PRESIDENTS
STATEMENT

Industry plays as essential and hon
orable role in this great struggle
as do our military armaments. We
all recognize the truth of this, but we
must also see its necessary inplica-
tions-namely, that industry, doing a
vital task for the Nation, must re-
ceive the support and assistance of
the Nation"
Therefore, I soiemnly
urge an employers engaged in war
work to refrain after August 1st,
1918, from recruiting unskilled labor
in any manner except through this
central agency 1.-THE U. S. Employ
ment Service]. l urge labor to re-
spond as loyalty ds heretofore to any
calls issued by this agency for volun-
tary enlistment in essential industry.
And I ask them both alike to remem-
Der that no sacrifice will have been IN
vain, if We are able to prove beyond
all question that the highest and best
form of efficiency is the spontaneous
cooperation Of ! free people"

Division. A East Twenty 'rd Street
The Home Service Section has out

established in Grand Central Palace,

the seventh floor is utilized.
To avoid misunderstanding concern
ing the acceptability Of nurses for war
service, who have relatives in the amy
or navy, the following statement was
issued yesterday by the Nursing Blu
reau of the Atlantic Division Of the
Red Cross:
"a nurse enlisted in the military ser
vice Of the United States can go abroad
whether she has near relative in the
foreign service or not The fact is
that nurses engaged in special service
for the Red Cross and other women
not under direct military control are
the only ones forbidden to cross to the
other side because of the presence
thore OF male relatives serving IN the
army or navy.
The Nursing Bureau has learned
that many nurses who are anxious to
serve with the Army Nurse Corps have
not made application for enrolment
through the Department Of Nursing Of
.ne Red Cross because of the prevailing
idea they are barred from service be-
cause they have brothers or other rela-
tives serving in France.
"Thc Red Cross wishes to make clear
that all of these nurses are eligible
tor enrolment and to serve abroad in
the Army Nurse Corps"

DR.. Brown Files
Second Reply to
Copeland Charges
Points to Results Obtained
Through Delegation
of Authority

DR.. Lucius P. Brown, who is under
suspension from duty as director of the
Bureau of Food and Drugs of the city
Health Department, yesterday filed
with Health Commissioner Royal S.
Copeland, a supplemental answer to
the charges against him. DR.. Brown
mentions that the only preferred charge
upon which Commissioner Copeland
was not satisfied with the original an
swer was that of excessive delega-
ton of authority by DR.. Brown to an
assistant director and division chiefs.
Of this the suspended director says
that his distribution of duties was the
result of policy he considered neces-
sary for the improvement of his bu-
reau and that it produced the desired
result.
GAS to the general observations Of
Commissioner Copeland DR.. Young
continues, upon the function of an
trative details to his alter ego and his
alterns, there could not, I think, be a
greater cleavage of view than between
my conception of executive effective
ness and the view implied, rather than
expressed, by Commissioner Copeland.
II doubt if he could formulate, or, if he
did formulate. could secure the accept
ance by competent executives them selves
of the theory Of the managing head of
an extensive force which he appears
to imagine should have been adopted
and practiced by me. do not believe
he could put it into practice himself
for any length Of time, or that ne
could. by it's adoption, bring out one
tithe of the possibilities Of himself
or his subordnates.
If, upon all the uncontradicted anc
contradictable proof submitted upor
this hearing, the Board of Health car
discover in any form of my distribu
tion of duties or delegation of au
thorty anything else than conformit.
with deliberate policy which
adopted as best calculated to obtair
the results of which COMMISSIONS
Copeland declared himself proud, ant
which I openly announced and applied
without the slightest audible disap
proval by any Of my successive officia
sureriors, l am at loss to imagine
upon what ground it can do so.
