1922 HEALTH SHOWING
ALMOST EQUALS BEST
Alcoholism, and Motors Mar
OtherUise Good Record.

The health record for the first nine
months of 1922, according TO the Stdtis-
ticdI Bulletin of the Metropolitan Life
Insurance Company, is better than that
of any year in the history of it's in
dustrial policies except last year. and
the death rate is only slightly higher
than that of last year. The death rate
from communicable diseases dropped 2S
to 40 per cent. except for measles. in
huenza and pneumonia. The measles
rate is still below the average. and the
influenza and pneumonia increases are
due to the influenza furry of last
winter.
The outstanding favorable feature is
the drop in the tuberculosis record. the
white rate being 1912 per 100000, or
slightly less than last year. while the
negro rate has declined from 27S.7 to
1855.
Deaths from alcoholism, exclusive of
those due TO wood alcohol poisoning,
numbered 202 for the nine months. This
is so more than during the whole year
1921. The situation with reference to
deaths from violence is much less IA
vorable than that for disease. Suicides
and homicides increased among the
white policyholders.
Although September. 1922. marks the
minimum mortality ever recorded for
diseases, the automobile accident death
rate (16.5 per 100000 marks the max
imum.

BE CAUTIOUS, ALERT
CITY'S SAFETY RULE
Collier, Head of Bureau to
Open To-day, Says 1t Will
Rely Upon Public.

The Department of Public Safety. the
newest branch Of the city government,
will be opened this morning at Police
Headquarters under the direction OF
Barron Collier. Special Deputy Police
Commissioner, who will have charge OF
the work to decrease the hundreds OF
avoidable accidents in this city every
year
Mr.. Collier has staff of expert
safety men, including Marcus Dow, who
is president of the National Bureau of
Safety and head of the safety service
Of the New York Central Railroad ;
Frederick j. Hall. formerly with the Ha-
birshaw Electric Gable Company and
Police Lieut.. Edward Walsh. Mr.. Walsh
said yesterday:
without the understanding OF the
people generally and without the CO.
operation of the press and OF the people
we cannot most quickly and effectively
achieve the purpose OF this bureau.
Chiefly we are looking to the homes
and to the individual members of fami-
lies for help in making New York the
safest city in the world.
I'm industry throughout the United
States the intelligent cooperation Of the
workers themselves has reduced the fa-
tai accidents yearly to our-seventh Of
what they were ten years ago. In fact,
industrial work is only one third as dan
gerous nowadays as our leisure hours.
Throughout the United States fatal
accidents take one a year out of every
LOGO of our people. In New York city
last year our fatal accident toll was
only one a year out Of every 1900, or
a condition indicating that New York
is only two-thirds as dangerous as the
average over the country generally In
effect New York is the safest city in
the world, but this is small satisfaction
as long as there are lives to be saved.
'The majority of accidents in this
city-accidents which took the appalling
total of 3,4S3 human lives last year
are due to easily preventable causes.
chief OF which is individual careless
ness. 1t is toward the abatement of in
dividual carelessness that our people
and this department of safety must first
devote their thought.

be safe"

RECTOR CHALLENGES
STEINMETZ THEORIES
The ReU. w. T. Walsh Be-
lieUes Religion Scientific.

The Rev. William It. Walsh. rector OF
st. Luke's Episcopal Church. Convent
avenue and West 141st street, yesterday
took issue with the statement OF Charles
J.. Steinmetz, that religion is based upon
belief and therefore is unrelated to
science.
"Real religion" said Mr.. Walsh. "is
based not on belief. but on needs and the
experience man has in meeting his needs.
When mans needs have been met he
might try 10 explain what forces were at
work. II you accept his explanation or
theory. that becomes your belief You
have not proved il for yourself.
"Dr. Steinnetz has an explanation, or
theory. OF gravitation quite different to
that generally held by scientists. But
their disagreement as to it's explanation,
or their Ignorance as 20 it's nature. does
not change the reality called gravitation
Religion is the finding Of tho answer 10
our needs. Theology IS an attempt to ex-
plain what II Is that meets them. But
again disagreement as TO the explanation
or ignorance Of the nature Of what we
term God docs not destroy His reality.
God is an energy. Experience teaches
how we can cooperate with Him.

Victor H., Arnold, a preacher with
out creed or church. who believes that
every man may find his own salvation in
the Gospel. spoke yesterday morning in
the Town Hall. His, subject was "rhe
Spirit of Truth" AS the service was
drawing to a close several hecklers
arose to challenge the speakers spir-
ituallty.
One lean individual who, it was
learned, long ago lost his amateur
standing as an interrupter OF public
meetings, rose to quote Scripture and to
criticize Arnold for taking up collec-
tion. What right have you to CONNER
cialize Christ's teachings?" he shouted.
Mr. Arnold stepped from behind the ros-
trum. "You are Judging from appear

for more music. The critic retired to
higher ground. We'll, you believe at
least in the gospel according to Luke"
How do you know 1t, sir; how do you

the pianist sounded the opening chords
OF the closing hymn.

His comrade went out another exit wav-

down the wrath of heaven upon -he
whole Times Square district.
A dozen groups formed for the denun-
citation of the hecklers or to attack Ar
mold. For an hour the fray lasted. Gu
rious passersby in Forty-third street
had to edge their way through the theo-
logical maze on the sidewalk. They
caught angry phrases floating out from
the foyer where good men and true
were exercising the right Of free speech.
Some of the phrases We're: THE
trouble with the church is this'-"Aw.

Long after the smiling speaker had
left the vicinity busy knots OF lay
prophets continued to call out to a world
that needed them not.
Mr.. Arnold. former banker of Madi-
son. Wis, who retired to the ministry
last February after the bond company
in which he held controlling interest
went into bankruptcy. has rented the

can't deny there is such a thing as
birth and family and station. That's
what the Castleburys think. also the
Tweedles. Their notion. which has
many advocates with other family
names, is what Booth Harrington
undertakes to make ridiculous in his
new comedy, Bristol Glass"
The comedy had it's first presenta-

with the youthful lovers OF the story
played by Ruth Gordon and Gregory
Kelley. The impulse to overestimate
q play which has its initial presenta-
ton in summer stock is great. but we
can't escape the conviction this is the
best play yet written by Harrington.
The comedy makes the familiar
point that persons who take pride in
their family name think of the few
ancestors who were more or less dis
tinguished and forget those who were
