COST OF ARMY DRAFT
S4.93 FOR EACH MAN
Pennsylvania Figure Shown at
$4.33-Real Economy, Says
Crowder
By a Std0 Correspondent
WASHINGTON, Feb. 27.


The average cost of drafting the men
for the United States army under the
selectlye service law of 1917 was s493
per capita.
The cost of drafting the men in Penn
sylvania was s433 per capita; in New
Jersey. s2.77; Delaware. s19; Mary
land, s9.O2, and New York, $s.04.
During the Civil War 1t cost S34.01
to recruit each of the 1,356,593 men prior
TO the passage of the draft law and
S9S4 under the draft. This comparison
is really valueless unless the relative
purchasing power of money in 1868 is
compared with that of today. Ten dol
lars in 1868 would purchase services
which today would cost more than $50.
The States where the drafting was the
most expensive were Delaware. S19 ;
Rhode Island. s1S.O4; Vermont, s13.16
Maine, s11.1s; District of Columbia
5000. and Missouri, $3.50.
Drafting the men for the National
Army was cheapest in oklahoma, where
it cost only $1.57; North Dakota, S1.S3 ;
Louisiana, s2.71; Idaho, S2.s5; Indiana,
1856; Mississippi, $3.50; Florida. $3.75,
and Kansas, 1896.
Provost Marshal General Crowder,
who had charge of the draft, in his
report of the expense connected with 1t
says:
IN so far as We are forced to con-
slider the purely financial aspect, the
seective service system is the most
economical measure that could possibly
| have been devised for raising the Ma
| tional Army of brave men to defend the
cause of liberty and democracy against
/ the nefarious world-desgns Of n ruth
| less hostile power"

RED TAPE IlPERTLS
CAMP WHEELER'S MEN
Digging Of Ditch to Remove
Malarial Swamp Prevented
by War Department
RED CROSS TO RESCUE
Despite Fact That It Supplied Money
for Work, Situation
Remains Critical
BIZ o Stag Correspondent

WASHINGTON. Feb. ~.
War Department red tape prevented
the army from digging a ditch that
would remove n malarial swamp from
around Camp Wheeler, Ga.
Fully so per cent of the soldiers at
Camp Wheeler would suffer from ma
larfa before the end Of the summer IL
the swamp was not Immediately re-
moved. Assistant Surgeon General IL.
r. Carter. an international authority on
malaria, had stated after surveying the
camp and swamp.
To remove the swamp It was only
necessary to dig a ditch $500 feet long
from three to five feet deep at cost OF
$500. Yet the War Department could
not undertake the job because the land
was not leased or owned by the Gov
ernment.
The surgeon general had stated that
because the digging of the ditch would
incidentally improve private property
i would constitute an Illegal act for MS
department to undertake the Work.
To prevent untold sickness from ma
laria at Camp Wheeler this summer,
and to relieve the War Department from
an embarrassing predicament, the war
priated $1,000 to pay the cost Of steam
shoveling the ditch and diverting the
stream that creates the swamp sur
rounding Camp Wheeler into the Ocmul-
gee River.
Or. Taliaferro Clark, director of the
Bureau of Sanitary Service, reported
that Notwithstanding a Red Cross unit
had been actively engaged In sanitary
work about Camp Wheeler. and that
the War Council had appropriated $780,
900 for the maintenance of the unit, yet
affairs in the vicinity had reached a
critical stage.
Surveys made by the Public Health
Service demonstrated that the swampy
areas surrounding the camp were breed
ing places for large numbers of malaria
carrying mosquitoes.

Wheat conservation by the use of sub
stitute cereals is being stressed at Camp
Hancock. The first intimation of the
Twenty-eighth Division Hoover cam
paign was made public in a memoran-
dunn issued from division headquarters,
in which it was pointed out that the
divisional quartermaster had several
thousand pounds of white cornmeal on
hand for distribution to the various
units.
White cornmeal, according to the
memorandum, is as good for making
rlutfins, corn bread and the like as
yellow cornmeal and should be used
wherever possible.
SO far this is the first instance at
Camp Hancock in which conservation
has teen stressed by division head
quarters. The food orders will not ex-
tend to the meatless, porkless and fat
less stages. Instead, the Pennsylvania
soldiers get their usual food at meal.
