Dec. .21. Of the more than lfi,Ou() person who committed sui cide in this cuuntry lust year, a greater number than ever before sousbt to cast mystery over the manner of their going, declared l)r. Frederick L. Hoffman, con sulting statistician of the l'rudentiul Ijfe Insurance comiKiuy of Ajnericu, iu au unalysiii o suicides iu 11)21, just mude publie ' "To an increasing extent," uid the report, "the facts and circumstances are di libeiaU-ly confused to make the verdict of 'death from accident' the ouly alter native. In h majority of fuses, huwever, the surrounding circumstances are sug gestive of deliberately planned self mur Uer. Case. ot 'accidental poisoning,' 'a cidental falls"and 'accidental shootings' upp' liecniiiiiitr ntnre orevulenl. "But the most annulling aspect of the, present day suicide promcui is ine recur ring frequency with which others are drawn iuto the tragedy of murder and under conditions which are frequently, re volting.' Tables Show Rata. Dr. Hoffman's report presented tables, based on statistics from '.'." cities, to show that the suicide rate per 100,000 bad in creased to 15.7 in 1021, as compared with 12.4 in 1020. It whs a fraction higher than the average 12.2 for the five-year ,.riol 1'UK. IK-JO. hut comnarcd favor ably with figures for the three preceding five-year periods, which showed rules of 17.6, l'J.5 and 20.4, respectively. San Diego, Cal., set the high record for 1U21, with a suicide rate of 3S.7, Sun Francisco coming second with 37.3, Spo kane, Wash., third with 32.5, and Lob Angeles fourth with 27.!. Dr. Hoffman hazarded the guess that this wua because of the number of health and fortune seek ers who migrate yearly to the west coast, many of whom fail to find what they arc seeking, . . Two. cities in the. list reported a zero suicide rate MussUlun, O., and Newport, K. I. i . Death, Methods Differ. The analysis showed that men suicides preferred the shooting and hanging routes, while the greatest percentage of women suicides elected poison and asphy xiation. Almost, three times as many men as women ended their own lives, 40.8 per cent of them electing fire arms and 17.S per cent choosing the rope. Only 14.7 per cent of the female suicides shot them selves and 13.4 per cent chose hanging. 1'oison claimed 30.3 per cent of the wo men suicides and asphyxiation 20.7. Per centages for men by these latter meth ods we're respectively 12.5 and 11.1 pet That suicide goes hand iu hand with de velopment of civilization was deducted from charts of the southern states com paring negroes and whites. Negroes were shown to have solved their difficulties by killing their fellowmcu in the ratio of 2-1.8 homicides to 1.0 suicides. Whites in the same states had a homicide-suicide ratio of 11.3 to ltJ.
