ALLEGED MEDICAL BOYCOTT.
The friendly societies' doctors have been boycotted by the British Medical Association, and the members of the friendly societies have been thus by far the greatest sufferers through the system of coercion and despotism that the British Medical Association has instituted, says the Auckland "Star.'' It is, therefore, a matter for surprise and regret that the local friendly societies have not been more active in defence of the public rights and the interests of their members, and have not made more strenuous efforts to bring pressure to bear upon the British Medical Association by the most effectual means. We have appealed to the members of the British Medical Association who resent
the tyranny of the official minority and personally object to the boycott to assert their independence, and to support the honourable traditions of their profession by repudiating a line of policy that they cannot defend, and that many of them openly condemn, but since the British Medical Association itself appears determined to hold its ground, an appeal must be made direct to the source of all our civic and public rights and liberties.
