The Schools Contribute to National Defense.
Kleinschmidt, Earl E.
Journal of School Health, v71 n8 p378-82 Oct 2001
This 1941 paper highlights the poor health of draft inductees, describing: implications of draftee rejections for school health programs; whether school children need to be "toughened" during the national emergency; legislation for national health preparedness; barriers to progress in school health (e.g., ill-prepared health educators); and school-related actions (e.g., plan for immediate and long-term objectives).
