A question which im- mediately arises is the conduct of inquests, and this was referred to by the Southwark Coroner recent- 1. Dr. Felix la Bisuc, hooae eurgeon of Gay's Hospital, who appeared in laki, said : ** It is the greatest problem of the day, and no one koowa what is going to happen. The Government's pin will greatly deplete. the "“hospital staff." "I suppore wa osioners will be taking a holiday then, and juries so well," sug- gasted Dr. Waldo. "If there ara no doctors, how can_irquesta go on?" Dr. le Bisac: - I don't know. We don't know yet exactly what the War Office wants. Are there any aliens who could come over? There are some, but consulting surgeons and physicians will pro- bably have to come on duty again. There is a great scarcity of panel doatars in the She field district. The depleted staffs at the military hospitals, the Royal Infirmary and
other izstitutions will abortly be filled up by women doctors.
