PHYSICIAN'S REPORT
To the Board of Public Welfare:
During the past year there has been no unusual amount of illness among the beneficiaries of your de- partment. The number of sick calls-240-was about the same as in the previous year. Those living at the In- firmary have been singularly free from acute diseases al- though most of them require care for various conditions and infirmities which are more or less incapacitating. There are few able-bodied persons on the welfare list at this time.
I believe there is an opportunity to care for these persons and others too perhaps, invalids or semi-invalids, by adding a hospital ward to the Infirmary. The plan would make it possible to give good care and at the same time save many hospital bills and lighten the burden of the already crowded Milford Hospital.
