INFANT EFFORTS
TO SURVIVE
HAZARDOUS
Steady Improvement Year By
Year, But Last Years
Was Best
INFANT DEATHS IN
COUNTIES VARY GREATLY

Babies who select Maryland for
their place of abode find the business
of living much less hazardous than it
was for their predecessors of twenty
years ago. There has been steady
improvement, year by year. but the
youngsters born in Maryland last
year, established a new record for
the staying qualities of these young
citizens-the best they have ever
reached.
A report issued by DR.. R. H. Riley,
Director of the State Department of
Health, gives these figures, taken
from the records of the State Bureau
of Vital Statistics. In 1916-twenty
years ago-one baby out of every 8
born that year, died before it was a
year old. Last year just half that
number-one in every 16 born-were
unable to survive the perils of in
fancy and died before rounding ont
the first year of life. In 1916, 27,3O5
births and 2,745 yeaths of babies un-
der year old-121 deaths in each
thousand born alive-were recorded
in the State. Last year, there were
1880 births and only 1893 infant
deaths in the State, that is, 62 baby
deaths in each thousand born alive.
The records show that fewer babies
were born in 1885 than in 1916, in
proportion to population, but in each
thousand born alive twice as many
survived.
Speaking of the significance of
Of these figures, DIR. J. H. M. Knox,
Jr., Chief of the Bureau Of Child Hy-
giene of the State Department of
Health said: "The carefully kept rec
ords of the Bureau of Vital Stats
tics show us that very encouraging
progress has been made in conserving
the lives of the little citizens of
Maryland. But they reveal other
things also. If we look more deeply
into the figures, we can see where
the greatest gains have been made
and where only a little has been ac-
complished.
"Of the 1893 deaths under year
old in the State last year, 924 occurred
in the counties-or 60 among every
1000 infants born alive. Although
this proportion is lower than that re-
corded for any previous year-it is
still unnecessarily high. Of these in
fants, 143, or more than Is per cent,
succumbed to diarrheal conditions
which are largely preventable.
"The number of infant deaths per
1000 born alive varied among the coun
ties from 40 to Ill. In five counties
of the State the rate was in excess
of 100. That is, out of every ten ba-
bies born, one died in it's first year.
1t is evident that in these areas more
efforts on behalf of mothers and in
fants must be made"
