It is not unnatural that the expectant mother wants to have everything ready and prepared months beforehand, so that she may have this weight off her mind, the more so because she feels that if she is not going into Upney she must be busy making alternative arrangements. A suggestion which has occurred to me and which ...

4 * Registrar-General's figures. In comparing the figures from this table it should be remembered that many people are agreed that it will be impossible to reduce the infant mortality rate to less than 30 per 1,000 births, so that we should really use these figures comparatively by taking away 30 from each one. The res...

78 61. NEO-NATAL MORTALITY. Of the 61 children who died under the age of one year, no less than 31 of these died under the age of one monthβ€”i.e., 50.8 per cent.

The Barking figure is higher than the average for London, which is 25, and lower than that for County Boroughs, which is nearly 34. As I said last year, it is now generally believed that these neo-natal deaths can only be materially influenced by more intensive and efficient ante-natal work, and these 31 deaths show yo...

It is very difficult to estimate the population of Barking at any one date. Possibly the true figure is somewhere between the two estimates, but I have confidence that our figure is not far wrong.
