Longevity in Washington.

To the Editor Of The Star.
Comparing the number Of deaths in
Washington with other cities of the
same population. Washington was
shown to have had a larger death rate
than the two or three other cities
mentioned in The Star. There are
more people living in Washington be-
tween sixty and eighty years of age
than in any other city Of the same popu-
lation in America. They can be seen
when the weather Is good. on every
residential street and in every park
taking their daily exercise. If the
combined age of the deceased for one
month in this city could be compared
with those in the other cities, it would
be found that Washingtonians live
longer than any who dwell in other
large cities.
There are many reasons why sc
many old people live in Washington

STRONG MERCHANT
FLEET PREDICTED
Senator Jones Asserts New
Administration Will Be
Factor in Growth.

A prediction that the incoming Hard
ing administration will put into full
force the merchant marine act and
will do all in it's power to build up
the American merchant marine was
| made last night by Senator Jones Of
Washington, chairman of the Senate
commerce committee.
practically no chance has been
given the American merchant marine
to make a success. nor has there been
any chance for the merchant marine
act Of 1920 to show its worth from
the purely American standpoint" said
Senator Jones, referring to the delay
in filling the vacancies which have
existed on the Shipping Board and the
attitude OF the President toward pro-
visions Of the merchant marine act
requesting notice of abrogation of
treaties that interfere with America
giving preference to American ships.
Reduced by ReslEnations.
"The duties devolving upon the
members OF the Shipping Board are
varied and stupendous." he continued
! Long ago the membership of thu
board was reduced by designations to
hut two men. The merchant marine
act provides for membership Of
seven and for a segregation of the
work of the board
The naming of the full complement
of members by the President and a
proper distribution of the work among
them would have permitted great
constructive strides in the adminis-
tration of the boards affairs and the
upbuilding of our commercial marine.
However, June. July, August, Sep
tember and October came and went
without the board membership being
filled, The effect is obvious and de-
plorable.
"Pointblank refusal was made with
regard to the duty imposed by the law
on the President in the matter of abro-
cation Of commercial treaties which
preclude US from the imposition of dis
eliminating customs duties on imports
vessels.
Fail to Get Benefits.
Without an adequate membership on
act cannot be carried into effect by any
means. We are denied the opportunity
to feel the real benefit Of the act and
our marine interests suffer. Yet in the
meantime our competitors are enabled
to spread propaganda against the
courage US and to discredit our great
merchant marine act
'The change Of administration on
March 4 next will see an end of dila-
toriness in the carrying out of the
provisions Of the law. President-elect
Harding is keenly attuned to our mari
time needs and in hearty sympathy with
an American merchant marine. He will
use care in the selection of men to fill
the Shipping Board memberships when
called upon to fill vacancies. He will
carry out the solemn direction Of the
law with reference to treaty abrogations
undoubtedly. He will align himself with
policies and measures to promote and
give permanency to a commercial fleet
position"
