N2  - The effects of unemployment on the nation's vitality were not evident in various mortality rates, and there were few significant indications of upward trends in morbidity rates. Doubtless, however, the resistance of certain groups of people has been lowered, and an increase of ill health may follow in 1932 or later. Special measures were undertaken by federal, state, and local health organizations to improve the public health; private health agencies appear to have been increasingly effective in their work; the number of physicians, dentists, and nurses increased, probably at a greater rate than population. Experiments in organized medical service and the provision of medical care on a monthly basis were increasingly evident.<p />
