Whatever your position there is a place for you in the Specialised Federation. 4. The Future. The members of the Federation are determined to press for a united service. They realise that it is only by this means that effective protection, professionally and otherwise, can be obtained. What do you imagine would be the position if every person engaged in the administration of the Public Health and Public Assistance Services were members of the Federation? British Equity has demonstrated the success of scientific organisation. Effective and lasting improvement must depend on the maintenance of the efficient organisation on professional and vocational lines of those engaged in the Public Health and Public Assistance Services. The Public must be made to realise that the Health Services are vitally essential to the welfare of the community, and that those engaged therein must be adequately remunerated and their professional and vocational status safeguarded. These desirable objectives cannot be obtained without a struggle. Much prejudice and opposition will have to be overcome — BUT — animated by the spirit of the great ideal for which the Federation stands, and reinforced with the energy which YOU intend to put into the campaign, SUCCESS IS ASSURED. Will you be a pioneer in this great enterprise? If so, write for particulars to the General Secretary, 38, Argyle Square, London, W.C.1, and help to establish a unit of the Federation in your centre.
