SECOND STAGE OF RECOVERY Anjrone wlio has studied the public reaction to tue icvuveiy program cannot have failed to notice that we recently have passed from the first phase of this experiment into the sec ond. The first phase was the era of unanimous public ap proval. Few of us unclersUiod exactly what was going on. but we could see that some definite action was being; taken, and we liked the idea. There were no dissenting votes. Everything that was done drew a round of cheers. ' Now things are different Criticism has begun. . The various acts of the recovery program are being submitted to searching analysis, and those who believe they see defects are not backward about calling attention to them. : ' It would be a mlgalre to assume that this criticism proceeds solely from those who hsi prtraie axes to grind. There is some sniping going on. of course, touched off by gross selfishness: yet that In itself is not enough to explsin the change In the public's attitude. Endently we surtply came to the end of the period in which our one wish was to ste "action, and action now." We couldnt go on cheering forerer orer the fact that the national government had mtovered from an attack of paralysis. It got to be high ume for us to bring our critical faculties to life. This 1 bound to be a good thing for the admlnlstrsuon. No government can gin Its best If there is a complete and continued absence of critlcuzn. II its every act is hailed as a masterpiece of wisdom, it sooner w lster will get to be like an engine without a nywheeL Perhaps the best thing thst could hsve happened to the irooveiy program as a whole Is the fact that peopls now are ready to cpeak up In meeting the moment they see a flaw in ltv Wo are. after all. still a tiexnocracy and not a dictatorship. We want to stay that way. By sub)ectlng the lecorery program to crtticsl snalysts, we simply are proving that our democracy is continuing to function in the proper manner.

A MEASlBE OF AGE While ordinarily we measure age in terms of years, we knoi. that not evpry oiie is as oM or as young as his years. Science, however, has need for a measure of constitutional age. Some years ago there was coined the saying "A rran ts as old as his arteries.- There is much truth in this saying. KoTPever, the elasticity of the ar teries, or the displacement of plastic protoplasm by hard salt deposits, can not be mesisured with any degree of precision. Recently a new yard? tick has been developed. This is the lens of the human eye. The average human be ing on passing iniittlle ace develops what is technically known as pres byopia, that is farsightedness. Tais is recognized as a relative loss cf the ability to see printed matter or objects held close zo the eye. Par sirhtedriess oJ the aging Individual is accounted for by the toss of elaiticity :n the tissi of the leas. The degree of rigidity of the lens can be meairjred accurately Br sturiTlng the average decree of presbyopia developed in normal in diviuBis at rarious ere, a fitrure was arrived at which could be taken as standard. i Thus, an individual 40 years old; by tbe calendar, but with a pres- i byopia corresponding to the average j found among those 60 years of age, would be said to be anatomically ! older than his years, while a 60-year-old individual with the farsight of a 40-year-old man would be said to be young for bis years. Studies made on the histories of laree groups showed that in persons , in whom the presbyopia is less than i average, life expectancy is much ; greater than in those In whom pres ' byopia is above the average.
