nays: "Because they are essential to
complete military preparations."
"In times of special danger or dis-
tress nurses are always the first group
of women called for. Adequate nurs-
ing service is absolutely essential to
the health, comfort, nnd safety of our
men in the army and navy and the
training camps. It is as important as
aviation or any other service. It helps
to win the war. Good nursing service
saves lives, and thus multiplies re-
sources of man power. It shortens
Illness, and puts men back into service
\sooner. It reduces suffering and pro-
vents complications. It protects men
from disease nnd Increases their ef-
ficiency, and It strengthens the morals.
"Nurses are needed at home as well
as In France because the wives ami
families of our soldiers and sailors
must be cared tor. The lives of our
children, the future citizens, must be
saved. In fact,mortality rate already
is rising in some American cities. Our
hospitals must be kept going and
communities must he protected from
epidemics of disease.
