Clinical professors, viz, the pro- fessors of Medicine, surgery, and abstetrics. I believe the inclusion of these professors would entirely obviate the appointment of a separate set of specialists such as.

senior physician, 1 senior Surgeon, a senior obstetrician" advocated in the recommendations.

I need hardly emphasise that the professors mentioned are highly qualified specialists and that they having been for sometime render- ing valued and highly appreciated public services.

con-

I understand that at present more than half of the work in the Government Civil Hospital is being conducted by the Clinical pro- fessors and their staff at a tremen- dous saving of expenditure to the Government. I have reasons to helieve that their work was scientious and above reproach. Furthermore, I understand there is an agreement between the Govern- ment and the Rockefeller Founda- tion whereby the Clinicul profes- Bors are compelled to remain at the Government Civil Hospital. As a matter of fact the annual dona- tion from the Foundation Was source of substantial

and con- tinunt help both to the University and the Government. Besides, apart from the G. C. H. thore is no other Clinical teaching centre for the medical students. Hence I mention that if it is for no other renson, than that of upholding the privilege and duty of Hongkong, as. being the beacon-light of educa tion, especially in medicine, in this part of the world, we are honour- bound to give serious consideration to the University and its students.
