TENSE DRAMA TO UNFOLD IN MURDER TRIAL Father May Bare Daughter's Life to Save Son from Electric Chair. BY PAUL COMLY FRENCH, United Pres* SUIT Correspondent NORRISTOWN. Pa.. Jan. 22. Whether a father has the right to bare his daughter's life to save his son from tho electric chair, will figure prominently in the murder trial of Edward H. B. Allen, 24-year-old society turfman. The young social registerite is charged with the slaying of Francis A. Donaldson 111, who, the boy’s father, Horace Allen, charges, betrayed Edward’s 19-year-old debutante sister. Rose. Allen, now held in the Montgomery chunty jail on a charge of first degree murder, probably will be taken before the grand jury next Monday. District Attorney Stewart Nase said if Allen is indicted, he probably will be placed on trial early in February. Shooting Followed Quarrel The fatal shooting in the Allen’s fashionable Green Hill Farms apartment on Nov. 9 climaxed a series of quarrels over Donaldson’s attention to the Allen girl. The Allens have been prominent in Philadelphia society for many years, while the Donaldsons are comparatively newcomers to the social register, being listed during the last five years. With the publication of the 1932 editon of Philadelphia’s Blue Book, however, the Allens were dropped while the Donaldsons still were listed. As lower Merion township authorities reconstruct the shooting in the apartment, Donaldson had gone to discuss his attentions to Rose with her father. Fired Pointblank, Charge An argument followed and Edward was knocked down by Donaldson. Edward left the apartment, police said, drove five miles to a friend’s home in Devon and obtained his rifle. Returning to the apartment, detective officials : id, he found Donaldson and Albert G. Lucas, a friend, still arguing with his father. Without a word he fired, the shot striking Donaldson in the chest, police charge. Former State Senator Fletcher W. Stites, who actively will handle the defense case, is believed to be planning a defense on the basis that Donaldson forced his way into the apartment and failed to leave when requested and on emotional insanity. Girl Visits Brother John R. K. Scott, best known Philadelphia criminal attorney, and an old friend of the Allen family, is in charge of the defense. Stites, however, as a resident of Montgomery county, vvill be in charge during the trial. Shortly after thp slaying, Rose said that she never would forgive her brother, or her father, for her sweetheart’s death. Later she visited Edward in the Montgomery county jail with her father, but refused to pose with him for pictures, despite his willingness. For several weeks after the murder, Rose and her father lived with Henry G. Pierce, wealthy friends in Haverford, but recently took a small apartment in Merion.

Hmjhy Children Mow to Provide Proper Food and Care at a Minimum Cost.

Thli I* the leeontl of a aeries of six rfailT article* on tho orooer esre and nutrition of children, published hr this newspaper In eo-oneration with the American Child Health Association. The present depression and unemployment has made thia a rrave problem In mane families where a dollar must go further now than ever before. BY DR. MORRTs FISHBEIX Editor Journal of American Medical Association Written Esoeciallv for NEA Service and The Times. SAFEGUARDING the nutrition of children is fundamental to the future of the nation, especially in this era of depression and unemployment. During the World war when hunger blockades threatened foreign nations, children developed all sorts of disease conditions due to the lack of proper food. Today the United States is not faced with any actual shortage of food, but with the fact that unemployment and the resulting poverty means that many children will not be able to get the food that they require for proper growth and develj opment. Undernourishment inevitably is I associated with disease. The rates for tuberculosis rise rapidly when ! the amount and the quality of food is insufficient. Pellagra is primarily a food deficiency disease. Children who are undernourished easily develop respiratory diseases and the acute infections of childhood. Moreover, they are especially threatened with deficiencies of development that are shown in rickets and in caries of the teeth. a a a jV/COST people will feel that the ITJ - proper way of handling the emergency is to begin at once the feeding of vast numbers of children from soup kitchens or bread lines such as are provided for the unemployed in our large cities. However, the President’s organization on unemployment relief has realized the danger to our social structure that lies in such an attempt at feeding and has recommended, instead, that children of needy families be provided with proper food in their homes. In many cities newspapers are carrying on campaigns to provide school lunches for children, particularly in the poorer districts. It is important that the school lunch be supplied not only to feed the child but also to educate it as to what are necessary and valuable food substances. It tt a , WHEN food is to be supplied, particularly to needy children, it should be given to them in their homes as well as at school, so that the rest of the family also may be

fed. It is realized that the feeding of school children in groups leads to neglect of the pre-school child and to neglect of the mother during the prenatal and nursing period. No doubt, the first six months of life constitute one of the most important periods for adequate feeding. ‘a a a FOR every child, every day, at least one pint of milk, two teaspoonfuls of cod liver oil (particularly if he is less than two years old), one vegetable or fruit, and plenty of bread, cereals and other emergency foods should be provided. Such a diet is not perfection—it is irreducible minimum. Experts have estimated that the feeding of : a family of five with the irreducible ! minimum will require from $7.50 to ; $lO a week. At this time more than ever peoi pie require sound education and I good judgment in the selection of j food. It is a service in which everyone must co-operate if the future I of the country, and particularly the ! prevention of epidemics of disease, | is to be assured. tt tt a EACH child should have from one pint to one quart of milk each day to drink and to be added in cooking. It should have one or more items from a list including bread, cereals, rice and macaroni. It should have generous helpings of two or three vegetables, including lettuce, spinach or other leafy vegetables, and tomato or orange and some other fruit daily. It should have at least one egg a day for three or four days a week; meat once each day, and occasionally fish, cheese, dried beans, peas or lentils. For maximum growth, it should also have some cream, butter, oleomargarine, nut butter, bacon or other fat, and a little cod liver oil daily. It is necessary to economize in purchasing. At such a time it is well to bear in mind the thrift suggestions contributed by the American Child Health Association. Next Oliver Roberts Barton makes practical suggestions as to the care of children in times of stringency.
