Gen. Gorgas' Recommendations.

Cen. Gergas recommended that all
men IN the camp have fifty feet of floor
space each and, that additional shelter
be supplied as may be necessary; that
no fresh men be brought into the camp
until the epidemic has subsided; that
an observation camp be established, and
that all new men be kept under obser-
walton until the main camp is free from
infection. These recommendations al
ready are being carried out. The War
Department announced that loco addi-
tional tents already had been shipped to
the camp and the number of men for
each tent reduced from nine to five.
Woolen underwear reached the camp
some time ago, and heavy outside cloth
ing is being delivered as rapidly as rail-
road congestion will permit.

FEARS EPIDEMIC OF
!. SEPTIC PNEUMONIA
Surgeon General Gorgas Re-
. ports on Conditions at
!. Camp Wheeler.
5000 CASES OF MEASLES

Surgeon General William C. Gorsas,
reporting on his investigation OF
the endemic of measles and preva-
lence of pneumonia at Camp Wheeler
Macon, Ga, declared that the number
of cases of measles was decreasing.
but expressed the fear that an cpl
demic OF septic pneumonia might be
ahead.
When Gen Gorgas made. his in
spection of the camp this week there
had been approximately 1000 cases OF
measles among the $1,000 southerners
at the camp and 500 cases or ppeu-
monia, with about sixty deaths from
the latter during the past month";
Men Wore Thin, Summer Clothing.
Gen. Gorgas reports that the tend
ency toward pneumonia undoubtedly
was increased by the men being ex-
posed TO cold weather for month IN
thin. summer clothing. About two
thirds of the $1,000 men now have been
supplied with wooden garments, ne
stated.
Gen. Gorgas believes that the measles
epidemic was due to the fact that men
at Camp Wheeler were drawn from
eparsely settled regions of the south,
where they had little opportunity TO
contract the disease when young. The
pneumonia cases followed the measles.
but the surgeon general believes most
Of these were contact cases." forecast

taken.

RED CROSS NOTES.

Fifteen thousand nurses have al
ready been enrolled by the American
Red Cross, many of whom have vol
unteered for war service, according
to a statement made public at Red
Cross Headquarters today. About
two thousand have already been sent
to- Europe. 1t is estimated that the
present registration force is sufficient
to care for an army of million and
half and approximately thousand
nurses are being added monthly.
ct is of the greatest Importance
that able and educated young women
should be urged to enter the training
schools and take the usual course in
order to fit themselves fully for nurs-
ing" said Miss Jane A. Delano, Chair
man of the National Committee on
Nursing Service "While our present
needs are being met, the burden of
the war will increase rapidly. 1t is
highly desirable that the ablest, most
experienced nurses should be releas-
ed for service behind the lines, and a
constant supply of younger nurses,
thoroughly trained, will allow these
cider women to- leave their post in
this country without danger to our
own sick"
The National Committee is also en-
rolling public health nurses with a
view to protecting them from service
as bedside nurses where their special
training would not be fully utilized.
The Red Cross requirements for
nurses have been somewhat modified
in order that, if needed, thousands of
additional nurses NAV be made eligi-
BILE for enrolling with the American
Red Cross and available for call
should the necessity arise,
The principle change contemplated
is to reduce the lower age limit for
specially qualified nurses and to re-
place on the eligible list training
schools for nurses which are ''reccm-
mended by state boards CT registra-
ton" even though the schools have
a daily average of somewhat less than
the required fifty patients.
In order to increase further the
available Supply of nurses the schools
FOR nurses giving three year course
nay be requested to advance the date
Of graduation of pupil-nurses, per-
haps to the end of their second year
of study, should the enigences CT

able.
