STATE CONTROL
OF MEDICAL SERVICES SAID TO BE INEVITABLE IN AUSTRALIA. I ARTICLE BY SYDNEY SPECIALIST. (By Telegraph—Press Association—Copyright) SYDNEY. September 22. The nationalisation of medical services which is being carried out in New Zealand must come about in Australia, says a Sydney specialist writing in the “Medical Journal of Australia.” “The medical profession should begin to prepare itself immediately for the inevitable,” he says. “Let us begin a survey at once and lay the foundation on which to build our new structure of national medicine, in which we can play a willing and active part. “We must be open-minded about the difficulties and resolve to meet them honestly. It must always be our endeavour to see that our plans do not bear the stamp of political expediency.” The writer urges a “clinical study” of the present order and says the medical profession should not hesitate to call into consultation bodies such as trade unions, political parties and other selected associations.
