NEW YORK Aug li-Almost an
entire year has been added 70 the
general average duration Of life by
Americas successful battle against
tuberculosis within the decade from
1920 to 1890 statisticians OF the
Metropolitan Life Insurance Com
pany here have found About
another years gain stands to the
credit Of the previous decade.
That so much has been accom-
piished IN increased life expectation
through attack on a single disease
is considered 70 be very remarkable
and gratifying
According 70 the mortality
statistics Of the recent census year
1880, the curiailment OF the aver
age length OF lile due 70 tuberculosis
was luSt over one year for white
persons Of either sex. In 1920 II was
little short Of two years Still
another decade further back in time
II was about three wears
The loss Of potential years Of life
through given cause depends not
only on the degree OF mortality
from that cause. but also on the
age period AZ which its effect is
concentrated. In this respect tu-
berculoSis is in a particularly I'M
favorable position
Deaths from tuberculosis occur
very largely among young persons
or persons At the prime Of life. As
the result OF this, although the
death rate from tuberculosis for
tunately has decreased in late years
SO far as to relegate this cause to
the seventh rank among the prin-
cipal causes Of death. yet the num-
erage, is still a relatively important
item
Among white persons in the
United States IN 1880, the average
length Of life or the expectation of
life az birth is shortened by IL years
through all forms of tuberculosis.
Up 10 about the twentieth year of
NE me curtaliment OF the aver
age remaining after lifetime by tu-
berculosis remains nearly the same.
irrespective of age, namely. about
one year. according 20 the mortality
rs OF 1890
After this age it falls rapidly.
Among white males. for example,
. the loss OF remaining after lifetime
at age ~ is about one-half year;
a. age of So. only Is of year. or
less than two months
The situation is strikingly differ
ent in the case of heart disease.
There the loss of life was nearly
the same for all ages up to 50, and
only slightly less even at age 90.
because heart disease claims most
OF its victims among persons in or
past midlife.
