SAFER TO FLY9

that the annual death rate Of
pilots from flying accidents was
at the rate of six per thousand.
The American mortality tables
upon which life insurance rates
are based are contrasted, giving
the death rate among men of "A
as eight per thousand. Hence it
is argued that. taking "A as the
average age of air pilots. the men
on the ground had only 992
chances of living, while the fellow
in the air had 994.
But isn't this proving too
much? Surely il is not intended
TO invite the entire population to
take to the air, on the idea that
there are more chances of life in
the clouds than on terra firma.
Perhaps the statistician s tabula-
tons are only another evidence
that. while figures do not lie, fig
ures are not so infallible.
BE that as it may. the other
data is interesting. There were
29s deaths in the six months fly

fatality for every 2,9l9 hours of

the statement TO a Congressional

guaranteeing success for the plan.

Warns Against the
 Use of Saccharin

Washington, D. C., Nov. S.-The use of saccharin in place of sugar, which many housewives are being tempted to resort to in these days of sugar shortage, may involve men- ace to the health, and therefore is to be condemned, according to spe- cialists in the bureau of chemistry of the United States department of agriculture. In most eases house. wives have turned to this substance in their emergency, because they do not understand that saccharin is a harmful drug; to consider it harm less, healthful substitute for sugar is absolutely false, say the govern ment's chemists.
 The department of agriculture has received number of inquiries from housewives in the last few days con- cerning the properties of saccharin, and in every case it has answered by condemning the use of the drug for cooking purposes. It calls attention to the fact that the bureau of chem lstry is now aiding in the prosecution Of a large St. Louis concern which makes saccharin for violation of the food and drugs act.
