Uganda Protectorate regarding the suggested removal of the Government laboratory from Entebbe.

A further communication will be sent to you on receipt of the despatch referred to in Colonel Sadler's telegram of the 5th instant.§

25

I have sent to you on the subject, the accompanying copy of correspondence* which has taken place relative to various matters connected with the investigations of the Sleeping Sickness Commission.

2. I have to request, with reference to the first paragraph of the letter from the Treasury of the 25th of August, † that you will cause arrangements to be made for the co-ordination of the work in Uganda with the similar investigations which have been instituted in Egypt.

3.

With regard to the question of the laboratory at Entebbe, I have received your telegram of the 5th of October, but I propose to await the receipt of your despatch, No. 141, of the 19th of September, § referred to in that telegram, before applying to the Lords Commissioners of the Treasury for their sanction for the additional expenditure which the change of the position of the laboratory will involve.

4. I have addressed you in separate despatches in regard to the selection of temporary medical officers to replace those members of the permanent staff who are being detailed for work in connexion with the Commission. My object has been to obtain at once the services of three doctors with tropical experience and to send out the remaining three in January next, after the end of the present Session of the London School of Tropical Medicine. One of the latter appointments will, however, be filled by Dr. A. C. Rendle, to whom, in accordance with the arrangement which exists for keeping a reserve of trained medical officers for East and West Africa, a permanent appointment in the medical staff of the Protectorates had been offered independently of the arrangements for the temporary medical officers. no vacancy has arisen in the permanent establishment, Dr. Rendle will for the present be supernumerary to that establishment, and the sixth vacancy for a temporary medical officer will therefore not be filled. absorbed at the first opportunity, and the question of appointing a successor on a He should, of course, be temporary basis can then be considered.

I have, &c.,

ALFRED LYTTELTON.
