PAGE TWEL EVE THE CAPITAL JOURNAL. SALEM. OKEnON rKlDAY, SEPTEMBER 20, 1929 PICK STINSON AS DELEGATE TO LONDON MEETING Washington (in Composition of the American delegation to the five power naval conference tentative ly scheduled to meet In London or 3eneva next January will be de rided some time after Premier Mac Donald's visit next month, the Jnlted Press learned Thursday. Announcement of the delegation nembershlp will be made as soon tt possible after France, Italy, Ja wn. Great Britain and the United Itates have formally agreed on a 4me and place for the conference. Published reports that Charles Ev ins Hughes would head the Ameri can delegation received no sup port from officials- who informally Mussed the declaration Thursday. Hughes headed the American delegation to the Washington con ference in his capacity as secre tary of state and President Hoover Is expected to nominate Secretary Stlmson to carry on the project begun by Hughes. If untoward de velopments prevent Stlmson's ab sence from Washington In mid-winter, Hughes would be a likely choice providing his position as Justice at The Hague court did not disqualify him. More difficult than selection of a delegation chief will be the presi dent's decision regarding including representatives of congress In the American group. President Hard ing appointed the late Chairman Lodge of'the senate foreign rela tions committee and the late Sena tor Underwood, senior democratic member of the committee, to the American delegation In 1921. HEALTH NURSE REALJjEVELATION (Continued from page 1) snug security, that Marlon county hasn't any real "poor" problem, follow one of the county's rural health nurses on a day's round of calls, and you will sea poverty so desperate and so hopeless that you will decide you are expectlonally well off. The next time you think the poor don't want to be helped. Just see how eagerly the mothers ask for help and assistance for their fam ilies or for themselves, how eager they are to learn how to keep their children clean and well. One day this week when one of the county nurses started on a day's round she stopped at the Capital Journal office and asked a reporter to accompany her. And this Is what the reporter saw First call. A Jaunt to a rural school house a number of mile northeast of Salem where the nurse took a sample of the drinking water 1 " to see that the children are secur 1 " Ing proper protection, talked to the teacher about the sanitary survey Wanks which the children will fill out so that an estimate can be made of exactly how ir.uch they know about ordinary sanitation. Second call. A stop at farm house to see a post sanitarium tu berculosis case. The nurse received y. inffl-matinn ahnut the fiatlent from the state T. B. hospital and this call was to see u me pauem was following the Istructlons given him at the hospital regarding diet, rest, and proper sleeping facilities. Third call. One of the largest ft.. ,.Dmn In fh world Where the nurse holds a clinic every day to treat everything irom nee annua a Knll fmm hlnrk eves to Impetigo. In this' camp there are more than 1000 white peopi. luu Indians, ou Japanese and about 30 Flllptnos. The Indian camp la reparate and apart from the white camp and be fore leaving the yard, the nurse vis ited the Indian camp to see the brand new baby born right In camp. The baby was a week old that day and Its mother had been working i ih. hnn vorrt for th nflsfc thrpe days. While visiting that Indian family, giving the mother some nec essary instruction regarding Its care, the nurse discovered that a three year old in the family, wno had been complaining of a sore arm for the past day, apparently had a broken bone In the forearm. Be fore the nurse left she secured the , promise of the Indian father that the child would He taken to a doc- Consbtantly the lowest kw lerla rani In Aalem. I 1 W: Vm kaJ mine "Drink a quart a day!

Food brought from home eaten on the roadside between the bop yard and the next call, v Fourth call Although much In formation was parsed back and forth In the next call absolutely no talking was done. This was a family of deaf persons living at the edge of a peach orchard. One day last winter the nurse round this family extremely uncomfort able with the "itch." She gave them all a strenuous scatables treatment. cured them, and they are her friends for life. There are four children and they live in a one room housQ, When the nurse found them last winter they were actually without a thing to eat in the nouse. At that time she advised them to stay ona place long enough so they could raise some vegetables to can and dry ior tne winter suppiy. During the call this week the mother of the family could hardly wait to write on the little pad the nurse gave her that she had can ned 100 quarts or peaches. 30 or peas, and 40 of corn. She also reuorted that the oldest boy had his ton-'lls taken out and that the children had all been well during the summer. Fifth call. This was a doubieup call. While the deaf and mute fam ily was being visited some visitors came to see them. This was a lucky break for the nurse. Here was an other deaf and mute family referred to her by the county court that she had been seeking irom one ena of the county to the other. Each time they had just moved on wnen she arrived. The mother of the fam ily Is soon to have another baby and she has applied to the county court for hospitalization at the county hospital. Her other baby was born in the Multnoman county nospitai and she thought Marion county should take the same care of her. The Marlon county court can make Its budget reach only over emer gency cases and It takes the stand that maternity Is not an emergency so far as the time element is con cerned. Meanwhile the mother had made no preparations for the com ing baby. The nurse lost no time In writing out a lot of Instructions for the mother and telling her that she was coming to call on her at her home the very next day to help her prepare. AH this conversation being carried on by paper and pencil and with much vigorous nodding of the heads. The father of the family, also a mute, but apparently able bodied, Is now selling patented mousetraps. Sixth call. Although this family was living In a garage made over Into a house, everything was spot lessly clean and bright curtains. many shrubs and flowers, and a generous use of paint, made the lit tle home very attractive. Here the nurse visited a little fourteen year old girl who has never walked. She made arrangements with the mother to have the little girl brought Into the clinic for consultation with sev eral child specialists. I Seventh call. Two children who had their tonsils removed the day before were the reasons for the next call. The nurse took the tempera tures, found them almost normal, and spoke to their mother about the food they should receive. This was a home, poorly furnished but spot lessly clean. Eighth call. One of the most pov erty stricken families In the district. A mother threatening to have a baby any time and worried because it Is slow about arriving, a baby a year and a half old with sores on its face, a little girl thin and scraw ny and suffering with a bad case of asthma. More children were pick- lng berries and working in the fields. The nurses rendered general nld and cheered the mother em- mensely by assuring her that the doctor had told her that the case was apparently quite normal. All living in a three room house. Ninth call. An old and well known family in that part of the county but so poor that they can't man age at this time to scrape up the six dollars It will cost to have a ten year old daughter taken to the hos pital to have her tonsils removed. A good doctor has offered to take the tonsils out without charge If they can afford to leave the child at the hospital one night. In this family also is a 14 year old crippled boy hopelessly crippled and there is no thing to be done but give him things to read and to work wltn to pass the time away. Poor as they were the mother of the family insisted on giving the nurse a little bag of appies oeiore she leu. That ended the calls for that one day, only a sample of many, many days spent by nurses In Marion county.
