MEDICAL OFFICER OF HEALTH FOR THE URBAN
DISTRICT OF BARKING TOWN, IN THE COUNTY OF
ESSEX, for the YEAR ENDING 31st DECEMBER, 1922.
To the Chairman and Members of the Urban District of
Barking Town.
Gentlemen,
The general features of the year have already been referred
to in the annual summary given in January.
Under the circumstances, it would be hardly wise to dwell
unduly on the very favourable state of the public health during
the year under review. The figures are allowed to speak for
themselves.
R. J. EWART.
The rates for certain diseases in the following tables, are
compared with England and Wales, great and small Towns, and
London respectively.
