The standard estimate of 10 or more active cases for each death has been the Framingham survey to mean well marked cases. The find- ings of the public health service ap- plied to our population would indi- cate active tuberculosis of all types of 594 cases.

Fourteen Diphtheria Deaths. “During the year there were 279 cases and 14 deaths, 76 per cent. of up-to-dute health methods.
