There has been an increase Of two

ing to the Neto York Medical Journal
aud Medical Record for August 16. which
cites life tables for 1920 to prove It.
THE complete expectation Of life at birth
is now $40. which in 1910 was 51.5 and
in 1901 1872" says the Journal. In the
last two decades there has been added
five years to the expectation OF life and
the span of life has been heightened by
a fifth in less than one generation.
"Opr extreme prodigality with most
things is carried out in our wastefulness
with human life," the Journal continues.
THE number of deaths due to what We
term accidents each year is twice as
high in proportion to our population as
the number prevalent in countries such
as England and Wales. Even though
the year 1920 for the United States reg
istration area had lower accident rates
than any year in the decade. there were
in that year 10000 more deaths than
would have occurred ii the death rates
Of England and Wales had prevailed
which means for the entire country ar
excess of about $1,000 deaths. There
is much higher prevalence of all types
Of accidents in the United States than
in England and Wales"

whom he describ sd the experiment at

IL any trick has been used In the pres

SNAPPED 1T WEEK AGO
Features Appear in Corner of

IL the features Of the late James Z.

clear in the mind OF DR.. Walter Frank
lin Prince as they were when he died
then the long awaited spirit manifesto
tion from DR.. Hyslop has at last been
received. DIR. Prince. who is chief in
vestigator of the Psychical Research
Society. has identified the faint outline
of face appearing on an ordinary
flashlight photograph recently taken at
spiritual seance as that of his de-
parted friend and, collaboration.
The photograph was taken last Mon
day at a meeting of twelve physicians
and writer's interested In spiritual phe-
nomena in the home of DIR. Edward F.
Bowers in West End avenue. The plates

We're ordinary ones which were pur-
chased and brought to the seance by
Fulton Oursler, amateur magician, and
Robert r.. Hardy, of 25 West Forty
second street. There, in DIR. Bowers
apartment a camera was focused on a
couch in the center of the room, the
lights were lowered, and Miss Marie
Haviland, a trained nurse of 1903 Grave
send avenue, Brooklyn, who had never
undergone such an experience before,
was hypnotized by DR.. Bowers as she
lay on the couch. Almost Immediately
she began to speak in a jargon little of
which was ineligible to the onlookers
but some OF which was recognized by w.
Adolphe Roberts, editor of the National
Pictorial, as words or terms sometimes

few moments the lights were extin-
guished and four fiashlight photographs

shows Miss Haviland lying on the couch
surrounded by those who took part in
the experiment. In the upper left hand
corner appears, in faint outline, a human
face. This face was identified by Dr.
Prince as a remarkable likeness of Dr.
Hyslop.
Notwithstanding the fact that he pur-
chased the photographic plates himself

was made Mr.. Oursler Is not altogether

Hoover Expresses Attitude.
Regardless OF the American at,i-

the attitude OF this government re-
mains the same towards Russia. II
was expressed forcibly iu an address
made here last night by Herbert
Hoover. secretary OF commerce. and
head of the American Relief COM
mission in Russia. There can be no
recognition Of Russia until iunda-
mental changes have been made,
guaranteeing life and property and
recognizing the sanctity OF con-
tracts, he said. ..--.
Mr.. Hoover showed tina. Russian
commerce had never been an impor-
tant thing for this country. When
running full. blast before the war,
Russia only took | per cent OF the
exports Of the United States, a per-
ccntage which would furnish en-
pioyment for only $4,000 people in
the United States. -. .-- r.
These solemn facts are outstand-
ing. he said, regarding Russia.
In the first place, Russia is bank
rupt, She, had no productivity; her
factories and her mines even where
founded on Russian material, are pro-
ducing but from 2 to 25 per cent.
Her railways are transporting less
than 7 per cent OF their. preWar
capacity; her agricultural production
is below her own needs instead Of the
great normal surplus; she has eaten
up her entire fat and for a long
time. can have nothing to exchange
for the SERVICES of our workmen or
the savings Of our investors.
"An Economic Vacuum.
Russia is today an economic
vacuum, Mr.. Hoover says. quoting
words formerly used by Secretary
Hughes. He points out the
fallacy of the argument that the
American attitude towards Russia is
based on the desire to recover in
vcstments already there, since the

ton 10 participate IN the adjourned

discuss the Russian problem. sena-
tor Borah startled the senate by IN.
PRODUCING . resolution iayoring the
recognition OF the soVie, government
OF Russia.
While Senator Borah MAS adyo-
eating recognition OF soviet Russia.
not because he approves OF the SOW
iel form oi government. but because
he thinks that is the wiser course TO
pursue. Senator Hitchcock under.
took 10 show that the absence Of
the United States from the Genoa
conference had preeipi,a,ed the
breakup OF the gathering, The
United States is today cipher. he
said. IN world affairs. lie argued
that the moral supper, OF this eoun-
try had been Withdrawn from
Europe aud that this lack oi support
was prolongine the presen, state OF
instability there. The league OF ma
,iors. he urged. had shown It's ei-
iectiveness by bringing abon, an
agreement between Poland and Ger
many for plebiscite over the siles-
ian dispute.
Senator Borah expressed doubt as
10 the effectiveness OF the league.
but hoped what Senator Hitchcock
said was true. II true, il proved. the
league could work as q European
organization without the aid OF the
United States. He had read. how
ever. that some critics hold that the
league had already sown seeds OF
war which could not be extirpated
without the necessity OF another
world conflict.
Despite these varying views in the
opinion OF well-iniormcd men, the
Senator Hitchcock. former cham
pion of the dcfunct league OF ma
tions, thought the opportunity ripe
&c throw a few flowers on the. cof-
fin of the league. with the result that
he got in the way Of the Borah buzz
saw, which is acknowledged 10 be an
effective instrument in debate.
Senator Borah's argument for the
recognition OF the soviet government
was one thing, but the interchange
OF compliments between himself and
Senator Hitchcock was quite an
other. While Senator Borah is not
in complete sympathy with the ad-
ministration. maintaining his irrecon-
cilablc position so far as relations
with Europe are concerned, he re-
mains an out-and-out opponent Of the
league. Senator Hitchcock has as
sumed the role Of a critic OF the ad-
ministration, role which induced
him TO fight the position taken by the
democratic leader, Oscar Under
wood. on the limitation of armament
treaties, and which renders it diff
cult for him to see anything good in
republican policies.
