New York. Feb. :s N-A neigh bor of Mra Emeline O. Harrington the actress for whose murder Fred erick w. Edel was indicted. testified today at Edel's trial in general ses- sions court, that on the morning cf December .s. 1927. she heard Mrs Harrington scream in her apart ment.
 The witness. Mrs. Lillian Holton. said:
 Il lived on the fourth floor of the building and Mrs. Harrington apartment was directly above me. didn't know her. heard her scream in the bathroom of her apartment and l rushed upstairs and rang the bell called her by name ana there was no answer. heard some- one come near the door. asked what was the trouble and told who l was. l received no answer. went back to my apartment and for about half an hour l heard someone walk ing through her apartment.

CANNED FRUITS
 AND TIMETABLES
Full of Vitamins, Should Be Eaten Daily, Says Doctor

Dr. Morris Fishbein, Editor of the Journal of the American Medi- cal Association, recently wrote in the New York Telegram about canned fruits and vegetables. If all of the women could read this article, more canning factories would have to be built in a hurry.
 He makes this startling state ment: Canned tomatoes, and canned spinach have been tested three years after canning and the evidence did not indicate any ap- preciable loss in vitamins. Indeed, the canned tomatoes after three years were as rich in vitamins as raw tomatoes. Canned strawberries were also found to equal raw straw bsrr'es in vitamin content" He de- scr es how canned cabbage, peas. spin lch, apples and peaches were s.loy to be rich in Vitamin C.
 Just think what wonderful news this is for all of us in this country where canning has been developed to such . point of perfection that we can buy canned almost any fruit or veg etable that is grown.
 Serve your family literally with canned fruits for breakfast and for dessert, and serve them liberally with canned vegetables and fruits for luncheon and dinner. Canned peaches, apricots, apples, pears, or strawberries are delicious served with sreals for breakfast and with lice cream for dessert. There is health in delicious canned fruits kand vegetables. Sweeten the vege. tables te taste when preparing them 1se serving. The Sugar Institute.

Snowfall in London
 Prevents Procession

London, Feb. 26 Hp-A snowfall this morning brought disappoint- ment to Londoners who had hoped to see the Prince of Wales drive in state from Buckingham palace to St. James palace to hold the sea- sons first levee on behalf of King George.
 Because of the bad weather the state procession was cancelled and the prince merely walkd over the short distance from his residence in York house wearing his brilliant scarlet uniform as colonel of the Welsh guard. He was escorted by members of his staff and household officials in glittering uniforms.
 The scene inside the palace was brilliant. There was . large at- tendance of privileged personages besides the diplomatic corps who were received by the prince in the throne room with all the customary ceremony surrounding the state function. It was the first time the prince had ever acted for his father at . levee.

State Board of 6t Directors
 Unanimous in Opposition

Hartford. Feb. 26. (UP)-Legisla- ton making possible construction of 3s5.000.o00 toll express highway

 Connecticut Chamber of Commerce. After the chambers board of 61
 directors had heard speakers outlin-

 view on the unique project, they voted unanimously against giving the measure their support.

 chief opposing speakers in the chambers forum yesterday
 Former Highway Commissioner Charles J. Bennett, engineer for Pope and Richardson. New York, packers of the project, was ques- tioned.
 The road, he explained, would eX-
 tend very nearly in a straight line from the New York state line to the
 Massachusetts line, enabling New
 York Boston traffic to speed across the state without traffic delay. No Grade Crossings There would be no grade cross
 ings, all railroads or other highways
 being crossed on huge concrete bridges. Although the financial setup" is uncertain at this time, Ben-
 nett said. the toll charge per vehicle would be about $4 or s5.
 He stressed that unless a drastic condemnation law were passed, the
