INFANT DEATH
RATE APPALS,
SAYS SPEAKER
Greatest Factor in Increasing
Span of Life is Reducing
Infant Death Rate

Milwaukee, Wis, Sept. 22-The
greatest single factor in increasing
the span of life is the saving of in
fants and children, DR.. E. l.. Tuohy,
OF Duluth, Mimi, told the National
conference of Catholic Charities here
tonight ..s..
There is still an appalling death
rate occurring within the first year of
life" Dr. Tuohy continued. There is
a wastage of 25 per cent up to the
eighth year. There is evidence to
show that it requires an addition to
the population of three and one-half
to four to insure the ultimate pres
ence Of one new adult.
There is a well-known unfavOrable
tendency for our native population to
remain stationary or actually receje
Among the better educated, notably
the college graduate, they are by no
means replacing their own numbers. .
Taking up the subject of the DEATH
rate, DR.. Tuohy stated that there is a
very definite decline of the death rate
from tuberculosis where the educa-
tional work began some 25 years ago.
Similar work as it will pertain to
cancer is just beginning, he added.
Urges Charitable Attitude
In speaking of the social worker,
DR.. Tuohy said: Il urge a more
charitable attitude of these social
workers toward the regular practic-
ing physicians. The medical profess
sion, on the other hand is liable TO
have an inherent distrust of these
newer workers coming into demains
partly their own Neither side under
stands the other and this should be
remedied quickly
'The diet of nation has definite
influence on the efficiency and longe'
vity of it's people," DR.. Tuohy stated.
