AS Austria has admitted one wom-
an doctor to her hospitals on trial
the coming of the woman doctor in
that country may be safely prophesi-
ed. All that the women need to ad-
vance themselves in the profession is
a fair chance and recognition. They
will have serious difficulties to over
come, however, where Mussulmans
are numerous, as in some of the
provinces sof Austria, for the opposi-
ton to women doctors by the Turks
is based upon religious prejudice, and
that is very hard to overcome.
