report shows that for 1927, the last
year for which the U. S. Census
Bureau has published per capita
death rates by causes. there has been
a staggering increase over 1919 in
the death rate from alcoholism in
every State in which the Census
Bureau has compiled and published
statistics of death rates by causes.
The only exception to the rule IL
Vermont, which had the same per
capita rate for both 1919 and 1927.
Kansas Rate High
The comparison of 1927 with 1919
is deemed of particular importance
because 1919 was the last year be-
fore the National Government began
its noble experiment" OF especial
interest is the fact that Kansas. pio.
