NEW YORK, N. Y.-The expectation of life, at birth reached an all-time high of 65.6 years in 1946 among American wageearners and their families, the statisticians of an insurance company report on the basis of the experience among the company's industrial policyholders. This is a gain of more than a half year over 1945, a gain of more than five years over the past decade, and of almost 19 years since 1911. The report of the statisticians for 1946 summarizes the year's experience for the company as follows:

The age-adjusted death rate

from all causes set a new mini

mum. Record low mortality was registered for scarlet fever, whooping cough, diphtheria, pneumonia, diarrhea and enteritis, appendicitis, and the conditions incidental to childbearing. The signal victories achieved ever these diseases in recent years reflect, in large measure, the benefits derived from the newer methods of treatment, in-

... I

eluding the use of the sulfa drugs and penicillin. Among the principal com-, municable diseases of childhood, the mortality from measles alone showed a slight increase, but 1946 was a "measles year." In spite of the relative prevalence' of the disease, the death rate re-1 mained very low only six per million policyholders. j Of the diseases of middle and !

later life, the age-adjusted (death!

rates from cancer and diabetes showed practically no change from 1945, and the group of cardiovascular-renal diseases registered a decline from the previous year. An epidemic of , acute respiratory diseases early in the year was reflected during January and February in high mortality from influenza and pneumonia and a considerable, though, temporary, increase in tuberculosis mortality, but the effect of the epidemic was offset by low mortality from

these diseases during - the succeeding months. Infantile paralysis also reached epidemic proportions with more than 25,000 cases in the general population of the United States, second only to the alltime high of . 29,000 in 1916. The death rate among the policyholders last year, however, was

only 1.4 per 100,000 as compared with 12.2 in 1916. The statisticians note a decline of nearly 13 percent in the mortality from accidents of all kinds, although the motor vehicle death rate rose sharply, returning to the level of 1942. Suicides and homicides also registered higher rates during the year.

"I'll win and come for you," Ralls said.

RALLS' battle with the octopus moved swiftly to a climax. . He lowered a taut arm before thrusting deep the blade ' of death: He felt the rending of tough flesh, the spasmodic jerks if the-flattehed bulb and then he was twisting free. The cfcest was put quickly on the lifting ropes and darkness drew a curtain over him ..." Alone at her request, Angelique tended the half-con- , scious Ralls a short time later. "Ralls, my Ralls," she , whispered and then as she bent over him, out of nowhere came his answer, "Angelique, I love you." "Why didn't you claim me?" she pleaded. In a moment he was awake. "I can't explain," he said. "But I'M win and then I'll come for you." Angelique lowered her eyes and sighfd heavily. "As another man's wife 111 have nothing to do with you."

"Taaro Titsi lias placed a tapu on the pearls," he said.

That night there was a great feast to celebrate Rails' victory over the. octopus. The adventurer watched greedily while the natives prepared to cremate a valuable black, pearl as their offering to Taaro Tiki and he planned desperately how to turn events to real advantage and win. the great trea-.uie. , - At last the moment came as the pearl. was about to be cast into the flames. Ralls rose majestically and addressed the high priest. "1 have received a message, O.wise Kuirinua. It is as I thought. Let there be silence while 1 convey the words to you." Mayrant Sidneys grinned while Ralls whispered his "message from the gods" into the ear of the high 'priest. How well Ralls planned was shown v.iti the priest addressed the natives. '

Desaix's gun came up and a shot, rang out "Tasro.Tiki has placed a new tapu on the sacred pearls," ' he infamed them. "Never again must they go back to the cavern. They are doomed to be scattered over the face of the eartj.by the son of Taaro Tiki" he indicated Ralls ! "and mere pearls gathered each year for him ... We will cremate nstcad, the eye of the demon . . ." So Rals owned all of the pearls! Jacques Desaix had been, graving angry and drunk as he watched the cere-' ,mohy. Sutdenly he rose, pistol in hand., "The son of Taaro Tiki is a twax," he cried. "He is a wandering scoundrel who has cheatei you of your wealth. In the name of the French Republic, I place him under arrest. Ralls, do you submit? He stood waving and Ralls stared at him.
