MATERNAL MORTALITY
FACILITIES FOR RESEARCH NEEDED REMEDY IN PREVENTION Greater facilities should be provided in New Zealand for maternity work, stated Dr. W. Gilmour, pathologist of the Auckland Hospital, who ha? just returned from abroad. “We have the material and the opportunities here,” he says. Maternal mortality was exercising the interest of bacteriologists in England. The real source of infection still remained somewhat obscure, and the real remedy lay in prevention. “Research in this direction should meet with success,” he added. “The disease is definitely known to be a microbk one, and its prevention should present no insuperable difficulties.”
