Title
Copy of a letter from Ross to Watson
Date
24/3/1921
Description
The Red Cross Society suggested that they should help Ross start a malaria bureau but have done nothing more about it, although they have given the London School of Tropical Medicine the money to move. The Ministry of Pensions has had a large clinic under himself for treating tropical diseases left over from the war but that this is diminishing and there is not much in the way of tropical diseases practice in London. Regrets that his and NW Grieve's efforts for public recognition of Watson's work have not been successful
