In further developing its activities in the field of health, the Metropolitan organized its Welfare Division in 1909 and, at about the same time, a nation-wide nursing service was established for Industrial policyholders. Subsequent health records demonstrate the value of these services. During all these years the Company has worked shoulder to shoulder with national, state and local health organizations to stamp out preventable disease. New low mortality figures were recorded in 1934 for practically all of the diseases against which public health forces have directed special preventive efforts--notably typhoid fever, tdbeircdlQsis, diphtheria, infant mortality and maternal mortality. Dumcg this year the good record of previous years continued to obtain among Metropolitan policyholders.
