44. Births. The births registered as having occurred in the Colony were:

Chinese Non-Chinese TOTAL 8,973 336 9,309

45. Deaths. The deaths among the civilian population

Chinese Non-Chinese TOTAL 14,553 182 14,735

The crude death rate for the year for the total population was 15.06, that for Chinese was 15.14, that for non-Chinese 11.20.

46. The following table gives the deaths from the principal diseases causing deaths:-

No. Percentage of total deaths. Pulmonary Tuberculosis 4,411 30. Tuberculosis other than pulmonary 806 5.5 Broncho-pneumonia 1,651 11.2 Bronchitis 1,396 8.2 (corrected to 9.5, but keeping original) 8.2 -> 9.5 is not allowed Pneumonia 898 6. Beri beri 667 4.5 Malaria 295 2. Diarrhoea (infantile) 395 2.8 Diarrhoea 809 5.5 Dysentery 291 2. Heart Disease and Heart Failure 280 1.9

Deaths from notifiable diseases.

No. Percentage. Small-pox 304 2.07 Enteric 74 0.5 Diphtheria 27 0.18 Cerebro Spinal Fever 16 0.10 Plague 2 0.014

47. The number of Deaths under one year was:-

Chinese Non-Chinese TOTAL 4,338 21 4,359

If the figure for Births notified represented the total births in the Colony the infantile mortality figure would be 458. This figure is obviously much too great but there can be no doubt that the true rate is a high one.
