workers, veterans and civilians who choose nursing as professional oo- jective, and for civilians and vet erans, such as corpsmen, WACS. WAVES, Marine Reserves, and Spars, who desire to prepare for auxiliary nursing services such as practical nursing.
 Trained Counselor
 The Connecticut State Nurses as- sociation is at present attempting to secure the services of a trained counselor whose duties will be to help nurses find solutions to their educational, professional and per- sonal problems. According to Mrs. Cullen, the counselor would spend much time in travel about the state in order to make herself available to as many nurses as possible.
 She described the need of a trained counselor as "very evident at the present tirne," and stated that the plan would meet a livery real need in the immediate postwar period and would provide the basis for a broad peacetirne program"
 Nurses terminating their services from industrial plants, recent grad. uates from schools of nursing in and out of the state and nurses separat- ing from military service are al- ready starting to come to the local headquarters of the CSNA for guid- ance, counseling and placement" Mrs. Cullen said.
 She explained that eventually, local offices would be set up where nurses, veterans and others could apply If they wished assistance in placement, guidance s1ld counseling. Employers requests for positions to be filled would be on file at the as- sociation headquarters and local of- fees.
 The free service to be set up here would be responsible for listing and compiling credentials of nurses who seek counseling and placement serv- ice, recording requests for nurses, developing public relations programs and compiling information and statistics which wuold be of value to the total program.
 Standardized Tests
 As part of the counseling proce- dure provision will be made for standardized tests to be adminis- tered, scored and interpreted for nurses. So far as possible, place. ments would be made locally and those which cannot be made locally will be referred to the national of- flee in New York City or to the Nurse Placement Service in Chicago, according to Mrs. Cullen.
 The American Red Cross local chapters will cooperate with the program by notifying the local nurses associations of the return of nurses within the state, Mrs. Cullen stated.
