Walter Lippmann argues Army nursing shortfall endangers recovery of wounded in hospitals at home and abroad. He cites rising casualties, nurse-to-patient ratios far below civilian standards, and a need for 60,000 nurses vs 41,500 present. He calls for public pressure and a possible congressional inquiry to mobilize volunteers and retain trained civilian nurses.
