At the request of the Ministry of Health of Great Britain, the Surgeon General, who was in Europe at the time attending an inter national meeting, and another experienced officer of the service sat with distinguished scientists who had been appointed to investigate the public-health danger consequent upon the use of certain chemicals in motor fuel. It is gratifying to note that the British Government reached the same decision with reference to the degree of danger from these substances which had already been reached by the committee of scientists appointed by the Public Health Service to consider this question. An international conference on immigration and emigration was held in Habana, Cuba, during March of this fiscal year. Surgs. J. W. Kerr and J. D. Long were designated by the Secretary of State as delegates on behalf of the United States to attend this conference.
