SURGERY MAKES!
(By Associated Press)
BEHIND THE BRITISH
DINES IN FRANCE, Nov. 10
—The American doctors who
are now at work in'" various
ports of the British front find
that army surgery has advan
ced just as rapidly since the
beginning of the war as any
other branch of war’s activi
ties. In the early days of the
war, wounds were of an aver
age gravity far beyond that
expected from the experience
of previous wars, while tetan
us, gas-gangrene and severe
suppuration, were general and
hundreds died of comparative
ly trivial injury for lack of
early and adequate treatment.
This situation has now been
altered almost beyond recog
nition. Serum treatment has
almost done away with tenta
nus, while earlier and more
energetic surgical treatment
has largely defeated gangrene.
More and more of the major
surgical work is being done
in the casualty clearing sta
tions, and some of the famous
ot tin* American surgeons
have spent most of their time
since their arrival, in advanced
hospitals within tin* sound of
the Herman guns.
The key to the whole im
provement in surgical results
has been the pushing of the
surgeon nearer and nearer to
the fighting lines. The enemy
has endeavored to confer this
■ by persistent bombing of the I
advanced hospitals, but the
saving of lige is more than the
loss of life, and suitable de
fensive measures are being
taken.
I lit1 doctor, as distinguished
from tlie surgeon, lias also ac
complished wonders in this
war. rl he small mortality from
disease in the British and in
the French armies is due to his
constant vigilance. His two
great weapons have been sani
tation and prophylactic inocu
lation. Tn a scene of unparal
leled confusion and in an area
of primitive sanitation, his
exertions have resulted in an
astonishing degree of sanitary
efficiency. Refuse is destroy
ed or deeply buried; battle
fields in many cases are clean
ed up within a few (Jays; pure
water supplies are provided.
Everywhere behind the im
mediate front, order and clean
j liness are the rule.
The rule of the army med
ical officer s not always wel-l
coined by the inhabitants, but
it works with magnificent suc
cess, until camps and towns,
which in previous wars would
have been death traps, have a
mortality as low as the most
approved health resort. The
routine work of these medical
officers has probably saved
more lives than all the other
medical work of the war.
Preventive inoculation has
robbed typhoid of its terrors,
although in all previous wars
it was responsible for far more
deaths than shells and bullets. :
