| DANGER TO NURSES
At COUNTRY CLUB
But After Conference Between
Hygiene Workers and Health
Board Situation Remains
Static.

Mrs. Joseph Bancroft and Miss Emily
7. Bissell represented the Bureau OF
Hygiene and the nurses and aides. ap-
pearcd before the Board of Health nj
its meeting Yesterday and said that the
Homeopathic Hospital Emergency wing
could hc turned into an infrmary for
critical cases OF pneumonia, which have
been very numerous during the past
few days
The representatives of the Bureau OF
Hygiene said that the ventilation at the
Homeopathic Hospital was better than
nj the Country Club owing to the closing
IN OF the vcrandas at the latter place,
and that If In future the serious cases
were brought TO the Homeopathic Hos
pital Emergency Wing instead of the
Country Club, this change would do
away with the unnecessary danger to
which the nurses were subject while
nursing the sick. and would relieve the
pressure on the Country Club The
Homeopathic Hospital Emergency Wing
they stated is situated in a far better
position with regard TO sunshine and
ventilation. and would afford better
protection to the nurses, whom, they
said, they would not urge to 60 to the
Country Club because of the heavy
responsibility they thus took upon them
selves
The BOARD took no action in the
matter after careful consideration follow
ing a lengthy conference between the
Bureau of Hygiene Workers and Prcsi-
dent tjlcgoCd, il was concluded not to
make any change at this time, when
