I am most grateful to Col. Benstead, the Director of the Laboratories,
and particularly to Dr. Betty C. Hobbs, who is in charge of the
Laboratory's Food Hygiene Division, for the interest they have taken
and the assistance they have given in our efforts to improve the conditions
of food hygiene on Hampstead Heath during Bank Holidays, even to
the extent of affording facilities for delivery of food samples at times
when the Laboratory is normally only open for urgent cases, such as
food poisoning, infectious diseases, etc. In fact, Dr. Hobbs herself
has spent Bank Holidays on the Heath in order to get first-hand knowledge
of the conditions there.
