More Than 400 Civilian Nurses
Join Army Nurse Corps Reserve

More than 400 civilian nurses
in New England have joined the
Army Nurse Corps Section Of
the Organized Reserve Corps
during the first four months of
the Army's intensive nation
wide drive for reserve nurses, the
goal Of which is $4,000 members
by June 1949. This announce
ment, made today by Headquar-
terS First Service Command,
was coupled with an appeal to
hospitals and other nursing
centers for cooperation in the
Army effort.
The purpose If the program is
to provide the Army with nurs-
ing personnel in reserve units
who would b readily available
in the event Of a national emer-
gency. In an emergency, these
reserve units could be called into
service as groups, avoiding con-
fusion and delay, and with the
members Of the units ready to
perform the duties for which
they had been prepared.
Capt. Helen ]. Thornburg, Of
Millbur, Mass, who is supervis-
ing the the drive for reserve
members at Headquarters First
Service Command, emphasized
that application for and accept
ance of a commission in the
Army Nurse Corps Reserve does
not mean that the nurse will
have to accept active duty.
Nurses holding reserve commits
sions are only called to active
duty II they apply for it or if
an emergency is declared.
A few nurses have applied for
and received active duty train
ing for periods ranging from
80 to 90 days at specified mill
tary installations. Some have
been 80 to 30 days at specified
military installations. Some
have been given active duty in
connection with the summer
training programs Of the Ma
tional Guard and the Organized

Beauty Hints
BY NINA TEMPLE
WATCH YOUR MOUTH

A woman's beauty depends upon
countless little things-so many
things can defeat her. At six
teen most women have lovely
mouths, kind girlisn mouths,
but with the years as sorrow,
vexation and grief twist the lips,
they lose that lovely cupids
bow and take on a narrow SIMS
ter line. Watch your mouth,
control 1t. Look in your mirror
often and smile. Keep your lips
curved upward and then they
will always be beautiful.

Defer Peach Leaf
Control Till Fall
Says Agent

Benton county orchardists wor-
rying over the higher incidence
of peach leaf curl this season
are advised by Frank Webster,
county extension agent, that any
further control measures should
be put off until fall.
If a bordeaux spray, the usual
control, is applied now it may SER
iously burn leaves and fruit and
reduce yields both this year and
next, he warned. Bordeaux solu-
ton is usually applied as a dor
mant spray early in the spring
before the buds begin to swell.
If applied at that stage it will
control the fungus causing the
disease. The fungus overwinters
on twigs and as soon as the buds
begin to swell, the spores ger
inmate and the fungus grows in
between the expanded bud scales.
A late spraying will have no
effect as it will not hit all the
fungi. Instead it may damage both
foliage and fruit.
Marion Harris, WSC's exten.
sion plant pathologist, reports
that peach leaf curl is far more
common this season than usual
because of extremely wet con.
ditions. The disease, which redu-
ces the vitality Of the tree and

es on infected trees. These leaves
become much thicker and crisper
than normal and frequently take
on red coloration.

communities by activities OF the
Acc. But Acc administrators are
enjoined to evaluate special bur-
dens cast on state and local gov
ernments in the light of the bene-
fits accruing to localities from
the Acc program.
In this connection, Shugg men,
toned a weekly payroll of more
than 100000 that has been es-
tablished in the area. The spend
ing Of this weekly payroll brings
in sales, liquor and gasoline tax
to the state, he pointed out.
Dealing with the problems of
community dislocations and over
loads that have been created in
the vicinity Of Acc installations,
Shugg revealed that the Acc is
studying the Payment in lieu of
taxes" policy with the intention
of establishing an AEC-wide po-
Icy for the entire nation.
It is wrong, he stressed, to be-
ieve that Congress has provided
funds for unlimited improvements
in the area of Acc operations.
Referring to the bridge propo-
sal, Shugg said: eff we are to
advance your case one minute,
you must get state officials in
On the problem.
He descibed any conference as
almost as meaningless as street
corner conversations unless res
ponsible officials of the affected
cities, counties and the state are
on hand to speak with authority,
No progress toward the solution
of any community problem can
be made, he indicated until res
ponsible officials get down to
facts in their investigation Of any
need.
Shugg explained that during the
construction period at Hanford
the bridge traffic between Ken
newick and Pasco is at its height
In three of four years the peak
traffic load will drop down to a
level commensurate with the per-
manent population Of Richland,
which he estimated at $4,000.
During the construction period
he suggested, a solution might be
found in the establishment Of a
ferry across the river. Such in
stallation would give service
through the temporary construc-
ton phase, he noted, while the
bridge will be in for keeps, il
built, and would be under con-
struction for at least a year.
I'VE are wide open to receive
any proposals that might provide
temporary or practical relief by
diverting part of the present hea-
Wy traffic across the river by
ferry" Shugg said.
He promised that he would con-
fer with Clarence Shain, director
of the Washington state depart
ment of highways, to see Il pre-
sent tentative ideas can be re-
duced to more specific proposals
as to what definite action is de-
sired by city, county and state
officials in regard to the Kenne-
wick-Pasco bridge.
