All on Active Duty.
These nurses are all women and are all
on active duty; ,44S of them are Regular
Army nurses, which means that they
have been enrolled directly from civilian
life.in to the Army Nurse Corps; the other
1916 are reserve nurses or nurses who
were nominated by the Red Cross to the
Surgeon Generals office for enrolment in
the Army Nurse Corps.
On December 81. 1917 there were 4,067
curses, regular and reserve, in the Army
Nurse Corps
On December 81. 1917. there were 1907
nurses, regular and reserve in the Army
strength added to the corps between
January I and May of this year When
war was declared. the strength Of the
corps was 373
"a, 600 Needed by January I, 1919.
On the basis of the present size of the
United States Army, the Surgeon Cen
erals office computes that at least "a. 600
nurses will be needed lin service by jan
lary l. 1919. The rate of increase since
January / last, If continued throughout
this year, will furnish only q. 33S nurses.
The prospective deficit may be partially
met by plan for nurses aides-women
have special training fitting them to re-
Iieve nurses of many of the simpler tasks
involved in caring for the sick and
wounded in hospitals
Increase of Ratio.
1t is estimated by the Surgeon Cen
erals office that, even for the present
size of the army, the rate of enrolment
into the Army Nurse Corps should be in
creased and large additional needs viii
result from the large increase in the size
of the American Army which is being
planned. These needs can not yet be
definitely computed.
