The function of the League units is to i advise and support the competent Chinese technical services.

The three medical units---the Brst under Dr. Mooser (Swiss), the second under Dr. R. C. Robertson (British), and the third under Dr. (Inspecteur General Lasnet (French)-arrived in Hong Kong early in January.

The Epidemic Commission"con- sists of the three Commissioners, together with a representative of the Chinese, Government" (at årsti Dr. J. Heng Liu. later replaced by Dr. Robert Lim) and Dr. Bargic (Yugoslav), the League of Nations Technical Adviser on public health questions to the Chinese Government. who has spent the last six years. in China.

Dr Lu went on to promise the Epidemic Commission the utmost co-operation from the Chinese Government. He said that China's financial contribution towards the support of the units was already In the hands of the Commission, whom he assured that China would do her part in making the work a success.
