108 Wingate—Importance of More Complete Vital Statistics. 
For a number of years the State Board of Health has asked to 
have laws enacted that can be enforced whereby more complete 
vital statistics can be obtained, and much time and study have 
been expended by members of that board in framing bills for 
our Legislature, all of which have failed to receive sufficient 
attention to become laws. 
Is not this subject of sufficient importance to enlist the coop¬ 
eration of this academy, and is it asking too much to urge you 
to give this matter your careful consideration, and to aid the 
State Board of Health in its efforts for better things?
