2,250 Nurses Needed.

The prospect of sustained need o.
.2,250 nurses in the permanent army
establishment is seen by Surgeon
General Merritte w. Ireland, u. S. A..
Reviewing the experience of the AM
erican army in the world war, Gen.
ireland, writing in the Red Cross Mag
aZine, says: tf
IF the army is reduced to 100000
men and we make the usual allowance
for a sick list of 1-2 per cent, the
army will require in its nursing corps
.2,250 nurses in addition to the neces-
sary enlisted men. At present large
numbers of army nurses procured
through the Red Cross are being re-
lieved from service with the military
establishment. In New York and
Newport News they find that the Red
Cross has many opportunities for them
if they are properly equipped, to en-
ter. or to re-enter, public health work.
The numbers available even now, am
told, are hardly adequate for the de-
mand already existing. And the de-
mand is certain, to increase as rapidly
as our civilian population becomes ed
ucated to the need of the public health
nurse, as rapidly as it becomes to ap-
preciate how large proportion of our
young men failed to qualify physically
in the draft, largely because OF defects
due to the lack of proper and adequate
community health provisions, and IN
other directions"

Wild Men Screaming.

Stones were gathering on the roof
and wild men were screaming through
the keyhole while enormous issues de-
pended upon them which required calm
elaboration las vivid, strong char
acterization of the more vicious critics
of the peace conference this utterance
by Lloyd George squarely hits the
mark Wilson "got his" much earlier
when certain United States senator be-
came hysterical and wanted to send
shopping committee to Paris to safe
guard the senate's alleged rights by
taking notes on the back stairs. It is
to be hope that the future historians
of the peace conference will immortal
ize Lloyd Georges phrase, wild men
screaming through the keyhole," be-
cause of its exquisite historical ac-
curacy Springfield Republican.

THE LEAvETAKING

There is always touch of sadness
declared sage DIR. Samuel Johnson, a
bout doing thing for the last time.
Only he added, you have to be sure
it is the last time.
There would be nothing noticeahly
sad, for instance, in the last meal with
a messkit If rehabilitation came IN
expectedly in the middle of the after
noon. But If a man knows beforehand
that he is eating the last meal he will
probably ever eat out of meSskit,
that foolish something called senti-
ment will bob up into his throat and
all but block the passage Of the last
army bean-even while he cusses and
remarks that the last bucket of dish
water will probably be as greasy ss
the first was, even though the water
has been changed.
There will be several last things for
the three quarters of the A. E. +. that
is left just as there were for the one
quarter that is gone. The last day in
France. for instance. And the last

There is no charity in this plan. Il
will only give the men what they
have earned thrice and a very small
portion of what they deserve. How
much would we have had if it had
not been for the men of the service?
Would it be giving our service meil
a fair deal to only give them one
month bonus when their commercial
competitors have saved few thou
sand dollars for rainy day, while the
gates of our national treasury were
swung wide open from necessity?

a bill through congress whereby every
man of the service, regulars, reserves
etc., shall receive II months extra
pal, whether they went abroad or
not. Those staying in the service will
receive it as well as those being dis
charged. The men of the service have
worked in the various camps for one
dollar per day while the civilians at
heir side received as much as ten
and fifteen dollars per day, the civil
ian going home at night and the SER

You know that the majority of the
men that joined the service gave up.
positions paying them around $50
per month and some as much as $500
per month. Compare that with $50
per month.
This is moral issue. The men of
the service worked or fought night
and day for whatever the government
chose to pay them; they did not
strike, neither did they get ten per
cent plus. They only obeyed orders.
The only record we have of whole
company disobeying orders was that
one of our companies were charging
the Huns and the officers gave orders
to halt, but they captured several
German dugouts before obeying him.

SAYS GOLDEN RULE
ISLABOR PANACEA

NEW HAVEN, Conn. April A.
"Bolshevism is not likely to take
serious proportions in the United
States when the wag earners know
that capital is treating labor fairly"
declares John D, Rockefeller. 5r., in
a long interview published in the
Yale Daily News today.
Mr.. Rockefeller says that the only
hope OF industrial peace in this coun-
try is the practice OF the Golden
Rule by capital and labor.
In telling how personal touch leads
men to regard each other in q diff
ferent light, Mr.. Rockefeller relates
an incident which followed an ad-
dress he made at Y. II. c. A. camp
in France.
81 was standing in q group Of SOL
diers when one OF them asked the
secretary in charge which was Mr
Rockefeller. The secretary pointed
me out. The man walked slowly
around the group, then looked, stop
ped and listened and said; stop your
fooling, that's not him The secre-
tary assured him IL was. and he ex-
claimed, Why that's q man; that's
no DEVIL"
Mr.. Rockefeller said that years ago
heads OF industrial plants were close
to their workers and thespirit of
brotherhood prevailed. Under mod
ern conditions contact between own
ers and employees is practically impos-
sible. Often therefore, he says, the
conclusion Is reached that labor and
capital are enemies.
Instead OF brotherhood there has
developed distrust, bitterness, the
strike and the lockout These con-
cluston8 are false, he says
Labor and capital are partners.
Neither can attain the fullest measure
OF success unless the other does also
and the absence Of contact between
owner and empIoye must be made
near as normal as possible by estab-
hshment Of personal relations be-
tween the owners, represented by the
officers, and the employees represent
ed by certain Of their fellow workers
whom they have chosen.
When the principle adopted by
both parties as do a. you would be
done by there will be no Industrial
unrest no industrial problem"

MEXICO MAY ADD
TO PEACE SHARES

News OF the landing Of General
Banquet in Mexico and at least one
and perhaps two new revolutions on
foot in that unhappy country is COM
manding notice in Congressional
quarters.
How serious the revolutionary
movement will become is conjectural
However. IL is pointed out that IL
revolution gains full sway in Mexico

treaty comes before the Senate, it
Will add to the complications over
ratification.
With revolution and disturbance
below the Rio Grande and big foreign
property interests threatened, giving
powers overseas an excuse for keep
ing a close eye on Mexico, the SEN
ate will be more than ever insistent
that the Monroe Doctrine be COM
pletely safeguarded in any covenant
for a league OF nations.
Not only that, but from some quar-
ters there will undoubtedly come q
strong sentiment that the United
States ought not to tie itself I'D too
completely in respect OF territorial
boundaries and territorial integrity,
While the United States does not con-
template annexation Of Mexico. condi-
tions below the, border may become so
turbulent as to make 1t necessary for
American armies to go in to compose
peace and even change boundary
lines.
These developments, while the
chances are against them, are yet pos
sIbilities in the eyes OF elements in
Congress and constitute reasons why
this country ought to look we'll into
the future before allowing itself to be
sllemnly bound up in a covenant which
may tend to tie it's hands.
From any viewpoint, IL Is quite
clear that the Mexican revolution, un-
less nipped in the bud, is not going to
make the Senate less critical of the
peace treaty which supposedly will
embody the league covenant.
