FALSE DEPORTS
ABOUT HEALTH
OF CAMP LEWIS
CAMP LEWIS. Tacoma., Wash., Feb.
27.—Weekly reports prepared by Capt.
H. R. Mount, M. R. C* acting dlvis/bn
sanitary inspector, show the camp to
be in exceptional physical condition.
Summarizing conditions as compared
with other National army cantonments
in the United States last week, the
report said:
‘‘The last report from the surgeon
general’s office shows that Camp
•Lewis is below the average for ail
camps in incidence in disease and
non-effective rate."
"There have been no cases of cere
bro-spinal meningitis, epidemic form,
during the week,” continues the sum
mary. "There is a slight increase in
the number of measles reported. All
other communicable diseases, with the
exception of diphtheria dnd German
measles, are few er in number than last
week."
The total number of communicable
diseases reported during the past week
were: Measles, 10; German measles,
7; lobar pneumonia, 4; broncho pneu
monia, 2; scarlet fever, 9; mumps, 47;
diphtheria, 9; deaths, 2. One death
was suicidal and one was due to cereb
* i uutc.
I
1 Since Camp Lewis began receiving
I r^ruits, five mqnths ago, thersaj&aiBe
j been but 52 deaths from all causes.
, During that period more than 50,000
I men have reported here for military
training. At present the mean
strength of the division is 31,132, the
decrease being due to the transfer
ring of men to other divisions from
time to time. Compared with com
munities of equal population, these
figures show a death rate far below
normal.
Five months devoted tn intense
training along military lines, includ
ing physical exercise and the outdoor
life, regular hours for rest and plenty
of simple, wholesome food, have
proved of the utmost benefit to the
men physically, mentally and mor
ally, according to medical officers.
Investigation by military authori
ties has revealed that unfavorable re
ports. based on extensive quarantin
ing to prevent the spread of mumps,
measles and other communicable dis
eases, are directly traceable to Ger
man propaganda, by which it is sought,
to weaken the morale of the ci\ ilian
population. Propagandists for the
kaiser also are credited with spread
ing rumors that the men lacked ade
quate food and clothing, and that regi
mental exchanges were selling knitted
articles sent by the Red Cross. As a
matter of fact, practically every organ
ization in the Ninety-first division is
equipped with these knitted wristlets,
mufflers and sweaers and socks, in
addition to the regular army equip
ment.
Winter sports were introduced into
the curriculum at Camp il/ewis when
the first snowfall <rf the reason ocf
curred. Several tfcousajod men, espe
cially those from central a*nd lower
California, who had never seen a real’
snowstorm before, were awakened by
the bugle* at reveille on the morning
of February 1 and found the ground
covered with enow several Inches deep.
Snowballing and similar pastimes en
gaged the spare momenta of the tnen,
and many were the battles which
raged during the day.
Warmly clad in their heavy clothing
and knitted woollen sweater* and mit
tens. the drilling and fatigue dutiee
continued as usual, the men thor
oughly enjoying the cold snap More
vim was noticeable, due posalhly to
the low temperature, than la usually
in evidence, even during recreation
hours.
