for Gen. Bradley's scalp. A wire recorder which might have cleared the air as to what went on gave out little but growls. Its operator, it developed, had been barred from the 2%-hour conference and rked by intuition. I ratrs were invited to the meeting by Mr. Stelle but were banned by Gen. Bradley. A joint statement, prepared after the session in borderline gobbledygook, contributed nothing of consequence. Three hours after the parley, Mr. Stelle got in the first post-confer-ence licks. He told the Legion's

stern, militaristic organization, army-trained and regulated. One of its departments, the nurse training division at Central hospital reecntly went on strike. I have seen many Japanese Red Cross nurse contingents and I have admired the seemingly cheerful efficiency with which they worked. They always seemed to be laughing, like a group of American schoolgirls on a lark, And they were certainly healthy and husky. Recently I saw a squad of them carrying a contingent of wounded Japanese soldiers through the gates at Tokyo station. The soldiers had returned from China. Each girl grasped her: man professionally as he leaned from the truck, swung him over her back" and strode through the gates at Tokyo station—as though she were carrying a sack of feathers. In the train they solicitously adjusted bandages and splints and mothered their men, like nurses the world over. Well, they. went on strike against what they call militarism and overstrict discipline. They argue that although the war is over they are

They must answer to morning

and evening roll call, report to sen-|

iors upon change of duty, take care of barracks and submit to censorship of all letters, live on army rations. They must suffer heavy penalties and restrictions for minor violations of rules. Perhaps 10 per cent of the 600 have found the discipline so unbearable since October that they have run away from the school making them technically liable to imprisonment, Series of Requests The strikers drew up a series of requests beginning with a general appeal to be liberated “from the present coervice and suppressive life.” They asked for “more parental affection on the part of head nurses.” Somehow, the matter now has been settled, but— 8ix months ago such a movement among nurses, or amMong any women, would have been unheard of. And the instigators of such a Movement probably would have languished in Suragamo prison. Today everybody applauds the revolt.
