FOR IDENTIFYING FIGHTING MEN Washington, D. C, March 19 Fre quent mention has been made of the identification discs adopted by Uncle Sam for his soldiers and sailors, but the advantages offered by the system are not generally known to the pub lie. On one side of the disc is en graved the man's name, .with the date of his birth -and enlistment.. On the other side is an etched finger-print from the index finger of the wearer. the duplicate of the print being filed at the War or Navy , departments Of course, there might be two men with Identically the same name, with the dates of birth-and enlistment the same, but any difficulty arising from so remote a coincidence will be got over by the ginger-print, it is, how the invention mainly scores. This is Monel metal, silver white in color and consisting of nickel with a mix ture of iron and copper. After being subiected to a certain process the Inetal cannbt corode or perish by fire If the wearer's body was 'entirely consumed by fire, and no trace were left of him, his identification disc if found, would be undamaged, even the finger-print. . 95 , 901-2 . 89 8 . 531-2 124 . 39 1$8 152 109 7-8 Cotton 658.
