DOCTORS' MOTOR-CARS.
MAY PARK ANYWHERE. NEW CZECH PRIVILEGE. Doctors' motor-cars are above the law about parking in the towns of Czechoslovakia. The police identify them by a small shield—illuminated at night—carried at- the front and the back. It depicts th<> serpent on a rod against a background of a red cross. These emblems have been provided for every doctor in the country. It is felt that a doctor must be able to hurry to his patient without wasting time looking for a recognised parking place. - Dr. Alfred Cox, medical secretary to the British INledical Association, states -that every medical man in Britain would welcome a similar privilege there, but he did not think the transport authorities would sanction it. Conditions in Czechoslovakia,. where there were few big towns, were very different from those in England.
