KENTUCKY STATISTICS SHOW
MORE BIRTHS; FEWER DEATHS

Louisville, KY, March 12.-Six
thousand more babies were born in
Kentucky in 1920 than in the pre-
ceding year and in 1920, 1000 fewer
persons died in the State, according
to a preliminary report by ]. F..
Blackerby, State Registrar of Vital
Statistics, to DR.. A. T. Mccormack,
State Health Officer. The increase
in births is about 10 per cent and
the decrease in deaths roughly s
per cent.
The return of the large number Of
Kentuckians who were in France
with the American armies to their
homes, and the resultant resump-
tion of normal social conditions, is
the reason given by Mr.. Blackerby
for the increase in the number of
births. The reduction in the num-
ber of deaths that occurred In the
State he explained by pointing out
that the fatalities due to communi-
cable diseases have been reduced
materially and that everywhere in
Kentucky more attention has been
paid to sanitation and health prob
lens.
