It was in 1932 that the Governors began to plan a new X-Ray Department. Since then X-Ray work has more than doubled on the diagnostic side and every year the therapy work has increased. The plan for a new Department is now under con¬ sideration by the Ministry of Health. The Rehabilitation Department has made vast development and in spite of confined space, has done excellent work.$
