House Inspection.—As the result of inspections made on
complaint, or in consequence of the occurrence of infectious
disease, or for other reasons, two thousand six hundred and
thirty-three houses were visited. This figure shows an increase
of one hundred and eighty-five as compared with 1937.
At twenty houses, from which cases of notifiable
infectious disease had been reported, defective drains or
other insanitary conditions were found to exist. All these
were subsequently remedied under the supervision of the
officers of the Department.
