MISSION

Treats For

S. Africans

One of India's most noted airmen, Mr.. Man Mohan Singh, technical adviser in aviation to His Highnono the Maharajah of Patiala, has just returned to India with his two colleagues,. Ir. Dalal and Mr. Pochakhana- ala, after a lengthy visit to South Africa, where free flights Avere given to some 20,000 people.

Mr. Man Mohan Singh, who is a. first cousin of Mr. S. Chowdhury, of the Hongkong Government Wirelens School, visited Johannesburg, Durban, East London, Grahanistowi, Ulten hage, Port Elizabeth, Capetown, Vic- torin West and Kimberley. Among those who were taken up was a lady of 2 years of age who took her first Hight when Mr. Singh went to Kim- berley. The party then proceeded to Pretoria to give more free flights there. Then they visited Dar es Saloom and Membara before going to Nairobi:

CREATING BETTER FEELING

"My visit is to create a better feeling between the people of the Union (Africa) and the people of India, and to assist in making young people air-minded", he said,

He explained that his visit to the Union was really the tail-end of two attempts to break the record from England to the Cape, both of which had been dogged by bad luck. His mishaps included a forced landing and a broken plane, after which he bought another machine tu the Belgian Congo and decided to come on to the Cape in order to carry out a campaign for making children' air-minded,

MAN MOHAN SINGH

Mr. Pochalchanawala in an inter view stated that they experienced many difficulties in flying over Afrien which, were not encountered else where. There were great difficulties in getting forecasts from meteorolo- glen) departments, and there was n great shortage of forced landing grounds. Miles of forests had to be traversed where a landing would bo quite impossible and there were other sections where there were miles of swamps.

In East London the Mayor and City Councillors gave a tea party in honour of the three Indian airmen. The Mayer (Mr. Bruco Bays) on bes half of the townspeople expressed gratitude to Mr. Man Mohan Singh for devoting so much of his time to Inculcating love of flying into South African school children. European as well as Indians. In re ply all the three aviators made speeches,

In Cape Peninsula Mr, G. R. Ca- moron Dow sold "All my children were most generously treated by Mr. Singh and he and his fellow airmen have many heartfelt thanks. It is these that little gostures auch as bring home most-forcibly" the truly fraternal spirit of the. Common- wealth of Nations comprising the British Empire."

B. M. A. Approves Scheme

THE British Medical Association has approved a new THE

scheme whereby what may be termed a family doctorence. service will be available on a contributory basis for persons with incomes up to £550 a year.

For some years the London Public Medical Service has pro- vided a general practitioner attendance and supply of medicine

to

only for the dependents of insured people whose income did not of their sovereign

exceed £250 a year.

The success of the service is revealed by the fact that already it has more than 80,000 subscribers, and a thousand doctors.

The plea has often been reasonably-made that the black- coated worker and his family should have an opportunity of insuring against the possibility of medical expenses, and, I Lon don doctors accept the new proposals, this demand will be brought a step nearer realisation.

THREE CLASSES OF INCOME

A large number of doctors, I understand, favour the scheme which sets out the suggested subscriptions according to three classes of (family) income:

Between £250 and £375 (Class 1). Between £375 and £475 (Class 2).

Between £475 and £660 (Class 3).

The fees are payable quarterly, Examples are as follows:

In Class 1, a man with three, in family would be charged £3 108. n'year.

In Class 2, a man with four in family would phy £4-108., whereas In Class 3 a man with the same number of dependents would pay £6.

Subscribers are entitled to attendanco na often as necessary, either at the doctor's surgery or at home, to the usual medicines, and, at their own request, to an annual medical "overhaul."

It is pointed out, however, that the service does not include attendance at confinements; operations requiring a general anaesthe tic; operative dentistry; administration of a general anaesthetic; vaccination; special certificates and reports; appliances; special examination (such as X-ray), and expensive drugs (insulin sera and so on), also dressings not usually supplied in private practice.

The insured person may select any member of the service as his attendant.
