AID FOR CAPTURED NURSES

Washington, Sept. 1S.-American
nurses captured by the enemy would
be supported during captivity by the
American Red Cross, it was an
nounced today at headquarters of the
organization here.
This decision was reached, it was
stated, after the War Department S
announcement that under the law
army nurses, if captured, could not be
paid because technically theye were
not on duty.
"The Red Cross" the statement
said, will undertake to supply to cap
tured American nurses not only food
and clothing, but necessary money tC
pay their board, if the German pris
on camp treat them as of officers rank
and require them to pay for board
and lodging or go to work, as is ex
pected of captured army officers. The
Red Cross will assume this responsi
bility until such time as the Govern
ment changes this regulation so that
under technically, captured nurses
i'll not be cut off from salary ant
maintenance"
