AMERICAN-BORN
ARE OF HIGHEST
PHYSICAL CLASS
Draft Reports Show Interest
ing Figures Concerning Fit
ness Of American Men.
fBv Associated P-es.,

nv Associated F-eSSD
WASHINGTON, March 10.-Vital
statistics made available to the gov
eminent as result of the selectiye
draft processes, especially from the
scientific physical examination OF g.
20S,446 men, will be the means of
saving hundred times as many lives
as were lost in the war, in the opinion
of Major General Enoch Crowder, pro-
vost marshal general.
While no attempt has been made as
yet to study the information derived
from the physical examination Of reg
istrants local board of Division No.
129. in New York City, has made an
suspicious start through the careful
indexing of the results obtained in 600
cases, with the view of turning these
over to medical authorities for an
alysis. Already the figures seem to
indicate clearly that foreign-born reg
istrants were of lower physical stand
ard than native born.
OF every 100 men called for service
under the draft examining officials
found 2.76 per cent were suffering
from defects which could be rene,
died entirely if the applicants SUBJ
mitted to a short and simple course.
The original plan of the draft authori-
ties-to induct these men and have
their defects corrected at army hos
pitals-was dropped because of the
lack OF facilities, but government Of
ficials have not abandoned entirely ths
idea of federal assistance in this re-
construction work under some future
social betterment program.
Deterioration After q
Registrars who possessed physical
defects of such degree as to prevent
them from rendering military service
of any kind totaled 521 ,606, and con-
stituted 1925 per cent of the total ex-
amined. These included organic dis
eases of internal organs, marked Wis
ual or aural defects, mental diseases
and deficiencies, muscular paralysis,
disffguring and disablying deformities
and, lastly, physical underdevelop-
ment
Study Of this class, it is believed,
would show basic causes capable Of
being eliminated from future genera
tons through social hygiene cam
paigns, competent medical supervi-
sion and advice and physical exercise,
scientifically prescribed.
Comparison of the age groups CT
registrants is said to have indicated
material deterioration in the average
American soon after he reaches his
majority. OF every 100 men 81 years
old who were examined 1859 We're
found physically fit, while in the 81
30-year class only 69.17 were thus
classified; while only small increase
was noted in the remedials, the dis
qualified group rose from 81 to 1888
per 100.
Analysis Of the figures and percent
ages of men rejected on account of
deficient mentality and because OF
mental and nervous disorders afforded
interesting data. Most of the southern
states showed high figures for the men,
tally deficient-probably. it was ex-
planned. because of the large negro
population. Vermont was the onlv
northern state in the first 10 states in
this respect. On the other hand, meI-
tai and nervous disorders were far
more prevalent in the northern states.

American ambassador in 1916 before

SCORES RUSSIAN
BOLSHEVIKI

WASHINGTON, March s.-The boil
sheViki government in Russia has put
itself outside the pale of civilization
and should be ostracized by the rest
OF the world. David Francis, Ameri-
can ambassador to Russia, told the
senate investigating committee. They
oont merit recognition. he said I'VE
should not even have business rela-
tions with them. They are killing
everybody that wears "A white color or
is educated. They hold women hos
tages to compile the men to serve in
the bolshevist army. They broughc
starvation to the country.
In my opinion the bolshevlki do not
represent more than 10 precent OF
the Russian people. They are losing
strength every day.
Francis told the committee he be-
heved Lenine was German agent
from the beginning. He stated Kerns,
key made a fatal mistake when he
dill not imprison Lenine and Trot- |
sky and try them FOR treason. He sai0 I
the Kernskey government tried to keept

RECOMMENDED

WASHINGTON, March s.-The
government will hold an army OF
509,909 men until congress provides
otherwise, General March today an
nounced. He declared the United
States could not get along with a
small army. This is the strength the
war department asked in the military
bill which failed to pass congress.
Total battle casualties during the
war were 240,197, March announced.
He stated thaat PershIng has been
to start enlistments.
March explained that the war de-
rartment hopes the resumption of en-
listments will provide the specified
strength. In the event they don't he
added, the department will have to
determine what troops will be held to
supply the deficiency.
