THE DUTY OP A NEWSPAPER Unfavorable criticisms of news papers are frequently made on the ground that they misrepresent things That is true They Ire qnently do But the newspaper which is trying faithfully to give the reading public the news makes remarkably few mistakes when it is considered how many state ments it is called upon to make in eachissue Those who are in the habit of charging inaccuracy in newspapers should remember two things First the average news paper makes certainly not less than ten thousand statements a year If none of these were er roneous or slightly misleading it would be astounding And sec ondly it is customary for one mis take in a newspaper to provoke more criticism than the nine thousand ninehundred and nine tynine correct statements And this very fact is much in the newspapers favor If the mis takes were so common they would not excite so much comment The record for accuracy and truth as held by a standard newspaper of good repute and enjoying a wide circulation among aa intelligent clientalle would put to blush any stump speaker platform lecturer or magazine lecturer in the land We once knew of a

Race and older age mortality evidence from Union Army veterans

"This paper uses the records of the Union Army to compare the older age mortality experience of the first black and white cohorts who reached middle and late ages in the twentieth century. Blacks faced a greater risk of death from all causes, especially in large cities, from infectious and parasitic diseases, from genito-urinary disease, and from heart disease, particularly valvular heart disease. Blacks' greater risk of death was the result both of the worse conditions in which they lived at the time of their deaths and of their lifelong poorer nutritional status and higher incidence of infectious disease. Compared to the 1821-40 black cohort, the 1841-50 black cohort was both under greater stress at a young age and had higher older age mortality rates"--National Bureau of Economic Research web site.
