DEATH RATE IS GROWING (continued from page one) year -US eieeed 22.000. Suicide Increased 10 per cent during the year. while death by murder how a drop of 7 per cent. Mr. Nollen pointed out, however, that thl yearl increase In mortality ahould not be taken as indicative of the trend covering recent year; In last, a decided improvement lu mortality ha been shown over a term of year recently which was most encouraging. Notwithstanding the current increase in the mortality rate over Iat year, there appears a substantial decrease since 1920. The death rate among Insured person then was 958 per 100.000. but In 1924 It his dropped to B68. a gain of 90 live per 100,000 persons Insured. This shows a decrease In the morality rat in sir years of more than 9 per cent. "As might be expected." said Mr. Nollen, "there Is a fluctuation In the aggregate rate of death In a population from year to year and also In the re lative magnitude of the rate of loss due to the various causes of death. that we should observe the change that have occurred over a period of years to measure the effect of such conditions as we know, or may assume, to have been a factor in the result. Let us take" a record of the mortality experience of life insurance policyholders a tabulated for the year 1920 to 1926. Inclusive. For example, in 1920. tuberculosis caused the highest number of deaths, with an averr age of nearly 118 to each 100.000 of exposed lives. In 1921. thl rate dropped Just below 100. and has continue! to descend until the rate for the first ten months of the current year approximates 81 per 100,000. Compare this with the deaths due to organic disease of the heart which ranked the next highest la 1920. with an average ot 110 deaths per 100.000. Although there wa a alight Improvement in 1921. lnce then there has been a rather regular increase until the 10 months for the current year show that the rate has risen to more than 127 per 100,000. thus taking the lead among all causes "Applying these Insurance death claim figures to the estimated present popu lation of the United State, it means that there are over 20.000 more person dying from organic heart diseases this year than there would have been had the rate for 1920 prevailed; but there are over 30.000 fewer deaths from tuber- New Supplies of Mens Clothing arriving regularly.

Nollen. "the agencies for life saving have been chiefly concerned with the control of disease as a community problem that type of dis ease which manifest symptom that are generally apparent and in which the health agencies, both medical and gov ernmental, can take the Initiative ot control and regulation. The disease which have shown an increase In ratio and particularly those pertaining to the mature and later period of life- are of such a personal nature that they do not readily become a' matter of community concern. Therefore, any move ment in the direction of their cure or control must be left wholly to Individual Initiative: and It 1 thl personal rri possibility for the fight against fatalities from disease and accident that I seek to emphasize. The fact that disease of the heart and other parts of the circu latory system, of the kidney, brain and nervous system, may exlat fcr a long period of time without any warning or specifically noticeable discomfort ac count for the progress of these disease to a serious stage before a cure 1 called for by the individual.
