Annual Report of
The Medical Officer of Health
for 1939
Public Health Department,
2, Shalston Villas,
Surbiton.
December, 1940.
To the Mayor, Aldermen and Councillors of the
Borough of Surbiton.
Ladies and Gentlemen,
I am submitting" to the Council my eighteenth
Annual Report concerning the health of the
Borough of Surbiton.
Owing to the intervention of the war it is
intended to give only the barest facts.
I drew the attention of the Council to the
question of disposing of house refuse, as a fortnightly
collection was undesirable, and although,
as far as I know, a recommendation to revert back
to a weekly one was accepted, a fortnightly collection
still holds.
I am,
Ladies and Gentlemen,
Your obedient Servant,
NEVILLE H. LINZEE,
Medical Officer of Health.
