786 PROCEEDINGS OF SECTION H. 



for various reasons : its sewerage is the largest unresolved 

 problem of the kind in our midst, and consequently the most 

 important from a hygienic point of view. Tliough I suppose 

 the authorities here are too far committed to re-open the 

 consideration o the matter, that should not prevent its dis- 

 cussion or take it out of the sphere of the criticism of the 

 Hygienic Section of this Association. Again, the estimates 

 for what is proposed to be done are all ready to hand, and it 

 was only because this was the case that I could find time to 

 consider them. There are no such figures available for 

 Hobart. But I have not tried by speaking of Melbourne 

 to set forth in detail what I think should l)e done here. 1 

 think that though there are broad principles that are appli- 

 cable to all seaside cities, the manner in which they should be 

 applied to each one of them ought only to be determined 

 after a complete examination of each one.
