although the death rate has been
decreased to an astonishing degree,
due chiefly to the greater care given
infants, Doctor y. George Payne,
professor Of educational sociology,
told the assembly Of the New York
/ University summer school.
II anything, the span OF life has
shrunk a. little. Professor Payne
said. This results from the fact
that although most persons now
know the elementary principles of
hygiene, few of them take the
trouble to observe these rules. The
principal panacea, the lecturer said,
Is a program of moderate daily ex.
ercise.
Doctor Payne said that attending
games and races is the nearest ap-
proach the average person takes to
getting exercise, and while he had
no fault to find with WITNESSING
such exhibitions. he insisted this
pleasure could not be taken as a
substitute for individual exercise,
Thousands of men and women
have learned from childhood that
daily exercise is a necessity" he
said, but in spite of that they
continue to take their exercise

To Her Plea for Decree

Alleging misconduct by his wife,
Mrs. Seade g. Fillah; 1889 Tenth
street northwest, George Al. Fillan,
1913 North Capitol street, today filed
cross suit for absolute divorce in
the District Supreme Court. The
suit Is in answer to his wife's bill
for limited divorce, in which she
charges cruelty and inadequate sup
port.
Fillah denied her charges and
attached to his paper copies of
letters which his wife Is alleged to
nave written to another man called
"Chicery" He alleges. that at one
time when he attempted to kiss his
wife, while she was engaged in cut
ting meat with butcher knife, she
replied, Let me alone, Take your
hand off me, or else I will stab you
with this knife"
Some of the alleged messages to
Chicery" are couched in endearing
terms. One of them dated June Is,
1923 says In part, II. received your
letter today. opened it and de-
stroyed the envelope and began to
read your letter. with shaking hands
ana palpltating heart, because of
the JOY which had overtaken me
when / received your letter."
My beloved Chicery," the letter
continues, you mention in vour
letter that you are not feeling well.
l thought that my. absence from
you would bring grief and III health.
'beseech you not to worry. but
think that / am with you always.
l am depending upon God that he
may reunite us the third time, AMI
that to be the inseparable union. !"
In another letter Mrs. Fillah is
alleged to have written, my dear
life5 ], wish you were travelling
with me in this beautiful moon.
light instead of my being alone
and no fellow with me. L .implora
the Lord of Heaven and His
Throne to afford me rest (sIeep)
IN your bosom and that your hands
may cover me-"
Fillah CLAIMS these letters were
written to one Chicery Matthews in
Rio de JaneiIo. On one occasion
the husband says he accused his
wife OF having a sweetheart, in
Rio de JaneiTo. and alleges she re-
Piled, Yes, / have four over there,
and besides I am married to that
man; now what are you going to do
about it?"N
After her return from Brazil, the
husband alleges her attitude toward
him changed materially.
He asks for the custody Of the
children, and TO be appointed trustee

AGREEMENT IS SEEN
Proposals Given Soviet Dele.
GATE to London Believed
to Presage Amity.
By the Associs ted Press.

By the Associated PTesS.
MOSCOW, August 1.-After a series
of hurried conferences with the gov
ernment respecting the present status
of the Anglo Russian conference, NJ.
Rakovsky, the principal soviet dele
gate left yesterday for London by
airplane.
In collaboration with the council of
commissars he has formulated set
of new proposals for submission to
the British government, which, in the
opinion of responsible officials here,
removes the obstacles which hitherto
have hindered a successful outcome
of the conference.
While some of these proposals are
suggestive of the previous soviet for
mulae for a settlement, 1t is believed
: in governmental quarters that their
more liberal character will convince
the British government of the SINGER
ity of the soviet desire to reach an
early solution. 1t is also thought
that the new terms will satisfy the
British bondholders and result ulti-
mately in loan from British bank
ers under a guarantee from the Lon
don government.
In framing fresh proposals regard
ing the claims of former British prop
erty owners in Russia, the council Of
SJmmissars was particularly careful
to conserve the soviet laws concern
ing naturalization of property and
to guard against the Sacrifice of any
of the soviet revolutionary principles.
