Women and Medicine

In Europe, years ago a woman
named Hildegarde wrote a notable
book on medicinal plants. In those
days the men were too busy both
ering about dogmas of religion
and medicine, and the study OF
herbs was thought beneath their
notice.
It was the women, however.
who mostly conducted the hospit-
ais and cared for the sick. and
thus they learned much OF great
value. They let the men fight out
the questions of theories.

FALSE NAVY
ECONOMY IS
CRITICIZED
Proposed Reduction
Tn Enlisted Men and
Officers Too Drastic
Kahn Declares.

washing LOnJ march 1I,-H ar
ing members Of congress tha
false economy is the poorest kin
of economy" Chairman Kahn o
the house military affairs com
mittee declared today during con
sideration of the army appropria
tion bill that a reduction in tn,
size of the regular army to l15.
900 enlisted men and 1000 Off
GERS, as proposed in the measure
would be altogether too drastic {
cut at this time"
The California representative
held that pay provision should BIZ
made for 5000 men and 1900
officers during the coming fiscal
year. as requested by the war de-
partment or if congress were de
termined to direct a reduction In
the interest Of economy, that the
enlisted strength should not be
decreased below 100000 men.
Unpreparedness Costly.
Lately it has seemed to be-
come popular ON the part of good
many Of the men in congress to
insist on cutting down the allow
ances for our army and navy"
Mr.. Kahn said. Economy is the
watchword of a good many legis-
k-tors. But let me call the atten-
tion of the house 70 the fact that
false economy is the poorest kind
OF economy"
Reviewing the military situa-
tlon prior to the entrance of the
United States into the world war,
the chairman asserted that "by
reason of our lack of preparedness,
we were compelled to eXpend dur
ing the 10 months we were in the
war as startling sum Of $4,000
100000"
When compared with the ex-
penditures of the American peo-
pie for pleasure or non-essential
commodities, the outlay for mill
tary purposes "sinks into compar-
ative insignificance, he added,
as he quoted variety of statis-
tics.
During the fiscal year 1921, the
house was told, when appropria-
tions of the regular army, nation
al guard and the organized re-
serves aggregated $418,000,0O0,
the public spent $S97,O0O,O0O for
admission to thcaters, concerts, |
cabarets, baseball games and 9TH
er entertainments; $1,151, ,000,0 900
for tobacco and related materials; |
$3.50, 100000 for candy and chew
ing gum; $824,00O,00O for sodas
and confections and $595, 900, 900
personal adornment.
American Costs Low.
Comparing the expenditures of
the United States during 1920-21
on its army with the sums expenu-
Ell by other nations, Mr.. Kahn
said the United States expendi-
lures totaled $343,155,3O3. or
$3,22 per capita. while those of
the British empire, exclusive of
dependencies, amounted to $685.
$4,000. or $13.25 per capita;
France S993,927,OOO or $22.52
per capita; tally $246,081,2O0 or
S6.70 per capita and Japan $780,
OS2,90O or $3.3S per capita.
These figures show that that
we are exceedingly mindful Of the
welfare Of our people in keeping
down military costs and expendi-
lures" declared the speaker.
Contrasting with other leading
powers the size OF the army In
with the population.
Mr.. Kahn said that for the year
1921 the number in the American
lrmy was 1,43 per 1000 popula-
ion while the number in Great
Britain was 7.34, France 14.47,

property is progressing in a highly
satisfactory manner and the show
ing on the 400 level is fully up to
expectations. During the week end
ing Friday, July Z, there was per
formed IS feet Of underground work.
according to the official report given
out by Joseph Mayer the superin-
tendent The west drift is being
driven through an exidized forma-
ton that shows good mineral values
and the outlook Is most promising
for a body Of commercial ore being
encountered within the near future
The heading is nearing the Tonopah
Divide formation that has been so
prolific Of results during the past
three years.
Much credit must be bestowed up
on Mr. Mayer for the persistency
with which he has prosecuted devel-
opment upon this property during
the stringency of the money mar
ket when it seemed almost impossi-
bic to raise money for meritorious
mining propositions. However. he
has faced the situation with an op-
timism that promises to repay his
efforts many times. 1t need prove
no surprise to learn at any time
that the Alto Divide has been en-
tered among the list of shippers.
