PLAN TO ESTABLISH
NURSING BUREAU

Senator Owen Of Oklahoma has
agreed to amend his bill creating a
Federal Department of Public Health.
under a Cabinet officer, to include a
bureau of health nursing. His an
nouncement follows one from Con-
gresham McDuffie OF Alabama Civ
ing the same assurance in regard to
a similar bill introduced by him.
The National Organization OF Pub
lie Health Service felt greatly elated
over this information today. as it is
a elimination OF a long crusade con-
Quoted by the association to have
nursing recognized by the Govern
ment. Miss Katherine Tucker, acting
president of the organization, believ-
ed thu amendment would be sure to
remain in the bill if it is passed.
Senator Owens oversight in not
providing for a bureau Of public
health nursing was called to his at
tention by Miss Tucker. The Okla
homa Senator wrote that he was
heartily in favor Of such a bureau"
The public health bill provides for
the appointment of a woman as the
third assistant secretary of public
health, at a salary OF $4,000.
In both bills the proposed bureau
OF nursing would be under a woman
chief, a trained nurse. According to
the recommendation OF the National
Organization for Public Health Nurs-
ing, this would stimulate and pro-
mote public health nursing and would
assist in the maintenance of high
standards of personnel and service in
this branch Of work.
