The President explained that most
of the dental cases can be fully re-
habilitated. The same is true, he
went on, with the venereal cases, and
men found to be suffering from these
diseases will be ordered to take the
available treatments and prepare
themselves for Army service.
In cardiac and muscular cases,
questionable men will be designated
by local draft boards, with Army ex-
aminers saying finally whether re.
habilitation should be attempted.
The Chief Executive said that 1t
Is expected that about one quarter
Of the registered hernia cases can be
corrected, but he acknowledged that
relatively few rehabilitations may be
achieved among the mental cases or
those suffering from ear, feet or luna
defects.
Several times Mr. Roosevelt en-
phasized the gravity Of this situa-
ton for the country as q whole, and
its reflection on general health con-
ditions. Actually, he went on, the
problem Is lOng-range one, with
the real objective being an improved
race OF American people rather
than merely an immediate addition
to the defense personnel.
Remarking that State and local
cooperation will be essential, Mr..
Roosevelt then pointed out that it
may be the prer0gative Of local GOV
ernment to determine why indi-
viduab are in bad health and to
direct them to take corrective meas
ures. He admitted jokingly that
under the Constitution a person has
right to die at an early age.
Asked by what authority the
Government might compel rehabill
itation treatment, the President
pointed out that men falling within

This Changing World

that the Toxic war part, which
Is quiet at present will \ in the

can merchantmen through , aters

Japan's present neutral TIL
tude is considered most elasti by
State Department obsers RS.
Japan Is cautious while thir IS
seem unfavorable to German :
but becomes voiciferous ano
exacting as soon as things appear
to turn in Germanys favor. In
spired Japanese spokesmen and
the press are again warning
about the dangers to the father
land from Great Britain and the
United States. These statements
are considered the best barometer
of storm weather ahead in the
Pacific.
According to reports here, there
is a diplomatic battle in Toxic
between the Allies and the Axis
with Japan's neutrality or inter-
vention in the war the principal
prize. German representatives,
it is said, have promised Japan
large slices of Siberia once the
resistance of the Soviets is
crushed. This promise is con-
sidered by the Japanese leaders
as a mere bonus compared with
other gains Japan may achieve
on its own initiative in the
Southern Pacific.
London Alarmed Over Reds.
The British government and
general staff is greatly alarmed
over the turn of events in Russia.
While they are not prepared to
believe that the defeat Of the
Soviets is as complete as de-
scribed by German official COM
muniques, they cannot conceal
the fact that the tragedy may
become even greater than antici-
pated last week.
The only ray Of sunshine is
that a Soviet force Is still avail
able in the Caucasus where nat
ural defenses offered by a chain
Of high mountains would make
German access to the oil fields of
Azerbaidjan difficult. 1t is be-
lieved in usually well informed
quarters that Gen. Archibald
Wavell's army in Iran and Iraq
is ready to cross the border and
90 to the rescue of the Russians
in the event Gen. Won Rund-
stedt's southern army reaches
Novorossisk and begins march,
ing toward the mountains pro-
tecting the oil fields.
The British seem to think that
If the Germans can be pre-
vented from reaching the princi-
pal sources of Oil the Reich can
not take full advantage of her
military victories.

The Great Game of Politics
Observers Profess to See in Mrs. Roosevelt Signs
Of Wage spiroIs and No Legislation Curling Strikes

her views on half a dozen different
topics, including religious freedom in
Russia and the high cost Of living.
Concerning the latter, she declared
that wages had not kept pace with
the rise in living costs and then ex-
planned that Mr.. Baruch's plan of q
ceiling over wages was not designed
to freeze wages absolutely, which is
what he himself had said. The only
possible Interpretation OF her own
remarks was that she felt wages
must go higher in order to meet
living costs. She did not, however,
point out that further rises in wages
make inevitable further elevation of
the cost of living, which, in turn,
would make necessary still another
rise in wages, and in turn again, that
would force living costs still higher.
In brief, there would be created the
vicious spiral" against which every
economist warns and which nullif1es
any rise in wages, no matter how
high.
The other happening concerning
Mrs. Roosevelt which increases belief
that no effort to stabilize wages and
thus keep prices down will be made
was announcement of the testi-
monial dinner to be given her in New
York on November 9. At this dinner
Philip Murray of the c. I. o. and
Mr.. Green of the A. F. L., both Of
whom are violently against any form
of wage regulation, will speak in
eulogy Of Mrs. Roosevelt, testifying
to the great help she has been to
the cause Of organized labor.
Theme Settled.
David Dubinsky, president OF the
International Ladies' Garment
Workers Union. declared the din
ner would not only serve as a tribute
to Mrs. Roosevelt, but also as an
opportunity for labor "to express
appreciation and to pay tribute to
our President for the gains recorded
by labor during his administration
and for his great contribution to
the cause Of all humanity" There
is not likely to be any mention at
the dinner OF the millions of man
days lost on defense work through
strikes in the past eight months.
Realistic persons no longer look
for a firm graphing with the price,
control problems. Mostly, they feel
that all that can be expected is an
Intellectual piecemeal effort by the
highly pubicized Mr.. Henderson in
which labor will be treated as
favored class. From the disastrous
result of this policy, however. labor
will by no means be exempt. OF
course. 1t is possible that Congress
may be galvanized into intelligent
action in this vital matter but, with
out presidential support, 1t seems
unlikely.

BY CONSTANTINE BROWN.

President Roosevelt's message
to Congress, asking revision of
the neutrality law to allow the
arming Of merchantmen, was
sent at the same time as the
shattering news that the German
offensive was progressing In such
\ manner that soon the Lenin-
grad-Moscow-Azov line might be
only a memory.
Washington military and Dip
lomatic quarters have been aware
Of the major German offensive
since October 3, but it was only
Tuesday that they realized its
seriousness. Hence 1t is consid-
cred possible in certain quarters
that the President delayed his
message until the first results Of
the German advance were fully
known and the Nation was aware
of the great stakes now being
played on the Eastern front.
American military quarters
warned the President confiden-
TALLY that all was not so rosy in
Russia as official reports from
Moscow indicated. Their appar-
ent official optimism regarding
the outlook In the U. s. 8. R. was
caused by a desire to dovetail
with opinions from London and
Moscow. Military analysts have
never once ceased worrying over
the possibility of a complete Rus
sian collapse when the final
putsch occurred. Pulverization
of Russian war material, espe-
cially tanks and airplanes, formed
the main basis of concern by
American military men. Re-
placements arriving at Archangel
are hardly sufficient to replace
the losses suffered by one di-
vision while the Russians need
equipment for entire armies.
Military and naval quarters are
frankly pessimistic over the
present Russian outlook. They
maintain that even If a substan-
tial number of Russian soldiers
are saved the rearming Of them
would be one Of the most diff
f1cult problems this country ever
undertook.
Japan's Attitude Vital.
The port Of Archangel will re-
main available for a few more
weeks, but if Moscow fails its
facilities will be useless. Sup
plying Russia through the Cau-
casus will be equally impossible
from Mement because the Rostov
rail junction is occupied by the
Germans.
Facilities offered by the trans
Siberian route depend exclusively
on how long Japan maintains her
present attitude.
