There is an impression among the Council's Maternity and Child
I Welfare Clinic Medical Officers that the general physique of some of the
mothers is not so good as that of the children attending the clinics and a
number show some degree of anaemia. It is hoped that the issue of an
iron preparation for mothers and babies which was commenced in
- February of last year may prove beneficial.
