Needed-NurSeSi

Lillian D. Wald, in the World Outlook.
 Out of my settlement experiences, ex- tending over 8 period of 9 years, with those community problems which have kept alert the minds and hearts of sim liar groups all over the United States, the conviction has been impressed upon me that the most important single factor is the nurse who goes into the homes. The people send for her; they want her-she is not imposed upon them unasked; they are more ready to listen to her counsel.
 Any large community would benefit by the expenditure of million dollars where there is we'll established visiting nurse service, and particularly where the service co-ordnates it's work with that of a standard college or university and makes it possible to give the hospital students and graduates clinical experience theory and laboratory work for the purpose of specializing the work of the trained nurse All public health programmes are de- pendent upon the nurses for their execu- tion. In this their work carries out the fundamental principle of the settlement tbat education and opportunity should be extended to reach the individuals of every neghborhood. Much of this depends upon the teaching ability of this most modern nurse.
 The work of the public health nurse is not yet we'll known. Their service is practically unseen and unadvertised, like many other neighborhood services, and
 therefore has not brought out the larg gifts commensurate with it's needs an its capacity.

come, and when the sonorous bell booms forth it's signal note every other bell in Moscow breaks the penetrating silence and with an ecstacy of music proclaims the Risen Lord!
 "He is Risen! He is Risen"' is the universal note on every hand and friend greets friend. and even stranger greets stranger, with a fraternal em- brace and a kiss of Christian brother hood
 This service of rejoicing in the churches is continued for many hours and is followed by the blessing of the Easter cakes leach one being adorned with lighted candle) that are found in long rows outside the cathedral walls. so the legend goes.
 All through the day is exchanged the greeting!
 Christ is Risenr' very like the cus- tom of Christmas greetings with us erent answer by saying: 'In very Truth He is,'
 And then three kisses are exchanged the lips touching alternately the right and the left cheek.
 As in southern lands the Easter day is bright with flowers, sosin northern lands Easter day is bright with lights, but the spirit of rejoicing is one the world over. Easter is the season when men think and say with deep conviction: . Christ is Risen! and the heart makes reverent answer: "In very Truth He is!"

formed by Edwin P. Adams when he was leading in the promotion of great Ameri- can electrical and water power indus tries.
 When New Years Day dawns in 1920 the probabilities are that there will have been arranged with the American bankers credits aggregating perhaps $400o00,00o, of which avail will be made by private in- terests in other lands and by municipal ities which stand in great need of as- sistance of this kiPd. And if several hundred million dollars in the form of credits are arranged for within the next eight months then it is probable that in the year 1920 as much mere in the way of American credits will be furnished to private interests in other ds which will seek aid in the United @t.tes. If only ships in sufficient amount can be pro- yided with which to carry the commodi- ties that Europe wants to buy in the United States to the European countries we are likely to see such a movement of
 international trade as a few years ago W ould have been deemed incredible.

BANKERS PREPARE
 FOR DAYS OF PEACE
Pv HOLLAND


 New York. April S-(Special) )-Amert- can bankers are not waiting for govern- ment action or in any way depending upon it while preparing for the PrlVate financing which is to bio of unparalleled magnitude as soon as peace comes. For our bankers are preparing 10 join ln such cooperative undertaking not by means of syndicates perhaps, but by general CO., operation as to furnish the flnanelal as sistance which our allies will need, and possibly by and by, Germany may need in order to eliminate the marks of the war, to rebuild industries, to establish and increase public utilities and prop ably to aid the farmers. The first hlnt of such purpose came from Vice President Arnold of a leading banlt of Chicago He visited Europe as soon as 1t was possipie for him to sail after the armlstlce was signed, in the hope that he might gam from actual inspection and study of con ditions some idea of what was needed IT. the way of assistance to Europe so that her industries, her public utilities and her railroads may be well rerestabl1shed. When Mir Arnold returned he spjoke Of the opportunity which the Amerlcai- bankers will have of giving first aid in the establishment of public utilities and also in the marketing Of securlues issued by munlclpallueS. Iie p0iieF Oe. thnt when peace is established by ratified treaty the American bankers VIII be ap- preached from the other side of the ocear for financial aid and he believed, further more, that arrangements could be made which would niake it safe to give sucf' aid, not only safe, but also of great Hd- vantage to the United States.
 Fred I. Kent vice president or the Bankers Trust went even farther thah Mir. Arnold. It has already been reported 1 in this column that MT. Kent estimates an international trade balance in iaFoH of the United States every year for per haps 10 years, of billion dollars. what that means for American export trade ie is not necessary to set forth lie also is of the opinion that American bankers will be called upon to provide credlt or funds aggregating each year for mum Der of years at least $900, ,000,Ooo, possibly more.

 It was Easter which Pope Leo I called "the day alone great" while others have alluded to it as "the festi- val of festivals" and "the happiest of days,' because it is that day of the year which brings more closely to hu- man hearts than any other the blessed reality of immortal life; immortal life not only for the individual, but for all those most near and dear to them; it Is the significance of Easter day that lifts the heart above the shadows of the earth of the< everlasting light of a radiant and perfect existence in the hereafter.

WHAT BANKERS PROPOSE DOING

Apparently MT Arnold and MT. Kent spoke the thought that has been m the minds of American bankers since the ar mistice w1s signed. Only few days ago leaders in the banking life of the larger cities met in New York, almost 1n1orfnai- ly, for the purpose of talking over the situation SO that some agreement may be reached respecting the best way 10 handle it. It must have been easy to reach an agreement, although perhaps a tentative and informal one. For 1t IS now announced that American bankers are speedily to establish an organization in which cooperation will have tuil play and which will be so utilized as to pro- ! vide credit for those who purpose buying commodities in the United States.
 NOT A GOVERNMENTAL ACT This is to be in no means a govern mental act There was time when the government at Washington dld not looh with favor upon transactions or thls kind. One very important one in which China was interested was brought to an end through the action of Secretary Of Estate some years ago. NOW the govern rent will make no objections and propa- l ably will be glad if great cooperation 1 among the American bankers for this pur- pose is secured
 | The transactions are to be exclusively |
 France. Italy and Scandinavian countries l and the American bankers. Not many hours will pass after treaty of peace IS
 signed before negotiations for credits in
 the United States will be continued and | probably perfected.
 | There are some technical details which are not of special interest to laymen which must be worked out before nego- ltiations can be completed. It may be said. however, that it is probable that I the organization will work chiefly upon
 the financial principle which is represent ! ed by the $50 ,O00, 600 credit which was re- gently given to group of Belgian banks so that Belgium could buy raw materia
 and other needed commodities in the
