PremurituI Health Bill
Goes to RuhIund Today

Health Officer George c. Rutland
is expected to have before him to-
day revised bill requiring pre-
martial blood tests in the District.
Health Department officials
worked yesterday over the measure
but just what it's provisions will be
was not disclosed. 1t is thought
likely that the bill will approve tests
made by other than public health
laboratories provided the laborator-
les have an approved rating.
The measure may be submitted to
the Commissioners for consideration
today. Previous proposals along
this line have not been acted on by
Congress, 1t was stated. A bill re-
quiring such tests has also been pro-
posed by the Board of Trade.

Recruiting Station
Sets New Record
For Enlistments
133 Accepted for Army
At District Office
During September

A record for enlistments during
peacetime was reported by the Army
recruiting station here today. The
station accepted 1873 for Army serv-
ice during the month ended yes
terday.
The September mark was 80 more
than the August enlistment total
and A more than July.
Sergt. N. w. Morgan of the local
station, at 631 Pennsylvania avenue
NV. asserted that not more than
so of September's 1873 recruits were
residents of the District. A ma
jority came from nearby Maryland
and Virginia territory included in
this enlistment area.
All local enlistments up to the time
draft quotas are assigned will be
credited in the total of District resi-
dents in the Army, Navy and Marine
Corps. an Army official said today.
A recent unofficial estimate of the
first quota for the District of Co.
lumbia was 1,648, with 313 given as
the number likely to be in the first
call.
Office Is Crowded.
Offices of the District station were
crowded this morning. Sergt
Morgan said that his 10-man station
has about all the work it can handle.
September's 1873 recruits were
selected from 1874 applicants. At
least 20 would-be soldiers were
turned down because of age require
ments, and one was rejected because
of her sex.
"A woman telephoned," Sergt.
Morgan related. "She said she was
IS and In excellent health. She
wanted to become Uncle Sans first
woman soldier. I told her the Army
couldn't enlist women and she got
pretty mad. I suggested that she
try the Red Cross or some agency
that takes woman workers. She
said that wouldn't do-she wanted
to be soldier or nothing"
Several Over Age Limit.
Several of the applicants were
far over the 35-year maximum age
limit, the sergeant said. One was a
69-year-old ex-soldier who thought
his service might give an exemp-
ton in his case.
Forty-f1ve married men attempted
to enter the service despite the re-
striction against married men.
Some of them argued that their
wives would be glad to have them
enlist, but we had to tell them that
didn't make any difference" Sergt.
Morgan added.
Five hundred and si8ty-nine of
the applicants were colored. They
we're told that there is no quota un-
der which colored men can be en-
listed at present.
Most of the 43 persons rejected
because of physical defects had
either bad teeth or bad feet, accord
ing to Sergt. Morgan.
