To Be Explained by Miss Erf

Civilian Policy
Of Criticism
To be "fit to play on their team
and worth the sacrifice America's
fighting 'men are making should
be almost the only worry of ci
vilians, Rilea W. Doe, vice presi
dent of Safeway Stores, declared
in an address at the Salem cham
ber of commerce luncheon Mon
day. Most of the things civilians have
worried about since Pearl Harbor
have been attended to, the speaker
said. Air power is being provided
at the rate of 7000 planes per
month, merchant ships five per
day though not one was built
between 1922 and 1935; the navy
will have been doubled in size
this year. He expressed confidence
that the food problem would be
solved in similar fashion.
Muttering about losing "only
money is indefensible in the face
of this world crisis, said the speak
er, who later disclosed that his
own son who went to war "will
not come back." He declared no
civilian is justified in criticizing
military expenditures arid advo
cated that chronic complainers be
shipped to Japan in a "lend-lease"
program.
The speaker was introduced by
E. Burr Miller, district manager
for Safeway. Ralph Campbell, a
director of the chamber of - com
merce, presided.

vice and the cadet 1 nurse corps,
the new government plan which,
under the. US public health ser
vice, offers a free professional ed
ucation to qualified students. Her
visit is part of a nationwide en
deavor to recruit 65,000 . student
nurses this year for wartime re
placements caused by acute needs
of ! the army, navy, and civilian
health agencies, and also to Inter
est college women in preparation
for postwar careers. . --v
The latest Information on the
US cadet nurse corps will be pre
sented by Miss Erf, who has re
cently conferred : with Miss s Lu
cille Petry, its director, and other
national authorities. Recruits in
the corps receive free tuition, free
maintenance, distinctive gray and
scarlet . street X uniforms, and a
monthly stipend during their en
tire period of training In accred
ited schools of nursing. ." In return,
they promise to remain - active in
essential military or civilion nurs
ing for the duration of the war.
A native of Bellevue, Ohio, Miss
Erf received her degrees- of bach
elor and master of science at
Western Reserve university, and
is a graduate of the Western Re
serve school of nursing.
Miss Erf served in the out pa
tient department at the Lakeside
hospital in Cleveland, and was
mental hygiene supervisor of the
Cleveland Visiting Nurse associa
tion, before her appointment to
her present position.
She holds membership in. , the
American Nurses association.
Public Health - Nursing, National
League of Nursing Education, Na
tional Association of Psychiatric
Social work, and the National As
sociation of Deans of Women.
Nursing, Miss Erf believes, is
war work with a future. The first
women to go overseas with the
armed forces were the army and
navy nurses. Even before she
graduates, the student nurse now
is recognized as being in a service
as essential as that undertaken by
the WACS, the WAVES, the
SPARS, and the marines. Student
nurses release graduate nurses for
service overseas, or in military or
naval hospitals at home.
As a postwar profession, nurs
ing offers opportunities wmcn
have been greatly expanded by
the war. Nurses will be called up-
take nart in postwar recon
struction programs abroad and at
home. There is now, ana mere
is every evidence that there will
tirm tn be after, the war, -a
hospitals and other institutions,
but also in. public health nursing,
as teachers in schools of nursing,
in government work with the US
public health service, the "US bu
reau of Indian affairs, the US vet
erans administration, and in a
number of specialized fields.
Miss Erf will discuss the oppor
tunities for college women in
nursing, and will hold conferences
for students interested.

Buses' Rubber .Use
Low Compared
To Other Vehicles
Intercity buses carrying more
than one-half of the total number
Of passengers traveling between
cities, use only 6 per cent of the
crude rubber, and only 2i per
cent of the motor fuel consumed
by all commercial vehicles, - ac
cording to F. W. Ackerman, vice
president of Pacific Greyhound
Line, in quoting from a compre
hensive study of wartime trans
portation problems recently made
by the National Association of Mo
tor Bus Operators.
"Bus operators have been pio
neers in rubber conservation, and
the intercity bus lines average bet
ter c than . 40 thousand miles4 per
tire, with many tires giving 75
thousand miles of wear. Even
with this large mileage, when re-"
placed for safety reasons, each bus
tire still has enough rubber which
can be reclaimed to make several
passenger car tires," Ackerman
added.!
Railways Tighten
Reservations
Under New Plan
In a move to have more space
available on passenger trains for
persons making essential trips,
all -western railroads have an
nounced that effective retroactive
to November 15 no reservations
or listings for any type of accom
modations will be made beyond
the last day of the month follow
ing th$ one in which the reserva
tion is requested.
Vice President F. S. McGinn is,
speaking for : Southern Pacific,
said that the plan proposed by
the Trans-Continental, Passenger
association to avoid the tieing up
of train1 accommodations over
long advance periods,' will apply
to all Pullman, parlor car and
coach reservations as well as to
seat assignments in chair cars.
Reservations or listings, McGin-
nis explained, will be accepted
for the : remainder of this month
and . the entire month of Decem
ber. However, on December 1 "all
train: charts will be opened for
reservations during the entire
month of January, which proced

On the other hand Gilliam coun

less than 50 per cent of its census

Sherman, Wallowa, Wasco, Curry

the gap between ration book sigh
