in other words, a 80 year old
American man could expect to
exceed 6e years in life expect
ancy. The lowest five in reverse
order are India, Chile, Egypt,
Japan and France.
How do we stand on doctors for
these nations? The U. S. A. and
New Zealand Fourth on the list
each reported 800 inhabitants per
doctor. Sweden had 1900; Den
mark 1000; Netherlands 1,4O0;
Canada 800 and Australia 1000.
These are the high countries
with high life expectancy. At the
other end of the scale are France
1000; Japan 1900; Egypt 4,50O,
and no figures for Chile.
|, It is interesting to note that in
spite of our great medical ad-
vancement in which we lead the
world, the U. S. A, is No. 8 on
the list. This would seem to be
an indication that we still have a
substantial distance to go in mat
tiers of health conducive to in
creasing the life span.

LIFE EXPECTANCY

Modern science has made it
possible to live longer in almost
all parts of the world. The life
life expectancy of man has in
creased generally in the last so
years to a marked degree.
The United States does not top
the list in the life expectancy fig
ures. despite the fact that we
seem to have more doctors per
hundred thousand citizens than
most all of the countries in the
world. Top honors 60 to Swed-
en-, with Denmark, the Neither
lands, New Zealand, Canoda,
Australia, England and Wales all
following in order ahead of the
U. S. A.
While the figures may not be
completely comparable due to
their being checked in different
years they are about the best we
can go on at the moment.
Sweden, according to World
Facts and Figures, issued by
the United Nations, is the nation
with the highest life expectancy.
In tho period 1941-45. Swedish
man of 80 could expect to live to
h e age of 1851 years. AT
the bottom of the list of the ma.
tions reported was India. As of
the time the figures were taken
for India a male Indian of 80
could expect to live until he was
52.3 years of age.
The U. S. A. figure, compare
lively speaking. was 1918 years

Buffer Lacquer

Much woodenware and many nov

built up to from .003 to 005 inches
in thickness which is sufficient to
take a good buffed finish and to
prevent the buffing wheel from cut
ting through.

PRESERVING Horpers Ferry

The people of the Nations Capital have a
natural interest in the preservation of the his
torc areas by which it is surrounded; and
Harpers Ferry, West Virginia, only SIS miles west
certainly is one of these. Plans for acquisition
of approximately 400 acres of land at the point
where the Shenandoah and the Potomac break
through the Blue Ridge Mountains are being
formulated. This terrain if the project succeeds,
would be committed to the guardianship of the
Department of the Interior as national property
worthy of protection for its significance in the
annals of the country
A man whose name was Robert Harper
settled in the neighborhood about 1747 and
operated ferry which was a convenience much
used by travellers between the East and the West
Gradually village developed around his home.
The modern town still commentaries him. Yet
he was relative nonentity compared with some
of the great characters who visited the place
repeatedly. George Washington appreciated the
water power of the amalgamated river so much
that he recommended that the Nations second
Federal arsenal be built nearby.
The incident which gave the site its principal
fame, however, occurred on October 16, 1859,
when Harpers Ferry was more than century
old. John Brown of Osawatonie, the most
fanatical of the abotionists, was responsible for
what happened. Acting on a scheme dating back
fifteen years, he led band of ~ men in an

modern inventions and discoveries which
make all the world whispering gallery
and neighborhod. This privilege
smashing truth has always been known
and proclaimed by religion. 1T has
been the church that has hung map
of the world before the eyes of its
children and youth. The plaintive Negro
spiritual was but ernbodying the funda-
mental tenet Of Christianity when it
dared to assert: "All Gods chillun got
WINGS"
In the matchless parable of the Good
Samaritan the greatest of all teachers
is disregarding class and race, and even
organized religion. when He declares:
Humanity is one. From the privileges
and comforts Of our Western life for
a hundred years choice souls have gone
out, forsaking all. to pour forth their
life as costly ointment in the neediest
parts Of the world. It was the convic-
tion that humanity is one that speeded
them on their way. It was that burn
ing belief that led Livingstone to say,
in deathless words now engraved at his
burial place in the floor of Westminster
Abbey:
May heavens richest blessing come
Gown on every one. American, English,
Turk, who will help to heal the open
sore OF the world"
This is the great and glorious truth
that governments as we'll as churches,
are sensing now, in new vision of shar-
ing as the opulence of favored peoples

Peace of Mind

DR.. Karl Menninger of Topeka, Kansas, is a
celebrated psychatrist, and so he ought to know
What he says is that people who want peace of
mind are making mistake when they set out
with grim determination to find it, The way to
find it, in his opinion, Is to forget about ito
lose ones self in talk, play, work and love (not
necessarily in that order). This seems to make
a lot of sense. It should be taken to heart by
any of us (and who's an exception?) who is
intent these days upon figuring out how to re-
act to world events the way ducks back reacts
to water Actually, come to think of it, the more
one tries to do that, the more agitated the
psyche becomes. The thing is in a class with
striving to get back to sleep during At of
insomnia. If the insomniac would just refuse
to give second thought to his trouble, If he
would stop worrying about how tired he'll feel
in the morning unless he does get back to Sleep
then he would quickly be in the arms of Nor
pfeus, dreaming away, quite restfully, to his
hearts content. That which we seek assidu-
ously, especially If it involves the spirit or BRAIN
is generally very difficult to grab hold of. If we
want contentment within ourselves land we
must remember that too much of 1t could be
bad) probably the best course to follow is sim
ply to stop looking for 1t and relax. Dr. Men
ningers advice deserves attention. Why should
we let Stain, like Banquo's ghost, haunt our
thoughts and spoil our dinners? After all, there's
a lot more to life than II 3at.

Letters to The Star

as true today as 1t was on November 5.
Ex-Prince Georges Teacher and the
Prince Georges Parent have made a
momentary public contribution through
the interest that their letters have Gre
ated. But they could make lasting con-
tr1bution If they would come out from
behind their pseudonyms and participate
actively in organizations seeking the
roots of the evil.
The crux Of our school situation is
that our expenditure per pupil is not
enough. If the expenditure was raised
from $3.50 (the 1950-51 leveD to $3.50 per
pupil. it would represent tax increase
OF 43 cents per $100 valuation. The tax
increase on property assessed at 5000
would be $215O
Ex-Prince Georges Teacher and the
Prince Georges Parent should spear
head movement to convince the ma
jority OF citizens in Prince Georges
County that it is more important to
spend $21.50 additional on education in
stead OF on a television receiver Then.
and only then. can they expect their
elected officials to solve the school
problem.
