[54] "Let _p_ be the chance of death from a random, not a constitutional
source, then 1-_p_ is the chance of a selective death in a parent and
1-_p_ again of a selective death in the case of an offspring, then
(1-_p_)^2 must equal about 1/3, = .36, more exactly 'therefore' 1-_p_ =
.6 and _p_ = .40. In other words, 60% of the deaths _are selective_."
