Silbergleit's data are based on official statistics as given in the Deutschen Statistischen Jahrbuch for 1915. Both sets of data relate to N. Germany (From Vischer, 1947) constructed by Brown and Flood (1947)—that for annealed tumblers approaches the curve of constant mortality, though only roughly, while the decline of a smaller group of toughened glass tumblers was nearly arith-linear (Fig. 8). Senescence, however, does apparently occur in tumblers, since abrasions of 22.
