If fifty thousand cripples can be restored 10 the

full crpples restored to full usefulness, that means
a worth while addition to our fighting strength
doesn't itp

DENIES NURSE
NEEDS FILLED
Richard Asks Enrolment Of
Students Continued to
Meet Demands.

Brig. Gen. Charles Richard, acting
surgeon general. while Gen. Gorgas
is in France, today emphatically de-
MED a statement said to have been
given to the press recently. to the
effect that the nursing needs Of the
army have been met.
That part of the statement which
is especially harmful gives assurance
that the nursing needs of the army
have already been met. and that 1900
nurses have been enrolled by the Red
Cross in response to the surgeon gen.
erals request for 5000 graduate
nurses by January l, 1919"
Enrolment Must Continue.
Although the Red Cross. the nurse
reserve of the army. reports n total
enrolment of more than 27.e0O nurses,
this does not represent the number
of women available for active service.
Twenty-Five thousand nurses must be
obtained before the first OF the year.
More than 1900 are now on the rolls
OF the Army Nurse Corps, leaving
1900 still to be obtaiEed. Moreover,
II is estimated that before July l. 1919,
5000 nurses will be required. Thus,
in less than a year 1900 nurses must
step forward to meet the need.
Gen. Richard feels that the mat
ter is so important. that under no con-
sideration. should a false impression
OF the army's need for nurses be al
lowed TO prevail. He cites figures to
show that the statement alleged to
have been siver out was drawn up
without a clear understanding of the
facts.
The thing the army medical depart
ment at this time most fears. is that
nurses. believing that there is no
longer an urgent need for them, will
cease enrolling 1t has been said that
there has been drop in the number
Of inquiries and enrollments in the
past few days following the publica-
tion Of the statement mentioned
above.
Seek January Needs.
In response to the request for ., 900
by January l. 1919 the Red Cross has
supplied 1412O who have been assigned
TO duty as reserve nurses, Army
Nurse Corps. and 200 have entered
the Army Nurse Corps direct. A con-
unued effort must be made by the
Red Cross. to enroll nurses II the
number needed by January is to be
secured.
1T is estimated" the general con-
tinued. that a nursing force of 5O.GvJ
viii be required by July /. 1919. The
Army School of Nursing will in some
measure help to meet this need but
II Is not expected to have any appre-
ciable effect on the nursing situation
during the present year"

Coed feeling between the Allies and

the last five or six weeks.
The general feeling six weeks ago

racy, according to a cabled report
from the American Federation OF La
Dor mission to England, received here.
british labor agrees with Ameri-
can labor regarding the aims cited by
President Wilson," the cable stated.
What is more important is that the
movement in Great Britain for a con-
ference of Allied and German workers
has almost disappeared. Even Arthur
Henderson. labor leader, has declared
his unwillingness to negotiate with
the Germans.
Solidarity against the enemy
hordes," the report stated, as the
new note of British labor. 1t is as
sured this solidarity will continue un-
til Prussian autocracy is defeated and
the people Of the whole world, in
Guiding the workers of the Central
empires, are freed from despotism.
The Prussian autocrat, IL he is wise,
will fear the new solidarity Of Allied
labor as much as an overwhelming
armed force in the trenches"

"Will you listen to me?" he asked

600 to 100000 More Men VIII
Be Available.

Washington, April 27.--The Senate
resolution for the registration for
military service OF Young men who
have reached the age of 81 years
since June 5 last, had been adopted
by the house. The measure now goes
TO conference.
An amendment offered by Repre-
sentative Hull of Iowa and adopted
119 to 81, provides that men regis
tered under the bin shall be placed
at the bottom OF the classes to which
they may be assigned.
NEEDLES Not Exempt.
the house sustained the military
committee in striking out a provision
OF the bill as it passed the senate
which would exempt from registration
those eligibies who have entered med
ical or divinity schools since June 5
last.
Representative Kahn of California:
ranking Republican on the military
committee, told the house the pro-
posed new registration would place
from 500, 900 to 700. 900 new registrants
available for military service. In
that connection he recalled that Ger,
many recently called into service its
class OF 1919, consisting of approx
mately $4,000 men.
Dent Opposes Amendment.
Chairman Dent of the military com
mittee. opposed the amendment of
Mr.. Hull. He said he understood it
is the plan OF the war department
% place the newly registered at the
bottom of the respective classes un-
less something unforeseen occurs to
prevent. but did not believe It prop
er to tie the hands of the department
by an amendment which would re
quire that action.
I. Mr.. Kahn also opposed the amend
ment and declared there are thou
sands OF young men now under p
vino volunteered at the beginning OF
the war and who now are serving in
France.

All Leaves Of Absence for Land

CLAIMS TROUBLE OVER
Statement Asserting That Differences
Have Been Adjusted Is Given
Out BY Berlin Minister
At The Hague.

The Hague, April 27.-All leaves
Of absence of the Holland land and
sea forces have been cancelled by the
commandments.
Referring to the tension between
Holland and Germany, the Rotterdam
correspondent of the Daily Telegraph
says he understands the Dutch gov
eminent already has taken prelimin-
airy steps t bring into force certain
military measures.
German Claim Settlement.
London, April 27.-The German
minister At The Hague, according to
a dispatch from Amsterdam, made a
statement TO the effect that the diff
ferences beween Holland and Ger
many were practically settled.
At the Dutch foreign office no con-
firmation Of the statement could be
obtained.
Uruguay DisIikes Berlin Reply.
Montevideo, Uruguay, April 27.-It
is rumored here that the German re-
ply to Uruguay's inquiry as to
whether the German government con-
sidered that a state of war existed
between Uruguay and Germany is an
unsatisfactory one. 1t is expected an
official statement on this subject will
be issued tonight.
U-Soat Episode Brought Query.
Washington, April 27.-Uruguay's
inquiry to Germany asking whether
Berlin considered a state of wal ex-
lists between the two countries was
caused by the action of a German
submarine commander, who recently
stopped a Spanish steamer and took
off the Uruguayan commission to
France.
The submarine finally permitted the
commission TO proceed, but the act
so aroused the Uruguayan govern
ment that a sharp inquiry was sent
to Berlin.
An unsatisfactory reply, which it
is indicated Berlin has made, is con-
sidered as strengthening the proba-
bilities that Uruguay may soon enter
the val as recently forecast from
London.
