 The resolution on the subject was as follows:
 Whereas, the war has proven public health nursing to be as truly a national service as is that of the nurse on mili- tary duty.
 Whereas in the near future more than 20000 nurses will be released from military duty, many of whom have sig nified their desire to enter the field ot public health nursing.
 Be it resolved, that the council does hereby urge it's state sections on public health to raise at least three scholarships in each state within the next six months. for public health nurse teachers and eX- ecutives, and that they cooperate as tar as possible with the national organiza- ton for public health nursing in the es- tablishment of suitable postgraduate schools as soon as qualified teachers and executives are available, and in the fur thering of appropriate state legislation looking toward the extension of public health nursing in accordance with ac- cepted standards"

They have stood unswervingly
through the long fight for Presid dent
Wilson'S program for ratification
that would not require the treaty's re-
submission TO the other powers. But
IL is for the President himself TO de-
eide finally whether any reservations
adopted do require such rcSubmission,
and his illness has left the adm nistra-
tion leaders somewhat in the dark.
There have been intimations that
should reservations unacceptable TO
the administration be put into the rati-
fication resolution, the administration
forces would vote no on the ratifi-
cation roll call. but their leaders are
not ready to say how they will cross
that bridge until they come to It. 1t
would take only thirty-three votes to
prevent ratification.
Threatens to Apply Whip.
In his statement tonight Senator
Lodge declared opponents OF reserva-
tions would be responsible for any
further delay in Senate action, tndi-
eating that the whip would be applied
to hold down debate. Quick action
also is a slogan Of the administration
forces, but how far the leaders of
the two parties go in stemming
the tide of talk is very uncertain
Their hope is to get started tomorrow
on the last OF the committee amend
ments. proposing equalization of vot-
Ing power in the league of nations
and TO dispose OF them within day
