LOCAL RED CROSS MUST HANDLE IT Cities and towns needing nurses and hospital supplies to care for irfl'ienia cases among civilians must make their need. known through their local health officer end local lied Cross chapter and not apply direct to Red Cross division headquarters. The same procedure holds good for the military schools established in colleges which may be stricken with the epidemic. This statement was issued at Iake Division headquarters this afternoon as a result of the confusion arising among civilian populations and student soldiers needing nursing care and supplies. If local Red Cross resources and public health resources are not adequate, local health officers ran get help from Division Red Cross headquarters if their state boards of health request it. All chapters have been provided with full instructions as to procedure, relationship with local boards of health and with division headquarters. Meanwhile the Lake Division is still sending nurses and hospital supplies direct to military camps almost as quickly as requisitions are received. New- requisitions are on bond from Camp Taylor, Sherman and liuell. All the graduate and practical nurses are again urged to communicate w ith their nearest Red Cross chapter for assignment. Chapters have received full instructions ho wto carry out a survey of their local nursing resources and all nurses are repeatedly beinff urged not to get out on any influenza assignments without some authorization from the Red Cross. This is to enable the Red Cross to keep a constant Inventory of the number and kind of nurses it has available. Without this inventory, according to the statement from div ision headquai lers. confusion will result. Today's instructions to Red Cros3 chapleis from James I- Fisher, chairman of the division committee on influenza, suggest that local chapters organize groups of lay women to augment the professional nursing fortes if necessary. The instructions, however, point out that the organization of sulIi women should include only those who are, through some previous training or, experience, qualified for membership in this important auxiliary force.
