Typhoid fever 13.86 Measles 9.01 Scarlet fever 4.87 Whooping cough 10.11 Diphtheria and croup 16.30 Tuberculosis (all forms) 144.52 Cancer and other malignant tumors 80.27 Cerebral hemorrhage, apoplexy 78.91 Acute endocarditis and organic diseases of the heart 153.65 Pneumonia (all forms) 152.98 Acute nephritis and Bright's disease 101.63 The death rate from diseases of the nervous system is of particular interest. The average annual rate per 100,000 of the population for the years 1916, 1917, 1918 and 1919 was as follows: Encephalitis 1.0 Meningitis (total) 8.17 Locomotor ataxia 2.27 Other diseases of the spinal cord (total ) 8.57 Cerebral hemorrhage, apoplexy 80.57 Softening of the brain 1.25 Paralysis without specified cause 7.65 General paralysis of the insane 6.77 Other forms of mental alienation 2.17 Epilepsy 4.07 Chorea .10 Other diseases of the nervous system 3.85 This shows a total death rate for nervous and mental diseases of 126.44 per 100,000. It is a fairly reasonable assumption that of the above, the following, at least, may be classified as having been definitely associated with psychoses: _Rate per 100,000_ Encephalitis 1.0 Meningitis 8.17 Softening of the brain 1.25 General paralysis of the insane 6.77 Other forms of mental alienation 2.17
