Health conditions in the Philippines, as
result of American sanitation methods.
are better than ever before. according to
the annual report of the insular bureau
of health made public by the bureau Of
insular affairs of the War Department.
This flattering state of affairs was &C
complished. the report declared. in spite
Of threatened invasion from other coun-
tries of epidemics of cholera, plague and
smallpox.
Among the government employees dur
ing the year the death rate was Asa per

ing IAN excellent idea of the expectancy
of life for normally healthy people in the
Philippine Islands,. The wild tribes OF
the archipelago. also are disclosing
a dwindling death rate and are taking
kindly to the work of sanitation.
Touching on the activity along life in
surance lines. the report declares that
the premiums policies are the same
as i'm the United States. This, in the
opinion of the insular health officials.
proves that insurance actuaries now are
convinced that the expectancy of life i'll

Complaint is made that the work is
hampered by a lack of funds. Much has
