'MaIingering' in Arm,
Blamed Ian by Officers
On false Education

In an unpublished report survey
ing recent medical discharges, Army
ofacials have blamed the youth pro-
granS and policies of the last quar-
ter century for the high degree Of
nlalingering noted among inductees
in American Army training centers,
it was learned here yesterday.
While youths Of the Axis nations
have been subjected to training de-
signed to tougher them against
the rigors of war, members of the
rising generation in the United
States have been taught to believe
that the world owes them a living,
and that they have right to expect
their Government to support them
irsuxury, Army officials complained.
Knesreport, 1t was learned, was
uradSrtaken by the Army medical
officials when Congress began to
show an interest in the fact that
about 40 per cent of the draftees in
recent months have been rejected
on medical grounds, while large
numbers have been given medical
discharges after induction and dur
ing their combat training.
Steps have been taken, it was re-
ported, to diminish sharply the

to IS per cent Of all reflections and
discharges.
Many Report to Hospital.
In this connection, the report of
the Army investigators pointed out
that doctors could readily measure
and appraise the seriousness of
physical disorders, ailments and
shortcomings. but were helpless to
measure with any degree of &C
curacy or certainty the seriousness
of the neuro-psychiatric disorders
which they encounter SO frequently.
Men who are unable, unwilling, or
slow to adjust themselves to Army
life. they explained, consciously or
unconsciously develop symptoms of
illness and report for sick call. They
go to a hospital where they have
their meals brought to them and re-
ceive all kinds of care and atten-
ton, not only from the medical staff
but from the grey ladies'"
In the hospital they also have an
opportunity to talk with other pa
tents, comparing symptoms and get
ting ideas as to other complaints
they can discover at opportune mo-
ments if it appears they are about
to be sent back to the stern and
arduous routine of Army camp life.
Symptoms Develop Anew.
None Of these men is ever con-
victed of malingering, because no
doctor is prepared to state under
oath that the patient really does not

GARDENING HINTS ARE
 GIVEN HERE

With the recent announcement by the Department of Agriculture that the country faces severe food shortage this year due to labor shortages on farms and adverse weather conditions. interest in Vie tory Gardens seems to have picked up throughout Southeast Alaska generally. and according to Ted Carter, agriculture extension agent for the University of Alaska, it is up to every one of us to produce as much food as we can, and to conserve what food we have.
 Garden schools have already been conducted by Carter-n Ketchikan, Wards Cove. Metlakatla, Wrangen, Petersburg. Juneau, Sitka and Skag- way.
 In addition to these schools, many talks have been given to various clubs and organizations in an effort to get the idea moving, and active Victory Garden committees have been organized.
 Soil tests have been run for almost every type of garden soil in this area and the results show decided lack of humus and three very i'm pcrtant plant foods n phosphorus, potash and calcium-are non-exist- ent or bordering on a deficiency,
 Within a very few days the Vic tory Garden Committee in each com munity will have a bulletin for dis tribution which describes soil prep aration and soil fertility with recom- mendations for fertilizer applica- tions.
 Considerable trouble has been en- ccuntered in securing sufficient fer tilizers for Southeast Alaska, but every effort is being made to relieve this situation,
 Carter says it is impossible to lay too much stress on the necessity for proper soil preparation. This ap- plies to every gardener in Alaska. There is no amount of lime or fer tilizer that will offset poor prepara- tion of a garden plot.
 Drainage, the use of raised beds and proper soil creation are very important factors governing plant growth, especially along Alaska's coaStline.
 Sour soil, Carter says, is not due to acidity but to improper soil prep aration. Lime will counteract this condition but incorporating air into the soil will correct it. Proper drain- age, the use of raised beds and the use of sufficient humus will help give soil proper creation. In this way the plants can put out sound root growth and take advantage of the fertility program.
 Although Juneau is headquarters for the new extension service, many trips have been made and will be made by the agents to all Southeast Alaska towns.
 Local Victory Garden committees should be contacted for material on gardening.
 Carter is leaving this week for Ketchikan and will work his way back through Juneau about the mid dle of next month.
