Abstract
THE writer of the paragraph upon Drainage and Malaria in the “Notes” of NATURE for September 15, 1910, is evidently unaware that the facts as they relate to Klang and Port Swettenham, the two stations mentioned, lend themselves to a quite different interpretation from that put forward. The idea conveyed by the paragraph referred to is that two intensely malarious places have been freed from malaria by drainage alone, with a saving of more than 400 lives per annum.
