OF new physicians for essential in
duStries and civilian communities.
Gen. Hillman, speaking at an

ference yesterday, said that unless
provision was made to assure a
minimum of two years medical

able to enter medical schools"

ing in approved medical schools,

cation and one year internship.
Col. Leonard G. RoWntree, chief
OF the medical division at National

spoke at the same conference. said
that with the induction of youths of
i8 and 10 "the problem of the medi
cal student and medical students
is again uppermost since their
training requires ordinarily seven
years. In the accelerated program
now in operation minimum Of five
years training is involved.
Various solutions have been sug
eested for the handling of the edu-
cation of this group, he said, and
asserted that there is possibility
that special enlisted corps will be
created" to cover the medical
student program.
DR.. Frank H. Lahey of Boston,
chairman of the Board of Procure
ment and Assignment Services for
Doctors, said the country as whole
had met the quotas of physicians
asked by the armed forces They
