FAVOURITE TARGET
BOMBING OF HOSPITALS. Every day we read of bombs on London hospitals, notes the Daily Telegraph. They are the favourite target for the German airmen, in this war as in the last. Yet the worst which the Luftwaffe can accomplish has not been allowed to stop hospital care for the victims of the raids or' the treatment of sufferers from disease. Too much praise cannot be given to the courage and devotion of nurses and doctors who have saved their patients from fire and ruined buildings. We should also pay high tribute to the careful and far-sighted planning of the emergency scheme, which alone has made it possible to provide immediate treatment for casualties and large reserves of cases at the shortest notice. This is one of the miracles of war organisation.
