In connection with the prevention of the coronary diseases our knowledge
as yet is scanty, but good advice would be to eat enough but not too much, and to
eat more fish and salads and less of the rich, fatty and fried foods and to take
adequate exercise.
I am pleased to have this opportunity to thank Alderman Mr. W.E. Hart,
Chairman of the Public Health Committee, and the Members of the Committee for
their help and encouragement during the year. I would also like to thank the other
Chief Officers of the Council and their staffs for their willing assistance at all times
and my particular thanks are due to my own staff for their loyal assistance and
support at all times.
I have the honour to be,
Your obedient Servant,
S.A. BOYD,
Medical Officer of Health.
