dealing of course with war potentialities as
well as with actual occurrences, has continued
to call for constant attention and review from
the public health points of view (food, water,
sanitation, etc.).
I cannot complete this report, the
record of a very busy year, without respectfully
acknowledging my debt to the staff of
the Department. The various sections - one
and all - have been an efficient and loyal
team. The personnel to-day is almost eight
times in number the personnel immediately
before the war, and still the fullest coordination
has been maintained throughout all
the services. It is my pleasant duty also
to bring to the notice of the Council the
valuable work of the Voluntary Helpers in the
Clinics.
I have the honour to be, Mr. Mayor,
Ladies and Gentlemen,
Your obedient Servant,
A.G. MORISON.
Medical Officer of Health.
