Summit and Main SMITH :: Condon, Oregon MEN FROM OREGON OFFICIALLY HELD NATIONSCLEANEST Surgeon-General Blue Wires 'Fact is Disclosed in First 1,000,000 Camp Reports, Only Fifty-nine Hundredths of One Per Cent Found to Have Venereal Dis ease on Arrival at Cantonments. Surgeon-General's Official Tslegram ' Oregon Social Hygiene Society, 720 Selling Bldg.. Portland. A tabulation of one million reports first .received from camp surgeons throughout the country shows that Oregon leads the country with a rate of fifty-nine hundredths of one per cent found to have a vener- eal disease on arriving In Lcamp. It la hoped that Oregon can continue vigorous measures In combating venereal diseases during the period of demobili- satlon' and thereafter. RUPERT BLUB. . Oregon men, called to the colore during the greatest of all wars, were physically the cleanest in the entire United States Army. Such la not the mere boast of any citizen of this state, backed bnly by a high sense of local pride, but it is the established record of the United States Army, communicated to the' Oregon Social Hygiene 8ociety by Rupert Blue, "Surgeon-General, thus giving It the greatest possible weight As will be seen by perusal of the foregoing telegram from Surgeon General Blue, a tabulation of 1,000,000 ot the first reports ; raslvst from camp surgeons places Oregon in the lead with a rate ot fifty-nine hun dredths ot one per cent (which means less than alx men to the thousand), or, compared with another wire from him, thia state's standing ia but a fraction lower than 11 times ahead ot the state with the highest per cent of Infection, which waa eight and nine tenths per cent (eighty-nine men to the thousand). Thia constitutes one of the grandest and proudest records -of the whole war period and, great as haa been this state's part in all patriotic endeavors, nothing could fill the hearts of its people with a higher degree of pride than tie official acknowledgment from the National Capital that Oregon's men stood far and away above all others in clean manhood. "That the work of the Oregon So cial Hygiene Society, carried forward for but aeven years, should produce such magnificent resulte, la a subject of the most gratifying kind to the entire Board," said Executive Secre tary Cummins. "Every one of tbe men who have worked so hard to bring about the result regard this of ficial notification from the Surgeon General aa a complete vindication ot the program sought to be carried for ward in thia atate. That the public will respond to sane, clear facta, right ly presented, is also demonstrated beyond doubt Educators, who have assisted greatly in the work, may well feel that young men under their tute lage will absorb the benefit to be de rived from information along physio logical tines, lightly administered. Parent must now see plainly that their children should have the truth aa to their physical beinga and that, having thia, untold good will result" "Future generations, following, are bound to demonstrate the benefits ot Oregon's clean manhood, as aet forth officially," commented A. F. Flegel, president of the Society. "This rec ord cannot be overestimated. It ia a glorious achievement" "The full significance of the official announcement from Dr. Blue is dif ficult to grasp" said Adolphe Wolfe, treasurer of the Society. "Dealing as it does with human life and morals, it is, in a larger sense, more Important than !&anjL.cracjvemento:. pot to detract eae wbit from aay of them.
