roRTY.THREE MILLION LIVES
Lost to World Through the Great
War; According TO Figures Given
by Jstatisteian.

A study OF the different statistics OF
the actual and potential loss Of life
due to the recent war reveals the fact
that about forty-three million lives
have been lost to the world either d.
rectly from the war or from causes
induced by It, Richard +, Strong, III.
D., writes In the North American Re
view. These losses are made up OF,
first, approximately 100000 deaths
which occurred in the military serv-
ice; secondly q surplus mortality
above that which occurred IN normal
times in the civilian populations
amounting 10 Approximately lO,OOO,OOO,
due 10 epidemic and other diseases,
priyatlon, hardship, physical exhaus-
ton, and similar causes; and thirdly
a potential loss of 20,0OO,O00 lives
due 10 the decreased birth frequency
below that which occurred under nor
NAL conditions before the war. The
adult male population in many Euro
pcan countries has been reduced by
from II to 20 per cent. The figures OF
Alonz0 TAYLOR show us that there are
between 100000 and G0,000000 peo-
pie in Europe who have lost their
prewar occupations owing to the fact
that the markets for their products
no longer exist, having been changed
or taken away from them by other
countries. Many Of these people have
