HAY REALIZES ACT
AND BEGS TO DIE
Father Gains Strength and
Senses-Boy Better, But
Has Small Chance.

Although he is still in critical con-
dition and almost no hope is enter
tained for his recovery, there was a
slight change for the better this morn
ing in the condition of six-year-old
Kenneth Hay, who was assaulted Tues
day with Ratchet by his father, Harry
E. Hay, a clerk in the Treasury De-
partment. Physicians at Garfield Hos
pital said, however, that II the boy re-
covers he will be blind.
Hay, who cut his own throat and
wrist with a razor after chOpping his
sons head open, is gradually gaining
strength, and his recovery is expected.
DR.. F. Scott Avery, a brother-in-law
of Mrs. Hay. said today that Hays
mind had apparently cleared and that
he realized what he had done. He
pleaded with the doctors to let him die,
Dr. Avery said. Lest he should renew
the attempt TO kill himself, a policeman
is on constant guard at the bedside.
