Curtailment of Duties
Held Way to Meet
Shortage of Nurses
The shortage of nurses has
leached such proportions that
some of their duties will have to
be eliminated or curtailed, a
prominent nursing authority said
(yesterday.
Miss Ruth Freeman, nursing
consultant with the National Se
curity Resources Board and head
of public health nursing at Johns
Hopkins University, said the short
age will be further aggravated by
the demands of emergency defense
programs.
“This is the time for individual
agencies to restudy their nursing
requirements,” Miss Freeman said
in an address at the biennial
meeting of the State Directors of
i Public Health Nursing.
She suggested that many ad
ministrative duties now being per
formed by nurses could be han
dled by clerks. Nutritional pro
grams, physical examinations and
the taking of temperatures could
be cut down to some extent or
handled by non-nursing personnel,
she said.
Miss Freeman said this country
now needs about 63,000 more
nurses to provide basic nursing
care. An additional 35,000 nurses
will be needed in the next 10
years, she said, to take care of
the expanding population.
To meet these requirements,
Miss Freeman said, about 10 per
cent of the girl high school grad
uates w'ould have to be recruited
for nurse training each year.
Another speaker, Mrs. Frieda
S. Miller, director of the Wom
en’s Bureau of the Labor Depart
ment, told the delegates that,
although no universal draft of
woman workers is being consid
ered, women can be expected to
play an important role in this
country’s expanding defense in
dustry.

If You Want to Stop Tooth Decay
Be Sure the Answer is "YES”
to All These Vital Questions ..;
Ask the questions below before you accept any tooth paste.
You’re not getting all the decay-fighting efficiency that modem
icience now provides unless you get a “Yes” answer every time.
ODoes this tooth paste employ the AU- [—] YES
THENTIC ammoniated formula devel- p-. M.
oped by University of Illinois Foundation? 1—1
©Is the Ammonia content scientifically I-] yES
STABILIZED to retain full strength in —. ...
the tube? □ NO
©Does this tooth paste also employ the ygj
most effective safe cleansing and pol- . _.
ishing agents known to modem science? 1—1
ODoes it give you sweeter, cleaner breath O YES
as well as brighter, lovelier teeth? Q NO
©Does its delightful flavor please young
and old alike . .. encourage them to
use it faithfully?
The right answer for Craig-Martin Ammoniated Tooth Paste is
“Yes” every time. It gives you the full benefit of the famous licensed
ammoniated formula developed by University of Illinois Foundation, which
is acclaimed as the best tooth decay preventive-known to modern dental
scietwe. In addition, Craig-Martin’s long famous cleansing and polishing
action also fights decay by removing food-waste and film with thorough- J
ness not excelled in any other tooth paste—regardless of claims. So I
insist on getting genuine Craig-Martin AMMONIATED Tooth Paste I
from now on. 11

Fowler Cites Price Rises In D. C. Budget Problems
The Hillcrest Citizens’ Associa
tion last night heard Walter L.
Fowler, District budget officer,
paint a gloomy picture of the Dis
trict’s fiscal prospects.
Citing the recent rise in all
prices as the knockout blow, Mr.
Fowler said, “we’ve got to roll
back more than the price of soap.”
“One more general round of
wage increases will make the Dis
trict taxpayer pay even higher
taxes,” he declared, in his descrip
tion of the “vicious circle of infla
tion.” He held out small hope
that the District will get all of
the $136 million the Commission
ers have requested for 1951-52.
There is one bright side, how
ever, to the story of the District
Government’s payroll: For some
months now money that had gone
to pay salaries of employes now
in the services and elsewhere has
been piling up as an unallocated
asset.
Mindful of Mr. Fowler’s budget
problems, the association whole
