Advance in medical science has been the chief reason for the prolongation of life. That advance not only pertains to the treatment of a disease; indeed the great- est success has been in the field of pre- ventive medicine and in the discoveries of the values of foodstuffs. The fact that the United States, as a rule, has been a well-fed nation has had much to do with average life extension. A balanced diet has had much to do also with the nation’s success in the spheres of industries and inventions. We should bear in mind that all of our great inventors came from old-world stock, but the difference in mentalities has been due to better living conditions. What.success would an Edison have had if he had been born and lived in India, a son of poor parents, as was the case in this country? He would have had to concern himself chiefly in getting enough to eat— a struggle that has beset and still is be- setting tens of millions of India’s vast population. Medicine and abundant foodstuffs have been the main reasons for the ad- vance in the average life in the United States. Average life of prehistoric man was placed at about 18 years in the dispatch to The Citizen. That average is purely a guess. Wells, in his Outline of History, speaks of the Old Man of 40 years, indi- cating an average life of about 25 years. Some scientists look forward to a time, in the far future, when the average life will be 200 years or more. Probably that time will come. If it does, it will be due to man’s learning more and more about the functioning of the body. “tic Russia does not desire, and there- fore it should have our wholehearted and confident endorsement. THE ORACLE. i PUERTO RICANS A PROBLEM In 1917, Congress gaye Puerto Ric- ans American citizenship. This means the Immigration Law does,not apply to them and thousands of Puerto Ricans are leav- ing the slums of Puerto Rico to become residents of tenment slums in East Har- lem, New York. The mass immigration is spectacular in that many immigrants come by airplane sitting in uncomfortable bucket seats, in reconverting, windowless airplanes, but changing, in a few hours, their homes from the shacks on the semi-tropical island to the flats on the east side of the American metropolis. One of the results of the migration is that the immigrants take advantage of re- lief measures in this country. Some people estimate’ that the Puerto Rican flood has put ’as'Many as a half million “citizens” in NewYork, where they threaten to be- come somewhat of a political problem. DEMOCRACY—TWO IDEAS The idea of demo y prevailing in the Western nations is based upon the right of the majority to control and the belief that the majority, in most instances, will be more nearly right than the minor- ity. This is not the Soviet idea of democ- racy. The “dictatorship of the proletariat” upon which communist rule is built means the definite regime of an “enlightened” minority, which, in theory, will represent the will and interest of the “majority” better than the “majority” itself, The Russian concept, it appears, is along somewhat the same lines that have been used in the past to justify political control of a state by an “aristocratic” group, - ’ ; The law of supply and demand, so of- ten quoted by economists, has been hog- tied for years. Why do not the European nations issue bonds to obtain necessary funds? They should be saleable both at home and abroad, and their value increase in time. That’s help yourself in the American manner. The law should have no_ favorites; when this is the case the law has no excus- es to make. U. S. TO AID CHINA There are indications that the United States will soon consider a program to as- sist China to stabilize itself economically and politicaly. Congress, it is d, will re- ceive definite proposals at its regular ses- sion which begins in January. The relations between the United States and China since the end of the war with Japan, have been somewhat varied. There was a_ period, as the con- flict ended, in which American assistance on a large scale was taken for granted. Thereatter, after special investigations, the idea dissipated and, apparently, there was much less of a desire to assist the Na- tionalist Government in China. Recent developments in the Far East have caused a change in official opinion. Secretary of State Marshal] disclosed to legislative leaders that the “situation in China continues to cause us deep con- cern” and that “Chinese communists, by force of farms, see control of wide areas of China.” . The Secretary of State made it clear that the National Government is recog- nized as the sole legal government in China and that we should “extend the government and its people certain eco- nomic aid and assistance.” : The Russian attitude in Korea has no doubt had some influence in the develop- ing desire to assist the Chinese. Secre- tary Marshall, it will be recalled, made a special trip to China to study its prob- lems and is in a position to interpret the flow of reports and communiques that come from American officials country. ene ee The law is the refuge of scoundrels, but it is also, very often, the safeguard of honest people. CITY GETS MONEY BACK The City of Albany, Georgia, was pleasantly surprised the other day when a new industrial plant gave a check for $22,660 in payment for land upon which the plant was constructed. It seems that the City, about a year ago, donated the land to the Clark Thread Company: as a site for a new finishing plant. The company built the plant, but when it was dedicated, returned the money. The municipality was flabbergast- jed, no doubt, to get its money back.

TUESDAY PEACE PLATE A satisfying Peace Plate omelet like any of those suggested below by the Consumer Service Section of the Citizens Food Committee is a simple solution to the problem of observing “meatless” Tuesday — and a nutritionally sound one, too. Cheese Omelet is a good alternate for meat because two of its major ingredients—eggs and cheese—fur- nish highest-quality protein, A combination that goes well with this cheese omelet is buttered Brussels sprouts or broccoli, and split muffins or rolls spread with butter or fortified margarine, sprinkled with celery salt and toast- ed. Have a substantial dessert like apple dumplings or a fruit tapioca.
