The increase in the number Of in.
sane veterans, with a proportionate
decrease in tuberculosis and other dis.
abilities, has caused an inSistant need
for further facilities for the men
whose reason was shattered by the
rigors Of war.
Construction of the IS00-bed insti-
tuition at Northport, Long Island. is
now considerably ahead of the sched-
ule and as soon as this is completed
it is expected that there will be relief
of the crowded conditions at St. Eli
zabeth's Hospital here, as many of the
veterans now confined at the local in
stitution will be transferred to Long
Island. However, the steady rise on
the insane curve is expected to compel
the Veterans Bureau to continue the
use of the 1,000.bed hospital in the
Bronx, New York, which 1t had hoped
would be abandoned with the compile
ton of the plant at Northport.
The work on the hospital outside
of Boston, at Bedford, is also ahead Of
schedule which is expected to soon re-
lieve the crowded conditions in the
New England States and will allow
the transfer from st. Elizabeth's Of all
former service men whose homes are
in the vicinity Of 1ston.
The last Congress failed to finally
act upon the favorable report on the

ROYALTY Gets
WEDDING Gifts
Naples Will See Brilliant
Ceremony Saturday.

BIZ United Press
NAPLES, Nov. 4.-Thousands of
wedding presents, from jewels
given by kings and queens to the
simple gifts of humblest peasants,
were arranged at the royal palace
today in preparation for the we'd
ding Saturday of the Duke of Pug
lie, nephew of King Victor En-
manuel, and Princess Anne of
Bourbon.
A magnificent rope of pearls
with a diamond clasp is the gift
of the city of Naples to the bride,
the daughter of the Due de GuiSe,
claimant of the French throne.
King Alfonso of Spain, who ar
rived yesterday for the wedding, is
spending his time sightseeing. Ac-
companied by Crown Prince Hum
bert, the brides cousin, he en-
barked on the destroyer Francesca
Nullo and made an inspection of
warships in the Naples district.
In the party were the Duke of
Genoa, the Duke of Pistoia, Under
secretary of Foreign Affairs Diro
Grandi and members of the Nea-
politan ariStocraSy.
Tomorrow's wedding, to be the
most brilliant affair since the war,
will be solemnized by Cardinal
AscaleSi, Archbishop of Naples, at
the Church of st. Francis de Paul.
Streets are gay with flags and
bunting. Preparations are being
made to control huge crowds along
the streets through which the we'd
ding procession will pass, as well as
in San Ferdinonda Square, where
a grand stand for two hundred
thousand people has been erected.

PREDICTS END
OF DISEASE IN
NEXT so YEARS
Leader Thinks Surgery Will
Make Undreamed of
Advances.

BIZ United Press
CHICAGO, Nov. 4. - Virtual
elimination of numerous infectious
and contagious diseases which have
caused the death Of millions and
improvement of surgical methods to
repair the damage man suffers from
the machines he has created will be
developments of medicine within
fifty years, according to DR.. Gus
tavus M. Blech of Chicago.
DR.. Blech, a leader in the work
of the American College of Physical
Therapy. he was asked by the
United Press to visualize the status
of his profession in 1877 in the light
of present accomplishments.
Fifty years." he said, lis small
space of time, but it is enough for
America to overcome its youthful
ness and for old and staid Europe
to overcome not only the World War,
but the next war, which shall have
been fought long before the period
we have in mind.
Eradicate Many Diseases
Medicine by that time will have
continued to sacrifice the interests
of it's followers by creating Situa-
tons which will make individual
services of healers needed less and
less. Just as we have virtually
eradicated smallpox, typhoid fever,
typhus, pest and yellow fever by n.y.
gienic measures and by vaccination
and inocuIgtion, so will pneumonia,
scarlet fever, measles and other in
fectious and contagious diseases be-
come of historic interest only.
1.-THE constant struggle against
tuberculosis will have gained great
Roadway, partly by medical advance
and partly by legislative measures,
which will lay the foundation for
future race free from the taints of
heredity. Eugenics will develop as a
preventive measure which will keep
many hospital beds empty.
Sanely Nourished Race
ITO this must be added the de-
velopment of comparatively new
science, dietetics. which will make a
more sanely nourished race, also
Sturdier race"
Increased study Of the internal
glands of the body will be a prin-
cipal development of internal medi-
cine, DR.. Blech believes. This de-
velopment, he forecasts, also will
eliminate certain fields of surgery.
"Goiter, chronic inflamations.
surgical tuberculosis, blood poison
ing and similar affections will be
treated successfully by organic
products and antitoxins," he ex-
planned.
Advances in Surgery
ION the other hand, surgery will
have made great advances in
remedying the results of injuries.
Just as the increase of machinery
in industrial life demands an in
creasing toll of victims, so will the
art Of surgery improve to render in
dividual aid.
'This field will be given tremen-
dous impetus by next year. Feats
of surgery undreamed of in 1917 and
1918 will be performed at the front
and at reconstruction hospitals"
DR.. Blech predicts that the strug-
gle with cancer will still be I'M
solved in 1871
