RANGOON:
J. M. JOSEPH, M. D.,
The 30th June 1879.
Deputy Surgeon-General, British Burma Division.
( 2 )
3.—The number of prostitutes admitted during the year is 151, against 116 that of
previous year; and cured 148, against 113. This shews a decided increase in the number of
prostitutes treated and cured in this hospital during the year; and another noticeable fact
is that several prostitutes when admitted were subject to the worst type of syphilis and
shanker, but they slowly recovered on account of treatment and none died. This reflects
some credit on Hospital Assistants Busheer-ood-deen and Aman-ool Huq.
4.—In the paddy season, say for four months, there remain about 12 ships daily in this
port, and each ship contains an average about 20 sailors, i. e., about 240 sailors remain
in the port and frequents the bazaar, but very few are admitted in the Akyab General
Seamen's Hospital for venereal diseases; but these few sailors, I suspect, contracted the
disease by frequenting the Burmese quarters, where they are tempted to go by dalâls in
hope of obtaining more money as their commission from the Burmese prostitutes. These
women remain in various localities of the town, and are very privately going on with the
business of prostitutes, but cannot be caught by police on account of one of the dalâls
appearing before the court, deposing on oath that the woman was kept by him, and several
other dalâls may appear as his witness to vouch for the truthfulness of his statement.
5.—In short, the working of this lock-hospital is very satisfactory, as can be seen by the
attached statements Nos. 1, 2, and. 3; but there is one defect which I think has been
never reported by my predecessors, i. e., the bedding, which never has been supplied. to the
lock-hospital. There ought at least to be 15 cots with mattrasses, pillows, and sufficient
bed-sheets supplied. I found all prostitutes retained in the hospital for treatment have
to sleep on the hard plank-floor of the ward, and some of them with scarcely any clothes to
cover themselves. I think in the cold season they suffer much from cold, and consequently
their health becomes impaired.

A set of rules, prescribing a rational way of keeping registers and making
out returns, would seem to be desirable.
It is also recommended that a European or East Indian medical assistant
should replace the native assistant who is resident at the hospital. The Ma-
gistrate states :—
“ The women, particularly the Burmese, have always shewn the greatest dis-
like to natives of India as medical attendants. The complaints against them
have been numerous, and Dr. Griffith, who took great pains in his management
of the institution when he was in charge, agreed with me in this opinion, and
assured me that the native assistants were of little or of no use to him, and that
he was obliged himself to conduct all examinations, rather than cause general
dissatisfaction and increase the number of absentees.”
The present Civil Surgeon in charge of the lock-hospital, however, does not
appear to be of the same opinion with regard to his subordinates, as he praises
them for the way in which they have discharged their duties.
6. The numbers of women reported to the Magistrate for various offences
under the lock-hospital laws, and the numbers punished, during the last year,
were as follows :—

the increase in the number of women on the register, the figures at other stations
generally
shew an increase.

On only two occasions in the last seven years have there been so few admissions.
Under head of secondary syphilis the decrease is especially marked, there being only four
admissions this year, against 46 last year : this would seem to point to a mild infection of
the poison in its primary form, or else to increased physical stamina on the part of the
men of the 89th Regiment, compared with the 21st which was quartered here last year,
rendering subsequent constitutional effects less likely to occur amongst those infected.
Under primary syphilis there has also been a marked dimunution,—49 this year, against 77
last year. Gonorrhœa shews a slight increase,—43, against 36. It is probable that a con-
siderable portion of this diminution in venereal is due to the fact that, for a considerable
portion of the year, the military were . not allowed into the town during the prevalence of
cholera.
Appended is a statement of the amount of venereal which has existed in the 24th
Native Infantry Regiment during the year :—

Weekly returns have been submitted by both the Principal Medical Officer, British
Troops, and by the Medical Officer in charge of the 24th M. N. I., shewing the amount of
syphilis existing amongst troops ; and it is from these returns that the above statements
have been made.
Looking at the returns of venereal amongst both European and Native troops, the
results cannot be considered otherwise than satisfactory.
Below is a comparison of the amount which has existed amongst the former as com-
pared with past years :—
Average strength.

VI.—Whether a Cantonment Sub-Committee for exercising special supervision over the rules has existed
throughout the year.
There is no Cantonment Sub-Committee for exercising supervision over the rules.
The Town Magistrate is responsible for the working of the rules, while the Medical Officer
is in charge of the hospital.
V.—What special measures have been taken for the control of prostitution, and especially for preventing the
danger arising from unlicensed prostitution.
The measures authorized by the Act have been adopted for the repression of clandes-
tine prostitution. The following is a statement of the arrests made by the police for practis-
( 11 )
I would point out further that the fixed establishment is also much below that of
other 1st class lock-hospitals. Below are those of Madras and Rangoon compared : it will
be seen that, although the last-mentioned hospital is the larger of the two, it has not an
establishment equal to that of the former.

During the year there have been 21 escapes. These. women in all cases escape by night,
aided by friends who bring ladders with which they scale the walls ; there is no one to pre-
vent it, as the durwan, who has work to do all day, cannot be held responsible for every
thing that occurs during the night, and, unless he was perpetually walking all round the
hospital, he could not prevent these escapes. A short while ago a man was seized by the
durwan, who, with others, was assisting in the escape of some women : the man was how-
ever immediately rescured by some 50 of his companions, who poured from the neigh-
bouring slums and at the same time greatly ill-treated the durwan. A night-watchman
was recommended in last year's report as a remedy against these escapes ; and I cannot see
how they can be averted without one.
