FORM 766 THE AMERICAN RED CROSS NATIONAL HEADQUARTERS To: National Headquarters and Date: October 19, 1936 Branch Office Staffs From: Vice Chairman in Charge Subject: Miss Ida F. Butler of Domestic Operations Director of Nursing Service In accordance with the announcement made at the time, Miss Ida F. Butler was appointed Acting Director of Nursing Service following the sudden death of Miss Clara D. Noyes, June 4, 1936. Inasmuch as Miss Butler had planned to retire June 30, 1936, and since it was then felt that a permanent successor to Miss Noyes would be appointed within a relatively short time, Miss Butler was designated Acting Director. Pressure of work and necessary absences from Washington have resulted in greater delay than was originally anticipated, but Miss Butler has consented to continue in service until the selection of a permanent successor. She has therefore been designated Director, retroactive to the time of Miss Noyes' death. This appointment is a merited recognition of Miss Butler's long service with the Red Cross dating from December 3, 1919 Her thorough acquaintance with every detail of the work will enable her to make a real contribution during the period of her incumbency. I am sure that Miss Butler's appointment will not only meet with a hearty response from her immediate associates in the Red Cross, but that it will be approved and appreciated by the nursing profession. James L. Fieser Vice Chairman 49084
