In the lowest earnings group, under $450, the infant mortality rate was 117.1, while in the group $1,250 and over the rate was only 40. As the earnings of the father increased the infant mor- tality rate diminished. As compared with other cities studied hj the bureau a much larger proportion of families was in the higher wage groups— a fact which may in part explain the low general infant mortality. In Akron 13.2 per cent of the births were in the group over $1,250, as contrasted with 6.5, 6.4,... and 8.7 in New Bed- ford, Manchester, and Yfaterbury, respectively. GAINFUL EMPLOYMENT OF MOTHER. A comparatively small proportion of mothers were gainfully em- ployed. About one-fourth were gainfully employed during the year preceding the birth of their babies, but only 175, or 7.5 per cent, worked away from home. The mortality a,mong infants whose mothers were gainfully employed during pregnancy was higher than for infants of mothers not gainfully employed, 107.4, contrasted with 77.2. For gainful employment of the mother after the birth of the infant, the numbers were too small to be significant.
