ADD TO SPAN OF
LIFE IN STATE
Control of Communicable Dis
eases, Sanitation and
Education Aids
REPORT OF STATE BOARD

In the comparatively brief span
OF forty-one years, the average
span of life in Delaware has in
creased by sixty-seven percent!
The average Delawarean in 1884
lived twenty-five years longer than
his average ancestor in 1898, ac.
cording to figures recently conpil-
ed from records of the State Board
of Health. In 1898, the average
age at time of death was only
years, as compared to
an average of fifty-ive in 1884.
Control of communicable diseases,
sanitation, education in
habits of health, and infant mortal
ity prevention work are thought to
have played large parts in this in
crease in normal expectation of
life. The median age has risen
even more markedly, from twenty
five to sixty in the same years. The
median age is that central point on
either side of which occur one-half
of the deaths, by ages; probably
the largest individual factor in re-
CARDS to the improvement in both
median and average death rates is
the improvement in infant mortal
ity which has taken place in the
last twenty years, say State Health
authorities. According to the fig
ures in the files of the Bureau of
Vital Statistics of the State Board
of Health, more Delawareans die
at age sixty or over than die in all
the age groups under sixty. This
is due. says DR.. A. G. Jost, Execu-
tive Secretary, to the fact that Del
aware exports" a large part of its
youthful and middle age groups.

Modified Powers Predicted
for President in Handling
s4,880, 1000, 1000.
BY the Associated Press

BY the Associated Press.
A prediction that the increased
powers sought by the administration
in its s4,sao, ,oo0. 900 work-relief bill
would be modified, came today Trom
the Democratic side Of the Senate Ap-
preparations Committee
Some members Of the committee
told that persons on relief will be with
out funds next Monday unless the bill
is passed-were reported to be seeking
compromise with the White House.
The extent of the sentiment for
modification remained in doubt. One
member Of the committee predicted
that two provisions conferring powers
on the President will be eliminated.
Chairman Glass said only that
changes of some sort were certain.
Byrnes Defends Powers.
Another Democratic member, Sena-
tor Byrnes of South Carolina, spoke
in defense of the freedom sought by
Mr. Roosevelt in handling the huge
fund.
1.-THE President should be given a
free hand in administering the act and
in deciding what work should and
should not be done by contract" he
said in an address in the National
Radio Forum.
The measure as now worded would
allow the President to select the prof.
ects to be carried out with the S4,-
900 100000 provided for ending the
dole. He would be permitted to deter
mine how much should be spent on
subsistence homesteads, rural electri-
fication, grade-crossing elimination
and on down the list.
Ickes Keeps Hands OF.
To quiet a House group, the ad-
ministration recently let Democratic
leaders understand President Roose-
velt would run the program himself
instead of Secretary 1ckes. public works
administrator. Ickes found Glass and
other members of the Senate COM
mittee complimentary to him when
he testified before them, but he quick
ly discouraged a suggestion that the
bill be changed to make him admin
istrator.
1T would be very flattering TO me-"
he said, "but naturally / prefer to
have the Joint resolution go through
as the President wants it."
Separate Bill Possible.
II the work relief bill should bog
down in Senate debate, observers saw
a possibility that separate bill might
be introduced to appropriate the $780,
nd r01inf hafnro
work plan can get under way.
Relief officials say funds supplied
by the F. E. r. A will be exhausted
Monday, except possibly in a few
States. They insist they see no way
to meet this situation except an
appropriation by Congress.

Youthful witness
Withdrawn by Reilly.
Court reconvened at 1:46 pm.
The jury was polled and the de-
tense called as its first witness of the
afternoon session Benjamin Heller.
Heller said he lived at 20 Front
street, Brooklyn. He said he was a
writer, but was working as a cashier
In hospital.
His occupations also included clerk
ship in his brothers store. The stocky,
curly-haired young man said he was
"a years old.
Q. On April 2, 1882. were you out
with a young lady?
A. Yes, sir.
Reilly interrupted the train Of his
questioning TO complain against an
outburst Of tittering in the court
room. Justice Trenchard warned the
spectators to preserve the proper de-
corum.
The chief defense counsel asked
what led the witness to appear for the
defense. The State objected and Reilly
abruptly withdrew the witness with
out further questioning.
Victor Schussler, a thin-faced little
man, was called next. He said he and
his wife occupied rooms in the same
Bronx house that the Hauptmanns
lived in.
The witness in broken English said
he and his wife were frequent visitors
at the Hauptmann fiat and knew the
defendants friends.
Reilly asked Schussler If he were
present at the farewell party for Fisch
and the witness answered in the af-
firmative.
The witness stated he had lived in
the same house with Hauptmann from
August /, 1892, until November, 1884.
O. Since Hauptmann's arrest YOU
have missed some of your tools which
you kept in the cellar? A. Yes.
The thin, sick-looking man in the
witness chair enumerated the tools he
ha6 missed since the Hauptmann ar
rest.
Reilly then surrendered the witness
to the State.
Friend of Hauptmann's
Is Called Next.
Wilentz exhibited the chisel found
at the estate. but the witness could
not identify it. He told his cross
examiner that he had not lost a
plane. Wilentz elected from him that
he was suffering from heart trouble
and released him with few questions
Reilly asked if Hauptmann was
kind to his family and Schussler said
he was.
Wilentz returned to the questioning
@. Didn't you tell the police you
wondered why Hauptmann didn't
work?
A. I was wondering why he didn't
work
SchuSSler was excused.
Reilly next called Mrs. Matilda
Heyne Of Elizabeth, a sliSl little wom-
an, who was a close friend Of the
Hauptmanns.
She told Of being at the farewell
party for Fisch at the Hauptmann
home on the night Of December 2,
1888.
@ Were you there when Mr.. Fisch
arrived?
A. I was.
The witness said she did not see
Fisch come in, and the State took
her for a very brief cross-examinatio
and then excused her.
Otto Heyne, husband of the pre-
ceding witness, took the stand next.
He recounted his nine-year friendship
with the Hauptmanns and his at
tendance with his wife at the Fisch
farewell party
Q. Did you see Fisch arrive?
A. No. We were in the front room.
Wilentz took the witness, asking If
Hauptmann didn't tell him in June
1884, he was working as a carpenter
Heyne said he did not and was ex-
cused.
