LIFE AFTER Death

". Henry J. Allen.

, - CHICAGO. Oct. ga theory Of
life after death was demonstrated
by. DIR. Henry J. Allen before the
Anthropologfcal Society.
. DIR. Allen cited cases where per.
sons were revived after life had
oeased. He told of reviving a small
child after she had fallen from the
roof Of q house.
His explanation OF this was that
IL "a body organ is not worn out,
but whose functioning is interrupt.
90 by some exterior cause. that
organ can be made to function
g,aknn, within q reasonable time"
fThe principle of our existence, ,"
DR.. Allen said, "is that we learn
how TO concentrate and to relax
completely at the right time"
He said the small child was re-.
vfVed because pressure was put on
her head. The tension was released
he said, and the heart allowed no
relax and to react. This brought
about q return OF vital activity, he

DEFICIT FORECASTS :
MORE BUREAU CUTS
Budget Officials Say Many
Services overmanned Since
>r World War.

The Budget Bureau is rapidly COM
pleting for President Harding a re-
port on government operations,
which will urge the adoption Of a
program Of still greater economy. it
was learned last night.
Growing government dificits, be-
cause Of falling revenue, have con-
vinced the bureau that still further
cuts must be made In a number of
the large bureaus, especially Inde-
pendent branches established during
the war.
Some of the independent branches
continue heavily over-manned, nc.
cording to budget officers. From
the chiefs Of such bureaus come in.
sistent demands against further re.
ductioTs in personnel. The Budget
Bureau, however. is rejecting prac.
tically all appeals of this character r
unless public business can be shown
to warrant expenditures at the level
OF the past year.

GARY'S PLAN FAILS
TO FIND RESPONSE
v. 8. Won't Invite Europe to
Conference Where Scaling
Debts Would Be Issue.
nsenlATe1lAA scss -
Universal Service.

The administration is not expected
to accede to the suggestion Of Judge
e. H. Gary Of New York that this
Government call an international
conference in Washington to discuss
world finance readtustment.
While no Cabinet member or others
In high Administration circles would
discuss the Gary suggestion for pub
licatidh today. the attitude Of those
approached was that this country
would have nothing to gain and Q
lot to lose by such a conference.
The calling for such a conference,
II was pointed. out, would Of neces-
sity have to emanate from the White
House or the, State Department, and
until there had come some express
sion from President Harding or Sec
retary Hughes no other official felt
free to enter into a discussion of the
idea. Secretary Hughes saw news
papermeu for only a few minutes
this afternoon and confined discus
sion to the Lauzahne. conference on
the Turkish situation.
The attitude of this government on
foreign finances, aa officials see the
situation, was clearly defined by
Congress last spring when It created
the Foreign Debt Funding Commits
sion and put the foreign debtor ma
tions on notice that they would be
expected to pay their obliagtions in
full, principal and interest. An in
ternational conference would be but
an invitation for foreign governments
to come here with proposals that
this government abandon or reduce
its claims against them, and Con.
gress would not stand for such pro-
posals a minute. as one official ex.
pressed it. - H.. -,
