary Forces in
the war will not exceed 100000 from all
eauscs The total gwen out on Noven-
her Is. was IS 600, including ,026 casual
ties IN the Marine Corps. Concerning the
figures reported from Washington, IL
must I've understood that the count does
not cover losses OF the heaviest fighting
ON the Nclisc rs the war was drawing to
:tn end The presumption is that CASUAL
ties IN Russia and Italy are not included,
hut they are negligible. For several days
before November II there were no returns
from the Marine Corps. According TO the
report of that date, tho total Of killed in
,,ction and dead OF wounds, excluding the
Marines was 1850, and tho wounded
were given rs I0.l9l the missing. IN
cludlng prisoners, numbered $40 disease
accounted for 5,195 more, and accident
and other causes for ,463, the lost ut sea
were b25. an item apart from campaign
casualties
I must have been on tho basis Of these
figures that an estimate uf total losses for
the war was made in response 10 re-
