I think that this is a result of the Tokyo Conf\nference a.s the two moving spirits here, Phya Damrong and\nMiss Proum were both there in No vember. I had nothing to do\nwith it and they did it all themselves, and when it was all\ndone they asked me to go on their committee which of course\nI accepted with pleasure. The opening was very\nformal and the Prince who spoke gave the association a fine\nsend off. Though the Red Cross took the initiative in the\nmatter it is not a Red Cross Association but a national\none. Everywhere, nursing is going forward. Mistakes are being\nmadebut this is inevitable and we are all doing the same.\nYou must certainly take a trip to the East the\nnext time you move out of the States a.s I know you would\nfind it all very interesting and very unlike Europe.\nThe new reorganization in the Rockefeller Founda-\ntion is most interesting and places Miss Crowell and Miss B\nBeard on the letter heads as Assistant Directors in the\nDivision of Medical Education. We are now in that division\nand Mr Embree's division no longer exists and he has\nbecome vice president of the Foundation with Mr Gunn of\nParis and Mr. Greene of Peking also as vice presidents.\nI am delighted that nurses have at last been given prominenc\non paper as they had it in (reality.\nI hope that Judge Payne will return to Washington\nnone the worse for his long trip. He has certainly left\na good impression behind him and made many friends for the\nLeague and incidentally for the A.R.C.\nI do hope to hear from you soon again and I am\nso glad that you are so fit and well.: I wonder if this\nletter will, catch you before you leave for Geneva for the\ninterim conference? It will be very interesting I am sure\nand I wish I could attend as a visitor.\nWith all good wishes for your trip, if\nin time, and hoping that you will enjoy your vacation\nI am very sincerely yours\nalice hifferaces\nis tole Juey so heis shaeld reach you\nIssueding remember that he Conference\ntime & with you Bou Voyof"
