LONDON, March 24th. A considerable stir hax been caused by the ban which has been placed on women medical students by two of the London hospitals. Some time ago the Westminster Hospital decided to train no mors women for the medical profession: and this example is being followed | preventive officer Customs, and by Charing Cross Hospital. This Excise, describing the finding of leaves only the Royal Free Hor pital-where all the students are
the arma, said: women-King's College Hospital, and University Hospital open to women students.
The matter is regarded as serious by the Senate of London University, which is setting up a Committee to inquire into the banning of women, The desire is to get at the facts by calling experts to give evidence. In the meantime the opinion of prin- cipal officials at the hospitals has been" sought, and it appears that what is complained of is the delec- ties of women from the profession after they have qualified. 'It is said that 50 per cent, of the women who qualify marry and cease to practius at doctors, whereas 100 per cent. of the men students who graduate remain, making the healing of mao- kied afflicted with illness the busi- ness of their lives.
It is also said that women doctora even when they seriously set them- solvca to practise medicine cannot get work in the majority of cases. This is the rule, although, of course, there have been some notable ex- ceptions where women doctors have gained an assured position in the profession. The point made by the two hospitals who have issued the ban on women students is that it is waste of time and energy to use medical teachers to train women in
the circumstances that generally
exist.
About 2 p. on. Thursday I wont aboard the Benclough with my superior officer and two col leagues to search the ship, and after about half an hour, at the back of a large linen locker amid- shipa near the cabins, we found between the steel walls of the vessel a lining of wooden boards, leaving a space of about six inches.
Hiddan Packages.
On top of one of the shelves of the linen cupboard I found that one of the boards comprising the back had been cut across in such a manner that when the shelf was in a proper position the cut was concealed.
There were twa shelves. I re- moved them both and the linen and other gear, and removed: the cut board, and at the back I found concealed a large quantity of automatic pistols, - There were 28 packages with two revolvate in each, and S7 packages of am- munition containing 200 rounds cách.
Robert George Steers, & Customs and Excise officer, said when the steward was asked about the arms, he replied: no speak. I no say.
"He admitted that he was in
charge of the keys of the locker.
