Items for this deportment must be received before 9:30 a. m. daily, Saturday, 4:30 p. m. PAGE TWELVE SUNDAY MORNING, JULY 9, 1944 Wartime Demands Call for More Nurses Aides; May Now Be on Sa aried Basis The Red Cross nurse's aide program functioning in Lamar County takes on greater significance in view of statements made in Washington about the growing wartime demands for such volunteer services, according to Mrs.

Luke Abbett, nurse's aide chairman of the Lamar County Red Cross chapter. A new drain on the Red Cross chapter supply of nurse's aides has started in the Army's Eighth Service Arkansas, Louisiana, Oklahoma and New aides have been invited into Army hospitals as civilian employees on a full-time, salaried basis, according, to Mrs. Abbett. In Eighth Service Command' The first 90 Red Cross volunteer nurse's aides to enter this newly formed Army nurse's aide sendee have been employed by the Army's Eighth Service Command. With more than 700 nurse's aides needed in 1 Eighth Service Command hospitals to help offset the shortage, of registered Army Surgeon General Norman T.

Kirk; announced that qualified Bed' Cross aides may be recruited 'as- needed the discretion of commanding'generals of other service commands. "Aides who have 150 hours of volunteer service to their credit may accept the Army's paid positions and they are given temporary leaves of absence by their chapters," explained Mrs. Abbett. "When aides return from their paid positions they may resume their former status as active members of the volunteer nurse's aide corps." While in the Army's employ they will wear a special Army Nurse's aide uniform with the medical corps insignia. A large number of additional nurse's aides are needed in the hospitals of Paris immediately.

With many Paris registered nurses already serving in the armed forces, nurse's aides can fender an important war service right in their home community by assisting the remaining nurses in caring for the sick. Hospital officials here have asserted that nurse's aides, by assuming many of the non-technical tasks in a hospital, enable one graduate nurse to do the work of six. Qualifications for Corps Women between the ages of 18 and 50, having the equivalent of a ligh school education, and' able to the physical requirements are sh'gibk to become nurse's aides, Mrs. Abbett said. "Here is a contribution that the women of Paris and Lamar can make to their community and their nation," Mrs.

Abb'ett pointed out. "Both day and evening volunteer nurse's aides are needed so that the hours of service can be worked out to suit the convenience of any housewife or business woman who wants to become a nurse's aide." Registration for prospective nurse's aides is now being conducted by Mrs. Abbett. Interested women are asked to contact her at telephone 1708. A class will be formed when the required number of registrants has been received.

The June -1944, nurse's 'aide report shows that there are 48 certificated nurse's aides in Paris. Of this number, 23 were active during the month of June, serving 691 hours in local hospitals. Two hundred and sixty-six of these hours were served at the Station Hos- Camp Maxey, where local aides have been serving since February, 1943, The remaining hours were served at St. Joseph's Hospital" where the aides have served since the beginning of the Nurse's Aide Corps here in early 1942. The total hours served since the start of the corps number The present class of 14 student aides have completed their classroom work consisting of 35 hours and will begin their practical training Monday at the Sanitarium of Paris.

W.

Lee O'Daniel (D- Tex) declared Saturday he was "ready for them if they want to start anything." "This is a fight to the finish for a free press," he said in an interview.
