Under the Red Cross Banner
New York Times

tNeW
Since the Red Cross movement was born out OF
the boundless compassion and energy of Henri Du-
nant it has been first and foremost nursing service
for the wounded in battle When that youthful
Swiss visited the battlefield of Solferino in 1859 he
was aghast at the appalling neglect OF the suffering
men left by the armies His first act was to organ
ize the women of the neighborhod into volunteer
nursing groups Then he persuaded the nations of
the world to adopt the revolutionary idea that the
wounded should be cared for without regard to
nationality and that those looking after them should
be safe from attack. In this war there are Red
Cross nurses on virtually every battlefield where
American men fight. They on duty on Luzon
and Guam and Oahu when the Japanese bombers
struck They nursed the wounded of Pearl Harbor.
Today they are serving in Tunsia and amid the
rugged foothills of the owen Stanley Mountains OF
New Guinea. 1t coincidence that the first
woman to set foot Guadalcanal after the Marines
had landed was American nurse
The American Red Cross is charged by act of
Congress with maintaining the official reserve of
graduate registered nurses for the armed forces In
the fifteen months that we have been at war more
than $4,000 of these trained women have passed
through this reservoir into the Army and Navy
Nurse Corps This year 5000 additional nurses will
be required to meet the needs of the armed forces
Because of the efficiency with which the American
Red Cross has functoned in this respect the Surgeon
General of the Army Major Gen. James c. Magee,
has requested it to the sole responsibility
for recruiting Army nurses. 1t is also an authorized
recruiting agency for the Navy although the Navy
recruits nurses directly. Recently it has in
augrrated a student reserve among the senior stu
dents of schools of nursing that there will be no
delay in assigning them to active duty when their
training is completed. The senior classes of many
institutons-Roosevet Hospital in this city is an
instance--are signing up en- masse
When these trim young women go forth to war
they will longer the starched white uniforms
that have become traditional Handsome new func-
onal outfits carefully designed to provide ade-
quate wardrobe in any CLINE where duty may take
them will replace them. But it is safe assumption
that the new Red Cross nurses will show the same
devotion to duty, the same skilled competence in
mnistering to the suffering and the same unfalter-
ing courage under fire that their sisters did in the
black days of Bataan and Corregidor. For its part
in maintaining the standards of this noble profess
sion and enlistng it under the emblem of mercy
that is honored throughout the world, the American
Red Gross merits the praise and the support of the
American people.
