GONZALEZ, M.D. KEY WEST, FLORIDA : January 14th, 1946. To Monroe County Medical Society, To City and County Officials, To My Patients: On December 31st, 1945, I published a notice that I would discontinue practic- ing medicine on that date because Dr. H. C. Galey had ordered me to stop practicing. I took my case to the Secretary of the Florida State Board of Medical Examiners, and I have been advised that all Tempor- ary Permits to practice Medicine, given by the Civilian State Defense Council, will not expire until six months after the Gov- ernor of Florida declares that the Emer- . gency is terminated. Therefore I will resume my Practice of Medicine as of this date. DR. E. GONZALEZ.
