Im the course of an interview with representative of this papes on Thursday, the Rev. T. C. Wu, who general secretary "of ' the! organization, said that, though the: Mission was organized' a year ago, most of that time had been devoted to. preparation work and very} little actual work had been done with the exception of an extended visit over South China by the general secretary, and the treatment of individual cases by Dr. Tyau at St. Luke's Hospital. The Mission had also sent a number of lepers to the Leper Asylum, conducted by the Church Missionary, Society, at Hangchow.
'This year, said Mr. Wu, it was! preposed to' distribute chaulmoogra oil to the different Chinese leper missions free of charge. On his recent visit, Mr. Wu learned that though the' lepers had been given' 'a home by the Chinese organizations, little of nothing had been done so far as their treatment was concerned. Asked why it was, he was the different, organizations could not devise any means of curing these people cause they had no money and could not afford to buy chaulmoogra oil. Now, it-was proposed to suply them with' the oil, free of charge, so that there would be no excuse for neglecting the medical treatment of the lepers. These statements, he stid, applied chiefly to the Chinese leper organizations of Kuangtung.
