NECESSARY FOR STATE TO
RECORD LIFE AND DEATH
Death Rate for Maryland is
Ascertained This Way


The 1880 Census and the interest
everywhere aroused, first. as to why,
and then as to whether, every indi-
vidual has been counted in this years
checking up of the population of the
United States, has suggested other
questions associated with public rec
ords.
For instance, records of births and
deaths are registered by the State
Department of Health. Why and by
whom are they collected?
Answering these questions, DIR. R.
H. Riley, Director of the State De-
partment of Health, said that each
state maintains it's own registry of
births and deaths in order that it may
know how it stands in the matter of
life and death. He compared the
registration and analysis of scuh rec
ords to the bookkeeping bank does
to check up on it's resources-its gains
and it's losses. By comparing the
deaths with the population, what is
known as the death rate is ascer-
tanned. By measuring the deaths
under one year against the births and
getting the ratio to each thousand
live births, what is known as the in
FAINT mortality rate is obtained. AS
uniform methods are used by all
states in the United States and by all
civilized countries throughout the
world, these rates serve as units OF
measurement and of comparison. They
are often spoken of as the yard sticks
of life and death.
The Bureau of Vital Statistics of
the State Department of Health is the
legal custodian of the records of life
and death in the state. In collecting
these records the Central" or "Di-
rect" method of registration is fol-
lowed. That is, the records, after
having been collected by the Local
Registrar, are sent each month, di-
rectly to the Bureau of Vital Sta
tistics, where they are classified, ana
lyzed, tabulated and filed.
For the purpose of collecting these
records, each county is divided into
Registration Districts, corresponding
to the voting districts, with Local
Registrar in charge of each district.
The County Health Officer serves as
County Registrar; the Director of the
State Department of Health and the
Chief of the Bureau Of Vital Stats
tics, serve as State Registrar and
Assistant State Registrar, respec-
lively. Baltimore City has its own
Bureau of Vital Statistics connected
with the Baltimore City Department
of Health, and it's own Registrar to
whom reports of births IND deaths
are sent.
When a birth occurs, the State
Registration Law requires that it be
reported within four days after the
date of the birth, by the physician
or midwife in attendance, to the
Registrar of the district in which it
occurs. The same law requires that
a death certificate be filled out by the
physician in attendance, twenty-four
hours after the death in which the
person dies and that a burial permit
he obtained before interment. The
registrars hold the certificates of birth
and death deposited with them and
forward them by the fifth of the fol-
lowing month, directly to the State
Registrar. In each county, a copy of
the records is also forwarded to the
County Health Officer.

REPORT OF CENSUS SHOWS
OAKLAND IS INCREASING
Preliminary Returns Show Oak
land Has Gained a Total of
29S in Past Ten Years

That the city of Oakland had gained
total of 29S in population since the
census in 1920, was reported this
morning by John ]. Stump, Cumber-
land, supervisor of the 1880 Census
for this district. Oakland now has a
population of 1878, as compared with
1875 listed in 1920.
The figures are tentative and SUBJ
ject to correction. This is the fourth
town in Garrett county which has re-
ported an increase in population, last
weeks preliminary figures giving
Grantsville, Mt. Lake Park and Deer
Park a greater population than in
1920. Kitzmiller and Loeb Lynn
Heights were two towns listed as
having decreased.
The first six towns enumerated in
the county show net gain of 266
over the figures of ten years ago.
In order that no person in the
county will be missed, a blank is be-
ing printed in this issue of The Re-
publican asking whether or not an
enumerator has called to take the CEN
sus, and if not this blank is to be
filled in and mailed to the census
supervisor. In Morgantown and Fair
mont, w. Va, several hundred addi-
tional names were found by this
method.
In election district No. II, of this
county, known as The Elbow, the
population is 800, as compared with
$40 in 1920. This loss was partly due
to a new election district, Avilton,
formed since the last census. There
were fifty-nine farms enumerated in
this area.
