out this survey and the innumerable people who worked so
hard on the organisation of the campaign. For a fuller account
of the latter, reference is made to the report issued
by the Director of the South-East London Mass X-Ray
Service from the New Cross General Hospital, S.E.14.
The work of the Bexley, Erith and Crayford Home
Safety Committee continued during the year and, with the
grant now being received from the Local Health Authority,
has increased in scope. However, this is time-consuming
work and must, at present, be fitted into the general work of
the Health Department. This makes a really sustained effort
a matter of some difficulty. It may be that the appointment
of a part-time Home Safety Organiser for the three areas
covered by the Committee would be one way of solving the
difficulty.
In conclusion I wish to thank the Chairman and Members
of the Health Committee for their support and encouragement
and the Chief Public Health Inspector, Chief
Clerk and all members of the Health Department for the
good work which has been done during the year.
I am,
Your obedient servant,
JOHN LANDON
Medical Officer of Health.
