Recipient of G. Buchanan to F. Willis, 16th April 1924.

Description:

‘Dear Willis,

In connection with the advice which James has been giving you about the malaria treatment of general paralysis cases, I ought perhaps to let you know that we are having a strong pull from the League of Nations to get him to join the special mission to Eastern Europe, which would mean his being away until the middle of August.

James tells me that he has been anticipating having to arrange a week or so of special laboratory demonstration for asylum medical officers at the request of the Board of Control, but, if he goes on this mission, he will be leaving early in May and it hardly seems possible that he could give the time himself to arrange it.

There are, of course, alternatives; such as that the School of Tropical Medicine in Endsleigh Gardens should be asked to do it. They would no doubt require some payment. But, if you are looking to James to advise you about this, he ought to be asked to take it up with the Tropical School in the course of the next week or two, otherwise he may be away.

Yours sincerely,

G. Buchanan.’
