Abstract
THE seventh Congress of the Far Eastern Association of Tropical Medicine was held in Calcutta on Dec. 5-24 last. The Association was founded at Manila in 1908, where the first congress was held in 1910. Since that date congresses have been held at intervals, usually of two years (except during and for a short interval after the War), at Hongkong, Saigon, Weltevreden, Singapore, and Tokyo. The Calcutta Congress was the largest that has so far been held, and was attended by about 900 members. The headquarters were in the School of Tropical Medicine and the adjacent Medical College.
