To the Editor of the "Norta-Cumna Dany News" sir—On the same day that I read Rerormist's letter in your valued paper, I read in the British Medical Journal the obituary notice of a very remarkable man, Dr. Maxwell Telling, Mp. FROS. of Leeds. The life of Dr, Maxwell Telling is an excellent answer to REFoRMus?'s statement that the Oxford Group does not appeal to educated people, but orly to weak young men in the throes of problems for which it offers a "qūack remedy."
From this netid which appears in the British Medickl Journal of May 14, 1938, I gather the following facts about Dr. Telling's\life.
1906—Clinical Lecturer in Medicine.
Medical Pathology.
1601—Honorary monstrator in 1910—Clinical Subtiean.
Therapeutics.
1921—Lecturer in Pharmacology "ud 1923-Professor of Medicine and Head of the Medical Dept.
1982—Professor of Forensic Medicine.
He "also held appointments in several other hospitals, established clinics and so on, To quote the British Medical Journal ents to this district, that it is an: thing but pleasant to crowd in with a bunch of coolies. The buses, further. are so low that a person 5 ft. 9 inches cannot stand erect. During these hot days it is anything but beneficial to health and conffort to continue to travel in these buses. The fare, which used to be 9 cents for the distance I travel, was, up to May 31, 15 cents, and has since been increased to 18 cents. The street-car fare used to be 4 cents, 3rd class. How can a workman possibly afford to pay such prices—and after a day's hard work what other alternative has he but to use these buses?
It is our Municipal Council which again fails in its duty to return comfortable, and most important, healthy travel conditions on the North side of the Creek. The Shanghai Omnibus Ca. is requested to retura their buses to this district, which is the International Settlement with or without permission of the Japanese. Our military in Shanghai are tired of being lazy, they would like to be a little busy for a change.
