DOCTORS CALLED UP
SERVICES NEEDED BY THE WAR OFFICE •'' ■ ■ London, April 20. Ine Press Bureau states that Lord Derby, on behalf of the. War Cabinet, in a letter to the medical profession, says the enemy, totally disregarding the universal tenets of civilised warfare, deliberately instituted tlie submarine campaign, hence it is essential to establish many hospitals in various theatres of the war. Therefore it is necessary to secure the services of every doctor who can be spared. .The Government is in possession of figures showing that the number available is more than sufficient if their work in Britain is undertaken by doctors over the military age. The War Cabinet has therefore decided to call tip every doctor of military age forthwith. —A«s.N.Z. Cable Assn.-Beuter.
