X.—How far disease has increased or decreased amongst the women ; to what extent it has become less virulent ;
its nature as compared with that amongst the men ; is there any regulation between the two ? how far the
admissions amongst the women are due to non-venereal affections or to detention of women during the
monthly period.
The following table shows the admissions into the lock-hospital during the
year 1879 :—

In the civil dispensary and Native detail hospital there was an increase in
the number of admissions for venereal complaints, there being 226 in 1878 against
244 in 1879.

XI.—How far dhaies are employed, and with what results.
The cantonment police look after the registered prostitutes, and, under the
direction of the Cantonment Magistrate, see that the provisions of the Contagious
Diseases Act are enforced.
X I I . — A n y i n f o r m a t i o n o n o t h e r m a t t e r s o r s u g g e s t i o n s f o r i m p r o v e m e n t o f t h e r u l e s .
Judging from the healthy condition of both European and Native troops, as
far as contagious diseases are concerned, the Contagious Diseases Act seems to
have produced good results during the year.
The amount of venereal disease shown as treated in the municipal dispen-
sary and Native detail hospital is larger than last year ; but the total number
of cases treated for all diseases was also larger than in the preceding year.
It is also believed that the municipal dispensary is gaining an increasing
reputation for the treatment of not only of syphilitic but other diseases amongst
the inhabitants of the adjoining hills and the Upper Burmans.

REPORT
ON THE
LOCK-HOSPITALS, BRITISH BURMA,
FOR THE YEAR 1880.
RANGOON : PRINTED AT THE GOVERNMENT PRESS, 1881.
RESOLUTION
ON THE
REPORT ON LOCK-HOSPITALS
IN
BRITISH BURMA
FOR THE YEAR 1880.
Extract from the Proceedings of the Chief Commissioner, British Burma, in the General Department,—
No, 22M, dated the 2nd May 1881.
READ—
Annual Reports on the working of the several Lock-hospitals in the province of British Burma for
the year 1880.
Read also—
The Review on the working of the Lock-hospitals by the Deputy Surgeon-General, British Burma
Division.
RESOLUTION.—There are six lock-hospitals in British Burma. At Rangoon,
Thayet-myo, and Toungoo, where British troops are stationed, the lock-hospitals
are worked under the Cantonment rules, while at the seaport towns of Moulmein,
Akyab, and Bassein, where there are no British troops, the Contagious Diseases
Act is in force. This Act was also enforced at Prome during the early part of the
year, but, on the recommendation of the Deputy Commissioner and the Deputy
Surgeon-General, the lock-hospital at that station was closed in August with the
sanction of the Government of India. The law relating to contagious diseases is
therefore in force now only at the large military stations and the chief seaport
towns.
2. The statistics of venereal diseases contracted by the British soldiers at
Rangoon, Thayet-myo, and Toungoo in 1879 and in 1880 are as follows :—

The rate per mille for the whole of Burma compares favourably with the statistics
of other provinces. The Native troops enjoyed a remarkable immunity from
disease. There were 24 cases at Rangoon, four at Moulmein, three at Toungoo,
( 4 )
Rs. 26,547, or about Rs. 39 for each registered woman. The fines inflicted upon
the women amounted to Rs. 1,592. No fees were levied.
11. In the month of April a case was brought to the notice of the Chief
Commissioner in which two women were convicted at Akyab of obtaining posses
sion and disposing of a minor for purposes of prostitution. It appeared from the
evidence that the unfortunate child who formed the subject of the case had been
brought over from India and forced against her will to lead the life of a prostitute ;
and though at the periodical examinations it was seen that she was immature,
the medical officer had not called attention to the case. At the suggestion of the
Judicial Commissioner an additional rule has now been added to the lock-hospital
rules requiring brothel-keepers to report monthly to the Magistrate the ages of all
the women under their control, and Civil Surgeons have been directed to report
immediately to the Magistrate any case of a girl under 16 holding a certificate
and attending at the lock-hospital. Registering officers have been required to
satisfy themselves that the girls to whom they grant certificates are over 16
years of age, and precautions have been taken to prevent personation. Enquiries
have been set on foot at Rangoon, Moulmein, Akyab, and Bassein as to the exist
ence of a traffic in girls between Burma and India. Hitherto no evidence of any
such traffic has been forthcoming, but it behoves Magistrates and police officers
to be on the alert for the suppression of such a trade should it arise.

REVIEW
ON THE
REPORTS ON LOCK-HOSPITALS
IN
BRITISH BURMA
FOR THE YEAR 1880.
From J. M. JOSEPH, Esq., M.D., Deputy Surgeon-General, British Burma Division, to the Officiating
Secretary to the Chief Commissioner, British Burma,—No. 243C., dated the 6th April 1881.
I HAVE the honour to submit a review on the individual reports on lock-
hospitals in British Burma for the year .1880.
There are at present six lock-hospitals in British Burma, -viz., at Rangoon,
Thayet-myo, Toungoo, Akyab, Bassein, and Moulmein.
The hospital at Prome was closed on the 31st August 1880 by order of Gov
ernment. The hospitals at Rangoon, Thayet-myo, and Toungoo are worked under
the Cantonment Rules, and the remaining ones at Akyab, Bassein, and Moulmein
under Act XIV of 1868.
I. —The nature and extent of the hospital accommodation, whether it is suitable, and whether there has
been any change in it during the year.
No changes have been made in the Rangoon Hospital in regard to accommo
dation, which is not sufficient ; it is intended only for 71 patients, whereas
the daily average sick for the past year has been 102 . 59 ; consequently there has
been some overcrowding. The basement floor beneath the hospital has been
asphalted, which is a great improvement, as it was formerly in a very filthy con
dition. The patients are now able to stay on the basement floor during the day,
instead of being in the wards.
Drains are about to be constructed, and, when these are completed, the sani
tary condition of the hospital compound will be very greatly improved.
The accommodation of the remaining five hospitals has been sufficient to meet
the requirements of the sick. No additions or alterations have been made in
them. The Akyab Hospital is a very old building, and requires repairing.
The new hospital at Moulmein, which was sanctioned last year, has not been
constructed. The old hospital has however been kept in repair, and answers the
purpose fairly well.
II.—Any changes in the medical charge of the lock-hospitals during the year.
The following changes have taken place in the medical charge of the under
mentioned lock-hospitals :-
Rangoon.—Surgeon G. A. Dundas was in charge of the hospital from the
1st January to the 25th April, and Surgeon-Major H. Johnstone, M.D., has been in
charge from the 26th April 1880.
Thayet-myo.—Surgeon O. Baker was in charge of the hospital from the
1st January to the 26th April, Assistant Surgeon .Odentoolah from the 27th April
to the 26th May, and Assistant Surgeon Chowdry has been in charge from the
27th May 1880.
Bassein.—First Class Assistant Apothecary R. S. Dawson was in charge from
the 1st January to the 7th May, and Surgeon O. Baker from the 8th May 1880.
Prome.—Surgeon S. H. Dantra was in charge from the 1st January to the
21st April, Second Class Hospital Assistant Mahomed Abdool Kurreem was in
( 2 )
charge from the 22nd April to the 16th May, and First Class Assistant Apothe-
cary R. S. Dawson from the 17th May to the 31st August 1880, on which date
the hospital was closed by order of Government.
III.—The extent of venereal disease among European troops as shown by the weekly returns.
The following table, prepared from the statements of the Medical Officers in
charge of the various European regiments, accurately shows to what extent the
European troops were affected with venereal disease :—

IV.—Whether a Cantonment Sub-Committee for exercising special supervision over the rules has exist
ed throughout the year, &c.
Rangoon.—No Cantonment Sub-Committee. The Town Magistrate is respon
sible for the working of the rules.
Thayet-myo.— No Sub-Committee. The Cantonment Magistrate and the Civil
Surgeon are chiefly concerned in the administration of the Act. Matters beyond
their control are referred to the General Committee at their ordinary monthly
meetings.
Toungoo.—No Cantonment Sub-Committee. The Cantonment Magistrate,
the Superintendent of Police, and the Civil Surgeon practically act as the Sub-
Committee.
At Akyab, Bassein, and Moulmein, the Deputy Commissioners and Town
Magistrates supervise the working of the rules.
V.—What special measures have been taken for the control of prostitution, and especially for preventing the
dangers arising from unlicensed prostitutes frequenting the lines.
The measures adopted for the control of prostitution have been such as are
authorised by the Acts, but these however, I think, from want of sufficient detec

of venereal disease. The police ought to exercise greater vigilance, and see that all women.
soliciting clandestine prostitution are placed on the register.
The hospital is an old building and needs repairing ; it is fairly well suited for a lock-
hospital. There is plenty of accommodation. The wards
and inspection-room are clean and well ventilated. The
hospital bedding consists of a few old mattrasses, which,
I am informed, are seldom used by the patients. The patients bring their own bedding and
clothing, and prefer sleeping on the floor. The hospital diets are sufficient and good.
The water-supply is good and abundant. The latrine arrangements are satisfactory.
The medicines, appliances, and instruments in excellent state of preservation, and sufficient
to meet all requirements. The hospital records are in good condition and written up to
date. There are only four patients at present in hospital. To-day being an inspection
day of the women, I had the opportunity of being present ; the inspections were conducted
satisfactorily. There are only 60 women on the register, a small number for so large a
town as Akyab. I am afraid there is a great deal of prostitution clandestinely carried on
which the police ought to take notice of, and every woman found clandestinely soliciting
prostitution should be at once placed on the register.
Akyab.— Date of inspection, 18th
December 1880.
