OFFICE OF THE SANITARY COMMISSIONER,
MADRAS, 29th September 1920.
From
THE HON' BLE MAJOR-GENERAL G. G. GIFFARD, C.S.I., K.H.S., I.M.S.,
Surgeon-General with the Government of Madras (Sanitary),.
To
THE SECRETARY TO GOVERNMENT,
LOCAL AND MUNICIPAL DEPARTMENT.
SIR,
I have the honour to submit the Report on Vaccination in the Madras
Presidency for 1919-20.
2 As required in G.O. No. 4999-1 L., dated 7th October 1919, the report is
for the three years ending 1919-20.
3. Dr. Matthew continued to hold charge of the Central and Northern Ranges
from September 1914 when Captain (now Major) Quirke, I.M.S., proceeded on
Military duty up to the end of November 1919 but as this arrangement could not
be continued any longer, Dr. Adiseshan, the Health Officer, Madura Municipality,
was appointed as a Deputy'Sanitary Commissioner and posted to the Northern
Range in December 1919 thus bringing up the full compliment of three Deputy
Sanitary Commissioners sanctioned for the Presidency. This number having
been found inadequate the question of employing additional Deputy Sanitary
Commissioners was considered during the year and provision has been made for
employing three more officers. Dr. Jesudoss was in charge of the Southern
Range throughout the year 1919-20.
4. The inspection work of the three Deputy Sanitary Commissioners was as
follows :—
Dr. Matthew made a routine sanitary inspection of the Municipalities of
Nandyal, Villupuram, Walajapet, Cuddapah and Proddatūr and submitted
written reports thereon ; the rural areas of nine districts comprising 210 villages in
the two ranges of which he was in charge were inspected for examining the
condition of vaccination. Special visits under the orders of the Sanitary Commis
sioner were also paid to Hospet for the inspection of malaria conditions and
vaccination, Chittoor for vaccination, Erode and the adjoining villages for the
inspection of the results of certain experimental vaccination ordered by the
Sanitary Commissioner ; the villages of Balapalli and Mamandur to advise as to
the removal of these villages to a healthier site; the salt factory of Voyalur in
the Chingleput district with reference to malaria; Bhommanagadda in the
Chittoor district to advise sanitary measures necessary for the criminal settlement
there. He proceeded also to Anantapur to examine and issue certificates to a
class of temporary Sanitary Inspectors trained by the District Medical and
Sanitary Officer for plague duty.
Dr. Jesudoss inspected sanitation and vaccination in 16 Municipalities and
the condition of vaccination.in 298 villages in seven districts verifying 6,456 cases.
He also inspected Pollachi and Udamalpet in the Coimbatore district for selection
of site for the nightsoil depot; Attakattai and Mount Stuart in the Coimbatore
2
district and Cumbum valley in the Madura district for malaria; Kollegal for the
inspection of proposals submitted by the District Board for the relief of conges
tion and Kakkakulam and Anaikulam in the Tanjore district for inspection of
waters stocked with larvicidal fish.
Dr. Adisesha Ayyar during the three months he held charge of Northern
Range inspected sanitation and vaccination in three Municipalities and vaccination
in 95 villages in two districts and verified 2,831 cases. He attended the Public
Health Exhibition at Madras and the Maternity and Infant "Welfare Exhibition at
Delhi in February 1920.
5. The following table contrasts the staff employed during the last three

During the year under report two additional vaccination ranges Parlā-
kimedi and Rayadrug in the Ganjām and Bellary districts respectively were
sanctioned.
6. The new scheme of vaccination sanctioned in G.O. No. 963 L., dated 4th
July 1917, was in force during the year and rules for working the scheme were
issued in G.O. No. 760 L., dated 18th June 1919. It is too soon to pronounce
an opinion as to the efficacy or otherwise of the scheme. A circular was issued
to all Collectors inviting attention to the need for enforcing the rules and every
effort was made by the Deputy Sanitary Commissioners during their inspection to
note defects in the practical working of the scheme and to rectify them. All
Collectors were also requested to offer their opinion on the scheme and to suggest
remedies for defects noticed by them but complete replies from them were not
received before the year closed. A separate report will be submitted in due
course on the working of the scheme. A slight improvement in quantity and
quality is noticeable in primary and secondary vaccination when compared with
the previous year.
I agree with the opinion of the Deputy Sanitary Commissioners that to
secure improvement in the working of the scheme, the general introduction of
compulsory vaccination in all districts is very essential.

died, five were punished, two with dismissal and three with reduction for submis-
sion of false diaries and serious irregularities in their work, one was fined and one
warned for carelessness and unsatisfactory work.

been verified and brought up to date.

recent rulings on the subject.
