Fifty Czech doctors will be admitted to practice in Great Britain, it was announced today. The British Medical Association informed Home Secretary Sir Samuel Hoare that it would have no objection to the admission of that number. It was revealed that 361 doctors, the majority of them Jewish, have written from Bohemia-Moravia asking for admission to England. Doctors who are admitted will have to study for two years before being allowed to practice.
