life from American manhood and
womanhood. Henry Moir, an insur
ante authority of this city, declared
here today
The average economic loss of ac
tive life in each case of death from
the malady or Its aftermath was at
least 25 years, said Mr. Moir. empha
sizing the peculiarity of the epidemic,
which found most of Its victims un
der 30 years of age, as compared with
the average life of 55 and 60 years of
persons insured in well-established
companies.
Addressing the Association of Rife
Insurance Presidents, Mr. Moir, who I
is president of the Acturial Society j
of America, described how the epi-1
demic had dislocated the standard i
mortality experience of the insurance j
companies in the past fifteen years.

the influenza epidemic, causing S6.82X
deaths in forty four large cities in I
eight weeks, or an average of four
of every 1,000 of the population, he!
added, had brought a new element
into the situation. investigation of
claims before several large insurance
companies, tie declared, showed that
1»'J per cent of the deaths were due
to influenza and S7 per cent to pneu
monia following influenza, while less
than 2 per cent were of persons over
r»f> years, as against so per cent under
40. and On per cent under
From these figures, the actuary
said, it was apparent that the age of
maximum virulence ot the epidemic
had been under .’50. tukinig tie- young
and vigorous "those whom we ex
pected to undertake much of the
world’s work.”
Mr. Moir warned tile public that
there is no assurance that the danger
is past. "We learn.” he said, "that
influenza is now revisiting Kurope,
and this time there are indications
that it may be more objectionable
than the milder form of midsummer.
We should therefore take warning
from this recurrence and observe
watchful care to prevent further in
feet ion. since the disease has dis
tinctly decreased and seems to be
dying out in this country.”
