NEW YORK, February 1.—The most cxpensive State in which to die is New | Jersey and the least expensive is North Carolina, says a report of the advisory | committee on burial survey, made after | a two-year investigatio The report gives Net . N. J.. as the city in which funerals are the most ex- pensive, the average cost there be- | ing $493. The average funeral cost in | New Jersey is $484. North Carolina’s average is $194. The costs in the United States have | risen until now they absorb a mafor | part of the small estates, says the re- | port: in some instances 62.1 per cent of the money left by the deceased being used for funeral expenses. The survev lays the responsibility for | this situation on excessive emotionalism ! of the bereaved family and' the “disor- canized and wasteful” condition of the | funeral industry. The solution it sug-| gests is elimination within the industry of its weaker and more inefficient mem- bers and co-operation ~* the clergy and agencies dealing with the bereaved families in educating people of limited income to keep funeral expenditures down. Examined. in other | 15,100 Bills Figures for funeral costs cities were given as: Philadelphia, $483: New York City. $432: Cleveland. $403: Detroit. $392; Chicago, $381: St. Louis. $351; Batlimore, $249.
