 In 1949 it was in third place as cause of death in Alaska, with tuberculosis in first place and accidents as second. Indication of drop in the tuberculosis deaths in Alaska is attributed to the intensive TB control work during the past six years. Cancer, while in second place as cause of death in the states at present, was in sixth place in Alaska in 1852.
