TO THE CHAIRMAN AND MEMBERS OF
THE LEYTON URBAN DISTRICT COUNCIL.
Mr. Chairman and Gentlemen,
I have the honour to submit my Annual Report on the health
and vital statistics of the district for the year 1917.
The same brevity as characterised the last two reports has
been adhered to.
The most important items of progress and change to which
attention is particularly directed are the establishment of a
scheme for Infant and Maternal Welfare, which includes three
clinics, and the closure of the Temporary Isolation Hospital.
The question of hospital accommodation for cases of Small
Pox has been under consideration and the Council have agreed
to a scheme for the provision of a joint hospital serving a certain
section of the County.
The health of the district during the year has been uniformly
good.
In conclusion, I desire to thank the Councillors and Officials
for their invariable courtesy and help.
I am,
Mr. Chairman and Gentlemen,
Your obedient Servant,
J. FRANCIS TAYLOR.
