E is M. July 26, 2917. Miss M. H. Jordon, New York Hospital Training School for Nurses, New York City. My dear Miss Jordon: Some time ago Miss Elsie M. Jessup, a graduate of your training school, made application for enrollment and was rejected on account of non-registration in New York state. I find in looking through her papera that you made no statement concerning her record while in the training school. Miss Jordon has recently written to me from France, and is anxious for service abroad. We hope to en- roll as many of the American nurses in Europe as possible, in order to save the dangers of the ocean trip. I shall greatly appreciate it if you will fill out the enclosed blank from the records of the school, so that I may judge of her qualifications and whether she would give good service in Europe. I find in her application that she was retained in the New YorkyHospital for a time as Head Nurse and that she had a good deal of experience before going to Europe. Our regulation concerning registration need not nec- essarily apply to anyone requiring registration outside of the state. Yours sincerely, Chairman National Committee Red Cross Nursing Service J.9.D/ w 31822
