W.R.,
An asterisk is affixed to the names of those who contested seats unsuccessfully at the General Election last year, the identical seat in each case with the exception of Mr. Hastings, who then stood for Surrey, Epsom, and Dr. Spero for Leicester, West. The Parliamentary Elections Committee of the British Medical Association (429, Strand, London, W.C. 2) is no doubt supporting two or more candidates as at the last election, although we regret to note that Dr. H. B. Brackenburv is not standing again. The Federation of Medical and Allied Services (12, Stratford-place, London, W. 1) is also supporting medical candidates as on previous occasions and has already received several applications from such.
