'CONSCRIPT DOCTORS
National Guardsmen and the new
draft army are going to have plenty
Of medical and dental service.
Army plans call for corps of IL. 900
doctors and 2,287 dentists by July l,
1941, who will be summoned from
the Medical and Dental Reserve as
the expansion of the army pro-
gressen.
At present the army has 1,196
physicians on active duty and ex-
poets % add another 2,7OO from the
mobilized National Guard. The re-
manning 8,4O0 will be secured from
the Reserve Corps, the draft and
volunteers. Dental vacancies will
be fiIled the same way.
The 1000 nurses needed for the
Nursing Corps will be obtained chief
~ through Red Cross registers. The
nurses have warrant officer status
and receive $50 month. plus board,
room and laundry. They cannot
marry while in the service.
Animal medicine also will not be
neglected, with 1,143 veterinarians
to be added to horse-drawn units.
Tha army is strict about its med
tcal and dental qualifications accept
ing only graduates Of Class A col
leges. Under a bill introduced by
Rep. John Mccormack of Massachu-
sets. the army would be required
to give commissions to graduates of
Class B schools, but this is being
opposed vigorously.
There are only two such schools in
the U. S.: The Middlesex college
at Middlesex, Mass, and the Chi
cago Medical school. Their gradu-
ates can practice only in Massa-
chusetts and Illinois and the army
refuses to admit them as physicians.
1t applies the same rule to chiro-
practors, osteopaths, naturopaths,
neuropaths. and podiatrists.
The overall medical ratio of the
army Is: For every 10000 men a
1,000-bed hospital; with each 1000
bed unit manned by 70 doctors, 120
nurses and 500 non-commissioned
officers.

BALKAN MESS

Diplomatic dispatches from the
Balkans indicate that Russia is not
having very good time in her deal
ings with the Axis.
The Russians are worried over the
troops rushed by Hitler and Musso-
lini across her southern border in
Rumania. The Axis has taken over
the Rumanian military system COM
pletely and even plans to conscript
RumanitIh troops.
This &Angefas O. surprise to Mos
cow which asked Berlin about it.
This was the answer:
!. Nazi troops are needed in Ru-
mania, first to protect the oil fields,
since oil is all-important to Ger
many.
2. Italian and German troops may
want to invade Turkey later in the
year, and they want $4,000 men who
could be rushed Immediately from
Rumania to Istanbul and the Straits.
The Nazis also explained that they
were not taking any chances with
Stains troops, because after Hitler
had agreed to Russia having Bes-
sarabia, Russia also seized Buko-
vina without even consulting anyone.
Therefore, the Germans say they
will station their own troops near
the Russian boundary to see that
this does not happen again.
The Nazis also explained that the
Bulgarian and Hungarian armies
still were itching for more territory,

tect the sovereignty Of these small
