RESOLUTION
ON THE
REPORT ON THE LUNATIC ASYLUMS IN BURMA
FOR THE TRIENNIUM 1912-1914.
Extract from the Proceedings of the Government of Burma,—No. 9K, dated the 11th May 1915.
READ—.
The Report on the Lunatic Asylums in Burma for the triennium 1912—14.
RESOLUTION.—There has been no change in the total accommodation
provided for lunatics in the two Asylums of the Province, which remained at the
figure 656, representing space for 566 males and 90 females. As the maximum
population on any one night was only 620, it will be seen that there was no
overcrowding : the daily average for the whole period was in fact much lower, and
stood at 575.52. But though accommodation was adequate for the lunatic
population as a whole, some difficulty was experienced at Rangoon, where the
distribution was unfavourable to the European and female sections. This defect
will doubtless be remedied when the Asylum is transferred to the new site acquired
at Kokkaing.
2. A marked feature of the triennium under review is the high average rate
of mortality for Rangoon, which is returned as 19.48, as against 10.6 in the pre-
ceding period. The percentages for the individual years of the triennium are 1912,
31.29; 1913, 19.95 ; and 1914, 7.20. The steady improvement which is noticeable
with regard to the two latter years is mainly due to the zeal and energy with
which Major Sargent, the present Superintendent, has attacked the problem of
reducing the mortality since his appointment to the Asylum in May 1913.
Attention has been paid to the matter of diet ; the nursing system has been over-
hauled, and extra stipends given to certain recovered criminal insanes for tending
the sick. The scheme was started successfully on the female side, where it is
claimed that health conditions now compare favourably with those of any English
Asylum, and has been extended to one ward on the male side, whence it is hoped
gradually to extend it still further. The system of providing each patient on
admission with a medical history sheet and taking periodic observations of any
change in his condition has been introduced, with a view to varying his diet, treat-
ment or labour, as may be necessary. For over a year the workshops were closed,
and occupation found for the patients out of doors. The last expedient has
naturally contributed to the marked rise in the average cost per head, which in 1913
had reached the high figure of Rs. 215-14-0 and was only some two rupees less in

1914. The Lieutenant-Governor understands, however, that the authorities are
paying close attention to this question of finance. At Minbu the death-rate
percentage on the daily average strength has steadily improved, and reached the
low figure of 0.96 in 1914.
3. The new Indian Lunacy Act came into force during the triennium, and
rules were issued under it by the Local Government. To the officers who held
charge of the Asylums from time to time during the triennium, and to their
respective staffs, His Honour's acknowledgements are due. Sir Harvey Adamson
would also record his appreciation of the sympathy and encouragement with
which the Superintendents have received at the hands of the Inspector-General,
Colonel A. O. Evans.

appreciably good service and is considered to be a valuable and experienced asylum
officer. The good work of the Nursing staff has also been brought to notice
Dr. H. Wells was in charge of the Minbu Asylum from the 1st January 1912
to the 1st July 1913 and Dr. C. Martin held charge from the 21st July 1913 to
the 4th November 1914. Military Assistant Surgeon G. W. Vincent assumed
charge of the asylum from the 26th November 1914 and continues in the
appointment.
Dr. Isa Charan, officiating Civil Surgeon, Magwe, was placed in
collateral charge as a temporary measure during the intervals between the dates
given above. Sub-Assistant Surgeon Sheo Pershad has held the post of Deputy
Superintendent since the 22nd July 1913 and is reported to have performed his
duties satisfactorily and has exhibited exceptional interest in asylum work.
