Need For Nurses
On The Increase

Why is it that despite the fact
that there are more nurses today
than ever before, demands for
nurses continue beyond reach?
There are many reasons for this
A growing population, the steady
increases in hospital, medical and
surgical insurance coverage, rapid
new developments in medical
science, the public's growing
awareneSs of the importance of
good health care - these are the
basic reasons why we need more
nurses. Outside hospitals, too, de-
mandS for nursing service are in
creaSing. More nurses m needed
in public health work and a grow
ing interest in o~ccupational health
programs has Widened the calls
for industrial nurses. Home care
programs for the aged and chron-
ically i'll are on the upswing.
Both the professional nurse and
the practical nurse are needed.
The professional nurse may elect
the traditional three year nursing
program, in a hospital or inden-
pendent school of nursing. Thus
the high school graduate would
be prepared for beginning bedside
nursing positions. Or the profess
sional nurse may choose to get a
Baccalaureate degree from a four
year college or university with a
major in nursing and then she
would be ready for beginning bed
side nursing care, for graduate
study and in many colleges for
public health nursing.
The School of Practical Nursing,
St. Joseph's Hospital, Dickinson
has an accredited practical nurs-
ing program. If you are interested
in nursing and want more inform
alton , contact the Director of the
School of Practical Nursing at
st. Joseph's Hospital. Glasses enter
in August and in February. The
next class will be entering about
the middle of February and APP
plications are being accepted now.

FUTURE OF THE RAILROADS

in the decline in long-haul passen-
ger business. 1t will be long
time, however, before freight-carry-
ing airplanes will be severe COM
petitors The weather, moreover, is
a factor and a great friend of the
railroads. This means that compar-
atively few railroads will be given
up, because of the fact that they
are able to operate, while airplane
travel is undependable. However,
much duplicate track, and COM
peting rail lines will be eliminated.
All of the above means that a
large percentage of the railroads
will become government owned and
operated under the Department of
Defense. / believe that the rail-
road bonds will be indirectly as
sumed by the government and that
the preferred stocks will be treated
fairly. AS to the common stocks:
The, government will base prices
for these on their average quota
tions during the preceding year.

tention to my opening paragraph
that. railroads should be consid-
cred separately when deciding
whether its stocks. should be sold,

I'm THE AIR FORCE"
BY Eloine townsend Dickerson

OF us ever having been in this city
before. we helped bottle up traffic
considerably by looking at street
signs, asking for help along the
way and moving along in our car
like a country bump-kins
Our reservations were at the
Conrad Hilton and we were just
delighted to arrive at this hotel
that faces Lake Michigan and have
the door man take that car of our
hands and get back to being a pc
destrian again. Our room was on
the fourteenth floor and / immed-
lately asked the desk clerk If that
was really the 14th floor or was ii
the 18th. Many hotels skip the 18th
floor because OF foolish superstici-
Gus people like myself. No. we
were on the honest to goodness
14th floor and was happy to
settle in our nice room that faced
the ice covered lake.
We ate dinner that evening in
the main dining room in the hotel
and we had been told they had an
excellent ice show for entertain
ment. While we had dinner many
couples were dancing on the floor
in front OF the band stand, but in
a matter of minutes the wooden
floor disappeared and in its place
underneath appeared the ice arena
for the westward Ho Ice Show"
The costumes were beautifully de-
signed, the skating was good. but
limited because of space as you
might imagine. After this show a
speciality man who made dogs, fruit
| baskets, hats, ETC., out of balloons
brought the audience into the eve
ming performance. His colorful
balloons must have been five feet
long. He showed all of US how TO
insert our fore fingers into the end
of the balloon. let go and the bal
loon would skyrocket all around
the ball room. With this instruction
| the ice skaters came out on the
! floor with baskets and baskets of
500 balloons. This they shot" in
our direction and for the remain
| ing part of the show we bombarded
each other with the safe balloon
| bombs. It was fun.
/ have told you about the TOP
of the Mark" in San Francisco: in
Chicago the Prudential Building
has a "Top of the Rock" and 1t is
an observation room, cocktail
lounge and restaurant at the 40th
floor of the building. At eleven the
first evening of our stay we went
to see Chicago from this lovely
vantage point. Again we found
that we were really country cous-
ins. Our coke and one beer totaled
over two dollars. we soon found
that this city was really getting
loaded on people like ourselves.
Saturday was full day, a mis-
erable day and an entertaining
one, too. Suppose | tell you about
my near Mysteries in by next

live with you. You may, for in
stance, have been supporting your
father who was living with some
other relative.
Keep this in mind: a person who
files return, because he had at
least 5000 in taxable income, does
not include or report any non-tax-
able income Example: Social Sc
curity benefits are nOn-taxable.
But it's not that simple when
you're determining whether you
provided more than half the sup
port of a asperson you want to claim
as a dependent You must also fig
ure the total support he got from
other sources.
For example: suppose your 70-
year-old father received 5000 in So
cial Security benefits, put the mon
ey in a bank and didn't use it to
live on. You could claim him as a
dependent if you provided his sup
port
But suppose, instead of banking
the money, your father used that
5000 to help him live. You couldn't
claim him as dependent unless
you spent more than $500 on his
support from your own money.
You can claim these relatives as
dependents if the other require
ments are met:
Your child. grandchild. great
grandchild, and so on; a legally
adopted child is considered your
child: your stepchild, but not his
descendants; your brother or sis
ter, haIf-brother or half-sister
your parents, grandparent, or other
direct ancestor, but not a foster
parent; your stepfather or step
mother; your aunt or uncle, mean
ing a brother or sister of your IA
ther or mother; your niece or nep-
hew, meaning a son or daughter of
your brother or sister: your IA
ther-in-law, mother-in-law, son-in-
/ law, aughter-in-law. brother-in-
in-law, or sister-in-law.

BABSON DISCUSSES RAJ

to investors with certain exceptions
such as the coal roads of West Vir-
ginia. These 1 like to call the
gravity" roads because the loads
from the mines go "downhill'' to
the seacoast with great saving in
the use of power, and in fact some
of them generate electric power
en- route which helps the return of
the empty cars.
TRANSCONT9NENTAL
RAILROADS
These are roads operating from
Chicago to the Pacific Coast and,
as yet, they are not affected by
competition from trucks. Recently.
on the Santa Fe Super Chief, I was
a passenger on a beautiful train
having eleven cars and two diesel
engines and a total of only seventy
six passengers. The spiggy-back"
experiments are successful in, GER
tain localities, while the automatic
switching yards are helping such
roads as the ST. LOuis-San Francis
co. The transcontinental rails ap-
pear to be about the best holdings.
My favorite group of railroads, in.
fact, are those transcOntinentals
which also own large acreages con-
tanning forests and minerals. This
especially is true of the Union Pa
cific, the Northern Pacific, the
Canadian Pacific and the Atchin-
son, Topeka and Santa Fe. / have
been told by the president of one
of these roads that all passenger
business and. a proportion of the
freight business could be eliminated

Babson Park, Mass, March "a.
The railroad stocks have not been
acting well recently. The Dow
Jones rails, which sold at an av-
erage high of 155 at the beginning
of the year, now sell at 145. The
main point of this weeks column
is to emphasize that it is mistake
to think of the railroads as a whole.
There are four distinct groups and
these should be recognized by
every investor
SCOMMUTER"' AND SHORT-HAUL
RAILROADS.
Practically all railroads are los
ing money on passenger business ];
but the so-called commuter roads
which haul passengers from the
suburbs to the big cities in the
morning and take them home again
at night, with their employees and
equipment idle a good part of the
day-are very unfortunate A cam
paign is now on to eliminate this
business and switch it to buses,
giving the buses preferred term
inal facilities and certain traffic
preferences in order to increase
their speed.
The second group consists of
roads which operate less than two
hundred miles of track. These are
losing both passenger and freight
business. The shipper can load his
goods on trucks at his factory door
and these trucks will deliver at the
dealers or customers door. For
this reason the securities of these
short-haul roads are not attractive

Protect Trees When Regarding
Lawn, Building Walk, Drive or
Terrace.
The do-it-yourself home owner,
filled with spring energy as he
adds a terrace, regrades the lawn
or constructs a backyard barbecue
should keep one thing in mind; pro-
tect nearby shade trees.
Changing the soil level too much
about roots will harm a tree says
Don Cantwell, District Manager of
the Bartlett Tree Expert Co. 1t
may alter the water table.
The addition of an inch or two of
clay can smother a tree. Piling
soil around trunk may cause a
bark girdling rot that leads to
death. Shallow rooted dogwoods,
naples, birches and beeches are
sensitive to soil changes. Removal
of soil about the roots is just as
damaging as piling it on.
One large root may supply as
much as third of the nourishment
to a tree crown. If it must be re-
moved because of a nearby building,
the tree might be saved by first
digging a trench with good loan
mixed with leaf mold or rotted
manure. This will encourage devel-
opment of new feeding roots to re-
place those lost by the removal of
that important big root.
Wise builders tunnel under such
roots when laying utility MAINS
Avoid debarking a tree in con-
struction. Never let a lawnmower
bump the trunk.
If branches must be cut, prune
them back properly, flush to par
ent limb or trunk. Don't let a
branch tear off strip of bark.
Keep the barbecue away from a
tree. Heat may scorch it's branches.
Tree roots beneath a concrete
or macadam drive usually receive
insufficient food and water. A
drive of crushed rock or gravel may
be far better.
Walks made of pea gravel, gran
ite chips, flagstones or unm0rtared
brick will not harm nearby trees.
