Xew York - A gain of seven years in life expectancy within one short decade is the encour aging record of the remarkable advances in Xegro health. This rcj)ort on the i)rogress of the h'lst decade is made by Louis I. Dublin, second vice-presiden^ and statistician of the iletro politan Life Insurance Comp any, in a September HEAD ER’S DIGEST article, con ch-used from the BALTIMOUE srxDAY srx. These' advances, which leav ing much to be done, the writer says, provide an excellent an swer to those critics behind the Iron Curtain who challenge the sincerity of our democracy. In the decade between 1!}.'57 and 1!J47, the mortality of col ored males was i-ediu-ed by 27 pei'cent, that of females by ‘2S l>er cent. For whites the reduc- ti(ui was 17 and 2(i ])er c(‘u1. As a result, the average lengtli of life of a Xegro in the {’nited today is greater than that of a white in most of the Centi'al and Eastern European countries. These gains have been achieved by extraordinary ^d \anccs in public health i'acili ties, better nutrition, and sue), measures as the national scliool luncJi plan through which many million children rcceive notirish ing lunches. The Xigro lia> eagerly taken athantaijeof the new facilities, .Mr. Dublin say^ .Many pi'oblenis still* ri-aiain however: TIk' over al! healtl status of the colored population lags over ‘JO year's bi'hind tie r('st of the country. The Xegri^ death rate is strikingly highci 'than the white death rate. And though ten per cent of tiu* pop ulation is Xegi'o, only two i)ci- cent of the jihysiciiins in aetivt [iT'actic(‘ ai'c of this rac('.
