It is believed, however, that tlie values derived per- mit a considorahle margin for difference of opinion without altering the gene^^ conclusions which the figures suggest. The method may, moreover, suggest ways in which more accurate values eventually will be derived. The cal- culations involved appear in Tables 2 and 3. Starting with tlie original hst of preventable deaths (Table 1), an estimate has been made of the damage done by the different causes. This estimate is intended to give due w...eight to non-fatal illness, and the other damage factors already mentioned. The proportions of damage done as- signed to the diseases are, arranged in order of magnitude, as follows: tuber- culosis, 25 per cent. ; infants' diseases, 25 per cent. ; venereal diseases, 20 per cent. ; the four common contagious diseases of children, 15 per cent. ; typhoid fever, 5 per cent. ; other in- fectious diseases, 8 per cent. ; nutri- tional diseases, 1 per cent. ; and poison- ing by food, 1 per cent. These values have been multiplied by what seem appropriate factors rep- resenting preventability, cost of pre- vention, and tendency to become epidemic, the various steps of the computation appearing in Table 2.
