MORTALITY RATES.
SURVEY AT HOME. (British Official Wireless.) RUGBY, March. 15. The Registrar-General has published a report by the Government Actuary on the mortality experience of England and Wales in 1930, 1931, and 1932, which, in examination of the rates of mortality at individual ages, shows the great improvement in the vitality of the people which lias taken place at all but the most advanced ages. Investigation of mortality exqieri.ence with reference to the geographical situation reveals that London suburban areas are subject to a much lighter death rate than the country as a whole in respect of both sexes. It is found, in fact, when the figures are compared with those for other urban areas, that the outer ring of London is conspicuous for the lightness of its death rates over the whole span of life.
