    To the Lord Mayor, Aldermen and Councillors of the City of Plymouth. 1 have the honour to present to you my Annual Report for the year 1939. Upon instructions from the Ministry of Health, with a view to economy, this is an interim report. The information and statistics normally included in the Annual Report aie prepared and retained in the Department, and they will be available for the complete report at the termination of the war. Many public health projects have necessarily had to be deferred until happier times, and the organisation of the Depart¬ ment has been adapted to the needs of the national war effort. It is with pleasure that I take the opportunity of recording my appreciation of the loyal work of my staff, including the personnel of the Casualty Services. I am, My Lord Mayor, Ladies and Gentlemen, Your obedient Servant, Medical Officer of Health. Town Hall, Stonehouse, Plymouth. September, 1940.
