Medical Women’s Federation .

A meeting of the London Association of the federationwas held on April 28 to discuss the National Health ServiceBill. Miss E. H. Jebens (speaking as a consultant), MissM. Warren (deputy medical director of the West MiddlesexCounty Hospital), Dr. Mary Hellier (general practitioner),Dr. Mary Hirst (deputy M.o.H. for Islington), and Dr. MaryEsslemont (representative of the federation on the NegotiatingCommittee) replied to the points in the discussion. All thespeakers welcomed the coordination of the hospital services,but there were many criticisms, particularly of the proposalsaffecting the general-practitioner service. Miss Jebensmoved that each hospital should have its board of governors,should be empowered to retain its own endowments, andshould have its own advisory medical committee, and that awholly full-time consultant service was undesirable. Dr.Hellier proposed a resolution objecting to any proposal thatwould lead to a whole- or part-time salaried service for generalpractitioners; she deplored their proposed control. Theseresolutions were passed and will be sent to the executiveof the federation for the instruction of their representativeon the Negotiating Committee.The Medical Women’s Federation will award, in the autumn,

two grants, one of £50 and one of JE26, or one grant (of £75)from its Christine Murrell postgraduate fellowship fund.Applications are invited from women general practitionerswho are members of the federation.
