SAVINGS DEPOSITS GAIN OVER HALF according to a report of a speech of Dr. Haven Emerson, of the Collega of Physicians and Surgeons, in yesterday's newspapers. Medical science, he said, has reduced the death rates in all but two classes, diabetes and suicide. Other reports of mid-depression health have gain- ed currency. But their validity seems more apparent than real. The hospitals of New York City report no decline, but an increase, in the total number of days of care. The decline has been among patients who used to pay for more expensive rooms. Ward patients have increased. And the clinics are overrun, just as the hospitals are overcrowded. The number of deaths is not a true gauge of the inroads which the unemployment blight is making upon the health of the population., The effects are more subtle. The depression, through its denial of enough nourishing food to children by the hun- by the wear and tear of worry and the enfeeblement of malnutrition, effects which do not show up in health statistics now.

The|modest Dutch community he presents a pathetic Phone 114 3 other thirteen registered gains. Thus the total in- picture with crease in deposits for 1931 was $565,281,893 and a very considerable part of that increase was represented by the gain in New York savings banks, which amounted to $466,348,132. The gain in 12 other States amounted approximately to $100,000,000. The total increase of mutual savings bank de- posits in 1929 was only $65,236,264, or $12,000,000 more than the increase in the final six months of 1931. For the whole year of 1931 the gain in deposits was but $27,000000 below 1930, when the entire gain represented $502,607,440. The two years pro- duced almost identical results. Savings bankers emphasized that the increase in deposits should not overshadow the gain in de- positors, the increase of 584,179 dndicating that a larger number of people than ever before were trying to assure their independence. This increase ‘brought the total of depositors to a new high figure of 13,359,671. As in the case of deposits, New York provided the largest proportion of new savers last year—460,792. The average account rose to $750.77 from $740.85 2 year ago, but decreased slightly from the average New York had the high aver- G 1 his shadowy gestures in support of dead royal customs.
