Personally I think that a medical officer of health for the City should be appointed by Government with full powers to carry out proper work. If a responsible Medical officer was armed with sufficient power to enable him to get to work rapidly on anything that turned up it would be a much better state of matters than at present prevails.

The question of dealing with the Tung "Wah Hospital must now be seriously considered. I cannot denounce this hotbed of medical and Sanitary vice in sufficiently strong terms. I venture to say that if the question of allowing this to remain was to be submitted to the Public Health authorities at Home they would order its immediate abolition.
