Hence, the argument over the

We hope this battle report gets

MOT MANY DAYS from now the giant
~ butadiene plant for making syn
thetic rubber at Port Neches, Texas,
will be going full blast.
The story of this plant ought to make
mighty cheerful reading for our fight
ing men.
For it's more than the story OF a
battle fought and won-the battle to
get the rubber we must have to fight
this War.
It's a cracking good illustration of
how Americans at home are backing
UP Americans at the front. It shows
how the folks at home can get together,
and by drive, ingenuity, cooperation,
and an incredible amount of plain hard
work, take the toughest problems this
War can hand out-and lick 'em to a
standstill.
IL months ago, this butadiene plant
-. the biggest in the world -. was on
the drafting board. By the end of this

Besides producing the vast amount of

2. The production OF toluene for

Asked how nurses and patients
managed to get through the Cruel
ing experiences of their days and
nights aboard hospital ship in
danger zones, she replied:

experiences have only been what is

1t. LoIIy, Chief of Navy Nurses
At Bethesda Saw Much Action
Cared for Wounded
Under Hail of Bombs
In Pacific Warfare
By JESSIE FAINT EVANS.

1t. d. g. Grace Lally, who last
Tuesday became chief nurse at the
United States Naval Hospital, Be-
thesda, Md, stood her baptism of
fire in caring for the wounded under
enemy bombing during three success
sive tours of duty before she came
to her present post
The first experience was aboard
the U. S. S. Canopus, a submarine
tender which was helping in the
evacuation of the American refugees
down the Yangtze River when the
Japs were bombing the Chinese
cities and towns along their way to
the China Sea. She still has her
mental pictures of the Japs with
their lorries and machine guns mov-
ing like scurrying ants in their ter
rlble maneuvers OF destruction.
The second was the holocaust of
Japanees treachery she witnessed
from hospital ship anchored near
the blazing Arizona as she saw it
and other ships bombed. With the
doctors, other nurses and Navy hos
pital corps men she rushed to an
assigned station to help meet the
crisis.
The tan of her rest and recupera-
ton upon one of New Zealands
beaches, following further heroic
service as chief nurse aboard hos
pital ship in the evacuation of the
wounded from Guadalcanal and
Tulagi. has not yet faded from her
cheeks.
Only Seven Deaths.
From August until November.
1912, out of the 4.o39 patients under
her nursing care and that of her
assisting corps of nurses and Navy
hospital corpsmen, there we're only
seven deaths. Outstanding medical
skill, the best equipment on the
most modern hospital ship af1oat,
the administration of suHa drugs,
blood plasma, tannic acid and new
treatments for burns, all had their
part in achieving this amazingly low
mortality rate.
Equipped to take care of about 400
patients, this hospital ship took
more than 500 aboard on numerous
trips. The number seldom ran be-
low that on the ferry" trips of this
floating hospital. which took the
wounded off ships at sea or put
them on board at designated ports
and carried them to base hospitals.
This hospital ship was the one which
cared for the wounded from the
U. S. S. lexington. Once their
evacuation port was shelled imme-
diately after they had left it. An

other time, only the ingenuity of
their captain in backing his ship
at full speed out of a port where
they were intending to land, averted
their being bombed by the enemy
Alerts came often in the early
dawn and sunset hours. This meant
that the lifejackets Of the nurses
and Of their patients had to be i'm
mediately at hand. so that they
could be put on at a moments
notice. The nurses practiced
dressing in the shortest possible
time, when they were off duty, Chief
Nurse Lallv getting herself down to
a record of 1'2 minutes on the gen.
eral call of "All Hands Up"
Joined by Army Nurses.
To care for the patients there were
originally l3 Navy nurses, including
Miss Lally. with Navy hospital corps
men aboard as their assistants.
These corpsmen are enlisted men
who have volunteered as hospital
aides and been carefully trained for
this special service at hospital corps
schools and hospitals. AS soon as
possible the nursing staff was aug
mented by II Army nurses.
When Miss Lally called the COM
blned group together for the flrst
time. she said:
I'VE are all nurses. There is no
distinction between Army and Navy
in the humane and patriotic service

we are privileged to render together.
While we are on this ship, it will
simplify matters if the Army nurses
will abide by Navy regulations. The
cooperation between the two groups
was at all times 100 per cent with
the esprit de corps a model one,'
Miss Lally recalls.
Often the doctors helped with the
nursing Of the most critically i'll pa
tients during the night watches
with the crew volunteering for any
service within their power in their
time off from their regular duties
Capt Benjamin Perlman, whose
heart was as big as a mountain "
never failed to make the rounds OF
the sick bays at least once a day

ardous strain of his own response

The most seriously wounded pa
tients were placed in the lower tiers
of the double decker hospital beds
and the others in the upper ones
There were many multiple fracture
cases, as well as those suffering from
fearful burns and severe shrapnel
injuries, in addition to a number
minus feet and hands. Some were
sightless. Her sympathetic eyes mist
ing as she thinks back to that hos
pital ship and the bravery of its
patients, Nurse Lally declared:
Praises Patients,
If the women of this world could
only glimpse the suffering Of the
men who fight the battles, they
would somehow constitute them
selves an invincible army to prevent
the wars of the future"
mo one could possibly realize,
much as common sorrow brings un-
derstanding, the magnitude OF the
unselfshness of these patients to-
ward each other" she continued
When she was passing by one of the
hunks, a lad in great pain called to
her, Nurse. could I have drink of
Water?" When she brought it to
him. he remarked. Say. I guess I'm
pretty selfish. Give it to the fellow
across the way. He needs it worse
than 1 do, only he didn't stop you to
ask for it,
Two days before the hospital ship
was due to reach an evacuation
port its patients were reported ahead
by radio as "stretcher" or "ambula-
tory" cases so that the moment they
were landed the necessary facilities
were there to take them to the next
step along the way to recuperation.
Nurses invariably attended re-
ligious services sometime during
Sunday, with the chaplain having
prayers with the patients daily.

Lions Club To
Hell p Solution Of
Ranch employment

Haying hands available is the
word from County Extension
Agent Newell. He has requested
that the Browning Lions Club
make an effort through its men,
bers to find out who need help
for haying and report to him.
Discussions at the Lions Club
meeting Wednesday brought out
that number of members have
had applications from men who
want work and also from ranch
ers who are in need of help.
Lion Chairman Beck has ap-
pointed an agricultural committee
to receive applications from those
who need help and those who
want work-thus bringing t h e
rancher and worker together. If
there is considerable need f o r
help Newell will be taken into
the matter.
The agricultural committee in
cludes D. A. Longenbaugh, Lin
Maxwell, Jess Shoop, Ray Finley
and J. L. Sherburne.
Cooperation of the community
with the committee, obviously,
will be of great assistance to all
concerned.
