caily all victims of shell shock should

ceased word from France shows there
are only 300 cases there requiring
treatment in this country. There are
probably about the same number en-
route home.
1t is accepted here that the drop in
the expected number Of sufferers was
due directly to the news of Germany's
surrender. The only explanation for
OF apprehension that they would
again be subjected to an ordeal that.

their bodies cut OF shape.
Serious as nave been the ravages Of
shell shock among the troops, said
Colonel Bailey. described by Surgeon
General Ireland as one of the coun-
try's leading psychiatrists, the United
States forces have not suffered to the
extent those of the other allies have.
This is due largely to the fact that 81
per cent Of the cases developing have
been cured in the field hospitals by the
prompt treatment provided.
Given Special Treatment.
The more seriously afflicted are
brought TO this country and sem to
special hospital OF 100 beds. Within
a short time after admittance most
patients ayOw they are regaining their

ton indicates that this is SO, they are

trary to tie general belief. shell shock
does not necessarily come from heavy
