As usual, Clarence McDavitt is busy. In April and early May he was in England attending a meeting of the Emergency Committee of the Governing Body of the International Labor Organization. Before that, he had severed his connection with the War Production Board, but is now serving as an associate member of the National War Labor Board. This involves sitting as a member of panels of three to hear arguments upon labor disputes and subsequently the submission of recommendations for action to the Board itself.

In an article in the New England Journal of Medicine, widely quoted in the popular press, Dr. Charles Dolloff lays the blame for Hitler on the mistakes of a psychiatrist.

Charles has recently completed 25 years of service to the New Hampshire State Hospital and was honored on that occasion by more than 100 employees of the Hospital and friends who gave him several gifts in recognition of his long service.
