THE BISMARCK TRIBUNE. TUESDAY, MAY 27, 1930 BIDS TO BE CALLED POR ON ESTIMATES | OF CITY ENGINEER; Commission Also Purchases a New Grader, Adams Com- pany Getting Contract TAKING AIRPORT INSURANCE Municipality Is Protecting Itself From Damages in Case of Accidents Due Neglect Paving estimates for the es | western section of the city, submitted to the city commission, Monday eve- ning, by City Engineer Atkinson were accepted and City Auditor Atkinson was authorized to advertise for bids for the improvement. Using Warrenite bitulithic, it was | estimated that the expense of pav- ing the several blocks on Mandan, First and Second and Avenues D and E will be $26,000; 6-inch reinforced | concrete cost $27,000; while sheet asphalt will entail an expense of $30,- 000 on the petitioning property own- ers. Another item of highway improve- ment was the award of the contract for a new grader. This went to Thomas Craven, representing the Adams Road Machinery company, at a price of $1048 for a 4400-pound ma- chine, the company taking the old grader off the city's hands and giving it some benefit of freight costs. City Auditor Atkinson was author ized to take out compensatory insur- ance on the municipal airport, as this takes the status of a utility, though operated free, and the city would be responsible for any accident in which neglect to make the field airproof safe were a contributing cause, in the opinion of City Attorney Young. Pro- vision will be made for $50,000 com- pensation on single disasters, $50,000 on group indemnity and $10,000 on property damages. It was ordered that the north side of Thayer avenue between Third and Fourth street be put on a two-hour parking basis and signs will be placed there removing the stretch along the Montgomery Ward store, the Willys- Knight salesrooms and the oil station from 12-hour anchorage privileges. An ordinance increasing the plumb- ers license fee from $5 to $25, as re- quested by. their association, was in- troduced and given first reading. Another traffic ordinance against the violation of parking signs and markings also was introduced and passed first reading. A communication from Liebenberg and Kaplan asked that $10 be added to the price to be paid E. E. Ricker on his community building electrical contract, due to a ‘substitution of costlier material in one detail. Wheat Pool Members Defend Marketing Act Wichita, Kan., May 27.(7)—Mem- bers of the National Wheat pool, at their annual conference here, an- nounced their intentions of reorgan- izing to oppose any attack which may be made on the agricultural market- ing act. “It is probable,” said G. M. John- son, president of the Wheat Growers association of Minneapolis, “that the United States chamber of commerce will make an effort at the next ses- sion of congress to have the agricul- tural marketing act amended or re- pealed. We must organize and be ready to oppose any such effort.” NO BIDS FOR TOWER Minneapolis, May 27.—(7)—No bids were received for the purchase of the Foshay tower and the auction or- dered by the federal court to satisfy creditors was continued until June 23, Your Money Back - Plus $2,5001 lowing than you have paidin =and ed ot bet Has, in odtition, pe ee oe ie ny other money -buildi re re ern ees = for It today. a — 175,000 INVESTORS — ‘Send booklet, “Enjoy Money” to INVESTORS SYNDICATE FOUNDED+1894 vewrene LOS ANGELES saanicn Omeces 21 Dekote National rest Bids. x fat (er os Paincipan ermes Investors Syndicate District Of- fice Dakota National Trust Bldg, Room 21, Bismarck, N.

A. Whittemore, Bismarck, state health officer, told the North Dakota State Medical association here today. Dr. Whittemore’s paper embraced a preliminary report of a maternal mortality survey of North Dakota for the years of 1927 and 1928. “If adequate prenatal care could be made a part of the regular obstet- ‘ric service under one regular fee ‘placed within the reach of the pa- tient's income, the problem would be solved,” he said. i | State Conditions Favorable The survey disclosed North Dakots | occupies a favorable position among lother states as to maternal mortality | rates, ranking lowest in 1926 and con- | spicuously low for other years. “Of the whole number of cases |studied,” Dr. Whittemore toid the convention, “from 60 to 70 per cent \of them should be considered due to, | preventable causes. | “Tt is actually startling-to nove that) | maternal deaths in this country are in actual competition with tubercu- | losis for first place among the 10 most | prevalent causes of death for women jin the child-bearing age period. “Only a small proportion (7.1 per cent) prenatal care; a slightly larger num- ber (22.2 per cent) had inadequate a favorite American grain, wholesome corn care, but the greater number, or 70 per cent, had no prenatal care of any kind.” ‘The method employed in making the survey, Dr. Whittemore told the gathering, was by actual personal in- terviews with physicians and ofhers in attendance on the cases, by a phy- siclan on the staff of the Health De-| partment. Lowest Rate of Kind in U. 8S. In 1926 North Dakota's mortality rates per 1,000 for live births was 4.29, according to the survey. In 1929, the rate was 5.10, and in 1928 it was 5.5. “The physcians of the state are to be congratulated for the fact that North Dakota has the distinction of having had the lowest maternal death rate in the United States for 1926,| and at all times has occupied a very favorable position,” Dr. Whittemore declared. Maternal deaths took first place in} 1927 and 1928 among women in the age group from to 20 to 49 years, covering approximately the child- hegird age, the survey showed. Dur- ing 1925-26, maternal deaths in this age group were second, with tuber- culosis first. For the age groups 20 to 29, ma- ternal deaths were in second place, with tuberculosis first from 1925 to 1928, inclusive. For the age group from 30 to 49 years, maternal deaths were first from 1926 to 1928, inclu- sive, and second in 1925, Some of the Facts “In the age period from 30 to 39, maternal deaths held first place for three of the four years including 1926, the year that North Dakota had the lowest maternal death rate in the of them may justly be classified as due to preventable causes.” There were 76 maternal deaths in the state in 1927, and 94 in 1928, making a total of 170 deaths with a combined rate of 5.78 per 1,000 live births, according to the survey. Of these only 12 had adequate pre- natal care, 38 had some or inadequate care, five had no prenatal care, and five were not reported, Dr. Whitte- more said. “The minimum standard for ade- quate prenatal care for the purpose of this study consists of a visit to a phy- sician every month,” he continued. “By inadequate care is meant where the patient consulted her physician at irregular intervals.” More Vigilance Needed Of the 170 deaths there were 110 delivered of a viable child, 42 were abortions, seven ectopics, and ten women died before delivery, the sur- vey indicated. No data was See in one case, “A significant factor in methods is disclosed by the fact,” the doctor said, “that 29 per cent of the entire, 43 per cent of the septic cases and 36 per cent of the albuminuria cases had made no contact with their medical adviser prior to complications. This means to me that the physcian did not sell to his patient the need of constant vigilance, or that in too large a percentage of cases the doc- tor himself was not sufficiently alert to the possibilities of adequate pre- natal care.” Frank H. Hyland Is Taken to Rochester Devils Lake, N. D., May 27.—(P)— Frank H. Hyland, Devils Lake, state registration area,” Dr. Whittemore pointed out. “These facts deserve the earnest consideration of every phy-| sician and health officer in the state. It seems to me that about 70 per cent of these cases had adequate senator and former lieutenant gov- |ernor, was taken to Rochester, Minn., last night for medical treatment.
