CENTRES FOR MEDICAL TREATMENT.
[To THE EDITOR or THE " SPECTATOR."]
Snt,—Having had during my fifty years of medical practice, including hospital and dispensary work, abundant opportuni- ties of seeing the need for more centres for medical treatment by the general practitioner than at present exist, I shall be glad if you will permit me to endorse, as strongly as I can, the sug- gestion made by your contributor " D." that the country centres established by the British Red Cross Society for
ex-Soldiers should be kept open for the benefit of the civil population and extend their opportunities of usefulness by asso- ciating the practitioners of the neighbourhood in their working. In Surrey particularly I shall be glad to give any help I can in making known the Red Cross Curative posts which your editorial note tells us have been treating civilians, and especi- ally children, during the past three years.—I am, Sir, &c., H.
