follow this matter up. We have got the experience of Sir Andrew
Scoble in respect to the way to influence Parliament, and if we can
secure the sympathy of Mr. Chaplin in this matter we have done a
great deal. It is all very well to write letters to our Members, but
we have to move Parliament itself, and I will suggest that we do
form ourselves into a deputation, and call upon our respective
Members of Parliament, and urge this matter upon them.
The Chairman : It is moved that we form ourselves into a
deputation and try and seek an interview with Mr. Chaplin, to press
upon him the necessity of the work being taken in hand, and that
we ask the local Members of Parliament to assist us.
This was agreed to.
Mr. Holmes : Will Sir Andrew Scoble introduce us.
Sir Andrew Scoble : I shall be very happy to do so.
The Chairman : We will ask our Medical Officer to keep you well
informed as to the date and will also make all other arrangements.
Mr. Anderson : 1 shall move a vote of thanks to the Chairman
for presiding and to the Hackney Vestry for calling this Conference.
Dr. Forman seconded the motion, which was carried.
The Chairman : I hope we shall be able to work in harmony,
and that we shall not look at the blame, but at the cause.
The Conference then terminated.
