SCIENTISTS TOLD HABITUAL
LIQUOR USERS LIVE LONGER
THAN THOSE WHO SHUN RUM
WASHINGTON, D. C. May 15
Papers relating chiefly to the medical
sciences and including one by Dr. Ray
mond Pearl, of the Johns Hopkins Un
iversity, presenting “Expectation of
life,” tables on users of alcohol, cal
culated in the same manner as life in
surance mortality tables, were read
today at the concluding sessions of
the annual meeting of the National
Academy of Sciences.
“Steady drinkers,” Dr. Pearl said,
“have a better expectation of life at
all ages from 30 on to the end of the
life span than do total abstainers.”
His tables, he explained, were based
on data including “exact records as
to the drinking habits of thousands
- of persons thruout their lives,” and
covering: more than 150,000 person
years “exposure to risk.”
The difference in the life span ex
pectations of steady drinkers and to
tal abstainers, he said, “are not very
great, but there is a distinct and well
marked advantage in favor of the mod
erate steady drinkers.”
“Heavy drinkers,’ he continued, “have
the poorest expectation of life at all
ages after 30 in the case of females,
and at all ages after 30 and up to
about 65 in the case of males. From
about 65 on the hevy drinking males
and total abstaining males have about
the same expectation.”

SKELETON OF MOOSE AND
MAN WITH BROKEN KNIFE
REVEAL DEATH STRUGGLE
KALISPELL, Mont. May 15—Discov
ery near one of the Glacier National
Park chalets, north of here, of the
skeleton of a giant bull moose and a
man with a rifle and broken hunting
knife, are interpreted as recording a
battle to death years ago between the
animal and the trapper.
An unexploded shell jammed into
the loading mechanism of the rifle,
together with the broken blade, was
regarded as indicating a resort to the
knife when a first shot failed to stop
the charging beast.
Early settlers in this vicinity said
they remembered a French-Canadian
Lrapper who operated here some twen
ty years ago and believed the remains,
might be his. , 1
