Influenza Epidemic
Killed 100000 in u. S.
$24O, 100000 Insurance Loss
Laid to Plague of 1913;
Working Class Hard Hit

Statistics compiled by James D.
Craig and DR.. Louis l. Dublin, of the
Metropolitan Life Insurance Company.
and submitted to the Actuarial So
clety of America, show that there we're
100000 deaths in the United States
during the influenza epidemic which
swept the country in the autumn and
early winter of 1918 The losses suf
fered by insurance companies as re-
suit of the epidemic totalled s9O,0OO,-
900, while those of the War Risk In
surance Bureau amounted to about
S150,00O,00O.
The figures indicate distinct dis-
ference between the influenza cpl
demic of 1918 and that OF thirty years
ago in range of ages affected and the
PARTICULAR organs of the human body
attacked. The epidemic of thirty
years ago wrought it's greatest havoc
among children and persons of old
age, while that of 1918 had it's worst
effects on infants and persons in adult
working life. The mortality of males
was greater than that of females. The
highest mortality caused by the dis
ease affected persons of the wage
earning class, especially those stu
ated in the lowest economic range.

In Central Park
Engineers Mate on Com

Will Tell All About the
Workings of the NC-4

Even a more elaborate recruiting
rally than was planned for last Sun
day, when the rain interfered, will be
staged by the Naval Recruiting Sta
tion this afternoon on the Sheep
Meadow, Central Park, where The
NC-i has been on exhibition for two
weeks. "Smoky" Rhoads, known Of
icially as Chief Machinistas mate, f.
S. Rhoads, one of the engineers on
Lieutenant Commander Reads plane
during the flight across the Atlantic,
will be at the park all afternoon and
explain the NC-4 to visitors.
Exhibits at Central Park have been
increased by the addition of Vickers,
Lewis and Davis machine guns Of the
type used on airplanes. There are
also ten frames, each containing nine
pictures of naval activities.
Since announcement came from
Washington that the enlistment period
had been cat in half and that war
pay had been made permanent. navy
cnlistments have taken a jump, it was
announced last night by Lieutenant
Commander John II. Falgc, in charge
of recruiting at "a East Twenty
third Street. The average weekly en-
listment Of seventy-five jumped to 1872
in the week ended last Thursday night.
All OF these are first enlistments.
Secretary Daniels has written the
following letter, addressed to parents
of prospective recruits:
upon the cessation of hostilit:es the
Departments first concern was to bring
about the release of the young men
who came into the navy to contribute
their help in time of war, and by so
doing sacrificed from one to two years
of their educational training, so as to
permit them to return to college.
strongly advise every young man who
can possibly do so to go to college,
and appeal to parents to encourage
their sons to complete their education.
If unable to do so, however, | urge
that parents investigate in behalf of
their sons the opportunities offered by
the navy to every ambitious young man
and suggest that they interview local
recruiting officers or communicate with
the Navy Department.
ITO the average young man one of
the chief appeals of college life, apart
from the educational advantage, is the
athletic training and resultant fun
which forms a part of the life. That
is a healthy, young American view
point. The athletic life is also one of
the strongest allurements of the navy.
Each ship has it's athletic activities,
and the intership contests are events
to which the men look forward with
as keen anticipation as do the varsity
enthusiasts.
"The technical training offered by
the navy gives young men an oppor-
tunity to become proficient in what
ever line they choose, and at the same
time lead life consistent with ideals
of American manhood"
The Motor Transport Corps led all
other branches of the army yesterday
with twenty-one recruits out of a total
or SlXty-seven men accepted The
Quartermastcr Corps was second with
sixteen men, and the Air Service third
with twelve.
