MEDICAL EDUCATION. 225or possibly Hankow, to be the hub of a wheel of whichall present colleges, higher schools, and medical schoolswill form the spokes. Then, in Shanghai, probably,certain Harvard University interests are proposing tofound a first-class medical school to be taught in English, to establish well-equipped laboratories for scientificresearch, and to throw their special efforts on subjectsinvolved under the general heading of tropical medicine.It is conceivable that lar^e interests and plenty ofmoney might accomplish these hopes, but it must berealized that for sixty years new enterprises have beenstarted in China, few willing to combine with any others,mosth weak and 7 tentative and struggling. Only eitherby positive union or overwhelming support can successbe expected. It is perhaps overlooked also by thoseinterested that the difficulties involved in planting aWuchang to study Chinese themfaculty of specialists inselves and then teach their branches in Chinese are notvery far from insuperable. And for such an enterpriseas Harvard s to establish an English-speaking schoolin Shanghai, without some very definite plan for studentswell-trained in English to be supplied, is quite as hopeless. The average Chinese youth of eighteen to twentyyears is no more fitted to study medicine than a newborn babe. The needs of the future lie in cooperation andstrengthening, in supplying better trained men with moreliberal support and equipment to match. There is noplace in China s medical scheme for any more weaklysupported and insufficiently manned medical institutions.W. H.
