AN APOLOGY
ON FEBRUARY 5, the "Hongkong Telegraph" publish. ed a story under the heading "The Bauned Doctor," which "Sunday Pictorial" and to which was reprinted from the London
the British Medical Association has taken exception.
·
The Hongkong and South China Branch of the British Medical Asso- iation has since drawn our attention to un apology which was published In the London “Sunday Pictorinl" In Heir issue of November 20, AS follows:
The news story entitled 'The Ban- ne Doctor, published in our issue of November 6, reflected on the Britlah Medien Anneintion by alleging that the Assuciation, in selecting doctors for the various forms of National Berylee, was, discriminating unfairly against doctors who were non-mem Jerk or wha had not rendered past services' to the Association,
"There is no Justineation for these allegations.
"We find on investigation that the Anmutation is completely impartial, offering to non-members and mem- bera altke the sane opper- tanilien for murvico. We desire to exprean to the Association and to thour responsible for the admini tration of the Central Medical War Committee nur apologies and sincere retrel for having published much statements,"
The "Hongkong TelcEraph” regrets having given offence, and wholly Associates itself with the foregoing apology.
