    ANNUAL REPORT FOR YEAR 1951. Mr. Chairman, Ladies and Gentlemen, I herewith present my Annual Report for the year 1951. The vital statistics show a slight improvement from the previous year. This improvement is very considerable im- pressed in terms of say “X” per 1,000, but in actual numbers the difference is not so great. The infantile death rate has fallen from 52‘8 per 1,000 live births to 17'96. The figures are 1950—153 births with 8 deaths of infants under 1 year; 1951—167 births with 3 deaths of infants under 1 year. It is pleasing to note also that this year again there have been no maternal deaths. I am. Your obedient servant, it. ^Xakam, Medical Officer of Health
