The remarkable progress in increasing life expectancy is due to
marked decrease in the infant mortality rate. But the expectancy for a
person of fifty, for instance, is about the same as it was a century ago.
That means that science has been able to do practically nothing about

EW YORK. — Possibly better

would be “square-rigger” days as
a phrase of poignant retrospect.

of the Newport getaway of the Con­
rad and the Seven Seas—the only
seaworthy square-riggers left in
America—on their recent race to
Bermuda. Both boats have Diesel
engines, for emergencies, but they
stow all that, and it is perhaps a
bit tactless to bring it up now. This
is a machine age holiday.
With all its shortcomings, the
power age does enable some people
to make enough money to get away
from It once in a while. Young G.
Huntington Hartford, owner of the
Conrad, is the inheritor of a $200,-
000,000 chain-store fortune. That's
a good beginning for anyone who
wants to voyage back into past ep­
ochs—whether his taste is for old
houses, old prints, old ships, or even
a horse and buggy. Simplicity
comes high. Mr. Hartford spent
$75,000 getting the Conrad in racing
trim.
One doesn’t think of a demon
squash player as a sailing man, but
Mr. Hartford was a squash racquets
wizard in his undergraduate days at
Harvard, in the class of 1933. He
is the only son of Mrs. Henrietta G.
Hartford, of Newport and Charles­
ton, getting about a lot, having a
wonderful time and probably not i
"wishing you were here.”
He takes a hand in all sorts of
sports, and probably stirs more
envy with this

many an old gaffer dreaming he is
out on the yardarm in a gale, and
that—according to the Prophet Joel
—is as it should be, providing the
young men keep up with their vi­
sions.
Mr. Hartford bought the Conrad
from Capt. Alan Villiers, Australian
book sailor who sailed her all over
the world in his lite, ary argosy. She
had settled down in the valhalla of
old ships at Brooklyn when Mr.
Hartford brought her to life again.
The ship was built more than 50
years ago by the Danish govern­
ment, which later used her as a
training ship. Her proper name is
the Georg Stage. She’s a proud,
staunch old ship, with two full suits
of sails, decks of teak and two brass
cannon on the poop deck. She is
100 feet 8 inches on the waterline.

the army, of aristocratic feudal
background, and his new ascendan­
cy is interpreted by some observ­
ers as an indication of the increas­
ing dominance of his allied groups,
as against the newcomers who head
the Nazi party.
He stems from pre-war Germany,
a hefty, ruddy, stag-hunting aristo­
crat, of an ancient Wuerttemberg
dynasty, with slicked gray hair and
close-cropped gray mustache. He
was a student of law, entering the
consular service in 1900. Serving in
many foreign capitals, he was am­
bassador to Rome from 1922 to 1930,
and formed a warm friendship with
Mussolini, whom he characterized
as the ideal ruler.

just what he can

quite clear—there are no rules to

any rate, he's riding herd on our
ships and doing the best he can.
In the Boxer uprising, at the turn
of the century, he was an ensign
on the U. S. S. Yorktown. As Amer­
ica pursued her “manifest destiny,”
he hasn't missed any of the major
excitements since then. Previously
he had been in the Spanish-Ameri-
can war and the Philippine insur-
rection. He helped occupy Vera
Cruz and he was an aide on the
staff of Admiral Hugh Rodman
when our ships were serving with
the British grand fleet in the World
war. He rose in the navy through
his mastery of engineering tech-
niques.
