The life of France is bound to run out until there is no more France. This is the opinion expressed today by Dr. Florence Child, (WSJ McKcnn avenue. Germnntown, just returned from eighteen months in France. Dr. Child is an expert on child hygiene, and as such had charee of the American Red Cross Contagious Hospital lor Children nt Evian-lcs-Bains. France. "To illustrate whatj I mean about France dying out but fo'r the aid of the American Red Cross, let me cite the instance of one of the towns I worked in, no more serious than the condition before wo came of hundreds of other French cities," she said, "At Montlucon, with n population of 33,000, the number of births for 1018 was 400 and the number of deaths was over 1000. Extinction Threatened "A noted French statistician recently showed that in from thirty to thirty five ycais there would be no more France unless something was done to save the children. It was not suf ficient to save the wounded und let the babies die. Tet they were dying bv hundreds nnd thousands of them in all the villages and towns of Franco. And the American Red Cross felt that it must come in nnd complete its work of saving France. Wc did. "Wo found that all over France, es pecially in the smaller towns, the people were living as though in the Middle Ages, in houses built before Christopher Columbus discovered America. "There was practically no light, the windows nre so narrow. These they would never open, being afraid of the air. There was no plumbing anil tncrc forc no sanitation. The houses have no water. Long walks to a pump in the center of n town must b'c taken for every drop of water. So they got used to doing without it. They gave none to their babies. "The women wash their laundry in the river. In winter ice must be broken before they can wash the'w clothes. As a result they are -not anxious for washing days to come around nnd do not change their cloth ing very often. "The women admired the physique Salaries of nil full-time Instructors, nssistant professors and professors of the University of Peunsjhnnia will be Increased from 10to 25 per cent, be ginning next fall. Announcement to this "effect was made today by Provost Edgar Fnhs Smith, the bonrd of trustees having approved n new scale of remuneration at a meeting held ou Mouday last. This action closely follows the resig nation of Prof. J. Russell Smith, n member of the Wharton School faculty, who bitterly airaigncd the failure of the I I'nlversity to provide snlnries adequate to meet the increased cost of living nnd tnaracteiizcd the pay as "starvation wages."
