A larger proportion of older people is found. however. among the well- to-do than the poor. and there is . definite relationship between the number of persons in one room and the death rate"
 The most general causes of ex- tended life are undoubtedly hered- itary." said Dr. Samuel Brown. pro- lessor of pharmacology at New York university. Food undoubtedly is . very important factor. Much comfort and physical we'll being may be gain ed by old people if they will take heed of their eating habits. The diet of old age should be mixed. simple. small in quantity. and emphasis should be laid on fruits and vege- tables, and care taken to prevent accumulation of retention of pro- tein,"
 "The brain itself does not grow old" said Dr. Frederick Tilney. pro- lessor of neurology at Columbia. but it may become impaired by disease and abuse.
 "The latter years no longer should be regarded as a time or retirement and of patient waiting. To grow old gracefully should be to accept old age as the time for which all the arduous years of life have been lived. No man should retire because his years are many By proper living and prophylaxis, man may keep posses- sion of fine. firm brain. though he be nearing the century mark"

New York. Oct. 1S.-In spite of modern science. improved living conditions, rejuenation. and psycho- anaiysis. the span of mans life, once he reaches middle age. ts no longer than the allotted three score and ten" of the days of King Solomon and David.
 Infant mortality has been low cred, and the diseases of childhood effectively combatted. but little has been done to counteract that in- exorab ble process known as natural aging"
 The average age at death is 57.7. Out of 10000 people
 72.074 will live to be 50
 69,6S9 will live to be 50
 4l.705 will live to be 70
 15.S3l will live to be so
 1,7S9 will live to be 90
 B will live to be 100
 All will be dead by the 1O7th year. Eminent physicians and scientists of this country and Europe. at a two-weeks' conference on old age held at New York Medical academy. have gathered these figures. Wheth- CT or not the span of life could be heightened. or should be, were mat ters of divided opinion.
 "A horse. maturing at five years. should live to be 25 years old" Dr. Gerald B. Webb of Colorado Springs pointed out. "A man natures at IS and therefore should live to be 90. Dr. Alfred Cohn of Rockefeller

Institute said age was . natural process and that medicine might fail in seeking to lengthen it. The break down of the arteries and heart. par ticularly the former. was the major cause Of the loss of vitality.
 For the aging body to be weak. and for the heart and indeed all the tissues to be desiccated is the natur- al process in aging organisms" he said. ''The aging process cannot be prevented by any means SO far dis covered. Or greater usefulness is the effort of hygiene and other means to provide an environment in which the aging process may be accomplished to its best and most undisturbed ad- vantage"
 Pointing out that years alone do not make people old, Dr. Louis l. Dublin. life insurance statistician. spoke of the necessity of differenti- ating between chronological old age and physiological old age. There is a method by which this may be done. and the actual tissue age of a man be determined-which might or might not agree with his birthday.
 Dr. Dublin, who voiced the belief that the span of life could be ex- tended. pointed out that the exten- sion must be affected through fight ing the degenerative diseases of chilhood and middle age, which bring on aging of the tissues. these being diphtheria. scarlet fever. measles, typhoid fever and pneu- monia.
 He also stated that health was not only an individual, but a community problem. Cities. he said. must cam- paign for better health as they do for better business.
 On the other hand. Dr. Linsly Williams. president of the New York Tuberculosis and Health association. said:
 Biologists and statisticians have proved to their satisfaction that pub- lie health measures have played but a small part in reducing mortality.
