REEkS SAYS MAYO
 ARGUMENT WRONG
Hospitals No Longer Exploit
 Nurses, Local Official Ayers

The statement of Dr. w.. J. Mayo, surgeon and chief of staff at the Mayo clinic at Rochester, N. Y., made at the 12th annual hospital standardization conference at Chi cago yesterday that the trained nurse is wasting her time scrubbing floors, making beds, giving patients baths and otherwise doing work that q hospital maid can be taught to do in six months, is an obsolete argument according to pr. T. Eben Rocks, superintendent of the New Britain General hospital, who said today that he does not know of any hospital which exploits a nurse in this manner, nor has he known of any for a number of years.
 Tn o1den days small hospitals did use their nurses to do maids work" Dr. Rocks said, but I do not know of any institution, in Connecticut even hospitals with as few as 50 beds. which today exploit their nurses. In our hospital we have nurses assistants who wash the floors, make up the beds and do many of the routine duties that help relieve the nurse for more technical work in relieving the sufferings of her patient.
 However pr. Mayo is showing a tendency to lean over backwards While it is true that we do not ask nurses to scrub floors and do other work which properly belongsr to q maid, on the other hand our train ing schools cannot afford to turn out nurses who have not received a thorough training.
 "The visiting nurse finds consid- erable work in her daily round which has not been included in her theoretical training, and if she did not know how to clean up room. bathe the patient, make a cup of tea, warm the babies milk, prepare a special diet or give an alcohol rub, she would indeed be very much lacking in that well rounded experi- enCe which a perfect nurse should have.
 But when Dr. Mayo says a nurses training is being wasted do- ing tasks a hospital maid should do, he is simply barking up an old tree. That was the situation num- Der of years ago. but not so now"
