The efficacy of immediate self-disinfection in the male as

a prevention against venereal infection and the possibility of almost eradicating these diseases by this means, 339

The gross inaccuracy of the statistics supplied by the War

Office.

The biased nature of the composition and report of Lord

Astor's Interdepartmental Committee.

The increase at home of venereal disease since the armistice and its necessary effect on women and children by increasing sterility and the production of diseased children.

The Failure of the War Office, The Admiralty, and the

Ministry of Health to carry out any thorough scheme for testing the efficiency of immediate self-disinfection as a preventive of venereal disease either during the war or since the armistice.

They are pressing for an enquiry into the past on the grounds that the truth has been suppressed both during and since the war, that the Ministry of Health itself has issued misleading statistics with comments equally misleading.

The title of Sir Archdall Reid's book to which I referred is I think Prophylaxis and Venereal disease; this gives full details of the controversy but was only published in January.

The difficulty of eradicating Gonorrhoea in the female is freely acknowledged by the medical profession. The Medical representative of the Far Eastern Commission was closely questioned on this subject but the brevity of his replies was only equalled by their reticence. It is hardly necessary to point out the additional argument this affords in favour of the contention of the S.P.V.D. as to the extreme value of immediate self-disinfection.

I have, &c.
