The Police Force :-The total number of admittances to hospital was 1889 (1431 in 1923).

The average total of men employed in the Police Force was 1766 divided as follows :--

Europeans, ... 235

Indians, ... 504

Cantonese, ... 752

Wei-hai-wei contingent, ... 275

The Wei-hai-wei force from the point of health cannot be considered successful.

Their malaria returns are most unhappy as no less than 591 admissions were made from a force of 275 men. 143 patients were admitted on one occasion but 107 of the contingent were admitted on several occasions and accounted for 448 cases.

The readmissions were as follows:-

It thus appears that 250 out of 275 suffered from malaria. In the autumn the numbers became so excessive that Kennedy Town Hospital was opened to deal for the most part with the more chronic cases. This hospital was under the care of Dr. Clift. Their general health is not satisfactory as compared with Cantonese Police, but is slightly better than that of the Indians as is shewn in the following table :-
