DEATH RATE DROPS | 14PCT.IN 30 YEARS More Children 5 to 19 Years Old Die From Mishaps Than Disease. Although the United States s a safer place for children now than in 1900, with the death rate dropping 44 per cent In that period, m survey by the United States Pubilc Health Service discloses that children between the ages of 5 and 19 die more from mishaps than disease Automobiles eause one-third of all sccidental deaths of school calldren, the survey shows, Drownings cause about half as many deaths as sutomobiles. Burns, bullet wounds, trains and falls are listed as important causes of accidental deaths. Next to accidents, children die most from tuberculosis, heart trouble, pneu- monia, diphtheria and appendicitis in the order named Appendicitis kills more children than 30 years ago, but this probably is really because doctors recognize the disease more readily than formerly, say health authorities, Many cases once diagnosed as colic or perityphilitis now are known 1o be appendicitis Heart disease, the leading cause, of deaths among adults, is causing an in- ereasing number of deaths among chil- dren. The rise may be pertly due to the greater stress of modern life, per- haps somewhat to after effects of other diseases. Tuberculosis has decreased consider- ably since 1900, It takes a toll of about 30 per 100,000 as compared With more than 70 thirty years ago. Diphtheria also I8 far less of & scourge than former- iy, while improved sanitation in han- diing and preparing food, milk and water and more sanitary living condi- tions generally are credited by the health service with bringing about the Jarge decrease in deaths from typhoid fever and kindred diseases. The “safest age” for children seems to be between 10 and 14 years of age, since there are fewer deaths in this age group than any other.
