Philadelphia, April 23. (,/P)—Man’s
chance to live 200 years was discussed
today at the opening of a three-day
session of the American Philosophical
Sodety here.
He may expect soon, it was assert
ed, to add 10 more years so that the
majority of us live to 70. Present uedi
cal science may later carry the aver
age to 90, but beyond ' that lies a bar
,i el ._ignorance.
The beginnings of a knowledge that
may lift even this barrier were de
scribed by Lee K. Frankel, second
vice president of the Metropolitan In
suranc-e Company.
“I am making a conservative state
I I ment," he said, “when I say that there
is no evidence at this moment that
human life may be prolonged beyond
its presumed biologic limits. All the
evidenee indicates that man, like oth
er animals, lives an allotted time. All
that has been done thus far has been
to save the wasteage of life at the
j younger ages.
“Yet j ^ we we must Jnusl remember lt , IllelIluel that umL man 1Ila „
