This is about the average for the
more progressive states. Several
states had much better record, and
several had worse record. Put in
more general terms, out of every
1000 children born in Ohio, about 80
die the first year.
At the very lowest estimate which
can be made to depend upon facts al
ready well known, it appears that the
wage earners of this state lost not
less than $30,000,0O0 annually from
sickness in wages alone. The cost of
medical care and of premature death
is, of course, enormous.
To meet the contingency of financial
benefits alone, the workers pay for
burial insurance nearly $12,000,00
annually to five commercial insurance
companies, of which about $5,000,000
is returned to them in benefits, the
remainder being for profits, admins
tration expense, etc.

Rochester, N Y.-The New York
State railways is no longer experienc-
ing difficulty in securing motormen
and conductors since it has increased
wages.
"The recent wage increase grnted
to our employees has proved very help
full in our attempt to render satisfac-
tory service" says General Manager
Hamilton
"The number of applications for
positions as motormen and conductors
has more than doubled since the per-
iod of the increase Another pleasing
result is that very few men, if any,
have left the service since the increase
and number of motormen and con-
ductors previously in the service have
returned"

Half Baby Quota Saved In
First Months Work.

Columbus Ohio during April, the
opening month of Children's Year,
Saved" one more than one-half the
average monthly quota of babies as
signed to the state by the Federal
government for the baby-saving cam
paign.
The division of child hygiene Of the
State Department of Health, in charge
of the Ohio campaign, made this an
nouncement today, giving figures by
counties and cities on deaths of chill
dren under 5 years old in April.
Deaths totaled 1857, making a
Saving" of 139 as compared with the
average month of 1916, upon which
year quotas are based. The average
monthly quote assigned in Ohio is 376.
The total saving set as the years
goal is 4,510, representing reduc-
ton of one-third in the number of
baby deaths as compared with 1916
Saving throughout the year at the
rate attained in April would bring
years reduction of only 2,268. The
goal of the national campaign is to
save 100000 of the 100000 babies
who would die if the rate of previous
years were to prevail.
The Butler County press. [volume] (Hamilton, Ohio) 1900-1946, 1918-06-14

trie railway company in the United
States is now asking that its rates of
fare be increased. What is that but
asking change in their agreements
with the cities and various municipal
ties? These franchises are contracts
and nothing else, and the companies,
on account of the high cost Of every
thing, are compelled to ask that they
be changed
$50 when the whole situation is
looked at in an intelligent manner you
can readily see that the street and
electric railway men are not doing
anything unreasonable or unfair, but
are simply asking for the same con-
sideration that the traction companies
of the country are asking fora liv-
ing wage to meet the abnormal con-
ditions brought about by the present
war"

Summary OF Conditions
Exposed By Health And Old Age Commis-
sion Investigations.
BRING FORTH FIGURES SURPRISING
TO TAXPAYERS.

In the words of William Shakes
peare the Health and Old Age Insur-
ance Commission, which is conducting
study of old age pensions, sickness
insurance and better means of public
health, is saying to the people of Ohio,
"Gaze on this picture and then on
this" The expression joins two sets
of facts which have been collected and
presented.
The first of these two sets was made
public several weeks ago, and gave
the brighter side of Ohio's industrial,
agricultural, general economic and
sociological facts on the brighter side.
1t showed, for instance, that more
than one-half of the people of the
State own the homes in which they
live, and that savings deposits and
building and loan deposits, owned in
great part by the workers, were very
large.
Now, the second part of the state
ment is presented to the people. 1t
shows side of more sombre hue.
While there are areas of the sunlight
prosperity, there are many dark sides
of adversity which fall heavily on the
great mass of the people. Thus, for
instance, in the midst of what is gen
orally termed as abounding pros
perity, a percentage of the people are
in actual want. 1t has indicated that
two per cent. of the population, or
one hundred thousand people are aided
by public agencies every year. This
number, of course, does not include
the number who are aided by private
and small charitable organizations,
which probably exceeds the number
aided in public way.
1t is the hope of the Commission to
evolve some plan which will reduce
the amount of distress. The facts are
gathered in an endeavor to find the
necessity for action and a profitable
means of action.
1t is estimated that in 1916, Ohio
spent more than ten million dollars
for the care of detectives and delin-
quents, and for the aged and infrm
This amount represents the outlay OF
the State through State, County, City
and Township agencies, and does not
include the amount spent by private
charities, old folks homes, etc.
During the year 1916, there were
31,314 people in the State benevolent
and penal institutions, and the aver
age daily attendance was 21 ,656. The
total expenditures by the State fol
maintenance was $4,072, ,689. An in.
ventory of the property showed to-
tai investment of over twenty-five
million dollars.
In the County and City Infrmaries
there were 14,306 persons, and the
expenditure was $1,455,9 ,944. In the
public children's homes there were
5,319 children, and the total expendi.
ture was $505,206 The Counties ex
pended $228,029 in outdoor relief fol-
6,708 persons. The Townships spent
$308,189 in outdoor relief for Al ,29T
persons. Pensions for the blind were
