    Abstract:
    At the time of the Second Republic of Poland łódź was a city with a very unfavourable sanitary and hygienic situation. It resulted from the long-lasting municipal negligence, dating back to the I World War, which included bad living conditions of the working class, problems with sewers and canalisation, and other shortages associated with the sanitary and maintenance status. All these factors contributed to prevalence of infectious diseases and other health threads. Therefore, the Authorities of łódź were obliged to organise the Sanitary Section at the Department of Public Health. Its executive body, i.e. sanitary surveillances dealt with control of acute infectious diseases, sanitary inspection of living quarters, sites of selling and producing food articles, as well as food surveillance. In each sanitary surveillance a doctor was employed together with a secretary and sanitary inspector subordinated to him.
