DAVID LINDSAY HALE
AND HEARTY AT II
Paper Manufactures Has No
Special Theories on Longev-
ity Except Activity.

Keeping busy" is one of the things
which helped him along, says David
Lindsay, a weIl-known paper manu-
facturer. at Philadelphia. but a resi-
dent of this city. living at 11o4 Broome
street. who celebrated his nth birth
day yesterday. 1--WE been at work
for a long time. ever since l was n
boy in Connecticut. / worked in Nor
witch, which was my home. and in
New Haven, but what / saw of Yale
was from the outside. l still go to
business every day. You can't sit
around and rust. you know, and 1 am
glad that l am able to keep on work
ing" Mr.. Lindsay says.
Although he admits that he used
to take a drink once in while" be-
fore the Volstead act, Mr.. Lindsay
says he does not approve of the boot
logger and home brewer any more
than of any other law breaker. Modern
fashions are ''all right" he says, while
the conduct and pastimes of young
people are not so bad. we had good
times when was a boy. not quite the
same kind of good times that they
have today but pretty good times for
all that. Young people today probably
dance more than we did and l can't
say that l enjoy dance music. Jazz
is little loud for me; guess that's
sign of age"
His unusual activity and alertness
are not the result of any special health
program, Mr.. Lindsay said. "Tve
never had any particular theories on
the subject Of health except that for
/ forty years 1 have never smoked be-
fore lunch.'
His birthday was quietly celebrated
in the evening on Mr.. Lindsay's re-
turn from the Office of the Lindsay
Brothers Paper Company, of Phila-
delphia, of which he is president.

washington Correspondent
Washington, Sept. 15.--Colonel
Thomas w. Miller, alien property
custodian. is scheduled to address the
convention of the Connecticut depart
ment of the American Legion. today
at New Haven. He left for Boston
early In the week to attend to impor-
tant alien property matters in that
vicinity. Before leaving he announced
that it was his intention to bring be-
fore his audience in New Haven GER
tain matters in connection with
negotiations now going on between this
country and Germany and Austria, re-
lating particularly 10 the claims of
American citizens against these coun-
tries for damages TO American life
and property before the United States
entered the war. including the claims
growing out of the sinking of the Lu-
sitania. In addition, he will discuss
matters of interest to ex-service men,
now pending in Washington.
There is growing conviction
among ex-seryice men that those of
them who happen to be Democrats
are not receiving the consideration
in the appointments to office that is
due them because of their service in
the war; and an effort is being made
to force definite policy in such mat
ters. If there is to be a real prefer
ence shown ex-service men in the dis
tribution OF patronage, they want to
know il, and, it may be said, there is
a strong sentiment among them TO
have an early "show down" in the
matter.
IL is understood that conferences are
being held between the White House.
the Postma ster- General, and the Civ
il Service Commission, looking to the
adoption OF policy in the matter of
postmaster appointments that will
harmonic with the soldier preference
law and the various party pronounce
ments that the ex-service men viii be
taken care of in such appointments.
There is a group of public men now
| fighting together in this matter who
served overseas, and il may be expect.
/ ed they will succeed in having Their
/ demands respected. for It seems thai
| they are agreed that the ex-service
men, regardless of their political pre-.
dilection or party affiliations, mus
be shown the consideration which the
American people want them 10 hav,
in the matter OF federal appointment.
and protection against demotion ot
those already in the government ser.

will meet tho requirements OF those
Senators who differ radically with the
Indiana Senator on certain iesisls-
ton, especially that pertaining to the
packers and the agricultural interests.
II has been said that Senator Lodge
preferred Senator Brandegee Of Com
necticut, as he is In fun sympathy
with the Massachusetts, Senator. and
perhaps would be as exacting and
arbitrary as Lodge himself, but Wat
son is close to Penrose, and, believ-
ing, as he does. In the methods, as
well as the practices OF the Phila-
delphian. Ii is possible he will be
chosen for the difficult service.
Republicans agree, however, that
either their leadership is defective, or
else their membership in the Senate
embraces so many antagonistic ele-
ments that II is a most difficult mat
ter to compose the differences.
