It is on this figure that the rates of the Borough are calculated and so, when any comparison of figures in this report is made with those of the past 17 years, this change of practice must be allowed for.

The deaths from tuberculosis numbered 154 (168 in 1931).

Disinfestation is a public health problem of the greatest importance at the present day in view of the widespread prevalence of the pest and its effect upon the health and comfort of the individual. There is no actual proof that it spreads disease, at any rate in this country, but it irritates individuals in greater or...

In 1885 the Cremation Society permitted cremation at Woking and from that time cremation has steadily grown in this country. There are now 24 crematoria, 14 of which belong to municipalities.

Cremation is easily arranged for; it is not expensive; it prejudices in no way public health, and it avoids the necessity of purchasing expensive sites for cemeteries.
