by DIR. NORRIS FISHBEIN-

THE death rate from heart disease in the United
Il States in 1900 1872 for each 100000 of the
population In 1892 it pa per 100000 in
crease Of approximately 70 per cent.
Some Of this increase is due to the fact that more
persons living longer and th"t they must die Of
some disease or, at least, from breaking down Of
the body generally. Since the failure Of the heart
is associated with DEATH it is reasonable to believe
that more persons live longer, more and more will
die of heart disease.
However, other factors are involved in this in
crease. One is the improvement in the ability Of
doctors to diagnose certain types of heart disease,
such those affecting the coronary arteries the
small blood vessels which supply the heart itself
with blood.
Another important factor is the increase in fire.
quency Of heart disease in persons past 80 years Of
age.
TN previous generations many persons died of in
fectious diseases Of childhood Now they tend to
avoid these diseases or to recover from them, but
sometimes there is sufficient damage to the heart to
show itself in the increased number of deaths after
30 years of age.
The various types Of heart disease vary in differ
ent parts of the country Rheumatic fever predomi-
mates as cause of heart disease in the north and
east portions Of the United States, but is much less
in the southern portions.
In the western and southern portions of the coun-
try, high blood pressure and hardening Of the
arteries are associated with the increase in heart
disease
The figures show that heart disease is twice as
frequent in the northeast portions Of the United
States as in the far south while the middle and
central states are just between the two.
THAT type of heart disease which is called hyper
i tensive, and which is associated with high blood
pressure seems TO be increasing and is said TO be in
cident to the increased strain and complexity Of
modern life
It is a remarkable observation that native Chinese
seldom have high blood pressure, but develop the
condition when transplanted into the life Of the
United States.
Among African natives, high blood pressure Is
seldom seen but the direct descendants Of the Ain
can natives in this country have higher incidence
of abnormally high blood pressure than do white
persons living in the same districts
High blood pressure therefore, is 10 large ex-
