Wynne, Commissioner of Health, City of New York, 505 Pearl Street, New York, N.Y. My dear Commissioner: The accompanying Statistical Reference Hand Book has been assembled by the Committee on Neighborhood Health Development to assist in visualizing health districts for the proposed health centers of the City of New York in closer relation to the present distribution and trend of the population, and with a regard to the basic oonditions that have a greater bearing upon the likely demand for standard, public health activities, In the absence of an actual census of New York City, it has seemed best, even after noting for each district previous data of the Federal and the New York State censuses, first to formulate also estimates based on the latest figures of elementary school registration - experience having shown that the latter has a distinct and fairly constant relation, in larger areas, to,the total existing population. The school registration utilized includes both that of the public and parochial schools for elementary grades only. Exclusion, as far as possible, has been made of the high school registration, since the students are drawn from a wider territory, A further corroboration of the population estimates, based upon the present school registration, was also obtained by checking with the number of births being reported during 1929 in each health area of New York City. From these data the table showing the population trend in each district since the last census was finally prepared. Second, realizing that public and private health activities center mostly around maternal and infant welfare, the control of contagion -- most frequent among younger children -- and school medical service, it was deemed worth while to assemble the reports for these groups. Accordingly, for each district there have been noted carefully the births, corrected for residence of mothers, the infant deaths, the general mortality, the registration of new cases of tuberculosis and of other communicable diseases, as well as the elementary school population, Third, it should be stated that in addition to the statistical material assembled and brought up to date, there was also careful allocation upon appropriate health area waps of all of the elementary schools of New York City and, upon another series, existing hospitals and clinics. -2 - Finally, comparative rates of mortality, contagion or of birth figured from the latest reports permit seeing which districts show health conditions demanding more urgent attention. "Neighborbood health developiment, properly planned, should assure, it is believed, public health protection and health facilities available and accessible to every section of New York." The report was compiled by Godias J. Drolet and Marguerite P. Potter, who wish to acknowledge the great assistance received with original material from the Bureau of Records and the Bureau of Preventable Diseases of the Department of Health of the City of New York; the Bureau of Reference, Research and Statistics of the Board of Education; and the New York, Brooklyn and Queensboro tuberculosis and health associations.
