file THE AMERICAN NURSES' ASSOCIATION PRESIDENT: ANNIE W. GOODRICH, R. N. TEACHERS COLLEGE, NEW YORK SECRETARY: KATHARINE DEWITT, R. N. 45 SOUTH UNION STREET, ROCHESTER, N. Y. TREASURER: MRS. c. V. TWISS, R. N. JAN23 1918 January 22, 1918 419 WEST 144TH STREET, NEW YORK 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 National Committee, Red Cross Nursing Service Washington, D.E.
