Next in order of deafness comes
cancer which filed nearly 10000
graves in 1913. The exact number OF
deaths due to this dreaded malady
was 49.92S, of which about 40 per
cent resulted from cancers oil the
stomach and liver The mortality
rate rose from 63 hundred thousand
in 1900 to 7S.9 in 1918. 1t is probable
however. that at least part OF this
increase was apparent rather than
real. being due to more accurate dia'
gnoses and greater care on the part
of physicians in making reports 10
the registration officials
Il is worthy of note that the color
ed population, for which the death
rates from most causes are much
higher than for the whites shows a
decidedly low rate for cancer-57.3 a
hundred thousand for the entire regis
tration area in 1913. as compared
with 80 for the whites.
Apoplexy was the cause of 1920
deaths. or 74.6 a 100000, in the regis.
tration area in 1913. This rate in
creased gradually, with occasional
slight declines, from 67.5 hundred
thousand in 1900 to 1871 in 1912, but
dropped slightly in 1913.
No epidemic disease produced a
mortality rate as high as 20 a hun
dred thousand in 1913. The fatal
cases of diphtheria and Group num-
bered 1920, or 1873 hundred thou
sand, in that year the rate having fal
len from 43.3 in 1900. This decline
of nearly 81 per cent is relatively far
greater than that shown by any other
important cause of death The NOR
tally of the white population from
diphtheria and Group is about 10 per
cent greater, proportionately, than

that of the colored. The death rate
from these causes in cities of 10000
and over is about so per cent greater
than in smaller places.
Deaths from typhoid fever also
showed a very gratifying decline be-
tween 1900 and 1913, decreasing from
35.9 a hundred thousand in the earl
Ter year to 179 in the later, or by al
most exactly 80 per cent, This de-
cline was relatively greater than that
for any other principal cause of
death except diphtheria and Group.
The total number of deaths due to
typhoid fever in 1913 was 1928.
The mortality rate from this disease
among the colored population is
more than twice as great as for the
whites.
Although the death rates for most
causes are higher in urban than in
rural communities, the typhoid rate
in 1913 was about 20 per cent higher
in places of less than 10000 than in
cities of 10000 and over, which fact
may reasonably be construed as a
further indictment gainst the open
well. especially when equipped with
the poetic but insanitary moscow
cred bucket.
The great progress which has been
made in the handling of typhoid cas-
es is evidenced by the marked de-
crease in the mortality from this dis
ease And OF equal potency perhaps
has been the Improvement in proven
tive methods-the betterment OF wa
ter-supply and sewerage systems,
the campaign against the fly, and
other sanitary precautions. At any
rate. Americans can congratulate
themselves that in ID years, the
death rate from this disease has been
cut in two.

CHARGE COOLEY WITH MAKING
DISHONEST TRANSLATION
Edwin g. Cooley, who was super
intendent of Chicago public schools
before Ella Flagg Young, used to
teach children. Tell the truth and
shame the devil" Now the charge is
brought against Cooley of making
dishonest translation of a letter read
by him to the house and senate COM
mittees on education at Springfield
last week. Prof. Frank c. Roman of
the Syracuse university talked
against Cooley, He charged that the
word administrative" was inserted
into letter read by Cooley from DR..
Kerchensteiner the famous German
founder of trade schools at Munich.
This one word makes lot of differ
ence as to whether the Cooley bill is
any good. The letter in the original
German uses the phrase "ganz beson-
dere Schulbehorde." Cooley trans
lated it and published it entirely sep
arate administrative boards" Roman
says the word administrative" was
stuck into the letter by Cooley to give
it a false meaning.
81 have been in Munich and know
DR.. Kerchensteiner," said Roman to
a Day Book reporter. 81 know that
the administrative power in the Mu-
Mich schools is not dual and this rep
resentation of Kerchensteiner is
wrong. In the original letter there is
no word of any kind that could be
translated to our English word 'ad-
ministrative.
