Red Cross Works With Health Office

[Appears that Nashville Red Cross and the City Health Department made serious efforts to coordinate]:*Mrs. H. H. Corson, Vice-Chairman of publicity of the Red Cross, Nashville chapter, explains:*”The city health department is limited in its operation to the city limits. The Nashville Red Cross chapter, however, has jurisdiction covering the County. By orders of Surgeon-General Blue of the government health department, the Red Cross will co-operate with the state health organization as well as the city and County. This puts the Red Cross chapter of the County practically at the service of the state, County and city public health organizations.”*”Mrs. R. H. Lacey, Chairman of the Red Cross Nursing Committee, is in practical charge of this situation, and has the following strong committee: Miss Nina Wooten, who is also chairman of the Red Cross Nurses, Nashville Chapter; [… *other names*]. This committee is working in conjunction with Dr. Dr. W. E. Hibbitt, City Health Officer and Mrs. Acree of the city health services and orders are constantly being received from Dr. Olin West, Secretary and Executive Officer of the State Board of Health. The Red Cross supplies volunteer workers, who are under the supervision of professional nurses.”Newspaper article
