Pursuant to notice, the following questions were put by Dr. Chau,

(3) What are the existing ar- rangements for the accommodation and treatment of smallpox coses?

(4) Is the practice still prevalent of permitting smallpox patients to choose Chinese herbal methods of treatment 1; they so desire?

(5) In view of the conception among the masses that Chinese her- bal methods of treatment are superior to Western methods, will the Chair- man, from dhb Information available, Inform the Council, statistically over a number of years, the results by comparison of the two methods of treatment?
