kclntire Says Third
OF Doctors in Service
Will Stay in Uniform
u. S. Will Need to 'CIeun
Out Foreign Areas
After War, He Believes
Ey the Associated PrasS

By the Associated Press.
CHICAGO, Feb. 16-Rear Ad-
miral Ross T. McIntire. surgeon gen.
eral Of the Navy, predicted yesterday
that onethird of the Nations ply
sicians who go into the armed serv-
ices will not return to civilian prac-
tice after the war.
In speaking on medicine and the
war at council on medical educa-
ton and hospitals, sponsored by the
American Medical Association, Ad-
miral McIntire said I'VE might say
that when this war is over a great
number of doctors will return from
the service That is true, but not
nearly as many as you might think
for certainly we will not be able to
reduce the Army and Navy below a
certain point, and my own opinion
is that If we are able to return two
thirds of those We take we will do
we'll"
Admiral McIntire elaborated this
at press conference when he de-
clared I'VE, for our own protection
will have to send our doctors and
our health officials into foreign
areas which are the sources for
many of the epidemics affecting the
whole world"
Saw First Typhus Case.
He mentioned the Balkans and
North Africa as two areas which
particularly must be cleaned out.
Admiral McIntire said he saw his
first typhus case on his recent trip
to North Africa--"an American
sailor who got we'll, by the way" he
interjected. He said that those
who fight in Africa must be pro-
tected not only from malaria. but
from typhus, plague, all the dysen-
teries and many peculiar fevers of
unknown origin"
DR.. Ray Lyman Wilbur, president
of Stanford University and chair
man of the council, asserted in a
conference address that there is
no easy or cheap way to make a doc
tor. To run short of good doc
tors would be a calamity of the first
magnitude" but, he added, so far
we seem to have enough pre-medicai
students of quality to carry forward
this year in our medical schools "
Dr. Harold S. Diehl, Minneapolis,
Mimi, Of the War Manpower Com
mission procurement and assign
ment service for physicians, dentists
and veterinarians, said an analysis
of medical school lists of essential
teachers" for the current academic
year showed 21 per cent in Army
and Navy services, as compared with
II per cent of all physicians in the
United States.
Demand for Doctors in WAAC.
Col. George F. Lull, chief of the
sonnet Division of the Army
Medical Corps, noted demand for
women physicians in the WAAC.
These doctors are hired as con-
tract surgeons and sent to the
WAAC training center at Fort Des
Moines. Iowa" Col. Lull said. After
a period OF training they are given
commissions in the WAAC. Very
few women desire this type of work,
apparently, as less than a dozen
qualified individuals have applied"
Relocation OF civilian physicians
to supply critical areas with medical
attention is one Of the problems of
wartime medicine. said DR.. Harvey
B. Stone of Baltimore, also OF the
procurement and assignment serv-
ice. He reported that up to Febru-
ary survey Of 40 States and the
District of Columbia showed 462 re-
locations, 1926 Of them through the
procurement and assignment service.

Trivial Economy

IT is well known but regretabe fact that the pay of
officer of the United States Army, considered in
relation to his duties, his needs and his standing repre-
sents little more than bare subsistence
This is true of full general it is of the newest
shavetail
of military life, though in innumerable
means actual hardship.
NOV the comptroller general Of the army in an
order of November 30, ruling that the rental allow
unmarried officers shall be discontinued while on
field duty regardless whether quarters cannot be
supplied by their units. Furthermore field duty" is inter-
preted service with the troops inside outside the
United States.
In short, if officer finds himself serving in a camp
where no bachelor officers quarters available he
must ind his own rooms and pay for them out Of his
meager pay
In many regions Of the country this means that an
officer must put aside the greater part of his pay merely
for rent.
THIS Is neither fair nor sensible
i The comptroller generals order met with deserved
opposition from both single and married officers and it
was postponed to take effect until March, 1913.
Married officers fear that this only step toward
cancellation Of similar allowances for their families.
Single officers know that In the light. Of present living
costs their pay simply will not stretch that far.
ONCE the saving would be comparatively trivial and
~ the hardship and dissatisfaction out of all proportion
the comptroller general would do well TO rescnd his order
return 70 the previous arrangement whereby local
manders determine who shall receive allowances and
stop adding needless worries brave and patriotic
who already have the job Of winning war on their hands
If the issue rests saving OF money, there are
literally thousands of other ways in which greater
amounts be economical This is no secret TO Wash
hgton TO the army, TO the officers TO the public.

Hatred of the United States

can workers sleep.
And would communism be
easily and peacefully accom-
plished here? Or would it re-
quire force and violence, as the
law says?
1--WE can achieve II only
through a violent revolution In
which millions of our people
would perish" Gitlow wrote
after he had backslid. ain which
the most intelligent thinking
and the most socially minded
among us would be extermi-
mated. In the course of the civil
war, our economic structure
would be devastated. our indus
tries wrecked, our fields laid
waste.
"But what would be our
gains? Few are they who har-
bOr any illusions OF the sort of
democracy that prevails in Rus

able from the democracy that
Is practiced in NaZi Germany

scription of labor. Communism

not exist under communism any
more than II can exist under

nizes the rights to life, liberty

This comes not from any Fas-
cist agency but from a man who
ran for vice president of the
u. S. A. on the Communist Party

Avoid Wasting Funds

CHAIRMAN VINSON Of the Naval Affairs Committee
- Of the House Of Representatives has reported that
Investigations conducted by that committee and by the
House Military Affairs Committee, have saved to the
country more than two billion donars through
negotiated contracts
This is almost precisely the amount the federal
government expects TO collect annually by of the
new Victory
The Victory tax as know, isla per cent levy
against gross personal income authorized by the last
Congress and imposed for the first time in January of this
year.
It is withheld from wages and salaries by employers
and paid directly 10 the federal governmentwithout
the worker ever seeing 1t.
IT Is the first federal tax laid frankly against
l wages-although not the first in fact, probably
the last.
The so-caled Social Security tax is direct tax
wages, and was SUPPOSED to provide exclusively for
the payment of od-age benefits
But has gone instead into government general
funds and has used for spending and thus
has been tax wages for purposes other than those
intended.
However the Victory tax is the first direct federal
tax on wages be made without pretense suberuge.
And il Will provide the federal government with two
billion dollars of additional spending money-of
at the expense and to the deprva of the people who
earned it.
y Ut as Chairman Vinson has reported it has been
ID possible to the country the amount of
money by the recapture of money already spent which
should have BEEN spent
And Chairman Vinson broadly intimates that this
only scratches the surface Of what could be saved by the
1t certainly does no more than scratch the surface
of what could be saved by avoidance of ALL wasteu and
unnecessary expenditure by government.
Why does not the federal government concern itself
zealously with saving the country money through
economical and efficient expenditure?
Why does the federal government blithely exercise
its power to tax the people without first exploring and
exhaustng all possibilities for SAVING the people
money?
