PACtt TWO FINDS LIFE SPAN GROWING SHORTER: I New York State Health Chief i Says More Care Is Needed II 49-55 DANGEROUS AGE FOR MOST MEN City Dwellers Live Longer - - - ^ W-k ? I I Than Residents 01 tturai Regions. The average lifetime of man is tending to become shorter, and that tendency is not more marked in the cities, as one might be led to suspect, but in the country districts. It is there says the Now York Times, that the New York Sate reconstruction commission, which has been studying ttm health problem for a year, finds the most urgent need for S'ate aid, and it is with respect to the conditions that were revealed in the study of that problem that Dr. Henry Dwight Chapin, chairman of the commission's committtee on public helath, spoke. Dr. Chapin emphasized the fact that instead of man's life stretching out to the allotted three score and ten, it was becoming more and more common for it to terminate somewhere between the ages of 49 and 55. "This," Dr. Dwight said, "is the "dan gcrous age" of human life, from the physical point of view. Statistics show that it is at this period that death is , most widespread. And they also show that once a man or woman has passed this period his longevity is reasonably well assured and there is every probability that he will live to n ripe old age. As the years go by the prevalence of life-tormination at the 49-to-55 period of life, rather than decreasing, is growing steadily stronger. "It is the men and women of th's age that the country can most ill afford to lose, for they are probabiy its mdst useful citizens. They have reached the fruition of their knowledge; they have in most cases brought into the world children whom ' they are busily engaged in training' to become healthy, helpful members | of the community. It is the men ->f this age who hold the best positions in the business and civic world by reason of their experience, and who probably form the firm economic background of the community. j "The prevalence of death among the men and women of this age is m direct contradiction to the law of na- 1 ture. The length of life of the animal body should naturally be five times the length of time required for th" growth of its bones. If the hones take two or thiee years to develop the life-time of the animal should be ten or fifteen years?this, of course ( aside from death by ace'dent or from: any such outside cause. The b :n?s of the human animal develop until the" ?hild is well along in its 'teens.

TIIACIIER'ft MVr.n ivt, ^MM JoiiiR in recommending this tonics-Mrs. Ustlanoogv ^^HjLaHH I obvious, thereforef that man, with'all ' his growth in the mastery of the science, with his wonderful achievements, is not only failing to go forward in that greatest of all sciences, the prolongation of life, but is going steadily backward. " 'It's only natural that that should be so,' is what most people would answer to this. 'Life is becoming more complex,' they would say. There is more wear and tear upon the mind and body of the individual. Of course, he cannot last so long as he formerly did." In reply to this Dr. Chapin pointed out that it is in the cities that the complexities of life?increase most rapidly. "And," he continued, " it is ? * 11 i i i ? i. a y _ in tne cities tnat tne ueam rate is tne lowest, and it is in the rural districts, in the isolated and sparsely populated communities, that it is brought to its overwhelming proportions. Therefore, since it is not natural that men and women should die thus early in life, and since obviously it is not mainly from outside causes that the minority of these deaths do occur, it is from something unnatural, something remediable. "And if it is remediable, obviously its growth denotes lack of care and prevention. Why is the death rate so low in the cities. Because in these communities you find hospitals, our welfare stations, your organized char itics. It is there that, whatsoever the need of the human being he can most readily and satisfactorily find help in his difficulty. There physicians of all kinds are numerous, hospitals open their doors to the rich and the poor alike. That then is the solution of the problem?constant care and help when it is needed. In the isolated communities doctors are scarce, people are left to shift more or less for thoemselvcs?and through sheer laziness they do it rather more than less. If a man has to drive several miles behind a horse over rough roads to see why he has that queer pain m his ear or over his heart, the chances are that he will postpone the trip from day to day. And if so happens that one doctor is an authority on ailments of the ear while another some distance away is an authority on the heart, your man isn't going to bother going to both these places?he'll see to one ailment and very probably neglect the other altogether. "So that is not sufficient that we confine our health care to the young of our country?in whom such care is coming more and more to center, ovon fhnnirh it hp tmip that, it ist to the young that the nation looks as its strength and the strength of the com ing generation. The adult too must have his sources of care and help i.1 the immediate vicinity." It is the opinion of the State recon structtion commission that such help can ho carried to outlying districts only under State supervision. Regular, frequent, thorough physical ex animations aie necessary if tho ^ people are to ho kept in fullest phy sical well-being. For this it is essential, according to the commission, that there he maintained in each community of sufficient size a health cen t?r, with State appropriations, io assist in its maintenance and supervision. The commission aims not so much at the establishment of new organization of help as the correlation under one roof of all existing crgan ized bodies of that description in a community, a centc r where nearly alt kinds of physical help could he adm'n istered. i ITS UNWISE S to put off to-day's duty until to* j morrow.
