New Law Gets Every Physician Phy sically Fit Under Thirty Two Years. Physicians under thirty-two years of age are amenable to the draft for soldiers, according to information re ceived from the War Department at Washington. As the law now stands every physician who is pthysically fit nd under thirty-two years of age is a drafted man whether his name has been called or not. The need of young physicians in the army is imperative. Major Joseph C. Bloodgood, chairman of the South ern Committee on National Defense, says: "Every physically fit doctor thirty-two years old owes it to his country to be insjhe medical reserve corps. As a matter of fact, he is a drafted man whether his number has been called or not." Te army calls for young physicians for two reasons: they can stand the strain of army life better than older men, and, as a rule, they are not held by so many family and financial obligations. Dr. J. Wr. Long, of Greensboro, chairman -f the state committee on national detense, medical section, will upon request furnish suitable blanks for making application in the medical officers' reserve corps. North Caro lina has not yet given her quota but she ranks ahead of the average state in the number of medical men she has furnished thc army.
