Says Citizens Should Protect
Honor of U. S. During Eu-
ropes War.

NEW YORK, Aug. Sex Presi-
dent Roosevelt, toward the close of
his speech at the National Progress
s:ve party's State conference here
yesterday, touched on the European
war situation.
- regret that OF recent years the
policies which I and those like me
believed to be essential for the well
fare, the honor and the greatness of
The American people have not been
more faithfully carried out" he said.
"But all that is past now and is
neither here nor there in this crisis.
At the moment the United States,
as one of the great nations of the
world. faces a crisis which has al
ready involved in war almost all the
other great nations of the world
Friends, we have our troubles here,
but let us be thankful beyond meas
ure that we are citizens of this re-
public and that our burdens, though
they may be heavy, are far lighter
than those that must be borne by
the men and women who live in
other and less fortunate countries
Il, for one. will act and am
sure / am stating your feeling when
! say that the men and women of the
Progressive party will act, through
out this crisis primarily as American
citizens, and will work hand in hand
with any public man, with any pub
lie servant and with any and all pri-
Yate citizens who in good faith and
disinterestedly do all that is possible
to see that the United States comes
through this crisis unframed, and so
conducts herself as to conserve the
honor and the interest of her own
citizens, and, as far as may be, to
help in securing peace and Justice
for all the nations Of mankind"

attended school; going later TO Gessen, at
Munich and at Bonn At the last named uni
versity he took his doctors degrees in science,
and then became professor Of Zoology at Odessa

This golden jubilee is not in celebration, cy-
IDENTITY, of his entry upon his professorship, but
Of his receipt OF his decorate. which occurred
when he only twenty years old and which
marked the beginning Of his active scientific work.
Indeed, it within year after that date that
he published his first work, "Embryological
Studies OF Insects" the subject Of which clearly
Indicated the trend OF his thought and the direc-
ton which his labors Of research to take.
At this time Pasteur had already made his great

his own labors into parallel channels.
After twelve years in the chair of zoology at
Odessa he retired from il in order to devote him
self exclusively to the study of bacteroogy and
the conduct OF "A meteorological laboratory. In
this work he enjoyed TO certain extent the
sstancc of Pasteur, with whom he maintained
intimate and frequent correspondence, in
which the results Of their researches and oh
servations were exchanged and compared At last
when PaSteur opened the institute which bears
his name. in November, 1888, Metchnikof was in

are not caused by germs Of bacteria. The other
is to find method OF combating those germs.

He IS, like Pasteur very cautious in making an

Of the most confident and resoutc in maintain
ing whatever he knows to he true.
Particularly is this the in his attitude
toward the one invariably fatal ailmcnt known
as old age From time to time stories have been
put forward concerning his alleged discovery Of
the secret Of perpetual youth and his belief that
nobody need ever die; which even more apoc-
.rypha than that about Dr. Oslcr's wanting to
'hare all men put 70 death at certain age. What
he does hold is that the average duration OF
human life can be considerably prolonged in Two
ways.
One is the combating. cure'and prevention Of
the diseases which aTlict mankind. The other Is,
the combating and overcoming Of at least some
Of those physical phenomena which are regarded
as the inevitable concomitants Of advanced years.

to live from eighty 10 q hundred years IN the
possession Of healthy minds and bodies and all
their faculties; and then should die quietly and
comfortably OF simple dissolution without the
pangs and distress Of any specific disease.
Mctchnikof has his own special theory Of the
nature Of these prcvcntnblc diseases of old age.
and IT is such as might be expected Of bnc-
tcriologst who irstinctivcly suggests in every
Gaze Of illness "Cherchcz lc germc!" Hitherto
there have been various theories concerning the
nature OF scnile decay. Perhaps the most widely
hcld IN recent years WAS that Of hardening Of
the arteries and consequent Interference with
the circulation Of the blood. That such condi-
tons do exist is ndisputablc though they are
