Table XIII shows the births and deaths of infants, legitimate and
illegitimate, since 1909 onwards, with the corresponding infantile
mortality rates for Westminster and for London. Although the variations
are of little significance there is a slight increase in births both
legitimate and illegitimate, and a definite saving among the lives of
the illegitimate. This may suggest a higher sense of responsibility
among these unfortunate mothers.
