Excerpt from Rehabilitation of the Wounded Rehabilitation of soldiers necessarily includes the replacement in civilian life of the uninjured men who will return after the war from service, on shore and afloat, as fast as the ships of the world can carry them. But the term rehabilitation should be used in a broader sense; rehabilitation includes not only sailors and soldiers but the whole community. It is so, for Our sailors and soldiers are citizens. Since they are citizens, their rehabilitation 1s a matter of such wide extent that it can leave no phase of social organization untouched. In Great Britain, a Department of Reconstruction with wide connections and wide powers exists to study questions such as these. In Canada, the same thing is done by a committee of the Cabinet.

Excerpt from The Redemption of the Disabled: A Study of Programmes of Rehabilitation for the Disabled of War and of Industry Out of the Great War have grown some permanent benefits to humanity, and among these perhaps the greatest is the prospect of emancipation for the physically disabled individual from thralldom of unhappy circumstance. Prodigal as was the expenditure of men, even through the very squandering of man power itself, the fighting nations came to realize the value of the individual and the strength each individual, though disqualified for direct military service, could con tribute to the common cause and aim. Gradually there dawned a different and more enlightened con ception, based not solely upon the use that could be made of remaining assets of strength or skill left to the injured man, but upon justice to the man himself and to his dependents. This new and revolutionizing conception the United States has been first among the nations to apply in all its broadest significance. The United States has initiated a comprehensive pro gramme for the benefit of and in justice to all its dis abled citizens, whether injured upon the firing line in battle or in civil employment contributing to the general community welfare.

Excerpt from Surgical Treatment of Wounded Men at Advanced Units: An Outline What an opportunity! What a necessity for each equipping himself as best he can so that he may give of his best to those who deserve it more than ever men did! In so far as we fail to accommodate ourselves to these unavoidable conditions or neglect opportunities of acquiring for ourselves or impart ing to others the special knowledge which will help our wounded men and fail to put that knowledge into practice, so far do we fail in duty to our country. These papers represent, in a modest way, a desire to help. They form a plain unvarnished statement of what a varied experience of three years leads me to think are the best methods of treating the wounded man from a professional point of view. Administration is not dealt with although adminis tration cannot be dissociated. Any attempt to divorce administrative from professional work is fraught with great danger to the success of our calling. If the administrator neglects the advice of his clinical brother his faulty administration may result, during a big battle, in the loss of literally hundreds of lives and of limbs which would other wise have been saved.
