USED BULLET TO CUT OFF
DR.. CLICKSTEIN'S SPELL
Mrs. Charles 5. Raizen Of New York
Made Confession of Murder in
New York.

New York, Dec. l4.--PleadiIg eiail
years Of mental suffering as her j4;tii''
cation, Mrs. Charles S. Raizen today
faced arraignment in Brooklyn court
on charges of killing DIR. Abrans.n
Glickstein, aged AS years, in his office
last Saturday.
Surrendered to the police by lawyers
representing her father and husband
last night, Mrs. Raizen, who is 20 years
old and the wife Of toy manufactur-
er, to whom she was married last May,
told her story to District Attorney
Lewis.
With dry eyes and an air of self
control superior to that of any of her
auditors, she revealed the secrets Of 4
life which she said had been made
nearly unbearable by the physician
whose life she had ended with bullet.
She had known Glickstein, she sail,
most of her life. He was her family's
doctor in the lower east side Of Man
haitian where she, Lillian Schaffer, and
her parents, as well as Glickstoin,
lived. He had her trust, she told the
district attorney, and exercised a
strange but powerful influence over
.her--a sort Of magnetic influence, as
she described it.
Mrs Raizen said she struggled in
vain to break the hold the physician
had on her life. A year ago she thought
she had succeeded. The relationship,
which she said had always been
against her will, ended about a year
ago and she thought she was free.
he ,>f ba,s a t-rff r,
Raizen, she said, Glickstein renewed
his advances and attacked her in the
office where on Saturday, with the
memory of her injuries tormenting
her, she ended his life.
She escaped that time, she saii,
went ahead with her trousseau and in
May was married. On her honeymoon,
she said, she confessed all to her hus-
band and he tried to console her.
But TO forget, she went on, was inn
possible. The shadowed past became a
violent obsession that undermined her
health. Finally. on the advice of anotii-
er physician, she went to Florida, and
in Jacksonville, still unable to lind
peace, she bought pistol. Then she
came north, sought out the object cf
her fears, and shot him through the
heart.
Leaving the house in which Click
stein was dying, she took train to
called her father on the tel
epllone, and told him what she had
done.
The recital ended, Mrs. Raizen left
the district attorneys Office with two
policemen, who took her to police
station, where she was booked on
charge and where she spent
the night.
Before the arraignment, Aaron W.
Levy, one Of the two attorneys who
accompanied her to the prosecutors
office last night, indicated that the de-
Tense would be based upon the conten-
lion that she was mentally unbal |
anced.
The physician who advised the south
srn trip, DR. Samuel A. Tannenbanm, |
'ame to the defense Of his patient with !
he statement that her mentality was
not normal,
''Her act was undoubtedly that OF an |
insane woman" he said. Il had hoped |
he change of environment brought /
'bout by her trip to Florida would help
her, but apparently it did not

MANY ANIMALS DISEASED
State Commission Investigates 2,795
Cases i'm Two Years.

Des Moines, Iowa,--During the
biennial period ending June 80, 1920,
the Iowa state commission of animal
health was called upon to investigate
2,795 cases of animal disease, ac-
cording to the preliminary report of
the state veterinary surgeon.
OF these cases 1884 were animal
tuberculosis, the report shows. The
others were divided as follows:
Anthrax ~; blackleg 4 coital ex-
anthema 10; dourine (suspected) 2;
CHAMBERS 10; necrobacillosis 5; stom-
atitis 5; forage poisoning /; rabies
10; hemorrhagic septicemia 80; Texas
fever 2; and hog cholera Al.
Scabies has existed to a very small
extent in cattle during the past two
years, the report states. But sheep
Scabies is more or less prevalent at
all times. Attention is called to the
increasing popularity of the sheer
industry in the state. During the
biennium covered by the report there
were 7O7,723 head of sheep, an in.
crease of 691,072 over the previous
biennium.

pride of the ship and the service
create this atmosphere of unity,
which holds men together with bonds
stronger than either nationism or
sectarianiSm.
Chivalry cannot be the name of
foolhardy yet dauntless spirit that
makes men rush into a sure defeat
or a severe punishment to assist or
merely be a comrade with a ship
mate in trouble. II is not heroism
that prompts man to jump into an
almost sure death in heavy sea to
rescue or die with a shipmate, in fact
the man would likely feel amused
and probaly insulted to be called
hero.
1t is not philanthropy or generosi-
ty to give or lend the last needed
bit to a shipmate for a cause even
less worthy than that of the giver
and gratitude would neither be ex-
pected nor right-fully forthcoming.
Philanthrophy and generosity are
spoken of as fine points in human
nature along with their so often
misused sister, charity, but self-sac-
rifices of this kind are not inspired
by any such sentiment, they are the
ethics of shipmate-ism or. as that
word is not recognized either by
Webster or men-of-war, the spirit
of shipmates. Just what the senti-
ment could be named no civilian
could know and no sailor would give
the matter enough thought to coin
word embracing the diversity of
phases and the conglomeration of
motives.
The nearest thing one could find
outside the navy, which is homolog-
Gus, is possibly the idealistic, "Abou
Ben Adem" fellowship, which seems
confined to fiction, yet it falls far
short in intensity of purpose and the
extent of action. 1t is not fellowship
to endanger ones honor and liberty
by deliberate perjury in an attempt
to acquit a shipmate, well deserving
punishment and the answer to,
"Why?", would be, "He is my Ship
mate, and the tone of surprise that
any other motive or construction
could be placed upon the act.
The code of shipmates is the only
actual, practical and common bond,
which can overcome a grudge or a
lust for revenge. Today you see
sailor beaten, disfigured, insulted and
trodden upon and tomorrow you see
him rush into a fight and battle be-
side his prosecutor until he drops
and the thought, "He has wronged
me and this is his punishment and
my revenge, never enters his head.
The spirit or code of shipmates is
not immortalized in sonnets or es-
says or songs, but it is the strong
est and most unifying man to man
feeling that exists and for real re-
suits has placed the Damon and
Pythias' brand of friendship, which
has been held as exemplary since the
middle ages, far in the background.

"SHIPMATES"
Yours truly,
OTTO o. ARNESON.

The word implies much to a sailor
and little to one not a sailor. 1t is
not synonymous with friendship, be-
cause it is not an inter-person ALI
ance, but rather cosmopolitan, appli-
cable primarily to the personnel of
ship, but extending to the whole SER
vice. 1t is plastic, elastic. 1t calls
for much, and yet demands little. 1t
is neither virtuous nor ubiquitous and
though its operations are meritorious
almost in toto, they are based on
neither right nor wrong, cause nor
consequence, but disregard entirely
the legitimacy of the case. The ac-
lions are spontaneous and unpremedi-
tated, and the possible results effect
no character feature on the part of
the actor, with a probable exception
of curiosity or the spirit of adven-
ture. The essence of the fraternity
is an intoxicant with the tenacious
property of. an opiate, holding men
to the sea and making them dissat-
isfied with the puerile ethics of
/, friendship and the fallibility of the
fellowship, that is prevalent in ci-
william life. Being am intoxieant it
lessons the independence of action,
restricting it to an almost defined
course and strong combined effort,
an almost perfect teamwork is the
outcome.
The limits of the ship, the common
environments, the discipline and the
