MILITARY MEDICINE
IMPORTANT CONGRESS IN LONDON FORTY NATIONS TO BE REPRESENTED (United Dress Association.—By Electric Telegraph.—Copyright.) ' (British Official Wireless,) Rugby, May L One of the most important forthcoming engagements of the Prince of Wales will be the reception at St James’s Palace on Monday evening to the distinguished doctors who have come to London to attend the International Congress on military medicine and pharmacy. The congress will have a membership of nearly 1000 doctors, dentists, or pharmacists, who belong to or have belonged to the armed forces or to an organisation connected with the military medical services. Forty different nations will be represented. The congress developed out of the custom of pooling the medical experience of the Allied armies during the war. It has already been held in Brussels, Paris, Rome, and Warsaw. The congress in London is the fifth. Sir Laming Worthington-Evans, War Minister, will open the congress. One of the first subjects to be discussed will be the extremely modern problem of removing the sick and wounded by air.
