Abstract
IN a pamphlet by Miss Norah Dacre Fox, issued by the London and Provincial Anti-Vivisection Society, an attempt is made to criticise the work carried out under the Medical Research Council. Reference is made to the dominating influence of the late Sir Walter Fletcher, to vested interests, to a suppressed report, etc. It is stated: “The public is the Master, the Medical Research Council its servant. Is it not entitled to assert itself and to require from those it remunerates so lavishly, an account of this stewardship ?” Needless to say, an account of this stewardship is available to all who desire it in the annual report and in the numerous research reports issued by the Council.
