F.. r. Smyth. commissioner of public
health of Bismarck, in a letter to At
torney General Andrew Miller. as a
member Of the board of health. de-
clares that the state board of health
has failed to make good; that the
death rate in the six leading cities
of the state is higher than the death
no excuse for the alleged failure to
properly enforce laws.
DR.. Smyth's letter follows:
Hon. Andrew Miller. President North
Dakota State Board of Health.
Dear Sir:--Permit me to call your
attention 10 the high mortality rate
prevailing in the principal cities OF
the state.
North Dakota having chiefly a ruraI
population and having no large cities
or manufacturing centers, should have
a very low death rate. The following
table will show thai the six largest
cities have a higher death rate thar
those of the adjoining states of Min
nesota and Montana:
Average Death Rate in the Six I4arg.
est Cities in Minnesota, North Da-
kota and Montana. Year 1910.
Death rate per thousand population
Minnesota. 1926: North Dakota, 15.S;
Montana, 14.S.
This shows that if the death rat
was as low in the North Dakota cite:
as in those of Minnesota hat 13;
lives a year would be saved. in the
former. No wanyone at all acquaint.
I'd with public health work know:
that Minnesota, with her large cities
and manufacturing establishments
and Montana with her mining indus
tries would naturally have a higher
death ate than North Dakota.
Fail to Enforce Law.
The only reason known to the writ.
err for the high death rate of this
state. is the absolute failure of the
state board of health to appreciate the
importance of the duties devolving up
on it NJ its neglect to enforce the
health laws of the state.
North Dakota mas had a model vita
statistics law for the past six years
but it has never been enforced. Min.
nesota and Montana have had the
same law for the past four years and
have enforced it.
State officials have claimed tina,
there are no funds to enforce the Law

in this state. Even if this was true 1t
would be no excuse for failing to en-
force the law.
Citizens when hauled into court for
failing to obey the, laws, are not ex-
cused on the grounds that they could
not afford to comply with them and
public officials should be held to a
s%tricter obedience to the laws they
have taken an oath to enforce than
private citizens.
Says Funds Were Expended.
However. 1t is not the case that
there are no funds to enforce the law.
More money has been spent. during
the past six years, in publishing In
correct ana misleading returns Of
births and deaths in the state than
would have served to obtain accurate
returns. The different counties
throughout the state have been re-
uuired to pay out thousands of dollars
annually. for fees to local registrars,
under a law that the state officials
declare inoperable.
The vital statistics law (Chap. 27o.
Session Laws of 1900 requires the
state board of health to establish a
bureau of vital statistics at the state
capitol. This specific provision has
never been complied with. although
boards created since the vital statistics
ldW WdS lttosco udNt pSSh Pto
with offices at the capitol.
If the state board of health desires
to comply with the law the statistics
can be collected. reviewed and tabulat-
ed at the state capitol for the money
that is now being spent in collecting
illegal certificates.
The death rate of our principal cit
les which, for the past six years. has
been appa!lingly high appears to be
increasing and in the bulletin issued
by the state board of health for June,
1913. one city is credited with enough
deaths, in the month of May, to equal
an annual death rate of PIP per thou
sand.
There are other measures that could
be adopted by the state board Of
health to preserve the health of the
people and lower the death rate but
none are so important as enforcing
the vital statistics law.
Yours respectfully,
F. r. Smyth.
Commissioner Of Public Health, Bis
marck.
