ing in certain designated collegiate
institutions.
Through American University's
afiliation with the Lucy Webb Hayes
Training School for Nurses at Sib-
lev Hospital, 1t now is possible for
young women at this university to
obtain both a diploma in nursing
and baccalaureate degree of B. S.
with a major in nursing in approx
mately four calendar years. The
university thus becomes the second
collegiate institution in the Nations
Capital to initiate collegiate nurs-
ing program and to affiliate itself
with the Nurse Corps.
Given Practical Training.
Arrangements also have been
completed for students in A. us
school of nursing and in the corps
to have clinical studies and super
vised practice at Children's, Gal
linger and st. Elizabeth's Hospitals,
and with the Instructive Visiting
Nurse Society.
All of the young women at pres
ent enrolled in the nursing school
are members of the corps and live on
the campus. They come from all
over the United States, although
many are from the District and
nearby States. Since the course
was opened only in January, it is
expected that the enrolment will
be doubled by the fall term. With
it's around -the-year arrangement of
courses, organized instruction and
clinical practice, hexibility will be
possible in meeting the present emer-
gency for training nurses
Miss M. Cordelia Cowan, newly
appointed dean of the nursing
school and organizer of its courses,
believes that the challenge for serv-
ice and usefulness in the profession
of nursing is greater than in any
other open to women. mo other

tribute so much to total living for a
young woman, whether she later
chooses to follow nursing as career,
or take her place in the community

With distinguished career as an
administrator and executive from
the days when she was the youngest
nurse to sit on the State Board of
Nurse Examiners in Colorado, Miss
Cowan resigned her position as ex-
ecutive secretary of the Nursing
Board Of the District to establish the

FOOD COSTS RISE
z PER CENT IN BUTTE

The retail cost of food increased
0.2 per cent in Butte in the month
ending December Is, compared with
a decline of 0.1 per cent in food costs
for the nation as whole, Edison H
Cramer, regional price economist OF
the Bureau of Labor Statistics, re.
ported in Denver today.
An increase of 29 per cent in the
prices of fresh fruits and vegetables
in Butte from midNovember to mid
December, brought about largely by
marked increases in the prices of let
tuce and carrots, was more than off
set by a decline of Al per cent in
egg prices.
The cost-of-food index for Butte as
of December Is stood at 1872 per cent
of the 1859 average or 0.2 per cent
above the previous month, 3.4 per
cent above year ago and 42.9 per
cent above the average for 1889, when

and regional administrators. These
lmid-reaches are so peopled with mex
lperienced administrators and mer
with all manner of reservations foi
their own future protection, that liai
son between business and the state
people and Washington is never trust
worthy.
If the distribution program in Mon
tana is to succeed, that program and
its administration must be placed di
rectly in the hands of citizens of the
state with some knowledge of bust
ness and distribution and with an
understanding of the conditions pc
culiar to that state. The organized
distributor and consumer is willing
| to cooperate, believing that in so
doing, he is but playing his part in
winning the war. They are willing
to accept suggestions from out of
state career boys, but the past had
shown them that no professional pay
roller who has nothing to recommend
him or no understanding of practical
distribution problems, can administer
programs in a way that people will
accept.
On the other hand, a local man,
knowing conditions within his state
would have the confidence of the peo-
pie he talks to. They would believe
him because they recognize in him
man who understands and is faced
with the same problems that face
them He is not pedantic; he is not
a teacher; he has no solution; he
would realize he has a program that
comparatively worked out may be
beneficial. People, when faced with
this type of administrators in a set-up

willing to try
This year crop reports indicate
that the country as whole will face
a short crop. The way the distribu-
tion of this crop is handled in the
federal and state set-ups will be a
factor in the future of
the Roosevelt administration. So
say at this time that it is time to
balance the budget between the prac.
tical man and the professional pay
roller. Only local, practical men can
save the program or any program that
is to come 1t is time that the Food |

state offices with practical, expert

person that can bring any program

terpretations, he remarked in refer
ring to rulings of OPA, "lose their

guous or inconsistent" In another
sentence he says, "Surely a court
would not be Justified in placing much
reliance on an administrative inter-
probation so inconsistent with itself
and so ambiguous that the admins
traitor feels constrained to repudiate
