NoW Yolk. N. Y. — Parents or
other adults are largely to blame
for the aeciifental death by fire-
arms of more than 500 American
children a year, according to the
statisticians of the Metropolitan
Llfo Insurance company. For,
they explain, loaded weapons be-
ing left where children can get at
them cause much of this losrf of
child life. Children constitute a-
bout one - fifth of all the persons
accidentally killed by firearms in

New York. N, Y. — The lives of
more than a million white Ameri-
cans were saved in 1942 alone, us
the result of the general improve-
ment fil mortality In the United
States since the start of the cen-
tury, according to the statisticians
of the Mctro|K>litan Life Insur-
ance company. The lives saved
totalled 1.072,000, a number near-
ly equal to the 1.210,000 deaths re-
ported among the white popula-
tion in' 1942. This saving pro-
vided many thousands of men
and women for the armed service
and for the home front.
The control of pneumonia and
tuberculosis was an outstanding
factor In this record of life con-
servation, the statisticians say.
This saving is a consequence of
the continued fight against the
dig a*«—hv Ihi' nrflanircrf public

ing standard of living.
