received last night from D.M.S.
I also attach copies of
scheme for disposal of sick and
wounded submitted on August 19th-
to D M S. and letter of same
date to Commandant, L. of C.

I beg to submit that the
question opened up is a very large
one and ought to be dealt with
by an officer hold the holding
the rank and position of D.D.M.S.
who could devote his whole time
to the matter. While willing to
do all in my power to assist
I feel that undue responsibility
is being placed upon me holding
