EVERYONE
BEAUTIFUL,
PREDICTION
Only Badness Will Mar Us
800 Years From Now,
Says Doctor.

BIZ NEA Serrtce
NEW YORK, April 6.-Hollywood
sheiks and Atlantic City bathing re-
vue girls will throng the Main SITS.
of American 300 years from now.
Pretty faces, perfectly formed bodies,
flashing white teeth minus the bat
ting average of four out of five,
that smooth epidermis you simply
love to touch, bright eyes, athletic
strides and a breezy exuberance will
be rule and not the exception.
Such, in effect, is the prophecy of
DR.. Louis 1. Dublin, international
health authority, who has just COM
pleted an extensive world wide sur
vey for the statistical department of
the Metropolitan Life Insurance
Company.
THE human race is getting
healthier and handsomer," says DR..
Dublin, revealing for the first time
the composite report of leading medi-
cal operatives in London, Paris, Ber-
lin, Pekin, Vladivostok and other
centers.
1T is also growing older, on an
average, and consequently wiser. A
baby born 100 years ago, our fig
ures show, could expect to live only
one-half as long as a baby-born to-
day. All things being equal and al
lowing for cures for cancer, Bright's
disease and rheumatism, baby born
800 years from now can expect to
live twice as long again, which will
make us centenarians.
Increasing Life's Span
1.-THE life span in 1900 was in the
neighborhod of thirty-four years.
Today, latest reports show it is 5S.2
years. A cure for cancer will jump
the life span four years immedi-
ately. A sure cure for Bright's dis
ease would jump it another two
years.
Present day economics enters
into this, too. A baby born today
is worth S7,23S, more than the usual
high priced automobile. The value
Of its future earnings is approx.
mately $4,000.
THE process of raising a baby
may be compared with winding up
piece of machinery which is later
expected to do useful work. From
an economic standpoint the bringing
up of a child-under conditions to-
day-is very profitable investment
Science is cutting down the baby
losses annually and making the in
vestment more and more profitable.
Every year 10000 babies die from
altogether preventable conditions
during the first year of their life
Every year more than 10000 men
and women between % and 90 die
from entirely preventable causes
Their capital value, having in mind
net future earnings, is three-quar-
tiers of billion dollars. Losses are
much greater in other countries. We
are just scratching the surface here
in the United States. A noticeable
gain is reported everywhere, more
and more babies are surviving, more
and more young people are living
longer lives"

CZAR|ST OFFICER
SLAPS KERENSKY
TeIesnitsky Charges Former
Russian Premier With Crit
icizing United States.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
CHICAGO, April 25.--A former Of
f1cer of the imperial Russian army last
night publicly slapped the face of
Alexander Kerensky, first successor of
the Cars. 1t was the second incident
of the kind since Kerensky arrived
In this country.
The insult, q stinging blow with the
right palm, was administered as Ker-
ensl1y strobe into a banquet room at
the Palmer House, in which We're
gathered several hundred men of Rus
sian birth in sympathy with his efforts
to wrest control of Russia from the
Soviet government.
That" said DIR. Boris Gregory
Telesnitsky. as he slapped the one
time premier's face, lis for what YOU
did to the officers of the Russian
army"
AS the sound of the blow was heard
the banquet guests sprang to their feet
and rushed forward. Serge Busch
who was with DR. Telesnitsky. leaped
to his friends side, fists flew, and there
were angry cries in the Russian
tongue.
The maitre d'hotel and several wait.
ers fought their way to Kerensky's
side and seized DIR. Telesnitsky and
Busch. A detective arrived and the
two men were elected from the hotel.
DR., Telesnitsky thus explained his
action:
81 slapped Kerensky because I
wanted TO put some dignified indignity
upon him. Kerensky did enough harm
in the country that was my country.
don't want him coming here to do
things to the country that is now my
country. We understand from friends
that ,Kerensl1y has been crfticizing the
United States Government That's
why l slapped him"
Mr. Kerensky refused to prosecute.
1T is understandable, but regret
table, that former officers OF the Czarist
army should have acted sd" he said.
Several weeks ago Kerensky was
slapped by q woman as he addressed
a meeting in New York. SHE declared
she was avenging the death of her
sweetheart, a Russion soldiers.

BOOK OF STANDARDS
is ISSUED BY BUREAU
Work of Government Undertaken
in Recent Years Shows Gains
by Industry.

Condensing in one volume most of
the standardization work undertaken
by the Government in recent years,
the Bureau of Standards yesterday
issued the first STANDARD Yearbook, "
devoted to United States efforts in the
field of standardization throughout 25
years. The book will be issued an
nually hereafter.
standardization, the yearbook de.
clares, is the outstanding note Of the
twentieth century, ramifying to the
remotest details the industrial regime,
tapping all sources of scientific knowl-
edge and affecting every phase of de-
sign, production and utilization.
The yearbook goes into development
of standards in virtually every phase
Of manufacture and industry in the
United States, radio, chemistry, elec.
tricity weights and measures, time
standards, and every aspect of equip
ment used by the Government which
has been standardized over the last
four years.
The trend is away from mere du-
plication of material once found ac-
ceptable," the yearbook says, away
from mere brand designation, still fur
ther away from mere descriptive or
qualitative prescription. The trend is
toward q precise statement in meas
urable terms Of the magnitude of the
pertinent dimensions or properties
which determine the utility. The
trend is toward minimum of standards
of quality, perhaps single national
or even international standard, for
each service to be rendered, each need
to be met"

replacement of the oue-man cars on
the Anacostia line with the one-nan
cars of the new type similar to those

The principal objection of the cit
