Birth Rate
In u. S. Rises
During 1910
First -Four Months of ~
Ahead of Last Year
BY LOGAN cLENDENING, M. d

BY LOGAN CLENDENING, M. d
AFTER two centuries of
steady decline. the birth
rate In the United States Is
showing an increase.
There were 81, 900 more births
in 1910 than In 1889.
The birth rate jumped from
17.3 to 17.9.
In 1871 during the first four
months there were 10000 more
births in the United States than
during the corresponding months
in 1910.
We are nearly up to the Ger
man rate.
There is real priority prob
lem in the supply for dentists.
1t is a question whether the
armed services need dentists
more than the civil population.
The Dental Reserve Corps
has now sufficient officers to
meet the requirements OF the
war department. but il is a ques-
ton whether in calling too
many, some communities in the
civil population will suffer q
shortage or not.
I OCAL boards are advised
~ that they must determine in
a given case whether the local
community needs a dentist
enough so that he should be de-
ferred.
The supply of nurses also pre-
sents a priority problem and
with the induction of nurses into
service, the civil population is
showing a shortage.
So much SO that the surgeon
general of the United States
Public Health Service has issued
a call for $4,000 well-educated
young women to enter nursing

too much smoking cause this
