ing T.B. had--improved plenom-
enally, there were more cases of
the disease than ever. He was
well aware of the reasons for
failure: "We, as physicians, can
do but little to change the ex-
ternal environmental forces
which predispose to infection and
re-infection. Poverty, poor food,
insanitary surroundings, contact
with infectious foci, overwork and
mental strain are beyond our con-
trol."
Not given to fatalism, Bethune
concluded that if he "as a physi-
cian" could not conquer T.B.,
then he must extend the scope of
his work. He began a study of
the reasons for occurrence of
T.B. and soon extended his re-
search to disease in general.
Many diseases, he discovered,
were the direct outcome of a
patient's social and economic
position. ."There is a rich man's
tuberculosis and a poor man's
tuberculosis . . . The poor man
dies because he cannot - afford
to live." • This being the case,
Bethune turned to the political
system in an attempt to dis-
cover the reasons for society's
failure to respond to the needs
of the poor. Some measures to
alleviate their suffering had been
taken but these he dismissed as
ineffective. 'The palliative
measures suggested by most of
our political quacks are like
aspiring tablets given \ for a
syphilitic headache. They may
relieve, they never will cure.."
He was in Spain for just over
six months, but within that short
period he succeeded in making
medical history by setting up
the world's first mobile blood
transfusion unit and developing
important new techniques in the
Storage and distribution of blood.*
Soon after his arrival there on
November 3, 1936, he had con-
cluded that a mobile unit cape-
able of giving blood to wounded
soldiers on the battlefield was
the greatest contribution he could
make. Early in the next year
the transfusion system, or
"glorified milk delivery system"
as he called it, worked on fronts
covering 1000 kilometers.
He returned to Canada at the
request of Vittorio Vidali, alias
Carlos Contzeras a military
adviser to the Fifth RegiMent,
a Spanish Communist unit. The
latter urged Bethune to make a
lecture tour of North America to

China, leaving Vancouver on
January 2, 1938. In explaining
his decision, he wrote: "I rehise
to live in a world that spawns
murder and corruption without
raising my hand againat the m.I
refuse to condone, by passivity or
by default, the wars which greedy
men make against others . .
Spain and China are part of the
same battle."
In China the battle was with
the Japanese. Resistance to
their invasion came most ef-
fectively from Communist guer-
rilla forces under the leader-
ship of Mao Tse-tung and to a
lesser
extent from the
Nationalist government of
Chiang Kai-shek. This uneasy
coalition frequently broke down
A and by the end of the war the
two sides were engaged in full-
scale conflict with each other.
In less than two years with
the Communists' 8th Route Army,
Bethune's medical achievements,
endurance and self sacrifice had
made him a legendaiy figure.
He organized medical services
for an entire military district
in North China. 'Model hospitals
were established and mobile
medical units were organized to
travel with the forces when they
went into battle so that the
wounded would receive Im-
mediate 'attention. Since 1.de .al
personnel was in short supply,
Bethune set up a school for
training doctors and nutses, and
wrote a• text book for the train-
ing of those unable to attend
the school. A
His endurance was beyond
belief. In an attack on ' the
Japanese nbrth of Tin Chu he
performed 71 operations in 40
hours, only to improve on his
feat at .the battle of Che Huai
where he worked continuously for
three days and nights, performing
well over a hundred major oper-
ations. He often Worked without
the most basic medical supplies,
once even operating without an
anaesthetic.
All this -he did without any
regard for his own welfare and
safety. Overworking and strain
-aged him prematurely. He re-
fused to di,scuss pay and When 4'
the grateful Chinese forced him
to- accept a salary of $100.00 a
month, he set the whole sum
aside as a tobacco fund for his
patients:A —
His death, on November 13,
1939, was a great blow to the
Communists. His name had,be-
come * their battle-cry. "Attack(
Bethune is. with ust" He died
of septicemia after a finger, cut
while operating without surgi-
cal gloves, had become -infected.
Of his time In China he had ,
written; "The last two years
have been the most significant,
the' most meaningful of my life.
Sometimes it has' been lonely,
but I have found my highest
fulfillent here among my beloved
comrades."
His comrades there have
honoured him as few foreigners
have been honoured in China. He
was first buried in East Shensi
but after in th

were taken to the Mausoleum of
In his memory they founded the.
Bethune International peace H os-
Peace Hospital and the Bethune
Medical Schobl. As a final tri-
bute,Mao Tse-tung wrote: "Dr.
Betune's devotion to the common
people is a lesson for all. All
of us should emulate his unselfish
spirit."
