Appointment oi Doctora in Australia EX1LED GERMANS?
(By Telegraph -
AUCKLAND, This Day. In an interview to-day the Hon. A. G. Ogilvie, Premier of Tasmania, indicated that the British Medical Association did not look altogether with favour on his Government 's scheme for the appointment of State medical officers in remote country districts. "We are making a start in January next with ten medical officers who will be Civil Servants," fsaid Mr Ogilvie. "If we cannot obtain the men we require in Australia we will try England; if we fail there were will have no hesitation in appointing German doctors who have been exiled because of Herr Hitler's anti-Semitic campaign. Many of these professional men have exceed-
ingly high qualifications and some brilliant careers." He added that despite the opposition shown by the B.M.A. and a section of the Press, the Government had gone steadily forward and had taken no notiee bf the critieism. It had reeeived many applications from English doctors and was confident that it would have no difficulty in making appointments. If the scheme is successful it is likely to be extended to embrace the wholo State.
