NURSES
My dear Miss Delano:
(
I had dictated a brief letter of acknowledgment
to your communication of January 12th, but in the interim between
the dictation and transcription of the letter a message has come
from the other side that seems to indicate that my services are
still desired. ) I am loath indeed to refuse to go but I am also
firmly convinced that I can only effectively render the service
they have in mind through a governmental recognition that will
clearly define my position and make my opinions in matters relating
to nursing authoritative. I appreciate that this is a great deal
to ask, but I believe that my experience in nursing, the import-
ance of the work I shall be forced to relinquish, and above all
the problems I may be called upon to solve justify this request.
In order that there shall be no confusions or misunderstand-
ings I am writing to Miss Thompson and Mrs. Higbee and am enclos-
ing a copy of my letter. I am also enclosing copies of my letter
of December 11th and this letter to them.
I am leaving to-night for Cincinnati and shall hope to be back
by Sunday. If for any reason you thought it desirable I could re-
turn by the way of Washington if you telegraph me to do so. I can
be reached through Miss Laura R. Logan, School of Nursing and Health,
Cincinnati General Hospital, Cincinnati, Ohio.
Very sincerely yours
Miss JaneA. Delano, Chairman
himins Wanderch
