As one means of remedying the physical, infirmity in which her war losses have placed France, the French Academy of Medicine has been urged to recommend that every child be taught the equal use of its two hands. An appeal is to be made to mothers to accustom children from the earliest age to use both hands, and the Minister of Education is to be asked to make the teaching of ambidexterity obligatory in all schools.
