DEATHS IN
NEW YORK
DECREASE
_J
1923 Figures Lowest of
Any Large City in
the World.
FEWER CHILDREN DIE
Infantile Rate Drops De-
spite Terrible Living
Conditions.
By ROBERT T. SMALL
Copyright by The Gan Antonio Light.
New York. Jan. 3.— Two months ago
the upper half of New York was ap-
palled at a report showing how the-
lower half lived. The revelation of
slum coaditiou* was one of the most
shocking things which bad come to
the metropolis in a decade.
Today there has come n revelation
equally startling and in a sense con-
tradictory. It ia the statement by the
health department that New York will
show for 1923 probably the lowest
death rate of any large city iu the
world.
Despite the revolting conditions of
muny Motions of the teeming East
Side it is announced that contagious
diseases. Mpecially among children
have . virtually been wiped out.
Diphtheria onee the dread of every
mother is about to be erased from
consideration. The death rate front
the disease has become all but negligi-
ble. This has been accomplished it is
stated through the Schick testing sys-
tem and th injections of toxin-antitox-
in to approximately 300.000 children
in the city during the last five years.
Kate Is 11.72 Per 1000.
"This favorable result" says the
health report "leads us to assume an
optimistic attitude as to the total ex-
tinction in the near future of diphthe-
ria as n cause of death among children
of-th is city.”
The past year has shown also a
tremendous drop in the death rate
from other child diseases sueli as
measles scarlet fever and whooping
cough. Including diphtheria the re-
duction iu the number of deaths dur-
ing the year was 1227.
The year just closed was the health;
iest New York has known in the 125
years since the registration of the
causes of death wns begun. The rate
was 11.72 per 1000 of population. It
is estimated that preventive measures
of health preservation and sanitation
resulted in the saving of more than
320.000 lives during the year.
Some European cities have claimed
in tbo past a fractionally lower death
rate than that shown for New York
in 1923 but th.- health department
here does not believe that the health
statiitidsTiavt bben comhiW with the
Came enre which has been taken in
this city. In any event they feel that
the showing made in New York under
i the most difficult honaiug. condi-
tion* is one of which the entire na-
' tion should be proud.
Infant tie Rate Smaller.
New York is the dumping ground
of European immigrants. ’They come
here in the thousands and most of
them huddle together in the hovels of
I the East Side. They come with vary-
ing ideals of health and strange and
incongruous customs of life. That New
York has been able to assimilate these
people and maintain the sanitary con-
dition* which have made the low
death rate possible is an achievement
vhi h augurs well for tbo prolonga-
tion of human life in the future.
The feature of the vital statistics
I for 1923 wb'ch gives greatest joy to
I the health officers of thee ity is the
I reduction shown all along the Une in
I the death rate . mong children. Twcu-
I tv-five rears ago more than 200 out
I of every 10<>0 children lu>rn in the < ity
I died in infancy. During 1923 there
I were but 6G death* tn the 1000. This
I lowering of the infantile death rate
I baa bMn a- • nlUhed in the face ot
I the most terrible living conditions.
I where it has b<en shown that ns many
I as fourteen persona adults and chila-
I Ten alike have been counselled to live
I in two small rooms.
I Cancer Causes Concent.
I Middle and old age have not fared
I s.yywell as the children. The disease
I ylPh is giving thp authorities the
l/gcatest concern is cancer. It is
I .Readily ipcreasin: despite the mil-
llions of dollars that arc being snent
I in research ami i vperimentation. Even
I for ilte new X-ray apparatus an-
I pounced for the first time today the
I public has betn cautioned not to ex-
I pect too much. The new lamp prom-
I ises a quickening of treatment but it
I remains to b" seen if it will be more
I efficacious. During 1923 there avere
I 343 more deaths from cancer iu New
■ York than in 1922.
I Chronic degenerative diseases such
Ia« organic heart and kidney nffee-
■ lions and hardening of the arteries
I also showed a tremendous gnin. re-
I suiting in 1174 more deaths in 1923
I th-e th« year before.
I No explanation is given ns to the
■ causes of these increases except that
I medical science has not yet devised
■ the best means of dealing with them.
I Healthier children it is hoped will
■ grow into healthier adults and thus in
■ tu.' cud prove less vulnerable to the
| maladies which now take such a heavy |
■ toll of middle and old age.

Commodity News Notes
Peanuts.
Suffolk Y'a„ Jan. 5. —This city
strengthened'its claim during 1923 to
be the peanut center of America. The
volume of peanut business totaled
$12000000. Thia is ISJOC.OOg more
than in the pre-war year of 1913.
Silk.
New York Jan. 3.—Four special
trains under armed guirds carrying
.$19800000 worth of silk from the
Orient arj due to arrive here today.
The silk was shipped from Japan to
Seattle.
Non-Ferrous Metals.
Joplin. Mo. Jan. 3—The production
of zinc ore for 1923 in the fields of
Missouri Oklahoma and Kansas to-
taled 694.013 tons or 124.023 tons
more than the previous high mark
reached in 1920. Lead ore produced
totaled 90000 tons or 365 J tons less
than was mined in 1922.
Oil.
San Francisco Jan. s.—California
oil production is expected to increase
due to new drilling operations and
the opening of shut-in production in
the Midway-Sunset and Elk Hills dis-
tricts. About 2000 wells idle since last
summer are gradually being put in
production again.
Boston. Jan. 3.—Efforts are being
made to induce Henry Ford to accept
another site from the one chosen for
his new plant in Charlestown which
is now u.-ed as a public playground.
Considerable resentment is expected
ovyr its conversion to industrial pur-
poses. For.l lias been invited to estab-
lish his plant in East Boston.
New Orleans. Jan. 4.—Mills belong-
ing to the Southern Pine Association
reported a decrease of 25.5 per cent in
orders last week while shipments fell
off 44.9 per cent mid production 48.3
per cent. This was attributed to the
effects of the holidays. Orders totaled
f>2.816.75l feet shipments 41.856600
mid production 38.619.J26 feet.
Clothing.
St. Louis. Jan. s.—Local clothing
manufacturers reported today that
raeir sales last year exceeded those of
1922 by 20 to 45 per cent while ad-
vance orders for delivery this spring
arc fully up to those of .asi year.
Paper.
Philadelphia Jan. s.—The Globe
Ticket Company which makes a spe-
cialty of printing all forms of theater
cafe and check room tickets has just
opened its new plant which has a
norma! capacity of .'loo'lo.l'oo tickets
a day. The company's business in the
last year showed an increase of 35 per
cent over 1922.
Steel.
Pittsburg Jan. s.—Demand for oil
well casing tubing and line pipe still
is light but there is pressure for de-
liveries of butt weld pipe in which
jobbers stocks are low. Makers pre-
dict that 1924 will be as good a year
for oil country goods as 1023 was.
Clothing.
Pittsburg. Jan. s.—Clothing sales
ms' lioldiug up betterthan expected
under the stimulus of price reductions
and merchant* hop* to cicar their
shelves for spring lines within 30 days.
Coal.
Detroit. Jan. 3.—The soft coal mar-
ket is upset here. Nearly all indus-
trial plants have abnormal reserve
stocks and are buying distress stocks
from dealers at their ovn prices. The
increased sales of coal and coke by
the Ford Motor Company at 40 per
cent under prevailing rates to outsid-
ers as well as to 35000 employes’
families is becoming a greater factor
each winter.
Philadelphia Jan. 3.—-In the heavy
leather market signs of restoring con-
fidence are in evidence. Some fair sized
lots have been taken at iow prices.
Belting butts arc heavy and belt man-
ufacturers have reduced prices 10 per
cent. This has stimulated orders for
first quarter deliveries.
BONDS STILL STRONG
Day's Frature Is Heavy Dealing in
Market Street Railway Bonds.
Oonyrlght hy The .Suu Antonio Light.
New York Jan. 3.—The bond mar-
ket continued today the show of
strength initiated yesterday. High
grade securities were firm and there
was substantial advances in the in-
vestment issues. The feature was the
heavy dealings in Market Street Rail-
way first 5s and the same company's
11 per cent notes both selling within
a point or less of par. This activity
was in resnonse to the announcement
that $13000000 in refunding bonds
will be offered next week to take up
the .$4000000 of sixes and the $9-
000000 of fives tile former maturing
in April and tile latter in September.
Both issues have been strong all week
during that time the 5s having gained
more than 4 points and the Gs nbont
2 1-2.
The strength in Brooklyn Manhattan
Tiansit 6s which made a new high
also on large sales. On the week these
bonds advanced between 2 1-2 and 3
points reflecting continued good cam.
ings.
Intcrboro issues have been dull and
heavy. Third Avenue adjustments
on the other hand tire up 2 points on
Ihe week notwithstanding the fact
that the last statement was not quite
favorable. In bonds of a higher grade
there has bion good buying of Hud-
sou and Manhattan refunding 5s which
at the market yield over G per cent and
are amply protected by earnings.
In the speculative rails the New
York. West Chester and Boston 4 l-2s
up more than 4 points on the week
held their gain* today while there was
a better market for other New Haven
obligutidns. notably the debenture 6s.
St. I.ouis-SanFraDeitco bonds arc al.-o
all up ou tbo week from the invest-
meat issues the prior lien 4s. as and
tie to the speculative adjustments and
heme Of. Tile comparttiv* neglect
of these lionds for so long is bard to
explain. Eries were firm today with
little price change.
Among industrials. Cubt Cane Sugar
$s and convertible 7s sold at their
recent highs. The week's advance is
greatest in the 7s. In tbo high grade
list the feature again today was the
strength in the new American _Tele-
phone and Telegraph debenture 5 l-2s
above the issue price.
In fort-ign bonds the French govern-
ment obligations reacted fractionally
under last night's high but were still
surprisingly firm. As a matter of
fact on the week these bonds are prac-
ticnlly unehanged.
Next week is expected to see a large

COU) WEATHER CAUSES
SMALL SUPPLIES AND
SLOW TRADE IN CATTLE
More Than 17000 Hogs

Chicago Jan. s.—Supplies were
comparatively large at the locaVynrck.
Trailing was slow in rattle :uj<l sheep
however as mott ei the stuff di-
rect to packers from other trading
>oints. In the hog bouse more than
17.000 wete held over from the pre-
vious day. but demand was active nn<l
tbo market was higher. Packers had
nearly half of the estimated 150 U
sheep.
Receipts were 1000 cattle; 11.000
hogs; J3OO sheep and 300 calves.
Cattle trade nnly a nominal one
today. The cold weather kept buyers
away from the pens and no choice
stuff was offered. Compared with a
week ago. prime steers were generally
25<£50 rents higher. Best yearlings'
made $12.23 during the periol. Cows
and heifers also were 23(1150 cents
higher for the week and some sales
showed more gain. Canners cloned
strong while calves were up as much
as XI in spots.
Trading was active after the start
and most of the sales were 13^23
cents above the levels of the day be-
fore. Prime heavy butchers were in
good demand and they made $7.30 for
the dav's top. A week ago today
the best hogs sold at $7.25. Sellers
had only about 3000 unsold hogs at
the close.
Only a small number of lambs sold
today. Soipe natives went at $13.50
and this was called steady. Fat lambs
closed the week 25&&40 cents higher
while some of the heavier stock gained
50(^75 cents during the period. Fee<|.
ere were un 25 rents ami aged kill-
ing sheep advanced about 50 cent.

New York. Jan. s.—Declaring bitn-
selC in favor of tax reduction and op-
posrd to the soldier bonne. Senator
William E. Borah of Idaho in an ad-
dress today before the National Re-
publican Club of New York said this
issue could not bo avoided or side-
stenned.
"One i* cither for tax reduction
or be is against it” he said. “One
ba* a right to be for the bonus or
bo has a right to be for tax reduction.
Bur he cannot bo for both.
"Ton eunnot take off a temporary
burden of SHO.ttGO.fW. or 5150.000-
1100 and lav on a permanenr bunion
or obligation of SJ IkHWOO.OOII to ^5.-
<xx .1160.000 and call it tax roducu.e:.
It would be a dangerous political ex-
periment. It.would defeat any party
that would undertake it.”
Senator Borah quoted figures Indi-
cating tbo rate of increase of taxes
in tbo last eight or ten years declar-
ing they "represented the most search-
ing tragedy of American life.” Jn
eastern industrial canters tbo situa-
tion is serious enough bo asserted
but in the agricultural regions of the
IVest. "they ate losing faith in tbc
government” because of unbearable
taxes and “the mud saturnalia of
speeding” in which the speaker de-
clared the government continued to
indulge.
Tax Burdens Affect Homes.
"What do stjeb tax burdens mean?
They moan imperilled and forfeited
homes they mean dissathdi.d and dis-
contented domestic life they mean less
educational advantages for the cooking
Citizen they mean separated and de-
moralized families they mean energy
thwarted and onterprKe sta rllized and
lust of all. they mean thriftlcsoncss nud
improvidence and moral breakdown of
a great and proud cituenship.”
"Have wo the courage to do nr
duty?” Senator Borah asked. "I beg
the people to understand that it is
not alone a question of reducing the
taxes. It is also this: Can we throw
off this national disease of extrava-
gance and waste?'!
Congress is the center of fire in the
tax cut I’introvwsy. the. sqieaker on id.
hut not Congress alone is divided oil
the isitic.
“It seems to me that the adminis-
tration is not presenting a united
front” the senator continued. "At n
time when economy is the crying need
and when the morale of the forces
fighting for economic relief is of the
utmost moment the demands which arc
coming in for a greater army nnd for
heavy additional expenditures for mil-
itary purposes should not be pre-
sented.
"As 1 understand there Jr nearly
$l(M)tiOC'.(MM> additional for military
and armament purposes being naked
for. I do not. think the additional
expenses- are necessary or justifiable.
“If we build up our economic. power
give life and energy to our farmers
and business pwn. make it possible for
the average citizen to get ahead to
save something to tducatc bis child-
ren wo will b- far more* invincible
than if wn have great armies and a
nation criwM oodiiomlcaMjr
"The administration has done a fine
inspiring thing iu putting our a call
for tux reduction for th" curtailment
of expenditures. But nothing has dis-
couraged the supporters more than
this grabbing for public funds by tbo
different departments of the govern-
ment. Who can deny si soldier boy
and ask him to share with bis- coun-
try the question of the matter of de-
pression or prosperity if the proposed
savings are to be eaten up by waste-
ful burdens?
Bonn Osnly Obstacle.
•The great obstacle to tax reduc-
tion it appears is the proposal tor
a bonus for each service man. If we
could consider tiie bonus purely in the
light or material or financial or it
our real purpose is to assist the soldier
in that way I can think of no greater
benefit for these men than that which
would be derived from a betterment
of the economic condition throughout
the country.
“It is five years since the war.
These young men are back in civil life.
They cannot succeed ’ hen business
agriculture and industry are embar-
rassed or discouraged. Tbo pittance
-ranted them individually would mean
nothing in the sum total of their well-
being but anything and everything
which contributes to the rehabilitation
and reversal of economic and buisness
conditions throughout the country will
be a permanent prosperity to the
tjoldier fur beyond anything which
mere individual aid would mean. .
• But there is a feeling prevalent
in this country a feeling shared by
thousands of ex-service men that this
pittance this belated dole is ucither
compeu.sation nor gratitude that the
exchange -the roldicr is entitled to re-
ceive must and will come not from
the coffers of the rovrrnincnt out from
the hearts and minds ot the people

LOWER GRAIN RATES
MAY WORK HARDSHIP
ON SOUTH’S FARMERS
Most Witnesses in Atlan-
ta Hearing Oppose
Reduction.
Atlanta. Gsl Jan. s.—Taking nf
f«"tiuron.T hy ibt Intwtste Commert*
ComtnUsion bearing "pmenutiyns
ot fonthern carriers an-f farmers en
tbo question of th advisability of low
ering grain rates from th* West is
expected to be completed her* toda’.
The b’aring bezan last Thursday.
Most ot the witnesses appearing be-
fore the commissiou opposed the pro-
posed reduction in rates contendins
that the lowering of the rates vouhl
tend to discourage the diversification
of crops apd in other ways work a
hardship on the sontherti farmer.
Th" Alabama Farm Bureau will Mb
the Interstate Commerev Committor’
to grant grain rate reductions in tb-
South if a reduction in the wes’ern
rate is made in order to preserve th*
present relationship between the two
sections. M. M. Caskie. bead of the
transportation division of the bureau
announced last nigut.
XX’itnesacs representing rhe Ameri-
can Short Line Association testified
yesterday they believed no benefi'
would result for souther# fanners if
a reduction in grain rates is ordered.
E. J. Perry banker. Bainbridge.
Ga. expressed the opinion that if the
cost of shipping grain is reduced 2
cents a huahel the 'leerease would b*-
absorbed by the retailers and the small
consumer would not get the benefit.
H. G. Hasting Atlanta seed denier
exprossed the same op-nloa. and add-
ed that a practice ot absorbing rate
reductions by dealers might have a
tendency to make the farmers radical.
