Examination Of Recruits (Itondon Free Press) Disclosure at; Ottawa that. 18,829 out 0f the 200.000 men enlisted in the Canadian forces in the present war have been discharged, reflects, upon the medical men who conduct- ed. examinations o! these men, o upon orders issued by Ottawa. Either_ the physicians carried out their i orders and passed men unfit tor active service conditions tn ntodern ntachlne gun fire tom Nazi planrs new is mechanized war, thev were careless,» back and or they made mistakes 1n diagnosis.‘ Of the 18,8289, about 4,000 were let‘ go because, as Defence Mini tterl Ralston said. “they were tintlketv to become efficient. soldiers." Presum-i ably it; was other than physical de-. nciencies that necessitated this act; ion. In war in these days a hinhl type of ntctttul fitness as well as» physical health 1s a requLtte. In the case of men called for 30 days’ training the first medical tests were made by ctvlllan doctors who were paid $1 per man. In the United‘ States mllitarv draft the plan has been for civilian medical men to tindermke the tests free, bttt tltev, have had difficulties too. It takes! much time. thought and consider-i able experience for a. doctor to pass‘, on the whole physical makeup of i‘ any man. Army regulations call‘ upon the recruit to declare physical defects of which he l»; aware. A sun- erficial knowledge of the hutttnn body and mind suitzest that this can only be the preliminary to a detailed l examination. i What; has happened has caused a waste of the taxpayers’ money to the extent that; it paid for training t! unfit men and for subsequent ntcdi- - cal treatment. The remedy lies in Ottawa insisting on stricter observ- ance of its regulations by ctvlltnn i physicians examining recruits and by army medical corp: officers con- ducting armv "boards" on enlisted SEA ROAD The cliffs drop sheer along the stretch of bench, Narrow and jagged in the sprawling 59B, The ocenn rages just beyond the l l reitc Of road that: curves and winds de- liberately. shunting itself abruptly to the edge IN MONTREAL t \ men of afiairs naturally stop 3e the Windsor because of its repu. ration for dignified eomfon and unobtrusive, courteous service _ t its convenient location -— and be. cause the Windsor is recognized as the proper place for basin“, and social meetings. fllfilihtlsnr git DOMINION sang I.
