RUSSIAN TOWNS FOUND
HEALTHIER THAN FARMS
Infant Mortality Rate Declared
Much Greater in Country and
Length of Life Less
Correspondence Of the Associated Press.

Correspondence Of the Associated Press.
ERINAN. Russian Armenia. August
21.-Town life in Russia Ia more
healthy than peasant life in the coun'
tryside, a survey made by the Ameri-
can Near East Relief in Russian Ar
menia shows.
The investigators found in a study
of disease, mortality and sanitation
that there is no ground for the time
honored belief that rural life Is in
herently wholesome. The farmer and
his family. contrary to general be-
lief, live under sanitary conditions
which average lower than the town
dwellers The old oaken bucket OF
the farmer frequently carries the
germs of typhus and other water
borne disease; the average Russian
farmhouse Is hermeticaHy sealed
dwelling TO which the th-giVlng
qualities of sun and air have infre-
ouent access. and hygiene among the
Armenian peasa ntry is on a very low
basis. The infant death rate among
the farm dweIlers is everywhere high
er than that OF the towns. and the
average lifetime of the farm worker
is three wears less than that of the
urban inhabitan
The natural advantages which the
rural district possesses are more than
offset by the ignora ance and negligence
of the peasant in observing the most
elementary principles Of hygiene.
The Armenian relief orga nization. in
connection with It's plan for removing
thousa nds of its orphan charges from
institutions to homes in various dis.
tricts of Armenia. has found II neces-
sary to install service Of public
health nurses, who are gradually rails
ing the standa rd of rural life through

NAVY.

The final chapter upon the applica
ton of Rear Admiral John K Robi-
son. engineer in chief of the Navy and
chief of the Bureau of Engineering,
for retirement In his present grade
prior TO the termination of his admin
lstrat1on of the Bureau of Engineering
affairs: seems from all appearances to
have been written by the White
House. Unless presidential approval
is given to the admiral's application
TO be placed upon the retired list of
the naval establishment, he will. when
severins his active connection with
the naval service. leave the Navy hold
ing the grade of captain.
Heretofore applications for retire
ment submitted to the Navy Depart
ment under similar conditions as exist
in the Robson case have been merely
routine matters handled by the Sec
retary of the Navy. NAVY Depart
ment officials long in the service of
the naval establishment were unable
to recall such a precedent which any
Chief Executive has set as has been
done in this case. That Admiral Robi.
son has host of friends throughout
the Navy is a well known fact. and
influential friends of the admiral who
have a large following in Congress
have threatened to bring this case UP
in the approaching session of Con
sress. 1t is pointed out that presi.
dental refusal for not approving Ad.
mirai Robison's application for retire
ment was based entirely on letter
written by the attorneys in the oil
lease cases. despite the fact that the
admiral was not only exonerated by
two Federal judges. but was highly
commended by these two eminent ju-
| rists for his able administration of the
oil reserves.
1t is understood that the Secretary
of the Navy: strongly approved Ad
miral Robison's application for retire
ment. and with the Secretary's letter
were inclosed commendable extracts
from the admiraTs commanding Off
GERS and also one from Secretary of
Commerce Hoover.
From the Navy sta ndpont. it Is
stated that Admiral Robson has been
meted out double punishment for obey
ing the orders of his superiors and in
his administration of the oil reserves.

We're due to two things the

Regular Army officers engaged in this

Not only have a great number Of
firms indicated their ability and will
1ngness to produce the material, hut
they have gone so far as to prepare
complete plans for the conversion Of
their factories and to prepare lists of
machine tools, gauges and fixtures and
the amounts and best sources of the
raw materials which will be needed.
