London's Light Death Rate
BETTER THAN REST OF BRITAIN. (British Official Wireless). Received Monday, 9.20 p.m. t RUGBY, Mar. 16. 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 tho examination of the rates of mortality at individual ages shows a great improvement in the vitality of tho people which has taken place at ail but the most advanced ages. The investigation of mortality experience with reference to geographical situation reveals that the London and suburban areas are subject to a much lighter death rate than tho country as a whole in respect of both sexes. It is found, in fact, when the figures are compared with those for the other urban areas that the outer ring of London is conspicuous for the lightness'of death rates over the whole span of life.
