Those boys feel that they are not being used to their fullest capacity. It may be that a part of that is inevitable. it may be that because there are so many taken into the service the officers cannot sort them. cannot put them where thev should be. and a certain amount of that will always be. we concede. but it does seem as though when a man has practically completed a course in medicine. dentistry. surgery. or engineering. chemical engineering. for instance. the Government should use him in some other capacity than as a private in the ranks of the fighting men. One thing that is disturbing many of us is this: While our own boys are being taken out of thecolleges by the thousands. here were some 800.000 refugees brought in since the beginning of the war. some 6.000 doctors who have no authority to practice here but who. nevertheless. are attempting to practice here. What some of us would like to know is whether that is going to continue. whether our American citizens. our young men. are all to be sent abroad. and in their place to take care of our people. to administer to them in sickness. we are to have refugees from other countries. who do not understand our ways. our methods of treatment. The same thing runs on down through to the farms. Now the gentleman from Texas thio morning was talking about the labor situation.
