December 16. 1918.
Mr. H. Alexandar Smith,
United States Food Administration,
Washington, D. C.
My dear Mr. Smith:
When I saw you I felt perfectly
safe in stating that Miss Lewis had not been sent
overseas.
Immediately upon the receipt of
the protest from the Colorado Springs Chapter I
sent a formal communication to the Division of Personnal,
asking them to cancel the sailing.
embarr-
assment and surprise to find a few days later that
this request had been overlooked and that Miss Lewis
had already sailed. Consequently, I could not stop
her.
I am enclosing, herewith a copy of
Mr. King's letter in confirmation with this statement.
I have already taken this up with the Pikes Peak Chapter
as I felt this was only fair to the Department of
Nursing.
Very truly yours,
Director, Bureau of Field Nursing
Service.
