The better economic cond;4;,.
of our people a. the present t;n,A
has led TO an increase in Ma
mand Of medical service. and
a result the nurses We now h.U.
are greatly overworked.
Nursing schools urge yo,,,
women TO consider nursing
career. The majority Of scboo,,
need candidates for the next clas,
to replace students who torm.rlr
enrolled through the United S+..a,

Nursing schools provide a rrl

Nurses receive W~eI-rounded
training. If the hospital at which
they are studying cannot supply
a certain service. it is obtained
elsewhere for them. Training in

tuberculosis, rheumatic fever, ard
mental diseases is often acquired
at separate institutions.
During the war many nursing
school buildings were CONSTRUCTED
with federal aid, SO that many
desirable training vacancies nov
are available.
Modern nursing homes provide
every facility for health mainte-
nance and for recreation. They
compare favorably in every re-
spect with other boarding-schools
for young women.
The old idea that nursing was
a narrow profession with only a
single outlet (besides nursing is
still a popular misconception, Ac-
tually, nurses specific in many
nursing branches, and countless
employment opportunities exist
for them outside the nursing pro-
fession itself.

For we shall be on the slippery
downward slope, on which it is
increasingly difficult to stop, where

1t is evident that the United

the issue of war or peace. At the
best the United States can only
control its own actions with a view
to influencing the actions of other
governments. But the chances of
peace, such as they are, now de-
pend primarily upon the capacity
OF the United States to exert its

The note asking the reasons was

Tabriz is a major Iranian COM

part of the country between Tehran

Tehran itself for several days

the Leftist Tudah party is reported
