[ Nation $ business

In the bookkeeping of human destinies
there must be a debit for every credit
Not even tie advance of medical science
III III art of life saving is an exception,
As the average span of life is extended
through steady reduction in the mortal
ltY from maladies, neW economic prob
lens are created.
During the next 10 years the popula-
ton over 81 years of age is expected to
increase by p per cent This is because
the treatment Of disease is increasingly
successful in keeping people alive past
that age. II Is mpanied-inevitably,
perhaps-by Il falling off in the birth
rate This means that by 1850 the total
population will not be more than five
per cent in excess of that today. The
number Of children will be markedly
fewer. They are already decreasing ev-
eTl year. There are more and more
empty seats in primary school rooms.
As the proportion Of old people rises
the security clamor grows and Town
Sendites increase. The number of mid
die aged also increases relatively to total
consumers and that makes more demand
for iobS-more unemployment, all other
factors being equal.
\ stationary population with fewer
and healthier children would seem to be
Il desirable consummation. But there
is /, biologic drawback even here. Natural
selection works best, produces Il more
vigorous people. when many are born.
The unfit are eliminated and the sur
viNors are hardy. The very incidence Of
a disease confers an immunity on the
survivors which is :: guaranty against
epidemcs.
All this means not that the progress
ct science should be relaxed but that we
must think out solutions To those new
problems that ar>t rs fast rs the old
ones are solved.

Sharply up are exports of iron
and steel products. metal working
machinery aircraft parts, and ac-
cessories, chemicals. tractors. trucks
and raw cotton-all of which are
highly useful in war

the bulk of the increase in our

i
A note reminiscent Of the 1882
baseball World Series was sounded
in Washington yesterday on the
eve of the Capitals first playoff
game for the professional foot
ball championship of the world.
The Chicago Bears were hardly
off their train when they were
informed by several not-So-
locally minded cab drivers that
the Redskins had been cheap"
in the way they sliced up their
end of the players pool, particu-
larly in cutting Anvil Andy
Farkas, their best running back
last year, and Don Irwin, as
sistant coach and general scout,
to half q share of the spoils.
The Bears joked about this at
first, but in their dressing room
one or two we're heard to bring
up the subject and it was pointed
out that their injured guard, Ray
Bray, who isn't even on the active
list now, had been voted a full
share.

It's anybody's ball game and the
final margin can be anywhere from
/ to 80 points.
That, in short, was the consensus
of the experts, rival coaches and
public alike as the Redskins and the
Bears tapered off with short, final

representing a record gate for pro
football but not a record attendance
for Washington-will be in their
seats anticipating a game equally
as thrilling as the one the same
teams waged for the 1887 title. Then
the Redskins came from behind
twice to win, 1921.
Because league officials ruled to
charge higher prices than ever
before in the eight-year history OF
title games between the Eastern and
Western champions, the receipts OF
something more than 100000, ex-
cluding radio fees, will net each
player of the winning side close 10
5000, with the losers getting some
$3.50 apiece less. But because the
Redskin management voted against
selling standing room, the crowd will
not equal the largest in local history.
That was the one attracted by the
Detroit Lions game last year when
sc, 1873 passed through the turnstiles.
Redskin Money Scarce.
Just before sending his Bears out
on the field for their last workout,
Owner-Coach George Hales laughed
at the rumor that local odds may
make his team as much as a s-5
favorite by game time.
They're ridiculous Odds" Halas
said. The game is a tossup, any
way you look at it. Out in Chicago
they were laying only 6-5 on the
Bears and giving the Redskins 3
points. But I wouldn't give either
team points if I were betting on
the game"
Just as reluctant to name a win
ner was Redskin Coach Ray Fla
herty, who called it an even-stephen
affair, with the breaks deciding it
"One or both teams may be hot, >

may end in a 4-touchdown rout for

The Texas eleven played near

power and speed to burn.
Hard-hitting Pete Layden, ver-
satile fullback, perhaps was the out
standing player on the field, but
there were so many stars there was
no keeping track of them.
Layden personally scored two
touchdowns and passed the ball on
another play on which Cowboy

Layden Gets Across.

up by a neat forward lateral from
Layden to Flanagan to Grain that
