There was many a rousing out

might not have been understood

not one understood his lines. they

almost be said that he ID good

adds that he is too tired to think

fewer and fewer cases of tuberculosis
In 1922 we had 1900; now we have
$500.
$50, too, the surgical and general
medical cases, including, Of course,
shot and shell injuries sustained in
the war, have been decreasing. We
had 10000 in 1922. Now there are
only 6,700.
"But in another direction the gov
ernment's obligation is increasing
There has been steady, upward
trend in the number of veteran pa
tients with mental and nervous afflic-
tions. In 1919 there were less than
5000 such patients, including those
who bore the so-called invisible scars
of war;; the shell-shOcked veterans.
Now there are 1900. Our medical
experts estimate that the peak of such
cases will not be reached until 1947,
when, with the veterans at an aver
age age of fifty-three, there probably
will be between 10000 and $4,000 suf-
fering from nervous and mental dis
orders. We may have to provide hos

fortunate veterans"

also to that ''lonelier company" Of
those "who still are crucified."
