Not available (Japanese Decopalion)
29. Besides the 20,580 deaths registered, (a) 23 deaths were post-registered and (b) 4 deaths were re-registered under the Ordinance introduced in December 1947, which permits re- registration of deaths recorded in registers that were lost in the Japanese Occupation.
30. An attempt has been made this year to get an ap- proximation to a standardized death rate, based on a survey of over 40,000 squatters in a resettlement area. The figure is 17.3 per 1,000, using the British 1931 cenaus standard million as a basis.
Infant Mortality.
$1. There were 6,285 deaths of infants under one year, a mortality rate of 91.8 compared with 99.6 for 1950. Of the 6,285 deaths, 1,238 and 1,151 occupying the 1st and 2nd places were those in the 4 weeks to 3 months and 3 to 6 months age periods respectively.
32. As in previous years, the deaths in infants under one year provided almost one third of the total deaths occurring during the year.
