MEDICAL AID
MUCH NEEDED IN CHINA. QUESTION IN THE HOUSE OF COMMONS. (British Official Wireless.) (Received This Day, 9.12 a.m.) RUGBY, March 31. Asked in the House of Commons whether, as ten Chinese soldiers were dying of dysentery or malaria for every one dying of wounds, special efforts were being made to despatch medical supplies and assistance to China, the Foreign Under-Secretary (Mr. R. K. Law) said that while he was unable to confirm the rate of sickness and casualties mentioned, the Government had long been fully aware of the need of giving China all the help it could in medical relief and had taken every practicable step to do so. Large sums had also been collected by British voluntary societies and every effort was being made to send medical supplies from India.
