Women nurses will be substituted for
men at the soldiers home hospital. The
board, at its quarterly meeting ytster-
day, decided to adopt, in part, the recon-
mendation of the last state department
encampment C. A. R.. which urged that
women be engaged for the work. Surgeon
o. S. Pine was instructed to make chang
es at such time as he may deem expedi-
ent There are at present eight men en-
gagged as nurses at the hospital Several
years ago change to women nurses was
adopted by the board, but at that time it
did not prove a success. The present
board believes, however, that women are
more suited for work of this kind than
men, and will experiment again The
board furthermore believes that the
change can hardly be for the worse
when the mOrtuary record Of the institu-
ton is taken into consideration. Since
August, 1889, up to date, there have /. en-
thtrty-four deaths, and there are now
fifty patients in the hospital. During the
past winter the average number of sick
soldiers in the hospital was over sixty.
The reports of the various officers show
ed the institution to be in excellent shape
The annual appropriation was $40, 600, anI
this with funds received from other
sources, made the amount available on
May / $62 1928. The expenditures amount

WASHINGTON, May 15.-The attention
of Secretary Gage was today called to a
dispatch from Chicago to the effect that
non-union men would be employed on the
Chicago postofiice building, and that the
government would be depended upon to
protect them. The secretary said that
the government had a contract with John

building, and that it was for him to de-
eide as to the means and methods he
would employ in executing his contrac t.
No one, the secretary said, had any right
to assume that the government would
take any hand in controversy between
Mr.. Pierce and the labor unions if such
controversy should arise.
