CRAVE CRISIS FACES THE
NATION UNLESS $4,000
NURSES ARE ENROLLED

Secretary of War Baker, Secretary
Of the Navy Daniels and Surgeon Cen
oral Gorgas, of the United States
army, have issued appeals to the Red
Cross workers of the southwestern di-
vision for the immediate recruiting OF
225 trained nurses for service in the
hospitals in France. Enroll
ment figures in the southwestern d.
Vision indicate the quota of 2,025 will
rot be reached unless an extra effort
5 made by Red Cross workers who
have been asked to urge the nurses
70 enroll. Texas has been asked to
supply G63 nurses; Kansas, 445; Mis-
sour, Ala; Oklahoma, 276; and Ark
ansas, 227.
In addition to the plea for the en-
rollmen of nurses the three officials
have asked that young women I'M
mediately enter training schools so as
to prepare to take the places Of those
called into active service abroad. The
reports of the training schools on the
number of applicants have not been
completed.
Daniels in his appeal says that the
future of the United States depends
on the enrolling of nurses. He asks
the American people to stop at no
sacrifice necessary to fill the military
hospitals with trained nurses.
Gorgas in sending out the country
wide appeal for $4,000 nurses said the
army and navy have grown so rapid!
and the burden placed upon the Amer
lean army in France has become SC
great, that unless the necessary num-
Der of nurses are recruited the coun'
try will face a grave crisis.
Baker announced today that to pre-
vent the over-burdening Of the civilian
population at the conclusion OF thS
war by throwing upon them the care
of cripples, the womanhOod Of Amer
lea should answer this call immed
lately and by their care of wounded
men in the hospitals nurse them bacS
to health and strength.
