HC Deb 14 February 1927 vol 202 c583W
Mr. C. P. WILLIAMS

asked the Secretary of State for the Colonies what steps are being taken to deal with the question of infant mortality in Dar-es-Salaam?

Mr. AMERY

I would refer the hon. Member to paragraph 40 of the Report to the Council of the League of Nations, published last year (Colonial No. 18), on the administration of Tanganyika territory for 1925. Since then considerable additions have been made to the sanitary staff, and the training of native assistants and nurses is snaking rapid progress.
