miss Frances Lundy,

Hummlestown, Pa.
My dear Miss Lundy:-
We have been advised by Miss Johnson, Director, of the Atlantic
Division, that you have recently returned to the United States. I note that
a
you were holding a position before entering service with the Red Cross, and
should be glad to hear if you have decided to again take up this work.

It is planned to matorially increase the nursing personnel of the
e
Marine Hospitals under the Federal Public Health Service, in order to dare for
the disabled soldiers, sailors and mines. A number of Army hospitals have also
been transferred to the Public flealth Service for this purpose, and we will need
in the near future a number of nurses to act as Chief Nurses in these hospitals.
A circular explaining the work is enclosed herewith. The salary will be $80.00
per month, with a $10.00 increase, also quarters, subsistence and laundry.
We feel that this is a very important service, and that it will not
only be a splendid portunity for the nursing profession, but also for the individ-
ual as well. The March issue of the Journal has an article on this work.
F
Will you be good enough to communicate with me promptly stating whether
or not you would be willing to consider such a position. We eannots of course,
state definitely when the nurses will be required, but we do Jmow that we are
going to need many nurses from time to time. A prompt response will be greatly
appreciated.
Very truly yours,
B/F Encl.
Acting Director, Bureau of Field Nursing Service
