Hospital System Attacked

Bruce Bruce-Porter, the physician, recently prophesied the early end of the voluntary hospital system and the absorption by the State of all medical sercices. He appealed for better medical pro- workers and attacked presentday methods of medical training.

"At the Burns Night dinner in January this year my predecessor. Mr. R. M. McLay had the pleasant duty of welcoming the Seaforth Highlanders to Hong Kong. It is now my privilege to express our pleasure at seeing so many of them with us to-night. We have got to know them, to admire them and to like them personally. The swing of the kilts and the skirl of the Sir Bruce was addressing the pipes are an unfailing sovereign New Health Club at luncheon on tonic to us exiles from Scotland.

To their regimental pipers under Fipe Major Maclennan we are truly grateful for their grand muste for the Highland und other Scottish dances to-night.

Lieutenant Colonel Muirhead, who has commanded the Seaforth Highlanders during their stay in Hong Kong is leaving for heme very shortly. When Colonel and Mrs. Muirhead sall they will take with them our very warmest wishes for their future happiness.

"It is perfectly true," he declared, "that the stek men and women of England to-day are not in bed. They are on ther feet, trying to carry on.

"The average man is afraid to go to a doctor lest he should be told

the truth and made to go to bed. If you are in any doubt about it explain to me otherwise the fortunes made by some pill and potion purveyors.

"If you are going to alter it I I would like to extend a hearty think it will be very largely on welcome to Major Wolfe Murray, the lines that the State will take no stranger to Hong Kong who love the medical profession as a takes over command from Colonel whole.

The wear and tear and mental strain imposed upon the black

coated worker. he went on... more than offset all the benefits derived

from hospitals, modern drainage. and the suppression of epidemics.

SUFFERERS NOT TREATED Black-coated workers. Sir Bruce declared, were the one section of the community we could least do without. Yet, while there was ample medical provision both for the rich and the poor, there was no real provision for the black- coated workers in the present scheme.

There was no provision for the sufferer from chronic arthritis or the person who was slowly dying from cancer. In the small modern -house or flat such victims, had to be maintained while children were brought up side by side with someone "hopelessly and chronical- ly ill."

Attacking present medical train- ing, Sir Bruce said: "It should not be possible by cramming for any man or woman to sneak past the examination portals legally, and be, legally entitled to come out into the world and to give any opinion on any subject and operate on any persons whom they can find to operate on."
