Washington, D. c., Feb. 12.-Minne-
sofa leads the eighteen registration
states in low death rate for 1918. ac-
coring to statistics announced by the
census bureau. The Minnesota death
rate was 1917 to the thousand inhabit-
ants, while Maryland was highest of
the registration states with 1853. The
general average for the eighteen states
was 1873 to the thousand Of estimated
population, compared with 1876 for
1912, and 1919 for 1911. Rates of other
registration states for 1918 were:
California 1874, Colorado 11.9, Con-
necticut 14.4; Indiana 1876; Kentucky
1874; Massachusetts, lat; Michigan 1871;
Missouri 1874; Montana 1870; New
York 1876; Ohio 1871; Utah 11.6; YER
mont 1876; Wisconsin 1919.
Twin CItIes' Rates the Same.
Minneapolis stands almost at the top
OF the f~orty-five registration cities, but
Portland takes the palm with a rate
of IL to the thousand, with Oakland,
Cal, coming, next, showing a rate Of
an even 10 to the thousand, and st.
Paul Is returned at exactly the same
figure on the estimated populations.
The twin cities are tied for third place.
tration Is 22.S for Memphis. Other
cities rates were:
Birmingham, 20.4; Los Angeles, 14.9;
San Francisco. 1871; Denver, las; New
Haven, l6.2; Washington, 17;5; Allan
21.S: Baltimore, 1874; Boston 17.S; cam.
bridge, 1876; Fall River, 1871: Lowell,
1919; Detroit, 1872; Kansas City, 1853;
City. 16.9; Albany, 49,; Buffalo. i7.S;
New York, 1862; Cincinnati, 1872; Cleve-
land, 15.7; Dayton, 1913; Richmond, "a;
Milwaukee, 14,2.
That the agitation and the work don
to control preventable diseases in Min
nesota has had much" to do with the
showing Minnesota has made is the
opinion Of DR.. H. NJ. Bracken, secre-
tary of the state board Of health.
Population Greater, Deaths Fewer.
"Of course, Minnesota is one Of the
newest states in the registration
newer states as a rule nave the lowest
death rates. Dur climate and other
conditions are favorable and do much
toward keeping down the death rat
to the west Of US, n they no doubt
would make a good showing if they
had the registration system. But the
Minnesota statistics are very well kept,
slight falling off in the number OF
deaths, though the population at the
same time was increasing. We have
not made up totals for 1913, but they
no doubt would show a still further re-
duction.
THE decreases in deaths from pre-
ventable diseases in Minnesota has
been marked. This classification in
cludes deaths from pneumonia, tuber-
culosis,- diphtheria, Intestinal diseases
of children, and contagious diseases OIL
every kind. This classification also IN.
cludes deaths by accident, but they run
almost the same in each year, so the
reduction has come in fatalities from
~preventable disease. Deaths in the
preVentable class for 1910 were ii, S19
Of which 1,7S5 were from accidents; ir
1911 they were 10, $50, with 1888 from
accidents, and in 1912 the total was g..
423, Of which 1892 were from accidents
The decrease in ~preventable disease
deaths is shown to be greater than the
net decrease in deaths for each year.
