Red Cross 70 date and its department
Of nursing Is daily Increasing ihis eu-
roliment
The department OF nursing has been
authorized 20 maintain. an adequate
Reserve OF nurses Tor the army and
nayy. II will continue 10 supply the
needs OF the United States Public
Health Service 70 which It has as
signed more than loo nurses in the
last year
u VIII assist 10 establishing proper
nursing service 10 foreign countries
where the American Red Cross has or
gaBized hospitals. dispensaries and
schools for nurses. Courses IN home
hygiene and care OF the sick have been
started for thousands Of women who
have never received any education in
THIS direction. Rural nursing which
was In It's infancy short while ago
has been put ahead at least a decade
through the work OF the department
OF nursing and local Red Cross
chapters.
Public health nursing has been ex-
tended 10 many rural communities and
now fourishes actively IN hundreds Of
small towns and counties Nearly a
thousand efficient nurses have already
been assigned 10 this kind OF work.
The department OF nursing is unit
ing with other organizations in a years
campaign in recruiting nurses for
training schools. In educating the gem
eral public as 10 standards of nursing
education and In showing communities
their responsibility toward schools OF
nursing. II will endeayor TO meet all
these needs as well as 10 continue the
enrolment Of dietitians who will be
utilized as instructors In home dletet-
les, In developing nutrltional clinics,

United States Public Health Service
and the civilian hospitals.
The Nursing Service win continue 10
offer 10 women and young girls the
OF securing instruction in
home hygiene and care Of the sick in
every community IN The country. This
instruction has not only laid the foun-
dati0n for public health but IN some
places has given impetus 10 the pstnh-
iIshment OF hospitals and community
school houses.
"As a community profits by the work
OF the nurse" says Miss Clara D.
Noyes. director of the department of
"it Is logical that the com
munity should be aroused to its respon-
sibility. The American Red Cross
stands ready 70 help In a general cam
paign Of recruiting and must have the
support, sympathy and understanding
OF the medical profession as well as
the Intelligent cooperation Of the
people at large"

DEMAND TARIFFS
COVER PRODUCTS
Farm Bureau Head Says Re-
quests Not Radical.

Demands for protective tariffs covering
farm products from peanuts to wool are
features OF the convention here OF the
American Farm Bureau Federation.
President J. R. Howard declared to-
day that sentiment from all sections of
the country was solidifying behind n
tariff program, though in the past the
farmer has been regarded as a free
trader"
Our tariff demands are not radical"
Howard said. All that we want is
quality IN tariff legislation as 1t per
tains to industrial and agricultural
products"
The proposed duty on foreign peanuts
is not intended to make the bags at the
ball parks smaller, but merely to afford
protection for Southern growers, who
turn much Of their product into oil.
They now are facing serious competition
from foreign imports OF vegetable oils.
The agricultural interests asking Con-
gress for barriers to equal competition
between foreign and American farm
products are numerous and embrace
virtually every section Of the country"
Howard said. For example, Michigan
and California, the largest bean produc-
ing states, are cIamoring for a duty on
Japanese beans, contendlng that snip
ments from that country where labor is
comparatively cheap are running the in
dustry In this country. Canadian ship
ments Of potatoes IN Michigan also are
