Letter from Howard Walter Florey to A H T Robb-Smith, Radcliffe Infirmary, Oxford Is not going to meeting of Regional Advisers in Pathology - Ministry seems to be trying to make Pathology Departments do a lot of work for nothing and to put an extra burden on University Departments - gives reasons why he thinks little research is done by pathology departments - agrees that memo (Ministry of Health on pathology service in hospitals) is nonsense - Robb-Smith must make it clear that he is supervising regional laboratories only as a war measure - comments on this - unwise to ask University to give any recognition to people from outside (appointed by Ministry of Health) - comments on this. 25 January 1943
