The purpose of requiring taxpayers to file these declarations is to provide a means of paying currently any income taxes not copies of the latest recommen dations for institutional nurses early in 1952. Twelve months later questionnaires were distributed to determine policies now in effect. Of the 348 Illinois hospitals, one-third replied to the survey questions. "Everyone Who has tfver complained about the lack of nurse personnel should support the efforts of our association to make the profession more attractive to young women," said Miss June A. Ramsey, executive secretary of the I.S.N.A. "To improve standards of patient care we must have more nurses. Our profession must compete for recruits with other careers which demand less in education and responsibility and at the same time offer better employment standards for women? So long as this is true, nursing schools will never be able to attract students in sufficient numbers to meet the growing demand for nurses," stated Miss, Ramsey. Though there are more nurses active in the state than ever before, the I.S.N.A. survey confirms a serious personnel shortage. The hospitals responding to the questionnaire reported that they now employ 5.980 registered nurses, 13 percent below their minimum staff requirements.

Of the 116 hospitals replying to the I.S.N.A. survey, 75 per cent now offer social security to nurses and 44 per cent make other retirement provisions.

Working conditions for institutional nurses must measure up to those which have become commonplace in other careers open to women. The shortage of nurses can be met in no other way.
