    Report of Chief Health Inspector A. J. Douglas, Esq., M.D., Medical Health Officer. Dear Sir: I have the honor to submit herewith a report of the work accomplished during 1929 m this Division of the Health Department, as set forth in my own report, and those of the Housing and Smoke Inspectors, as follows:— ABATEMENT OF NUISANCES The table which follows sets forth in a concise form a summary of the work done by the inspectors of this division. The total number of Inspections and Re-inspections was 45,905 or 4,155 more than in 1928. There are, however, 11 district inspectors as against 10 in 1928, a new man having been appointed in June. This equals 4,173 inspections per man. Complaints numbered 2,364, or 334 less than in 1928. There has been a decrease in the number of complaints since 1921 of 938. Some 368 of the com¬ plaints were unfounded, or were rectified previous to receipt of the same.
