FLO LEEDS PLEADS MOTHER LOVE FOR STILLMAN’S SON ‘Other Woman' Declares She Can Never Give Up Baby Jay, By FRANK H. GETTY (Copyright. 1923. by United Press) NEW CANAAN, Conn., June 2. "Little Jay has a mother. What he needs Is a father.” From the seclusion of a tiny Connecticut farm house, within the rambling, rambler-rose-strewn walls of which she sought the solitude she knew for two years, after the famous Stillman divorce case was launched, Florence Leeds today made this answer to the proposal of Mrs. Anne U. Stillman to take Jay and bring him up with Guy, "his half brother." "Never will I give up my boy,” Mrs. Leeds cried, when she read of Mrs. Stillman’s offer, which stipulated little Jay must separate definitely from his mother. “He is all I have to live for. It is fine and noble of Mrs. Stillman to suggest it—she take my Jay into her own family. But Ini hts mother. What he needs Is a | father—the father who has cut him I off without provision for his future,” j Obviously moved by Mrs. Stillman's | offer. In which she saw a safe fu- | ture for tho baby, who will soon be 5. j Mrs. Leeds drew her little son fiercely i to her and cried, tears streaming from | her eyes, she couldn’t make the sacj rifice and have him taken from her. While admitting a'l she sought was financial assistance to assure her child’s future education and upbringing, Mrs. Leeds exclaimed that she could not permit this. "I cannot surround Jay with the same things of this world he would have In Mrs. Stillman's home,” she said, "but I can give him the most precious thing of all—mother love.” “Jay may not thank me later for i having deprived him of all Mrs. Stillman has to offer. I realize with the a far different road stretches ahead for his sturdy little legs to tramp. His father has tried to slam the door of life on him. But I shall open It again.
