In November, 1919, the Ministry of Health arranged with
the Sugar Distribution Branch of the Ministry of Food for an
extra ration of sugar of 4 ozs. per week per child to be given on
the certificate of
supply of sugar. Arrangements were made for this to be
carried out through the various Welfare Centres, and in this way
during the year 1920, 557½ lbs. of sugar were supplied through
the Centres.
