One can only hope, as the Western City Idea seems destined to spread its evils all over the world, that, in new areas such as Kowloon, Town-planning Authorities will recognise that Health is ultimately of more economical importance than the commercial value of land or the immediate interests of property owners and merchants. When this is established policy, we can talk of Progress.

Although Kowloon is divided into Health districts also, it has been the custom to record it as one area.

It can, however, no longer be treated as a kind of suburb. Very soon it will require a more independent administration and, already, there are problems peculiar to the Peninsula,

Below is a group-list, in descending order of frequency, of the principal registered Causes of Death in the Colony, for the year 1928:-

1. Diseases of the Lungs
2. Tuberculosis (all forms)
3. Special Diseases of Infancy
4. Senility (other causes unstated)
5. Enteritis (all non-specific forms over 1 year)
6. Beri-Beri
7. Undiagnosed (decomposed bodies, etc.)
8. Violent deaths (External causes)
9. Epidemic diseases (such as Small-pox)
10. Malaria
11. Dysentery (all forms)
12. Syphilis, Heart disease, Nephritis
