The workshop was held in order to address concerns arising from the use of the 1940 U.S. population as a standard for age adjustment of vital rates and to review issues surrounding the use of alternative standards from a variety of perspectives. Participants included representatives of selected Federal Government agencies, the National Committee on Vital and Health Statistics, the State of Michigan, and present and former NCHS staff.- p. iii
