Report, 1954 INTRODUCTION The Division of Vital Statistics provides a wide range of service to the general public and to other branches of Government. Its duties fall into two main categories — one relating to matters of civil registration, and the other to statistical service on behalf of the entire Health Branch. The former duties comprise the administration of the " Vital Statistics Act," the " Marriage Act," the " Change of Name Act," and certain sections of the " Wills Act." The statistical services consist of providing detailed analyses regarding births, deaths, marriages, stillbirths, adoptions, divorces, and of other data stemming from the registration functions, as well as providing the extensive statistical service required for the administration of other divisions of the Health Branch. This Report is divided into three parts. Part I contains a summary of vital statistics for 1954, and in most cases figures for previous years have also been included for comparative purposes. Graphs are provided in some instances to demonstrate more readily the year-to-year changes in the statistics. The reader is reminded that considerable care should be exercised when studying mortality tables which include statistics for the years prior to 1950. It was in this year that a major change in the death classification system took place, with the implementation of the Sixth Revision of the International Statistical Classification of Diseases, Injuries, and Causes of Death. As a result, not only were there amendments within the International Statistical Classification, but also the method of selecting the underlying cause of death in a joint-cause sequence was changed. Previously, the underlying cause was determined by the application of arbitrary rules of selection, whereas under the new procedure the certifying physician's preference is accepted. Tables covering birth order data, place of occurrence of non-transport accidental deaths, and age at death for infant mortality have been added to Part I this year to increase the usefulness of this section. As in 1953, many of the rates are given in the form of five- year averages from 1921 to date in order to present a more comprehensive picture of the trend of events and to reduce the effect of the chance variations observed in annual figures. Part II presents a descriptive summary of the activities of the Division in performing the registration and statistical functions. Part III of the Report contains a series of detailed tables covering the births, deaths, marriages, adoptions, and divorces which occurred during 1953. A separate set of tables deals with the Indian population of the Province. An Appendix to the Report sets forth the causes of death by sex and age according^ to the Detailed List of the International Statistical Classification. Mortality tables elsewhere in the Report present data which are generally classified according to the Intermediate List only. In order to make the Appendix more useful, sub-totals have been added to show certain groups of categories collectively. 11 T 12 DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH AND WELFARE Map Showing Statistical Publication Areas, British Columbia VITAL STATISTICS REPORT, 1954 T 13 PART I.—GENERAL STATISTICAL SUMMARY BY PLACE OF RESIDENCE POPULATION CHARACTERISTICS OF THE PEOPLE OF BRITISH COLUMBIA The largest increase in the population since 1948 was registered in the Province this year. An additional 36,000 people brought the population from the 1953 figure of 1,230,000 to 1,266,000, a 3-per-cent increase. A comparison of the age distribution of the population in 1954 with that ten years ago shows several interesting changes. In 1944, 22.5 per cent of the population was under 15 years of age, while in 1954 the proportion had increased to 28.1 per cent. The group aged 15 to 70 years represented 72.6 per cent of the population in 1944 and only 65.0 per cent in 1954. Those 70 years and over made up 4.9 per cent of the whole population in 1944, while by 1954 the proportion they represented had increased by 2 per cent to 6.9 per cent.

There were 32,946 births registered or 26.0 per 1,000 population, compared with the rate of 25.8 for 1953. Since 1944 there has been an increase of almost 75 per cent in the number of births registered annually. Despite the record in British Columbia's birth rate in 1954, this Province had the second lowest rate in Canada, Prince Edward Island having had a rate of 25.9. The average for Canada was 28.7. Deaths numbered 12,414 in the Province in 1954, the rate being 9.8 per 1,000 population. Since 1948 there has been a small but steady decline in the death rate, with the exception of a slight increase in 1952. When it is realized that over the six-year period the population 60 years and over increased at a rate higher than that for the total population, the improvement in the death rate increases in significance. Our Province had the highest death rate in Canada in 1954, the Canadian average being 8.2. In 1954 the number of marriages in the Province declined to its lowest point since 1945, there being 307 fewer marriages in 1954 than in 1953. The rate was at its lowest point since 1938, being only 8.7 per 1,000 population in 1954. Both Ontario and Alberta had marriage rates higher than British Columbia, while the rates in all other Provinces were lower.

The rate is highest among those mothers under 15 years of age, there being a gradual decrease to the 30- to 34-year age-group with an increase thereafter. It will be noted that figures are not shown in Table 6b for the years before 1931. Indian illegitimate births were not tallied separately during part of this period, only the figures for the total population being available.

A fairly marked increase in the proportion of deaths occurring in hospital was also noted, reversing last year's decrease. When Indians are excluded, the proportion of births in hospital is 99.3, and of deaths, 67.5. A hospital is defined as " an institution operated for the regular accommodation of in-patients in which medical and (or) surgical care is provided, and which is recognized as a hospital or nursing home by a Federal agency or by the Government of the Province in which the hospital is located, or by a municipality duly authorized under the laws of the Province. The term ' hospital' includes institutions for tuberculosis and mental diseases, but excludes institutions which provide custodial care and (or) domiciliary care only."

The value of these rates as an indication of the effect of mortality during the periods is limited, however, as they do not reflect changes in the force of mortality for the two sexes nor for the various individual age-groups. The figures in Table 8 illustrate more completely the true state of affairs, representing as they do the age-sex specific death rates for the population. It may be noted from this table that while the mortality rate for females remained almost unchanged at 7.6 per 1,000 females in 1954, the rate for males dropped from 12.2 to 11.9. While the rate for females has varied within rather narrow limits from 7.5 to 8.3 during the period covered, the rate for males has ranged from a low of 9.6 to a high of 12.5. Again this year male mortality consistently exceeded female mortality in each of the age-groups. The characteristic pattern of mortality in the various age-sex specific groups was followed; namely, a high rate for those under 1 year, followed by a much lower rate in the 5- to 9-year groups, with a gradual increase thereafter. Mortality among males under 1 continued to decline, and this year was down to 30.0 per 100,000 population at that age. There was a slight increase in female infant mortality, however, after the marked drop from 1952 to 1953. Slight changes were noted in the figures for other age-groups. A comparison of the age-sex specific death rates in British Columbia and Canada as a whole reveals several points of interest. Taking the age-specific rates for males, it appears that the British Columbia experience shows lower mortality rates at the extremes of age (under 15 and over 70) than for the country as a whole, but higher or equal rates for all but one of the intervening age-groups. For females the rates are lower in British Columbia for those under 5 and over 55 but higher or equal to the Canadian rates for the ages between 5 and 55. Thus, considering both sexes together, it may be seen that there are two factors involved in the higher death rate for the Province as compared with T 22 DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH AND WELFARE Canada as a whole. The first has been mentioned previously and is, of course, the higher proportion of older-aged people in British Columbia as compared to Canada. The second factor is the higher death rates in most of the adult age-groups. The effect of these higher rates is much smaller than that of the higher proportion of the aged in the Province, for not only are the death rates at the early- and middle-adult ages considerably lower than those for the older group, but also the proportion of the Province's population at those ages is also smaller.

PRINCIPAL CAUSATIVE FACTORS OF MORTALITY IN BRITISH COLUMBIA For some time the same four causes have held their position as the leading causes of death in the Province, and only once has there been a change in their order. Of the four, only one, accidents, can be considered as other than a degenerative cause. The first three are degenerative conditions—namely, heart disease, malignant neoplasms, and vascular lesions of the central nervous system—and account for 64 per cent of all deaths. The combined death rate from these causes was 627.8 per 100,000 population in 1954. Ten years ago these conditions accounted for 52.1 per cent of all deaths, yielding a death rate of 541.5. In Canada as a whole the death rate from these three causes was 492.6 per 100,000 population. Accidents caused 7.3 per cent of all deaths this year, the rate being 71.2, compared to 58.6 for all Canada. This was the lowest accident death rate since 1945. The death rates for heart disease and intracranial lesions declined slightly from the 1953 figure, while the rate for malignancies increased to a new high of 166 deaths per 100,000 population. The pneumonia death rate was 41.0 per 100,000 population, the highest since 1949 and well above the 1953 figure of 35.4. The rate for Canada was 31.2. The rate of deaths from diseases of early infancy was substantially the same as in 1953, when the lowest rate on record occurred. Deaths from diseases of the arteries were up markedly this year, and the rate was at a record high of 20.5. The rates of deaths from suicide and from congenital malformations were the same this year and represented a decline in each case from the 1953 figures. The steady downward trend in tuberculosis mortality continued in 1954. The rate of deaths from this cause reached a new low of 9.7 per 100,000 population.

For both chronic rheumatic and hypertensive heart disease there were more deaths among females than among males. For arteriosclerotic and degenerative heart disease, the excess of deaths of males was highest at the younger ages, and gradually became less marked as age progressed. While the death rate from chronic rheumatic and arteriosclerotic heart disease in this Province was more than a third higher than that for Canada as a whole, the rates for hypertensive heart disease and other diseases of the heart were fairly comparable with the national averages. Higher crude death rates for these and other degenerative causes are to be expected in British Columbia by virtue of our larger proportion of older people.

These three causes — namely, vascular lesions affecting the central nervous system, diseases of the arteries, and nephritis—together caused 1,663 deaths in 1954. Compared with 1953 data, male deaths from these causes showed an increase while female deaths declined. Mortality from diseases of the arteries increased by almost 25 per cent for males and over 11 per cent for females. Almost 90 per cent of the mortality from this group of causes occurred at age 60 and over.

MORTALITY FROM CANCER The cancer death rate was up substantially in 1954 and reached a new high of 166.1 deaths per 100,000 population. More than one-sixth of all deaths in the Province were ascribed to cancer. Deaths from cancer of the trachea and of the bronchus and lung not specified as secondary increased by 29 per cent. Malignancies in the category " other and unspecified sites " were responsible for almost 20 per cent more deaths in 1954 than in 1953. There were moderate increases in the number of deaths from cancer of the other sites. The rate of deaths from cancer in Canada as a whole was 129.8 per 100,000 population. However, as is the case with mortality from the cardiovascular-renal causes, the more severe rate in British Columbia is due to the larger proportion of persons in the older age-groups where the incidence of degenerative diseases is high.

These deaths are first classified according to the external cause and then they are again classified according to the nature of the injury. Statistics showing both types of classification are presented in the detailed tables of Part III of this Report. However, it is also informative to cross-classify deaths from accidents and violence by the nature of the injury and the external cause of the injury. Such a cross-classification is presented in Table 14, which follows. Declines were registered in the number of deaths in 1954 from the 1953 figures for all of the major types of injury. The principal group last year, injury by poisons, was third most important this year, the number of deaths having dropped by 25 per cent. Deaths from burns increased substantially from 29 in 1953 to 53 in 1954. Table 14.—Mortality from Accidents and Violence, by Nature of Injury, British Columbia, 1954 Int.

The total for both sexes was at its lowest since 1949. The major cause of accidental and violent deaths, motor-vehicle accidents, took 7 per cent more lives this year among males but slightly fewer among females. For both sexes, almost 22 per cent of all accidental and violent deaths resulted from motor-vehicle accidents, compared to 19 per cent in 1953. For males, over a quarter of the deaths by motor-vehicle accident occurred in the 20- to 29-year age-group. Suicide mortality ranks second as a cause of accidental and violent deaths. Almost four times as many males took their own lives as did females. Unlike most of the other accidental and violent causes of death, injury by fall takes almost as many female lives as it does male lives. The greater proportion of these deaths in 1954 occurred among those over 70 years of age, 58 per cent for males and 86 per cent for females. Mortality from both these causes was considerably less for both sexes than in 1953. Drowning was in fourth place among the causes being considered, having taken ninety-five lives. Unlike falls, drowning as a cause of death is a particular hazard among the younger segment of the population. For falls, 5 per cent of the deaths occurred among those under 30, while for drowning 64 per cent of the deaths were in this age-group. The following table shows two important features of accident mortality, the fourth leading cause of death, as compared with mortality from the first three leading causes— heart disease, cancer, and intracranial lesions of vascular origin. For the latter causes, deaths are few in number during the younger ages but increase rapidly through adulthood and old age. In comparison, mortality from accidents is a fairly constant risk throughout life, and males are affected to a far greater extent than females, there being more than three times as many males as females dying accidentally. - T 30 DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH AND WELFARE Table 15.—Mortality from Accidents and Violence by External Cause, Sex, and Age-group, British Columbia, 1954 Intermediate Int.

Place of Occurrence of Injury for Non-transport Accidents The following table has been added this year to give an indication of the location of accidental deaths occurring in other than transport accidents. From this table it may be seen that by far the greatest proportion of these accidents occur in the home, a third for the males involved and almost three-fifths for females. For males, an additional 23 per cent occur in industry. A considerable proportion occur in other and unspecified places.

M ft - T 32 DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH AND WELFARE MORTALITY FROM PNEUMONIA This cause moved up to fifth place in the list of leading causes of death this year, replacing diseases of infancy. While deaths from each of the types of pneumonia shown in the table increased this year, most of the total increase resulted from a 22-per-cent jump in deaths from bronchopneumonia. The death rate was up from 35.4 per 100,000 population to 41.0. This was the second highest rate in Canada, New Brunswick having a rate of 41.9 deaths. Pneumonia is a serious cause of death amongst Indians, and for this reason Table 17 shows the data for the total population and for the non-Indian population.

This classification includes birth injuries, immaturity, asphyxia, infections of the new-born, and certain other less frequent conditions peculiar to early infancy. However, it is more meaningful when studying infant deaths to relate them to the number of live births which have occurred, and to consider at the same time other causes which result in infant deaths which do not fall within the more restricted group of diseases peculiar only to early infancy. For this reason, these conditions are discussed under the general heading of " Infant Mortality," beginning on page 33. MORTALITY FROM DISEASES OF THE ARTERIES The following table presents data regarding the seventh leading cause of death in the Province. It shows that the rate of deaths from diseases of the arteries has been consistently higher among males than among females, and that by far the greatest proportion of deaths from this cause occur among the group over 60, only 6.5 per cent being among those 59 and under.

For the first time, tuberculosis did not appear among the ten leading causes of death among the non-Indian population, although it appeared in last place for the total population. Deaths from this cause now represent only 1 per cent of all deaths. Only 9 of the total of 123 deaths were ascribed to non- pulmonary tuberculosis, thus 93 per cent of all tuberculosis deaths were pulmonary. The rate of tuberculosis mortality for the whole of Canada was 10.3 per 100,000 population.

The infant mortality rate dropped to 25.9 per 1,000 live births from last year's figure of 27.1, the third successive year of decline. The neo-natal mortality rate was down to 16.4 from the 1953 rate of 16.8. The rates for the Indian population increased somewhat, infant mortality being 105.2 deaths per 1,000 Indian live births, compared to 89.9 in 1953, and neo-natal mortality 30.6, as against 26.3 last year. Nevertheless, the 1954 rates for Indians are below the figures for any year prior to 1953. Among the more important causes of infant mortality, increases were registered in the number of deaths from pneumonia and postnatal asphyxia and atelectasis, while decreases occurred in deaths from congenital malformation, birth injuries, and immaturity. Among the Provinces of Canada, British Columbia had the lowest infant mortality rate, the Canadian average being 31.8 deaths per 1,000 live births. For most of the major causes, mortality among British Columbia infants was below the figures for Canada as a whole, two exceptions being postnatal asphyxia and atelectasis, and immaturity. The rate of death from injury at birth in this Province was one-third of that for the whole of Canada. With regard to neo-natal mortality, two Provinces, Nova Scotia and Manitoba, had rates slightly more favourable than British Columbia. Table 20 indicates an important feature of infant mortality; namely, the high rate during the first day of life compared to the remainder of the first year. For both sexes, over 28 per cent of all infant mortality occurred before the infant was 24 hours old, and an additional 30 per cent of total male infant mortality and 24 per cent of female infant mortality occurred in the following six days. Thus well over half of all infant mortality occurred before the infants were a week old. It may also be noted from this table that the least notable reductions in mortality have occurred for the periods mentioned, under one day and from one day to one week, the 1954 rates being about two-thirds of those for 1926-30 in each case. The most important declines in rates for infant mortality occurred among those over 6 months and among those from 1 week to 1 month old.

VITAL STATISTICS REPORT, 1954 T 37 MORTALITY FROM NOTIFIABLE DISEASES As Table 24 indicates, an increase of 7 per cent occurred in mortality from the notifiable diseases during 1954 compared with 1953. However, when the three most important causes—cancer, pneumonia, and tuberculosis, which have been the subject of previous discussions—are excluded from the total mortality figure for the notifiable diseases, there appears to have been a reduction of over 30 per cent in the mortality from the remaining causes. A marked reduction occurred in mortality from poliomyelitis, and smaller decreases were recorded for syphilis, measles, and influenza.

The same four chief causes of death took precedence in the group under 1 year old in 1954 as in 1953, namely, immaturity, congenital malformations, pneumonia, and postnatal asphyxia and atelectasis. Altogether these four causes accounted for almost two- thirds of infant mortality, immaturity alone causing almost a fifth of all infant deaths. In the age-group from 1 to 4 the leading cause of death, accidents, took 37 per cent of the lives lost, with pneumonia, congenital malformations, and malignant neoplasms following in that order and accounting for an additional 23.3 per cent of the deaths. Accidents and malignant neoplasms respectively are the first and second leading causes of death in the age-groups from 5 to 39, and together accounted for almost one- half of the mortality during this time of life. In the age-group from 40 to 49, malignant neoplasms replaced accidents as the leading cause of death, the latter cause being in third place after heart disease. Intra- T 38 DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH AND WELFARE cranial lesions of vascular origin appears for the first time as one of the four leading causes of death in this age-group. Nearly three-quarters of the deaths among those aged 40 to 49 were ascribed to the four causes mentioned. In the three age-groups following, the first and second leading causes, heart disease and malignant neoplasms, took over three-fifths of the fives lost at these ages. Accidents and vascular lesions accounted for an additional 15 per cent of the mortality among those aged 50 to 79. For those aged 80 and over, three-quarters of the deaths resulted from diseases of the heart, intracranial lesions, malignant neoplasms, or diseases of the arteries. When the four leading causes among the non-Indian population are considered, some minor changes occur in the order of the four leading causes at the younger ages, but for those 20 years and over the same causes hold precedence.

British Columbia this year had the lowest stillbirth rate in Canada, as has been the case since 1946.

Registration of births, deaths, and marriages has been mandatory in this Province since it was formed in 1872, and all registrations ever filed are preserved in the central office of the Division in Victoria. Volume of Registration—All Races.—Again in 1954, volume of registration exceeded that for the previous year, continuing the upward trend which has been unbroken since 1945. This year there was a 1 Vz -per-cent increase in total registration volume over the figure for 1953. In the period 1945 to 1954, volume has increased over 44 per cent for all types of registrations combined, but there has been a marked difference in the magnitude of the increase for the various types of registrations. Birth registrations, for example, have increased by 66 per cent, death registrations by 25 per cent, and marriage registrations by only 17 per cent. The greatest increase has occurred for registrations of adoptions, the number being 272 per cent higher in 1954 than in 1945. Divorces show the smallest increase, 12 per cent, the volume in 1954 being considerably less than that for the four years following 1945.

It may be noted from Table 3 that while there was an increase in the number of male Indian births registered in 1954 as compared with 1953, there was a decrease in the number of female births registered, with a net result of a decline in total births from 1,841 to 1,808. Again this year there was a reduction in the number of deaths registered for Indians, from the 420 registered in 1953 to 377. This was a 24-per-cent reduction. Of the total, 27 were delayed registrations. For the third successive year, volume of registration of marriages increased, though the amount of increase in 1954 T 50 DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH AND WELFARE was small. A total of 203 marriages were registered this year among Indians, 4 more than in 1953. Stillbirths registered numbered 21 (12 male, 8 female, and 1 for which sex was not stated).

For the first time in some years, registrations of births exceeded registrations of deaths, there being only 319 of the latter filed in 1954. This was a reduction of 39 from the figure for 1953 and marked the second successive year of decline. Marriages numbered 94, 16 below the 1953 figure of 110. There were 2 stillbirths registered, both females.

There were 9 fewer deaths registered, the number being down to 45 in 1954. Registrations of marriages remained substantially unchanged, numbering 58 in 1954, 1 less than in 1953. There were two Japanese stillbirths in the year, both females.

Over one-half of these are regular 50-cent searches. Non-revenue searches of current registrations represent 41 per cent of all searches, while searches for other Government departments make up 9 per cent of the total. Special $2 searches, which may be carried out on request when the date of the event is not known, accounted for less than 1 per cent of the searches carried out in 1954. As was the case for 1953, revenue searches outnumbered non-revenue searches by a small margin, 31,439 as compared to 30,921. Again this year, correspondence registered a substantial increase in volume, there having been 8 per cent more letters received than in 1953.

Certification.—Once again there has been a major increase in the volume of requests for certificates and other forms of certification received by the Division. Although the year 1953 was the previous peak year in this connection, the 1954 applications exceeded 1953 by fully 10 per cent. On many occasions throughout the year almost 300 separate applications for certification were received on a single day. Each application must be processed through the cash register, a search must be undertaken to locate the original registration on file with the Division, the desired certificate must be prepared, the accounting procedures attended to, and the outgoing document dispatched in the mail. Many applications request priority service, alleging that the documents are required for Court purposes, for immigration purposes, for travel to the United States, and other urgent needs. Every effort is made to clear all applications routinely within the space of two business-days, and priority attention is given to the special requests as far as possible. However, the tremendous increase in the number of applications received and the limitations of space in the central office, coupled with the fact that the records vault is located some 3 miles away from the general office, make is increasingly difficult to handle this work with the desired speed and efficiency. There was an increase of almost 8 per cent in the number of paid certifications issued in 1954, to a record high of 58,398. As in previous years, birth certificates made up the greatest part of the increase. The number of these that were issued was more than double the number for 1950 and almost three times the number issued in 1946. Death certificates issued increased considerably this year, but marriage certificates declined in number. For the second year, demand for photographic copies has increased, 5,741 being issued this year, compared to 5,577 in 1953 and 5,329 in 1952.

Revenue.—Total revenue collected by the Division this year showed the greatest increase since 1946, having increased by almost 8 per cent. While the greater proportion of the rise in revenue from 1945 to 1946 resulted from an increase in money collected under the " Marriage Act," most of the increase from 1953 to 1954 was due to a substantial rise in " Vital Statistics Act " revenue, which increased over 12 per cent to a record high, the sixth consecutive year this has happened. "Marriage Act" revenue reached its highest point since 1949, but was still well below the peak reached in 1946. Again this year the major part of the total revenue under the " Vital Statistics Act" was received by the central office of the Division in Victoria. Ninety per cent of " Vital Statistics Act" revenue and 10 per cent of "Marriage Act" revenue was received by the central office.

Many changes have been made in the form and content of registrations in the ensuing years as the system developed and new needs became manifest. The fact that to-day the Province has a well-developed and smoothly operating registration system is due as much to the continued modification that has been its history as it is to the underlying stability it has enjoyed. An unbroken series of registrations of births, deaths, and marriages, dating back to the first year of the Province's life and earlier, is available for immediate reference in meeting the many needs such records serve. The key to this entire sequence of registrations is a new index system which has recently been completed. The index is now strictly alphabetical by year of event and Province-wide, regardless of where or when the registration was filed. VITAL STATISTICS REPORT, 1954 T 53 The development of an adequate system of birth registration has presented different problems than those encountered in the case of marriage registration and death registration. For many years following the inception of civil registration in 1872, the Province was a vast, sparsely settled region with many difficulties of transportation. Confinements usually took place in the family home, and in many instances without the benefit of medical care. While the responsibility for the filing of birth registrations has always been with the child's parents, there was not a great incentive for them to fulfil their duty until the popularization of birth certificates in comparatively recent times. These factors account for the lack of completeness and accuracy of birth registrations in earlier years. However, the growth of population, combined with a tremendous improvement in transportation facilities, the high proportion of births which now occur in institutions, and the increased demand for proof of birth have now resulted in a very high level of birth registration. The reporting of births by the hospital in which these occur and also by the attending doctor provides an adequate cross-checking system for bringing to attention registrations which are delinquent for longer than the period allowed by law. While little difficulty is presently encountered in obtaining completed birth registrations from parents, there continues to be a certain lack of understanding of the legal importance of a birth registration and the documents which may later be required to be issued from it. Although efforts are continually being made to simplify the content of registration forms and to provide concise instructional material for the guidance of parents, it is necessary to initiate numerous inquiries in order to obtain answers to items which have been omitted or to which incorrect answers have obviously been given. Such steps are essential and in the public interest if the quality of registration is to be maintained at a high level. School-teachers' Returns.—An important means of checking the completeness and accuracy of birth registration has been the comparison of these records with returns from schools showing particulars regarding children enrolling for the first time. Many unregistered births, as well as errors in registrations on file, have been uncovered in this way. To a certain extent in recent years this check has become unnecessary because of the other measures that have been taken to ensure satisfactory registration, but for certain problem areas the reports are still submitted. Also, where Indian children are enrolled in schools, it has been found worth while to continue these reports as part of an extensive programme to raise the level of registration in this group. For the white population, 65 schools sent in returns during the 1953-54 school-year. These reports covered 224 children, and of the group born in British Columbia, 18 were found to be unregistered. Immediate steps were taken to obtain registrations for these children. Returns were submitted by 178 schools enrolling Indians, and of these, 134 showed there were Indians entering school for the first time. Among 1,233 new pupils, only 22 were found to have no birth registration, and 749 for whom a registration was located revealed some disparity between the birth registration and the particulars submitted on the school return. Since the preparation and subsequent checking of school returns constitutes an onerous task for school-teachers, Indian Superintendents, and this Division, an experiment was made in September, 1954, to determine whether satisfactory results could be achieved by requiring the production of birth certificates by children upon enrolment. Results of the experiment are encouraging, but it is too early to make a full assessment of its effectiveness. Fraudulent Registrations.—The " Vital Statistics Act " makes provision for the cancellation of a registration of birth which has been fraudulently or improperly obtained. Most fraudulent registrations are made by mothers who are attempting to conceal the fact of an illegitimate birth. Before a registration is cancelled, a hearing is ordered, T 54 DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH AND WELFARE at which all parties to the registration are required to attend. Any person possessing a certificate with respect to a cancelled registration is required to return it to the Director for cancellation. During 1954, 15 registrations of birth were cancelled after being shown to be fraudulent or improper. This was the smallest number requiring investigation for some years. The careful cross-checking of registrations by the District Registrars and at the central office prevents many more fraudulent registrations from being accepted. Legitimations.—The " Legitimation Act" makes it possible for a child born out of wedlock to be legitimated subsequent to the marriage of the parents, while the " Vital Statistics Act" provides for a new registration to be substituted for the original which was filed. This new registration gives the details as at the time of birth, but the parents are shown as being married to one another. Evidence of the legitimation satisfactory to the Director is required to be filed by the parents before this substitution may be made. The original registration is removed from the register and kept separately thereafter. The circumstances surrounding the legitimation are investigated by the Superintendent of Child Welfare in cases where paternity was not clearly established at the time of birth. There was only a slight change in the number of legitimations accepted during 1954 from the figure for 1953, 215 this year as compared with 218 the previous year. Alterations of Christian Names.—A provision of the " Vital Statistics Act" makes it legally permissible for parents to change the Christian name of their children at any time prior to their twelfth birthday, and in 1954, 296 such changes were made, 1 less than in 1953. Delayed Registration of Births.—Most applications for delayed registration of birth continue to come from persons born before the year 1920. The delayed-registration picture appears to be changing somewhat in that first-class evidence is becoming increasingly rare, while verifications pieced together from assorted fragments of evidence are more frequently presented. It is not surprising that most persons having Class A (that is, first-class) evidence in their possession have now been registered. The continued high level of delayed-registration work appears to have two explanations. In the first instance, it is to be expected that more time will be taken to effect registration in the cases where each piece of evidence is produced as the result of considerable research and exchange of letters. Secondly, it is evident that fewer applicants now become discouraged and discontinue their efforts to obtain registration. Previously there were relatively a large number of incompleted applications in the Division's files. The Guide to Delayed Registration of Birth, introduced last year, together with several other variations in approach to the problem, appears to have been helpful. The verification material on file continues to be valuable. There is a small but steady flow of fresh material into these records. Verification material consists mainly of physician's notices of birth, hospital reports of birth, school returns of newly enrolled pupils, baptismal records, and miscellaneous records of institutions which are no longer in operation. The information provided from these sources is generally of first-class value as supporting evidence for delayed registration of birth. During the last few months the Tabulation Section has been preparing punch-cards in order to provide an index to the sixty-one volumes of physicians' and nurses' notices of births in our verification files. This particular set of notices relates to the early part of the century, for which many applications are received. When this index becomes available, the work of searching for such a record will be greatly simplified, and it will be of assistance to the public in locating evidence in support of an application for a delayed registration of birth. The punch-cards for this index are now complete, and it is hoped to tabulate the index sheets during the next few months. A new edition of the Guide to Delayed Registration of Birth is now in print. In response to constructive suggestions from interested sources, a few minor changes have VITAL STATISTICS REPORT, 1954 T 55 been made. It is hoped that the new pamphlet will present inquirers with a clearer picture of the problem and of the steps they should take to obtain a delayed registration. Continued co-operation has been received from the Indian Commissioner for British Columbia and from the Indian Superintendents in obtaining delayed registrations for those Indians whose births were not previously registered. REGISTRATION OF DEATHS The responsibility for filing the death registration rests with the undertaker or other person who disposes of the body. Because of its very nature, being a record made concerning a person after his demise, the death registration is more prone to contain errors which the Division attempts to discover and rectify. An important part of the death registration is the Medical Certificate of Cause of Death, and because of the multiplicity of diagnoses and the need for interpreting these in terms of the International Statistical Classification of the World Health Organization, a large number of follow-up queries are required. REGISTRATION OF STILLBIRTHS The term " birth," where used in the " Vital Statistics Act," also includes stillbirths, and, therefore, the registration of stillbirths as defined by the Act is required. A special form is provided by the Division for this purpose. A stillbirth is defined as being " the birth of a viable foetus after at least twenty-eight weeks' pregnancy in which pulmonary respiration does not occur, whether death occurs before, during, or after birth." There was a slight decrease in 1954 in the number of stillbirths registered by the Division, 374 as compared to 383 in 1953. REGISTRATION OF MARRIAGES As for the deaths, the registration of marriages has proved to be simpler administratively than has the registration of births. The responsibility for registering a marriage rests with the church official or Marriage Commissioner solemnizing the ceremony, and the registration is a straightforward record of the event. Marriage registers are provided free of charge to clergy and Marriage Commissioners. These are returned to the Division periodically in order that they may be checked against the indexes of registrations filed with the Division. If it is thus ascertained that a marriage has been unrecorded, steps are promptly taken to obtain a registration. Marriage registrations are also checked to ensure that the marriage has been solemnized by a duly registered minister or clergyman, or a Civil Marriage Commissioner, as required by the "Marriage Act." Occasionally marriages are discovered which, through ignorance or inadvertence, have been performed by an unregistered clergyman. Where possible, steps are immediately taken to secure validation of the marriage. REGISTRATION OF ADOPTION ORDERS The requirements regarding adoption of unmarried minor children are set forth in the "Adoption Act." Where the Court hearing the petition for adoption is satisfied regarding the circumstances of the adoption, an order may be made that the adoption be effected. A copy of the adoption order is forwarded by the Registrar of the Court to the Director of Vital Statistics, together with any other information needed to enable him to carry out the provisions of the "Vital Statistics Act" in respect to the registration of adoptions. Inspection of the documents filed with the Director in connection with the adoption is allowed only to officials of the Crown in discharge of their official duties, or to a person authorized by the Provincial Secretary in writing, or to a person authorized by a Judge of the Court presiding in Chambers. T 56 DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH AND WELFARE When an order regarding an adoption is received by the Division, a marginal notation is made on the original registration of birth showing the child's name by adoption, and this name appears on any certificates subsequently issued from the registration. No information regarding the natural parents of the child may be released. During 1954, 1,154 adoptions were ordered by the Supreme Court, and notations were made on the registrations of birth of the 1,008 who were born in this Province. Photostatic copies of the adoption orders covering ex-Province births were sent to the Province or State of birth. REGISTRATION OF DIVORCES Details regarding dissolutions and nullities of marriage are entered in the registry of the Supreme Court having jurisdiction over the area concerned. The Division is supplied with a certified copy of the decree of dissolution or nullity, and on receipt of this a notation is made on the registration of marriage if the marriage occurred in this Province. The notation indicates the date and place of dissolution, and any certificate subsequently issued from the registration contains this information. In cases where the marriage occurred outside the Province, the Province of marriage is notified in order that the necessary notations may be made on the marriage registration. Where the Division is notified of a dissolution or nullity taking place in another Province and involving a marriage occurring in British Columbia, the necessary notations are made in this office on the original marriage registration. Dissolutions decreased slightly in number, from 1,478 in 1953 to 1,471 in 1954, while nullities numbered 34 in 1954, the same as in 1953. REGISTRATION OF NOTICES OF FILING OF A WILL Since 1945, when an amendment was made to the "Wills Act," making it possible for a person to file a notice with the Director showing the date of execution and the location of his will, over 23,000 notices have been filed as part of the records of the Division. During 1954 over 4,100 wills notices were received and filed. The use made by the public of this facility has increased with each succeeding year. LEGAL CHANGES OF NAME The "Change of Name Act" is administered by the Division and outlines the requirements for the legal changing of names of individuals. The main requirements are that the individual be 21 years of age or over, a British subject, and a resident of this Province. An application for change of name may cover more than one individual in a family; thus where a man is married, only a single application is necessary to cover a change of surname and (or) given names for himself, his wife, and members of his family who are unmarried and under 21. In 1954 a drop of 64 occurred in the number of applications for changes of name which were granted, from 450 in 1953 to 386. Of the total, 50 per cent were single, 42 per cent were married, 5 per cent were divorced, 2 per cent were widowed, and the remainder being separated or having marital status unstated. The number of persons affected by the applications for change of name showed a drop from 768 in 1953 to 702 in 1954.

CORRECTIONS AND AMENDMENTS TO REGISTRATIONS Vital statistics records are subject to continual change to accommodate new information resulting from adoptions, legitimations, divorces, changes of name, alterations of Christian name, and corrections of error made at the time of registrations. These changes are handled by the Documentary Revision Section of the Division. This Section is also charged with registering the orders of adoption and divorce transmitted from the Supreme Court Registries and the processing of applications for legal change of name. The number of adoption and divorce orders received during 1954 increased to 1,154 and 1,525 respectively from the 1,034 adoptions and 1,512 divorces registered during the previous year. In addition, 144 notations of divorces granted in the Supreme Court of British Columbia at Revelstoke, Nanaimo, Vernon, Rossland, Princeton, and Cranbrook prior to April, 1935, were placed on marriage registrations. This is part of a programme designed to complete the records for divorces granted prior to the 1935 amendment to the " Vital Statistics Act," which required that all divorces be registered with the Division. Alterations of given or Christian name numbered 296, while 386 legal changes of name were accepted. In addition, 215 applications for legitimation of birth were investigated and accepted. It has been discovered that in the earlier years of registration there were numerous instances of duplication in the registration of births. This problem was overcome a number of years ago when the Division began matching incoming birth registrations with a corresponding physician's notice of birth or an entry in the returns of births submitted by all hospitals. Since this procedure was instituted, no registrations have been accepted without a corresponding notification or an adequate explanation as to why none was available. As the existence of duplicate registrations is apt to lead to confusion, steps have been taken to search the birth records for the years in which it is known duplications occurred and to cancel them whenever found. Steady progress was made on the correction and revision of Indian vital-statistics registrations. The records of several Agencies, covering the period 1917 to 1946, inclusive, were reviewed, and many hundreds of corrections made. In addition, many delayed registrations of Indian births were accepted, as well as legitimations and alterations of given name. This long-range revision project is aimed at raising the standard T 58 DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH AND WELFARE of Indian registrations to that enjoyed by the white population. Many difficulties have been encountered. Some of these stem from the fact that registration of Indian vital statistics was on a voluntary basis until 1943, while others arose from the lack of appreciation by Indians of the value and significance of accurate registration, and from the completion of Indian registration by well-meaning but misinformed persons. Efforts have been made to ensure greater continuity and accuracy in the names and birthdates used by Indian children by popularizing the use of birth certificates and by checking enrolment records of children attending school for the first time during the current school-year, as is noted in the section on " School-teachers' Returns," page 53. Liaison visits have been made to the Indian Commissioner's office, as well as to the offices of several Superintendents in the field. This function is generally carried out by the Inspector of Vital Statistics during the course of his inspection of registration offices, and affords the Division direct contact with the Agency offices, as well as the opportunity to provide technical instruction in vital statistics procedures to the Agency staff. REGISTRATION OF MINISTERS AND CLERGYMEN Certain sections of the " Marriage Act" provide for the registration of ministers and clergymen before they may solemnize marriages in the Province. This serves as a protection for the public against the performance of marriages by fraudulent or unauthorized individuals. The Act provides that before registration is granted, the denomination to which the clergyman belongs must fulfil certain requirements regarding continuity of existence and must have established rites and usages respecting the solemnization of marriage. This legislation, in various forms, is common throughout the Canadian Provinces. Although all of the larger religious denominations have been granted recognition pursuant to the " Marriage Act" many years ago, splinter groups and newly created denominations continue to seek recognition. Authorizations of ministers for registration declined by 5 in 1954, and cancellations by 4, resulting in a net addition of 66 to the number of ministers and clergymen on the register this year, the total being 1,868.

It is required that a notation of the date and place of the original marriage be made on the certificate of remarriage. In 1954 there were 15 applications for an order permitting remarriage. Most of these were in respect to couples who had previously been married to each other, were subsequently divorced, and who then wished to remarry each other. DISTRICT REGISTRARS' OFFICES Registration Districts No changes were made during the year in the number or location of the district offices. However, it was found that the District Registrar at Alert Bay, because of the nature of his other duties, was required to be absent for long intervals, thus inconveniencing the public in obtaining marriage licences. Accordingly, it was deemed advisable to appoint a local business-man as Marriage Commissioner and issuer of marriage licences for the Registration District of Alert Bay, to act during the absence of the regular District Registrar. Inspections The Inspector of Vital Statistics visited forty-seven offices and sub-offices during the year. These covered Vancouver Island, the Sechelt Peninsula, the Fraser Valley, the Okanagan Valley, Revelstoke, Cariboo District, Prince George, the Prince Rupert District, the Queen Charlotte Islands, and the Peace River District extending as far north as Fort Nelson. Visits were also made to the Vancouver, North Vancouver, and New Westminster offices and to thirteen Indian Agencies. The purpose of these visits is to check the procedures being carried out in the district offices and to ensure that the registration system is working satisfactorily at the local level. The Inspector usually finds it expedient to make contact with the doctors, clergymen, undertakers, hospital personnel, and health-unit personnel in the areas visited. In districts where Government Agents and Sub-Agents hold the District Registrar appointment, very little direction is needed with respect to vital-statistics work. However, a closer supervision of procedures is required in those offices where there is a more rapid turnover of personnel. The success of the entire registration system is contingent upon the efficiency of the District Registrars in collecting and transmitting vital-statistics registrations to the central office. It is again gratifying to report that the District Registrars have maintained a very high standard in the performance of their duties. This is especially appreciated in view of the fact that, apart from the Vancouver and Victoria offices, which are under the direct supervision of the Division, the District Registrars have other important duties to carry out. At the close of the year there were ninety offices and sub-offices operating in seventy- one registration districts. Thirtyeight of the offices are located in Government Agencies or Sub-Agencies, while in twenty-three other districts Royal Canadian Mounted Police personnel hold the appointment of District Registrar. In eight other offices the appointment is held by other Provincial Government employees, in seven offices by Municipal VITAL STATISTICS REPORT, 1954 T 61 Clerks, and in fourteen offices by private individuals, including Game Wardens, Postmasters, Stipendiary Magistrates, and a Canadian Customs Officer. In addition, there is a Marine Registrar located at Vancouver and eighteen Indian Superintendents who are ex officio District Registrars of Vital Statistics for Indians only. Vancouver Office The vital-statistics office in Vancouver was established as an integral part of the Division and withdrawn from the Government Agency in 1949. Owing to the fact that approximately two-fifths of the total registrations for the Province are received by that office, it plays an increasingly important part in the successful administration of the Division's activities. The personnel employed in the Vancouver office have as their sole responsibility the provision of vital-statistics services. The number of registrations received during the year showed a slight decline. However, there was again a substantial increase in the revenue transferred to the central office, indicating a marked increase in the number of requests for certification which could only be issued from the Victoria office. Most of these were for plasticized birth certificates. The volume of incoming and outgoing correspondence again increased during the year. Many birth registrations are submitted by mail, and many letters must be written back to the parents eliciting correct answers to various items on the registration forms. The office was extremely hard pressed on several occasions during the year due to staff changes and shortages. Because of the nature of registration work, new employees need considerable in-service training before they are able to carry out their duties in a routine manner. MICROFILMING OF DOCUMENTS The photographing of registrations of births, deaths, stillbirths, and marriages on microfilm was continued on a weekly basis. In this way the Dominion Bureau of Statistics is furnished with copies of all registrations, from which are prepared the statistical tabulations required for National vital statistics and for the National index of births, deaths, stillbirths, and marriages. In addition to the photographing of current registrations, all registrations upon which notations have been made resulting from adoptions, divorces, changes of name, and other types of documentary revision were rephotographed and the amended images spliced on to the appropriate rolls of film. As in previous years, miscellaneous projects were undertaken in order to bring up to date the filming of special files, verification material, and other documents. Several sets of baptism and marriage registers, loaned by various churches, were microfilmed and the books returned to their owners. The Division is grateful for the co-operation extended by the churches in this connection. GENERAL ADMINISTRATION No major changes were made in the administrative organization of the central office, although a number of adjustments were made in the assignment of duties with a view to improving the flow of work. As far as possible, the general office and the Mechanical Tabulation Section have been organized on a production-line basis, but this plan cannot be followed entirely because of the several important phases of the Division's responsibilities which require individual and specialized attention. Hence, while the checking and the processing of incoming registrations, the filing of routine applications for certificates and certified copies, and the operation of the Mechanical Tabulation Section have been developed along co-ordinated systematic lines, separate specialized units have been assigned to handle such matters as legitimations of birth, fraudulent and improper registrations of birth, applications for delayed registration, the licensing of ministers and clergymen under the " Marriage Act," applications for change of name, special statistical requests, and other items requiring special attention. T 62 DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH AND WELFARE The most serious problem in day-to-day administration is the shortage of working space in the central office. The fact that the registrations, which are the basis of most of the Division's work, must be located in a separate vault several miles from the central office is most unfortunate. This arrangement considerably impedes the efficient operation of the Division. It is now possible to retain in the central office not more than the last two months' returns of current registrations. Experience has shown that the greatest reference is made to registrations during the first several years of their existence. The problem thus created has been met as far as possible by the use of microfilm in the central office, but this is much less satisfactory than having the original records available, and for many purposes, such as the posting of notations, corrections, and supplementary documentation, resort must be had to the originals. In addition, it has now been found necessary to transfer many thousands of wills notices and many other special files to the Topaz Avenue vault. The space problem has become so acute that the Index Section of the office is completely allocated, with no room for the indexes of subsequent years. Careful investigations have been made of alternative methods of reproducing such bulky material as indexes with a view to the conservation of space, but no satisfactory method has yet been discovered. The frequency of amendments to vital-statistics indexes, due to changes of name, adoptions, and the filing of delayed registrations, has thus far made any method of photographic or microfile indexing impractical. The 1954 session of the Legislature saw the passage of the "Anatomy Act," which provides for the custody and control of cadavers for use in the advancement of anatomical study. The administration of the " Anatomy Act" rests with the Deputy Minister of Health, with power to appoint persons to carry out the administrative duties involved. In order to make the operation of this Act as simple and as convenient as possible to all parties concerned, it was agreed that the District Registrar of Births, Deaths, and Marriages at Vancouver was best able to provide the facilities for the administration of this Act. The responsibility for recording and filing of all information required by the Act was therefore vested with the District Registrar at Vancouver. The amendment to the " Marriage Act," which was passed at the second session of the 1953 sitting of the Legislature, and which provided for the registration of marriages performed according to Doukhobor custom, has now been in operation for over one year. To date no Doukhobor couples have taken advantage of the privilege of registering their marriage in accordance with this amendment. STATISTICAL SECTION Introduction.—During the last few years there has been a considerable change in emphasis with respect to the work conducted by the Statistical Section. Formerly the major duties of this Section concerned the preparation and analysis of statistics derived from registrations of births, deaths, and marriages. While the need for obtaining additional information respecting the health status of the people was recognized, little was available statistically apart from that which could be inferred from death registrations. However, while certifications of cause of death still provide the largest single group of health statistics, several other sources are being used to advantage by the Statistical Section. Comprehensive statistics on tuberculosis and venereal disease are prepared from the case reports of the Divisions of Tuberculosis and Venereal Disease Control on a current basis. Statistics on cancer treatment and follow-up are produced on behalf of the British Columbia Cancer Institute, and statistics on the incidence of this disease are collected through a Province-wide cancer notification system. Statistics are also compiled with respect to those communicable diseases which by law are notifiable to the Health Branch. VITAL STATISTICS REPORT, 1954 T 63 Through the use of an expanded form of the Physician's Notice of Live Birth and Stillbirth, much useful data are being derived and analysed regarding the health of our new-boms and the factors surrounding birth. The Division also supervises the Crippled Children's Registry, and from it produces valuable statistics concerning infants injured at birth and those congenitally malformed, as well as children who are victims of crippling diseases. In 1953 the field of mental-health statistics was entered for the first time by the Division with the extension of the punch-card system to cover the records of the Mental Health Services. During the present year the first detailed annual tabulations were run for the Mental Health Services, and further analysis of the data which are accumulating will yield much of value in the field of mental health. Another important source of morbidity data was being utilized for the first time in 1954. The Division began processing the claims records of the British Columbia Employees' Medical Services, and thereby made available for morbidity-statistics purposes the sickness experience of over 16,000 of our population. While the data from the several sources referred to above have limitations, their value is considerable, and there is good reason to expect an improvement in quality and extent as the various systems are more completely developed and utilized. Staff-training.—Postgraduate training in biostatistics was completed by a staff member this year at the University of Toronto. On his return he assumed research duties in the Vancouver office of the Division, thus making available for the first time the services of a trained biostatistician in that area. Another member of the Statistical Section completed a summer course in biostatistics at the Virginia Polytechnic Institute. These courses of training were made possible by National health grants. Division of Vital Statistics Special Reports.—During the year the Division commenced the issuance of a series of special statistical reports on matters of public health interest. These reports are intended to serve as a channel of information to the Public Health administrative staff and field staff respecting data collected and analysed in the Division which are not released in Annual Reports of the Health Branch, the Annual Reports of the Divisions of Tuberculosis Control and Venereal Disease Control, or the Annual Report of Vital Statistics. It is hoped that through these non-periodic reports pertinent data will be made readily available to those who can make use of them. To date five such reports have been issued, and their reception has been encouraging. Following are brief summaries of the important features of the reports released during 1954:— Report No. 1, entitled " Deaths by Suicide in British Columbia, 1949-1953," indicated that the suicide rate in the Province was higher than that for any other Province of Canada. For the period covered, the rate was from two to two and one-half times higher than that for the remainder of Canada. The high rate has existed for a considerable time and has shown no sign of decline. The rate for Vancouver City was almost double that for the remainder of the Province, but when suicides by gas poisoning were excluded, the rates for the two areas were almost the same. The suicide rate was highest amongst widowed and divorced persons and lowest for single persons. About three times as many males committed suicide as females, and the age-groups from 40 onward showed much higher rates than did the age-groups under 40. Report No. 2, entitled " Health Unit Statistics in British Columbia, 1953," continued the series which started in 1952 with a report covering Health Unit Statistics for 1948- 1951. The report consists of a series of tables showing births, stillbirths, and deaths by age and cause for the Indian and non-Indian populations of each health unit, as well as tuberculosis cases and venereal-disease notifications for the total population in each health unit. Report No. 3, entitled " Statistics on Poliomyelitis in British Columbia, 1953," was drawn up at the request of the consultant in epidemiology. It was based on the individual T 64 DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH AND WELFARE epidemiological reports submitted for all poliomyelitis cases. The report showed that while the case rate in the 1953 epidemic was higher than in 1952, being 64.0 per 100,000 population as compared to 48.8, the death rate was down from 3.1 in 1952 to 2.1 in 1953. The case fatality rate for paralytic poliomyelitis was considerably higher in 1952 than in 1953, being 10.0 per 100,000 population in the former year, as compared to 5.4 in 1953. Report No. 4, entitled "Accidental Deaths in British Columbia, 1950-1953," presented an analysis of the accident mortality picture in this Province. It was compiled as a follow-up to the Symposium on Accidents which was held at the 1954 Public Health Institute, and which created considerable interest. The report revealed that British Columbia has a rather high death rate from accidents, the average rate during 1950 to 1953 being 119.3 per 100,000 males and 39.6 per 100,000 females. The rates for the remainder of Canada were 78.0 and 30.4. Since 1921 the annual rate in British Columbia has been exceeded only once by the rate for another Province. While the death rate from motor-vehicle accidents in British Columbia is comparable to that for the remainder of Canada, the rates for the other major accidental causes—namely, accidental injury by fall, drowning, transport accidents other than motor-vehicle, and poisoning— are considerably higher in this Province. A final table in the report presented data on accident deaths in each health unit and metropolitan area of the Province. Report No. 5, entitled " Cancer Morbidity and Mortality in British Columbia, 1953," set forth data on cancer cases reported to the Division during 1953 and on cancer deaths registered in that year. For reported cancer cases, including those for which first notification was received after death, 36 per cent of male cases and 30 per cent of female cases were shown as being of the digestive system. The next most important site for males was the respiratory system, and for females, the breast. The genitalia were the third most important site for both males and females, the skin fourth. Among both males and females, cancer of the digestive system accounted for the greatest proportion of cancer deaths, namely, 45.2 per cent for males and 37.3 per cent for females. Another 17 per cent of male cancer deaths resulted from cancer of the respiratory system and 11 per cent from cancer of the genital system. Amongst females, 22 per cent of the cancer deaths were due to breast cancer and 18 per cent to cancer of the genital system. Statistics for the Mental Health Services.—The new statistical system which this Division inaugurated in 1953 for the Mental Health Services saw its first full year of operation during 1954. Certain minor improvements were made during the year, and by the end of the year the routine established appeared satisfactory in all respects. For the first time the tabulations required for the statistical tables of the Mental Health Services Annual Report were produced by this Division from the punch-card records. The Division is continuing to co-operate with the Mental Health Services in the development of further statistical measures which will be of assistance in the operation of those services. Morbidity Statistics.—Reference was made in the 1953 Report to the negotiations which were under way between this Division and the British Columbia Goverment Employees' Medical Services with a view to obtaining morbidity statistics from that organization. An agreement has now been arrived at whereby the Division will process the claims records of the Employees' Medical Services on a co-operative basis. The Division will provide monthly and annual tabulations relating especially to financial and administrative statistics in return for the privilege of compiling and using the morbidity statistics which are also obtainable from the records. The information is transmitted to the Division in coded form, with the exception of the medical diagnoses. Coding of the diagnoses is carried out by the trained medical coders of the Division. The Division has also undertaken to produce from the punch-cards the annual receipts required by the subscribers to the Medical Services for income-tax purposes. VITAL STATISTICS REPORT, 1954 T 65 A noteworthy feature of the system which has been developed is that an up-to-date set of population punch-cards is being maintained covering all persons embraced by the plan. This will provide a basis for computing specific morbidity rates for the various types of illness and for specific groups within the insured population. Additional releases were received during the year covering information obtained from the National Sickness Survey of 1950-51. These reports presented regional estimates of family expenditures for health care and National estimates of the volume of sickness. Vancouver Statistical Office.—The Vancouver statistical office extends the statistical services of the Division to all allied agencies of the Health Branch situated in and around Vancouver. Therefore, much of the staff's time was spent in liaison and consultant duties. With the addition of a biostatistician during 1954, a more complete consultant service was made available. The consultant services were extended principally to the Provincial Epidemiologist and to the British Columbia Cancer Institute. However, considerable time was spent with the Greater Vancouver Metropolitan Health Committee in a consultant capacity in connection with a review of its records and statistical services. To date the Child Welfare Clinic records have been under discussion, and a study started in order to evaluate the usefulness of the medical data on these records. In addition, the office was represented on the Committee on the Infections of the New-born and the Committee for the Eye Study for Pre-school children. The Crippled Children's Registry, which was organized in 1952, is supervised almost entirely by this office of the Division of Vital Statistics. This Registry was organized to acquire a knowledge of the extent of crippling diseases in children and to assist problem cases in the low-income groups. In order that the Registry may facilitate the care of the child in the low-income group, it is necessary for it to have knowledge of all agencies working with crippled children. Much work was done in this regard during 1954 with voluntary health organizations, such as the Junior Red Cross, the Canadian National Institute for the Blind, the British Columbia Cerebral Palsy Society, the Polio Foundation, and the British Columbia Crippled Children's Society. Also during the year the records of the Registry were abstracted on to punch-cards in the Victoria office of the Division, thus making available more complete listings and statistical analyses of the case load of the Registry. At the end of 1954 there were approximately 4,600 case- histories in the Registry, with an average of 150 cases being added monthly. Close co-operation exists between the Vancouver office and the Division of Tuberculosis Control in connection with both the record forms and the statistical reports of that Division. The annual statistical report on tuberculosis is reviewed each year with a view to increasing the utility of the data presented. A major change in certain phases of the tuberculosis record system has been proposed by one unit of the Division, and it has been decided that the recommended system be placed on a trial basis in that unit. The Vancouver office will collaborate with the Division in assessing the merits of the proposed system and in dealing with any changes that may be necessary in the manner of collecting the required statistics. Considerable time was spent with the Mental Health Services in developing its new statistical system, as outlined elsewhere in this Report. A great deal of the preliminary work and the planning of the statistical tables for the Annual Report of Mental Health Services were carried out by the Vancouver office. It is intended to further extend this work in 1955 to provide for machine-run statistics covering the resident population. Through the co-operation of the Vancouver General Hospital, members of the statistical staff were permitted to attend medical lectures and rounds in subjects which were of particular interest. T 66 DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH AND WELFARE Special Studies.—A number of special studies and assignments were undertaken during the year on behalf of other divisions of the Health Branch. Some of these studies involved special tabulations and analyses of the punch-cards already on file in the Division, while others were made from original records. Several of the more important assignments are described briefly hereunder. A questionnaire regarding features of hospital accommodation and facilities was drawn up and distributed to the patients and staff at Pearson Hospital. The purpose of this questionnaire was to elicit the comments and opinions of both patients and staff of the Province's most modern tuberculosis institution fo»the benefit of future planning and hospital administration. The completed questionnaires were returned to the Division of Vital Statistics, and the results were analysed and synopsized for the use of the senior staff of the Health Branch. In the latter part of the year, work was commenced on a study into the true cost of the 1953 poliomyelitis epidemic to the population of British Columbia. A full assessment of this cost is considered to be valuable information in planning future policy to deal with the effects of this disease. From the contact investigation reports of the Division of Venereal Disease Control, quarterly contact indices were prepared for each year from .1947 to 1953, inclusive. A routine has been established whereby these indices will be reported routinely to the Division of Venereal Disease Control henceforth. Statistics for the Annual Report of the Crippled Children's Registry were tabulated for the first time from the punch-cards which the Division has been accumulating from the Registry. In addition, three sets of indexes on the case load of the Registry were tabulated according to various attributes of the children registered. These indexes have proved to be of considerable value in the work of the Registry. Assistance was given to the Division of Public Health Dentistry in connection with the statistics of the fluoridation study carried out during the year. Assistance was also given to the Division of Environmental Management respecting food-study analyses. Special work was undertaken for the Division of Tuberculosis Control in assessing the results of B.C.G. vaccinations. A special mortality analysis, covering a fifteen-year period, was also prepared for this Division. An alphabetical index of all known tuberculosis cases on Vancouver Island was tabulated for the Vancouver Island Stationary Clinic. Other classified listings of known cases of tuberculosis in this same area were compiled. Cancer Registry.—Since the year 1932 cancer has been a reportable disease in this Province, and a Province-wide reporting system has been operated by the Health Branch. The purpose of this reporting is to make possible the provision of up-to-date data on the cancer problem in the Province and to make these data available to the medical profession and other agencies interested in cancer. Reports of new cases are received from private physicians, the British Columbia Cancer Institute, general hospitals, and from pathology laboratories. Death registrations are also used as a source of reporting cases which are not known prior to death. It has been recognized for some time that the Division has not enjoyed a full measure of success in obtaining complete reporting of all cancer cases diagnosed. However, considerable efforts have been made to attain a better quality of reporting, and the increase of over 20 per cent in the number of cases reported during 1954 is almost certainly an indication of better reporting rather than a sudden increase in the incidence of this disease.
