PLANS TO TRAIN * NEGRO NURSES

“It Now Appears This Will Be Possible in February,’ Mayor Says.

Tentative arrangements to begin | the training of Negro student nurses | at City Hospital in February has| been made today following a con-| ference between Mayor Reginald H. Sullivan, Dr. Charles W. Myers, City | Hospital superintendent; Dr. George W. Kohlstaedt, Health Board presi-| dent; Negro physicians and civic] leaders at the Mayor's office yes-| terday Mayor Sullivan today authorized | the following statement: “There has been no deviation from | ‘the program worked out last spring. The conference on Friday was merely a confirmation of that program. Early Plans Recalled made at &|

Arrangements were | spring to]

committee meeting last provide for the beginning of student Yiurse training for Negroes in due time. It now appears that this will be possible in February.” Earlier todav, Dr. Myers said he dould not confirm the report of these arrangements, first made known by *F. E. De Frantz secretary of the Colored Branch, Y. M. C. A, whd attended yesterday's meeting. “There was no written agreement ‘covering the admission of Negro girls to training in February, but it was mentioned as a definite possi*pility,” Mr. De Frantz said. “The ‘matter of admitting Negro medical school graduates as internes, beginning next fall, was discussed at some length. As I understand it, the plan was to start with a few student nurses and internes, and| make a gradual increase in both | groups.”

| De Frantz Gives Position A joint statement issued by the Mayor, Dr. Myers and Dr. KohlStaedt yesterday following the meeting, made no mention of anv definite proposal to inaugurate training of Negro nurses at City Hospital at any stated time “I asked that some information of this step be included in the statement issued at the close of the meeting,” Mr. De Frantz said, | “because I felt that the time ele- | ment was of greatest interest to the community.” Yesterday's meeting came as a climax to a week-long controversy which began when Col. E. W Clark, | acting PWA Administrator, and W J. Trent Jr, PWA adviser on Negro affairs, charged that the City | had not lived up to the terms of | the agreement under which PWA funds were provided to assist in | construction of the City Hospital's F Wing. The PWA grant stated that the mew wing's third and fourth floors should be used for Negro patients, and the fifth floor as quarters for| Negro nurses and internes Sullivan Calls Meeting Yesterday's meeting followed re‘quests from leaders of an interracial committee that they be alowed to discuss the situation with Mayor Sullivan The statement issued at the meeting’s close is as follows: “We have been making and will | continue to make an honest effort to provide training for Negro physicians and nurses at City Hospital “The problem, however, is one of evolution and not revolution “The training of a specialist cannot be accomplishad in a few weeks Jt may take four to eight years. There now are eight Negro physicians on the out-patient staff and we have received no complaints from them as to the treatment and opportunity they are being given. We have twd nursss on the staff, although only one is on active duty at this time, due to the fact that the other has been given a leave of absence to undergo an operation in her homie city. We also have two Negro dentists. All these have been appointed since Jan. 1, 1939 . “It was our understanding last ‘spring that the Aesculapian Society ‘was satisfied that we are getting a program underway and that we would be given time to work it out ‘The program as now being worked | out is for the best interests of all patients, who must be our first con- | sideration. The hospital must main- | ‘tain its rating and we will do every‘thing toward that end without dis criminating against anv race.” {

NO TRACE OF CZECH REVOLT DISCOVERED

PRAHA, Sept. 23 (U. P.) —British reports of a widespread Czech uprising in Bohemia and Moravia were denied by officials today, but| it was admitted that several hundred arrests had been made “for safety’s sake.” | Foreign newspaper correspond- | ents, invited by Puehrer Adolf Hitler to see conditions here personally! found no evidence of there having been disorders Secretary of State KX. H. Frank. chief aid to Protector Baron Constantin von Neurath, told the correspondents that the British reports of revolt were “British wishful dreams.” He said Chancellor Adolf Hitler personally had ordered the correspondents invited to Praha An official spokesman said those arrested mainly were former adherents of former Czechoslovakian President Eduard Benes, a few chaplains who had sold predated baptismal certificates to Jews, and some workmen who “had the mis-| fortune to make themselves noticeable.”

portant issue in America today ‘is party chieftains worked fervently to | to keep the United States out of restort harmony to party ranks that

war.” He predicted that neutrality will | be debated bitterly in Congress “In the Middlewest, the public] favors the present neutrality law while in the East the cash and carry

| plan for the sale of arms has the

greatest support,” he said. “We must keep out of war not only because involvement might cost the lives of millions of our finest youths and untold billions of wealth, but if we do not, our constitutional system of government will be in such deadly peril it may perish.”

Warns of “False Slogans”

Mr. Capehart urged the American people “not to be sold on the out-| worn false slogans” of the New Deal Administration. ! “We believe that Congress should | avail itself of the opportunity to establish a permanent check upon those forces within our nation that might decide to plunge us into war for their own selfish interests,” he said. “We believe Congress should do a service to the American people by reclaiming the powers they have in the last seven vears delegated to the President of the United States “Tt is true that during the past few weeks this country has enjoved a small increase in employment and business-—but surely the present administration can take no credit for any of that-it is an increase based upon pump-priming of the worst sort--a boom based on the blood of other nations.”

Discusses War's Effects

Speaking of the effect of war in politics, Mr. Capehart said: “The New Deal battle cry in 1940 will be a repetition of the 1916 campaign—Don’t change horses in the middle of the stream’ ‘We will keep you out of war’ | “If the New Dealers are success- | ful in again selling the Ameri- | can people on these out-worn and false slogans, then we will have reached the end of our American democracy.” | State Chairman Arch N. Bobbitt appealed for more harmony in the! party “Let's not jeopardize our chances for success by beginning to fight for power within our party,” he said.| “Let's forget factionalism. Let's all| begin doing something for the Re- | publican Party.” | A faction headed by Ralph Gates, | Columbia City, Fourth District] chairman, has been reported trving to take control of the party from the Bobbitt leadership |

Denounces Factionalism

“We must avoid the appearance of factionalism and strike down | selfish interests which mav seek to control our party,” he said. | “Individuals aren't important. We will remember that—if we will forget jealousies for a while, the Republican Party again will be-| come the dominent influence in American government “We can win in 1940 but we must have a united party to do so.” Other speakers scheduled were Dr. | Glen Frank, chairman of the National G. O. P. Program Commit | tee; and Mrs. Bertha D. Baur, | Illinois National Committeewoman.! Meanwhile, behind the ballyhoo,

lquet last night, declared that

| flourish

have been rankled with factionalism for months Forms ‘Battle Cry’ “We can’t afford to risk loss of the next election by fighting among ourseives now,” was the battle cry

[sung in hotel lobbies and on the

streets yesterday and today.

The boom for Mr. Capehart was started at a banquet staged last

night at the Claypool Hotel by the!

Editorial Association Raymond Robinson, Paoli publisher, moved that a committe be appointed to formally invite Mr.

(Capehart to become “Indiana's fave |

orite son for the Presidency of the United States.”

Ovation Follows

An ovation followed his motion and several jumped to their feet, offering to second it. The boom announcement was hand-staged and Edwin V. O'Neel, president of the Editorial Association, immediately appointed a committee of five to “call upon Mr. Capehart and invite him to become a candidate.” Members of the committee were Mr. Robinson, Floyd Oursler of Cynthiana, George Huish of East Chi-

cago, Donald O'Neill of Cass County

and Claude Billings Speakers at meetings yesterday afternoon and last night slashed vigorously at New Deal policies in Washington. James J. Wadsworth, New York state legislator, at the editors’ ban“de cannot and never will under the principles and methods adopted by the New Deal.”

Discussion of neutrality legisla- | tion proved “too hot to handle” for | Republicans meeting here in a two|day rally conference. The G. O.

Bids for the fabor and farm votes were in evidence throughout the conference sessions. There were high ranging labor wunion officials and farm leaders on the honorary reception lists. William L.
