    Public Health Department, Town Hall Chambers, King Street, Wakefield. 12th December, 1939. A To the Mayor, Aldermen and Councillors of the City of Wakefield. Mr. Mayor, Ladies and Gentlemen, I beg to submit my Report for the year i938 and I regret that it has not been possible to deal with it until now. Time has not permitted me to give detailed consideration to the statistical tables from the point of view of deducing the trend of the Department's work from them. I should like to thank all the members of my Staff for their whole-hearted co-operation during the year, which has been a difficult one in many respects. They have given ungrudgingly of their time to keep alive a positive outlook in circumstances I seriously hampering real advance. In compiling this Report I have had very valuable assistance s from Dr. Stevenson, Dr. Eeles, Mr. Roberts, who is the Senior t Sanitary Inspector, Mr. Shaw my Chief Clerk and Mr. Birdsall, a Statistical Clerk. The last-mentioned joined the Department sf after the close of 1938. Although the afore-mentioned are specially || noted, I am indeb-ted to every member of the Staff, who has-4 carried out his or her work with zeal and initiative making | possible the programme of Public Health work recorded. I am, Yours faithfully, FRANK ALLARDICE, $ Medical Officer of Health.
