GREAT NEED REPORTED
FOR WELL-TRAINED NURSES
Council of Defense Opposes Short
Courses or Any Makeshfft Likely
TO Result I'm Harm.

The Virginia Council OF Defense re-
ceived a communication yesterday from
the Council Of National Defense. Wash
!ngton. IN reference to cooperation in
meeting the nursing problems which
have arisen because OF the war. It
is pointed out hy the national council
hat the state councils can help In
two directioas-frst. on the positive
side. by encouraging hospitals to in
crease facilities for the thorough train
ing of nurses and by stimulating wo-
men 10 take advantage OF these: sec
ond. on the negative side. by discour-
aging niakeshitt schemes likely to re-
suit IN harm. The second Of these
lines is regarded to be as important
as the first: the two can scarcely be
separated, and can be best carried on
together.
The national committee on nurcing
points out that the fully trained nurse
is the crucial factor in Americas war
time nursing program. Only fully
present by the surGeons-General for
military service. Such nurses must
also continue to meet the serious needs
of the civilian population.
It is urged that strenuous efforts
must be made now to insure 4 con-
tinuous and increased supply Of thor
oughly trained nurses in the future.
This requires that hospitals which pos
sess sufficient clinical material TO give
competent Instruction shall be encCur-
aged to increase their facilities for
the thorough training of nurses: that
young women, especially those with
the advantage of good education. shall
be encouraged to enter regular hos.
pital training courses. in order TO
Insure the maximum use of training
facilities. The establishment OF spe-
cial short-term courses in nursing in
hospitals is at present deemed mad
risab:e. and the State Council OF De-
fcnse is asked to discourage It.
The recommendations and SugCes-
tons of tho national council will 5e
taken up Immediately by the Wom-
ans Committee of National Defense.
