Based on figures obtained from

sumptives is employed, it is esti-
mated that for every death from con-

which there are on an average 200.
900 annually, there are constantly
more than five living cases, making
at least 100000 in all. OF these mil
lion living cases. 1t is estimated that
the health authorities have records OF
not more than 100000 to 10000. OIL

corded, no hospital, home or dis
pensary care is provided. Practically
nothing can be done to control the

ported cases.
