|More Nursing Schools
{Are Admitting Negroes
Enough schools of nursing are
newly opening their doors to Negro
students that the qualified young
woman should not hesitate to apply
to the school of her choice, whether
or not it is listed a admitting Negro
es, according to Mrs. Estelle Massey
Riddle, consultant in Negro nursing,
for the National Nursing Council for
War Service.
“A definite change in attitude has
grown out of the war situation” said
Mrs. Riddle in her New York office.
‘‘The acute nursing shortage made it
apparent that all potential nursing
power should be utilized. Although
Negro women have a definite flair
for nursing, only slightly more than
one percent of the graduate nurses in
the country are Negro as compared
with ten percent of the population.
“It has been hard to increase the
supply of Negro nurses because edu
cational facilities are totally inade
quate. And because so few of the
best schools of nursing were open to
Negroes, the better qualified Negro
| girls have tended to go into teaching
or other work.”
Now, Mrs. Riddle declared, a
change is under way. Leading
schools are making places for at least
a few Negro students and directors
of other schools are open to convic
tion if a young woman with the re
quisite high school diploma, good
grades, and other qualifications asked
by the particular school, makes appli
cation.
“he needT now is for qualified ap
plicants,” said Mrs. Riddle. “A
great deal of effort has been made to
secure this extension of opportunity.
It challenges Negro women every
where.”
Mrs. Riddle said that the 2,000 Ne
gro students now in schools of nurs
ing is a dangerous low, in view of the
health problems of the nation and of

“At the same time, it has never
been easier for a girl to get an educa
tion in nursing. Entrance into the
U. S. Cadet urse Corps gives the stu
dent an opportunity to secure profes
sional education without cost to her
self. The Corps provides mainten
ance, a complete set of uniforms,
books, tuition and monthly stipends
ranging from $15 the first nine mon
ths to a maximum of $30 for the Sen
ior Cadet period.
“After graduation, nurses have a
wide choice of fields in which to
work. These include such specialit
ies as operating room work nursing
of children, psychiatry, orthopedics,
public health nursing, teaching and
supervising and work as administra
tors and specialized consultants.
‘The post-war era holds bright pos
sibilities for a new and concentrated

Mrs. Riddle said that before the

of nursing have been listed as admit

applicants to consult their local Nurs

changes in school policy are not al

No Discrimination Order
Hailing the War Department Order
, recently reported by the press pro
hibiting segregaton in the use of post
changes, government transportation
and army motion picture facilities as
‘an important step forward in the
fight to abolish discrimination based
on race, color or creed from the arm
ed forces and from our country”, the
National Federation for Constitution
al Liberties in a letter sent to Presi
dent Roosevelt both commended him
on this action and praised him for the
many steps he has taken toward the
abolition of discrimination.
In releasing their leter to the Pres
ident. the National Fedration for Con
stitutional Librties called upon other
organizations and citizens throughout
the country o send similar messages
to him supporting the War Depart
ment Order.
The NFCL letter, pointing to those
who oppose the anti-segregation order
said in part, “Those ossified white
supremists like the Governor of Ala
bama, who have wildly objected to
this War Department Order are
spokesmen for Hitler—like doctrines
in our country. They have failed to
understand the meaning of national
unity or the high ideals for which the
United Nations are fighting. The
great majority of Americans abhor
the views and tactics of this group
and want the War Department Order
to stand."

President follows:

AUSTRALIANS FRIENDLY TO
NEGRO BOYS.
SAYS RETURNING SOLDIER
EXCLUSIVE!—New York (C)—
Contrary to most opinion Australians
are not giving our boys the cold
shoulder, according to a returning
soldier who does not wish his name
to De mentioned. “Australians, both
the civilians and te soldiers, are
most friendly to us,” he said.
It seems though that there are sep
arate entertainments for the white
American troops and the Negro A
merican soldiers. At the colored
boys’ USO, Australians frequent
easily;—the girls entertain our boys.
“White Americans”, he says, “are
very arrogant in foreign territory,
even in Australia. They have given
the Australians lectures on how to
treat colored troops. Yet the ‘Aus
sies’ take to our boys better with
their cheery dispositions. Austral
ian women refuse to do the whites’
laundry but willingly pick up the col
ored boys’ clothes.
“The aborigines, original Austral
ian natives”, the soldier says “still in
the hinterlands and refuse to do any
work for the government. They
seem to be staging a non-cooperative
