Army Nurses.

According to estimates based
on an Army of 100000 men,
1880 nurses will be needed.
The present strength of the Army
Nurse Corps of the Medical De-
partment is about $500. To in
crease this number by nearly
1000 per cent in year is the task
faced by the corps.
Hospitals at Army camps and
cantonments still need nurses to
bring the quota for each up to
the minimum of 65 considered
necessary, although since the ur-
gent need for nurses was made
public in December nearly 1000
requests for application blanks
have been received.
In order to get the enrollments
up to the needed number some
of the requirements heretofore
imposed have been waived. Ac-
cording to estimates there are
between $4,000 and 10000 regis
tered nurses in the country and
about 100000 other graduate and
practical nurses.
