Majority Are
Privately Employed

According to Miss Nutting there are
slightly over ninety-eight thousand
registered nurses in this country Ten
per cent are ineligible for one cause or
another. Twenty thousand are already
enrolled. This leaves sxty-eight
thousand nurses to draw upon. Eighty
five per cent of these are employed in
private nursing, and Miss Nutting
recommends that special attention be
devoted to the levyng of recruits
from this field.
She points to the increased number
Of students entering the training
schools of the country. According to
her more than seven thousand have
been admitted beyond the usual num-
Der entering such schools, while thir-
teen thousand nurses will be grad
uated this year. She advocates the
plan for an army school of nursing
which has been approved by the sur
geon general, the heads of the army
nurse corps, the nursing department of
the American Red Cross and the COM
mittee on nursing of the Council of
National Defence, besides having the
support of women outside Of the pro-
fession. At the all day conference on
hospital problems resulting from the
war, held under the auspices of the

The Question
OF CoIored Nurses

About two years ago New York
doctor, who was an attending physician
at Bellevue Hospital when she was su
intendent of nurses there, went to
Washington to see Miss Delano, of the
Red Cross, in behalf of the colored
nurses. At the time Miss Delano
promised that she would arrange to
the interview a colored unit was
formed, known as the Lincoln Base
Hospital Unit. About ten months after
Its establishment it was dissolved
without explanation.
Last August letter from Miss
Delano was sent to the colored nurses
asking them to enroll for service at
the proposed base hospital at Des
Moines, and to recommend a chief
nurse. The nurses enrolled and
chief nurse was suggested. No further
word was received from Washington.
In September another letter came
from Miss Delano asking for the names
of about twenty of the very best col
be forwarded to them. The names
were sent in, but there was no reply.
On May 10, 1918, prominent col
ored nurse sent telegram to Miss
Oelano and also to the surgeon gem
eral asking about the outlook for the
admission of six colored nurses to the
Red Cross. The reply from Miss De-.
lano stated that the Red Cross was
entirely willing to enroll colored
nurses, but that no accommodations
had been made by the surgeon gem
eral. The reply from the surgeon gem
eral was to the effect that there we're
no accommodations for colored nurses,
but that 1t would be advisable for them
to keep in touch with the Red Cross.
Meanwhile it is of the utmost i'm
portance that while war has opened
many new occupations to women that
had hitherto been denied them they
should realize that they can perform
patriotic service of high order by
fitting themselves to serve in a pro-
fession which has belonged par excel |
lence to women since the beginning Of !

while there is the same SHORTAGE at
rcgstries and resulting inability to
meet the needs of private cases.
That this need is not merely local.
but national, can be attested by fig
ures from other states. For example.
III March. 1918, in Washington, D. c.,
the Nurses Registry could answer
only seventythree out of q total of
32S requests for graduate nurses.
In spite of what appears to be
fact. some still maintain that the ma
tons resources are sufficient to meet
all nursing needs even after the 49,
600 women needed for war work have
been successfully taken out of the
ranks.
Miss Adelaide Nutting, director Of
the department Of nursing and health
at Teachers College and chairman of
the committee on nursing of the GenA
eral Medical Board of the Council of
National Defence, says there is no
shortage of resources, that the fail
ure to obtain nurses for private cases,
both through nurses registries and
physicians, is not due to war condi-
tions, but might be the case at any
time. Miss Nutting contends that
while resources are ample to take care
of the present nursing needs both for
war work and private cases there
might be shortage in three years if
take the regular three years. course in
nursing at the training schools are
encouraged to take the shorter courses
which at the end of few months per-
nit them to nurse the wounded"

This definite view of one phase of
the present nursing situation in New
York is expressed by the capable head
Of a training school, who further
states that with the fewest possible
exceptions the sick should now be
cared for in hospitals.
The present Red Cross drive for
nurses in response to Surgeon General
Gorgas's call for $4,000 army and navy
nurses before January /, 1919. en-
phasizes the gravity of another prob
lem-that of meeting The nursing
needs OF civilians during the war.
Already certain hospitals are feeling
the shortage in trained nurses. Miss
Henderson, of the Central Branch of
the Y. ". c. A, reports a necessity
for trained attendants to supplement-
the shortage at the Roosevelt and
Presbyterian hospitals, the HOSPITAL
for Ruptured and Crippled and other
hospitals.
