NOTICE TO NURSES.

Nurses are again requested to fill out questionnaires forwarded recently by the Pacific Division of the Ameri- can Red Cross and to return same without delay to the local Red Cross Chapter. This nursing survey was requested by the United States Gov ernment and to date, but 1750 ques- tionnaires out of the total of 3O,O00 issued by the Division, have been re- turned to the Red Cross.
 It is imperative that thees ques- tionnaires be in the hands of the Pacific Division in San Francisco, within two weeks. These question naires are to be filled in by graduate nurses, practical nurses, pupil nurses, undergraduate nurses, mid-wives and those who have taken the Red Cross course in dietetics, Home Care of the Sick and First Aid.
 This national survey of nurses is merely to determine the nursing re- sources of the country and must not be taken as compulsory enrolment either for service at home or abroad, nCr has the survey any connection with the present epidemic of Spanish Influenza. Uncle Sam merely wants to know the entire nursing resources of the country both male and female.

MILLION DOLLARS APPROPRIATED FOR
 FARM SURVEYS
COMMITTEE ON PUBLIC LANDS IN THE SENATE HAS UNANI- MOUSLY REPORTED BILL TO PROVIDE HOMES FOR RETURN ING SOLDIERS AND WAR WORK FRS.

Washington, Oct. 21.-The Commit tee on Public Lands of the Senate has unanimously reported in favor of a bill appropriating a million dollars to make surveys of farms for returning soldiers In it's report the committee says the proposed legislation is for the purpose of providing an oppor- tunity to procure homes for those of our returning sailors and soldiers who may wish them upon their return from the war, as well as giving like opportunity to thousands of workers in munitions factories and other war industries, who at the conclusion Of the war will be out of employ ment. It is intended to promote as nothing else ever has "The Back to the Land" spirit.
 It is recognized that one of the great evils of the times in our coun- try is the overcrowding and conges. tion of people in the cities, many of whom are utterly unfitted for city life and not adapted to the vacations thereof. After the war this undesir- able condition will be greatly inten- sified. Further, there will be hun dreds of thousands of young men who will have returned from service in
The copper era and Morenci leader., 1918-10-25

our army who will be out of employ ment and for whom there will be no jobs or positions. In addition there will be thousands and thousands of men and women, now employed in munition factories and other war in- dustries, which will have to close at the end of the war, who will be out of employment. Many of them will have some means which they will have saved at their employment and with which they could locate upon and improve land and engage in agri- culture, or live stock raising.
 All of the above described classes of people will be needed on the land. The land will need them and they will need the land. It should be the object of the Government and it is the object of this proposed legisla- tion to provide them with the oppor- tunity of getting on the land. Fur thermore, teh undertaking which this proposed legislation contemplates, if embarked upon by the Government, would afford employment to thous- ands of men who will be out of em- ployment at the termination of the war, when there will be clamoring for employment.
 This bill is in line with proposed legislation, suggested by the Secre- tary of the Interior, and the Commit tee believes it of great importance. The Committee further believes that it should be attended to in ample time and that no time should be lost in doing so. The war may end in another year, and if this scheme is to be embarked upon at all no time should be lost in doing so. The Con- mittee believes the proposed legisla- tion and the undertaking eontemplat- ed thereby to be of great and vital importance to the country and great and valuable economic program.
