Pitts First wrmwwesr,mnl _ rgcorp, 2 srates e Bpringlield, 111.--Compared _ with mortality in 27 leading states of the Union, for which official statistics are available, lllinois stands first with the lowest average death rate for the three year&#period ending with 1923. This fact is shown by recent figures compiled and issued by the U. 8. bureau of the census. HEALTH °* BOARD PLEASED The 21 states reporting, which bhave a combined population of ap proximately 85 million, had n; aver-- age annual death .rate of 119 per 1000 people for the period while the state of llinois had an average rate of 11.4. The rate in lllinois was low-- er, also, than that of any other state in the union with a 1920 population of 3,500,000 or more, the nearest ri-- vals in this respect being Ohio and Michigan, with rates of 11.6 and 11.8 respectively. All of the other states oT ~this© group, which ~include Mas-- sachusctts, New York and Pennsyl-- vania, bad an average annual mor-- tality of more than 12 per 1000 peo ple. "The significance of the lower rate in lilinois 'is difficult for the aqyer-- age person to appreciate," said Dr. Isaac D. Rawlings, state health com-- missioner, in« commenting on the sit-- uation. "The slight difference of 2 tenths of a point between the I!li-- nois and Obip rates, for example, means that nearly 4000 people who are now alive in this state would be diad and buried had the Ohio rate prevailed in lllinois. In a state the size of lMinois a decline of one tenth of one point in the annual mortality Health Dept.

In like manner the combined fatalities from a doz<n of the more important contagious diseases numbered nearly 24,000 less for the three years end-- ing with 1923 than for the preceding tritnninal. "lllinois is wiihout doubt one of the most healthfu! states in Amer lea, but she cannot bope to retain this splendid position without due regard to public health service. Last year, for instance, there was a gen-- eral rise in the mortality--rate in the United States but the margin of increase in lllinois was noticeably greater than it was in any other of the large citics, all of which make more generous . approprialoas for public health service than does 1!li-- nols, while the 1923 rate in New York where public health strvice is excellent, was identical with the 1922 rate.'
