red by the Indianapolis Methodist the Hotel Lincoln, Dr. Sumner explained the .plan for enrolling
training in the class beginning in February in the Methodist Hospital.
Tn describing the need for nurses in the country, Dr. Martin recalled that 40,000 hospital beds were not used last year because of the nurse shortage. That meant, he explained, that 2 million citizens had to forego hospital care. The national shortage of nurses is estimated at 33,000, he said.
Twenty-seven Indiana hospitals including the three Methodist ones serve as training schools for nurses. The 115 additional hospitals in the stafe depend upon these schools or others to prepare nurses for their staffs.
The Indianapolis. Methodist Hospital served 22,000 “in-pa-tients” and 23,000 “out-patients” last year. Less than 20 per cent of these belong to the Methodist hurch, Dr. Martin reports. Present at the luncheon here] yesterday were Bishop Richard] Raines of the Indiana Methodist area; district superintendents, laymen including Edward Gallahue, chief financial sponsor of the campaign; Mrs. H, F. Ayres, district president of the WSCS; Mrs. Arthur Fairbanks, White Cross Guild president, and Olin Oeschger of Chicago of the denomination's Board of Hospitals and
