In this refusal the Permanent Committee had the hearty co-operation and support of the members of the Medical Staff, who, we believe, likewise forwarded a joint protest to the Government, and the result is, as of course anyone who has studied our present ruler's backboneless policy knew would be the

Perhaps it would he unfair to throw the
