MALE NURSE BELITTLED Iiocal Physicians Prove Defenders of Poor Man, Who Takes TTp Nursing as Profession, Declar ing They Are Reliable. "When several hundred Portland women nurses read yesterday what Dr. S. Means Gregory, of Bellevue Hospital, New York, had to say regajding male nurses there were gleeful chuckles, for be it known the woman graduate hospital nurse is in tensely je.ilou of the higher 6alary and other privileges the male variety enjoys. Dr. Gregory's opinion that only those men are nurses with whom "s-omething is the matter," was excitedly discussed and while there were not many who agreed with one dainty miss that "male nurses were not O. K," or with Dr. A. E. Rockey, on the other hand, who thought them "thoroughly trustworthy and reliable," yet it was not difficult to see that as a general thing the verdict was thumbs down for the. man nurse. "They're lazy, they drink and they are never nice," thought a local hospital graduate. "Besides, how many people men particularly would be satisfied if a male nurse were to look after them? Women Want Men to Keep Out. "Anyway, isn't nursing one of the few things left for us poor women to do? When we do anything else people suggest nursing. Isn't it enough to make us all suffragettes, men butting in?" S. A. Gilson, a male nurse attending a case at a local hospital, agreed with Dr. Gregory. "The majority of male" nurses drink or dope," he said. "In all my class at the Minneapolis City Hospital there are only two who do not. With a D. T. case they often drink the booze intended for the patient and whenever they get the chance they take drugs." Which eeemed to bear out Dr. Gregory's contention. "If. a man is any good he will never stay a nurse," said the superintendent of a local hospital. "Those with any am bition become doctors and those left are Just the leavings." But where other physicians vilified and reviled. Dr. Rockey and Dr. J. A. Pettit stood by the men. "Both male and female nurses have their proper places," quoth Dr. Rockey. "All male nurses I have employed "have been thoroughly reliable and trustworthy." Doctor Evades Direct Answer. "Are they better than women- nurses'" the doctor was asked. "I never said so," was the somewhat evasive reply. But the-girl -nurses do not share the doctors" opinions. "Why should they be paid twice as much as we are?" they query. -It's not fair, Tm sure. If a man is no good at all he becomes a nurse, while only the best girls can get through. They make so many inquiries About our conduct, our relations and our friends: Male nurse, forsooth!" And she gave an indignant toss to her head. There are not many male nurses in the city, and, it is said, but few reliable ones. The girl nurses say if there is one good male nurse they have yet to meet him, but the doctors say there are exceptions to even Dr. Gregory's rule. O'BRIEN RETURNS; SILENT Harrlman System Manager Declines to Discuss Conference East. General Manager O'Brien, of the Harri iwan system, returned yesterday from Chi cago where he was called for a con ference with Judge Lovett, president, and Julius -Kruttschnitt. director of mainten ance and operation. Mr. O'Brien de clined to make any announcement as the result ,-of the conference, saying it had to do only with considering the matter of equipment and bettermentsv incidental to completing the budget of next year's expenditures. Neither would Mr. O'Brien give any intimation of what recommenda tions he had made to his superiors cover ing the situation in this state. About all the local representative of the Harriman system would say was that he was more than pleased to terminate his visit in the frigid East and return to the more delightful clime of the state of his adoption.
