MONTREAL, (CP) — Helen G. McArthur of Calgary ,president of the Canadian Nurses‘ Association, doesn't think Canada is suffering from A stortage of nurses. The only problem was one of distribu- Linn.

In Montreal making last-minute arrangements for the CNA‘s an- nual convention June 7-11 at Bnnff, Alta., Miss McAi-thur said in an lnlervleiv: “This talk about R shortage. of nurses irritates me. Right now about 25 per cent of all girl high school graduates take nurse's training. No one can ex- pect. to increase that figure." She said some 35,000 nurses now belong to the assoclaiioii—making it the largest professional ‘wom- en's organization in Cnnacia~and there are Almost 10.000 practising nui'sc.s who do not belong. "That makes one nurse for every 335 persons, which is Ccrininly .mple," she said "The l.rnubie. is shc's not always in the. right place."

MENTAL FIELD SHORTAGI’.

The only fields liil‘Cd Wilh a real shortage, she said, are those of marital health and psychiatry. The CNA hope: to be able in do something about the situation. probably by recommending a change in the training courses now rrivcn.

"I-‘cw nurses get a chance. in lcarn about mental hcallh during regular training as it is now." Miss McArLhur said. "If they did. they mzht be attracted to this ficlri after graduation." ‘

The supply of nurses has gone

OTTAWA, (CP)-The federal government hopes to be able to help Canada's slumping shipping industry, Trans- port Minister Chevrier said Thursday. told the Commons change up to now in the Cabinet's policy against direct sub- sidics for deep-sea shipping and he cannot say what form

there has been no

costs.

if a subsidy program were to be followed to enable Canadian-own- ed vessels to stay under the Ca- nadian flag, Mr. Chevrier said, it would cost about $5,000,000 a year.

Under current prospects as to differences in operating costs be- tween Canadian and British reg- istr_v, no end could be seen to such a subsidy.

Also Mr. Chevrlcr said, many of the Canadian ships are obsolete and a modernization progrnm—'if the cabinet were to follow out some suggestions— would cost the treasiiry another $200,000,000.

"I am not saying it will be im- possible to give some assistance," he said. “I hope it will be pos- sible. But I cannot see how we can do it to the extent asked without subsidizing many other indus- tries."

"I am still hopeful," he added. “that we will be able to find a method to be of assistance in the shipping iiiriustry. I cannot say what form it will take."

STUDY COASTAL TRADE

Dealing with the coastal shipping trade, Mr. Chevrier said there is .i. serious and complicated prob- lem in this respect. It would re- quire much study.

The minister said he hopes to be able to make a future statement that will allay many of the fears expressed concerning constal ship- ping.

some groups have been seeking to have the government place re- strictions on non-Canadian vessels competing with Canadian ships in trading between Canadian points on the coasts and inland water- ways.

The proposals range from an oiit- rlght ban or non-Canadian ships to forcing their owners to pay in tliese water's Canadian wages. which are the highest in the world

outside the'Unltcd States.

four years and cannot go up much higher, she believes. In the same period, the number of hospital beds has increased by 30 per cent. "All we've got to do is make sure our nurses are used effi- ciently and are not given jobs which untrained people could do just as well."
