in Washington more nearly con-
forms to the Census Office require
ments, it was learned upon inquiry
at the Census Office, than those Of
any other city than New York.
Likewise, Washington is believed to
lead the list in the percentage OF
births that find their way to the
official roster.
Despite the difficulties encounter
ed in this city because Of constant
changes of residence, and Of per-
sons moving to and from the city,
q close check is kept on all births.
In all cases Of deaths Of babies OF
less than one year, the birth certifi-
cate Is looked up In the Health De-
partment office. BY this checking
system the department has come to
the conclusion that 81 per cent OF
all babies born in the District are
reported.
This 8 per cent discrepancy is
caused by tho occasional cases of
foreign mothers who have no medi-
cal attention, and in other cases it
has been found that physicia2s died
before having a chance to return
certificates.
In many States the percentage of
registration, found by comparing the
health office records with census
figures. is very low. In many 1t
falls below rs per cent and In a
births are believed to be registered.
The work Of arousing States to a
realization Of the need for more
efficient registration will be carried
on under the direction Of Mrs. Eta
r. Goodwin.

formed by the board that their appli-
