DEFENSE Of SCIENCE
IN u|FE-SAWNG WORK
Health Officer Woodward Makes Re-
ply to Statement Attributed
to Judge Pugh.
Alleges Big Improvement in Death
Rate in the District
Since 1900.

Disagreeing with statements attrib-
uted to Judge Pugh. who. in a recent
police court decision. is said to have
expressed the opinion that there is too
much science and that more people are
dying now than formerly, District
Health Officer William c. Woodward
today called attention to the fact that
the death rate in the District of CO.
lumbia has shown big improvement
since 1900. He asserts that science
during the last thirteen years has been
responsible for the saving of 1922
lives in the District of Columbia alone.
rs there too much science these days?
Are more people dying than did some
years ago." questions the health officer.
Comparative Statement.
From pulmonary tuberculosis there
occurred in 1900 $50 deaths. or at the
rate Of 2.S per thousand per annum Of
the entire population. Last year the
number of death sfrom tuberculosis was
617 and the death rate 10. Had the
same death rate prevailed last year AS
prevailed In 1900 there would have
been 9Ss deaths. The lives saved from
pulmonary tuberculosis alone amount
ed, therefore, last year to 312.
Typhoid fever killed 21S persons in
1900. or at the rate of OLA per thousand
per annum. Last year this disease
killed but 81 persons, equivalent to a
rate Of DIG. Had the death rate for
1900 prevailed last year 261 deaths
would have occurred. From typhoid
fever alone there was saving last
year Of 206 lives.
In 1900 1,344 children died before
completing the first year of life, or at
the rate of 40 per thousand of the en-
tire population. Last year only 1928
died. or at the rate of 2.3 per thou

Similar In Other Diseases.
Similar reductions might be cited
with respect to deaths from other dis
eases. It is true, Of course, that an
increased death rate with respect to
some diseases. notably those over which
the individual alone has almost sole
control and with respect to which pub
lie authority can do little or nothing
such, for instance, as Brtght's disease
life that has resulted from the lessen
ing prevalence and severity and the
more skillful treatment with respect
to the diseases named and with respect
to others not enumerated. yet it Is en-
phatically not true that more persons

bered 6.05s. In other words. out Of every

view Of the increased population, to q
death rate of but IT. Had the same
Hsea in 1895 there Moulg have
1928 deaths. The fact that scientists got
together and helped frame legislation
for the protection of public health seems.
therefore, to have been responsible in
the year 1913 for the saving of 1,272
lives, even if comparison be made with
SO recent period aSr1900.
IF comparison had been instituted
with respect to an earlier year the re-
corded saving Of life would have beer
greater. If the results Of legislation
framed with the aid of scientists may
be taken as a guide there is apparently
need for more such legislation rather
than for less"

COMMIT TEE TAKES Up
TENTATIVE MEASURE:
Bill to Prohibit Interlocking
Directorates Is Proving
Serious Problem.

WASHINGTON March 14.-The
merce appropriations appointed by
Chairman Ncwlands to consider the
antitrust legislative programme, strug-
gled for hours today with the proposal
Of the tentative bill to prohibit inter
locking direetorates, 1t was agreed
some regulation of this kind, supple
mentary to the Sherman law, should be
enacted, but ,diverging, opinions as to
how rigid it should be developed among
committee members.
We want to hit the bullseyc in
framing this feature of the proposed
legislation,' Senator Newlands said to-
night, "but we do not want bill that
may embody many useless restrictions
or provisions that might work more
harm than good. What the line of de-
marcation should be as to the prohlbl-
tion of interlocking directorates is the
problem first to be determined before
the committee can draft q measure to
be submitted to congress, On thls sub.
committee are able men and mon OF
different views, and it will take some
time to perfect the measure, -
The tentative bill on ipterlocking
directorates, drafted after the deliv.
cry Of President Wilson IS message on
trust legislation, is too extreme in the
opinion Of some committee members,
who fear it would prohibit men in busi.
ness from engaging in dual legitimate
undertakings advantageous to the gen.
eral welfare, The danger, they believe
in undertaking to control this phase OF
business, is Of overrcaching the mark
The committee purposes, it was as
serted, and in this it has the support
Of the president, to draft bill which
will be certain not to handicap or in
jure business, but to aid 1T by making
illegal only such forms of interlockiug
directorates as are deliberately formed
to foster monopoly or destroy compe-
tition.
The subcommittee practically has
completed its tentative draft OF the in
terlocking trade commission bill and
temporarily laid it aside, pending the
completion of the house measure with
the same object. An effort may be
made to harmonize the two bills be,
fore the senate committee makes public
its draft. The house bill probably will
be made public next week.
