Abstract
Each year the National Vital Statistics Division (formerly, National Office of Vital Statistics), a unit of the Public Health Service, publishes a summary of the provisional vital statistics of the United States of America, based on estimates derived from monthly reports on certificates filed in registration offices around the country. For 1960, this is published in Volume 9, No. 13, May 31, 1961, of the Monthly Vital Statistics Report. Previous experience has shown that the estimates reflect quite well, with certain reservations, the final reports available much later. As in previous years1 an abstract of the data most likely to interest pediatricians is presented herewith.
