The care of the blind has been the subject of continued national interest and this has been rehected locally by increased niunicipal helj) and su})port to blind persons. *T% Thus we have lived throug’h years of great progress in the services which help to keep the people healthier and happier, or which attend to them when health fails. Now war has come and our efforts must be devoted to bringing it to a successful conclusion. Expansion of any public health services will be difficult, if not impossible, for some time. It is therefore satisfactory to be able to congratulate the Health Committee on having by now built up a series of sanitary and medical services which can be relied on to deal effectively with any public health problems likely to arise, and which, if maintained, will provide a solid foundation for further progress in health matters after the war. ^ In presenting the report, I wish to thank my colleagues of every rank, in all the various health services, for the fine efforts they have made to add to the effectiveness of the work of the Department. I should also like to express once more my appreciation of the way in which the Health Committee has set itself towards its tasks, which are based not merely upon the warmth of humane sentiment, but upon coldly calculated scientihc methods for the ])revention or treatment of disease.
