RICE PERSECUTED,
 LAWYER DECLARES
Claims Slain Mans Daughter
 Knows Details of Murder

Hartford, March 20-That the state is prosecuting him with its tactics by refusing to make public letters and admit them IS evidence, and by refusing 10 go ahead with the inquest and report its results un- til after his trial, were statements made by Deputy Sheriff Trenor Rice, indicted for the murder Of Count Detective William t. Jackson Of Nilimantic
 In this, the first public statement made by Rice through his counsel he added that Juanita Jackson. 24, daughter Of the murdered man, knows all details or the murder. Her secret, 1t was declared, had been shared by Mrs. Merton Andrews, the daughters constant companion, who died in WjHiman,ic Monday night Both Juanlta and Mrs. Andrews wer" scheduled to be leading witnesses for the state at the Rice trial. which begins in WuImantic on Tuesday April 3.

 Relate Narrowing Tales

Aboard the s. S. Marques Comilla. March 20 {By Radio to the United Press )-The loss Of their compass at the height Of a terrific storm an1 an attack by teroCious, six-foot mon- sters of the sea, was described to- day by Captain John Juter Schu,- tervaer, who, with two companions was rescued by the s. 5. Marques Comi,la after they had been adrift for seven days without food or wa ter.
 The men were attempting to cross the Atlantic from Rotterdam to New ' ork in an open life boat. The cap- ta!n's companions were Dutch sail ors Cornelius Saan and Peter Mayer. Al three were in serials condition when the steamer picked them up in mld-ocean.
 They left Rotterdam on Nov. os, the captain said, sailing to London. Plymouth, CorUna and Lisbon. On inc Gulf CT Biscay they sailed into $ terrific storm which lasted eleven days They weathered this and set out for the Azores.
 A short distance out they rode into terrible storm from the mort n west, the captain said, which lastei l fourteen days. For four days they were compelled to fight the monsters that attacked their little craft which was only twenty-eight feet long and in danger Of capsizing. They de- tended themselves from the fish with q long knife.
 We injured them, but 1t was inn possible to kill them." the captain said. We went on but couldn't find the Azores because the storm .wept Us down to the southeast, of our course. We lost eighteen days at scl that way and all our food and fresh water. For seven days We had noth- ing o eat or drink.
 We saw many fish. but had no hooks to catch them Meanwhile We kept looking around for a pass ing vessel. Two days before We were saved We saw a large snip but il "as so far away from us that He couldn't signal il and she couldn't see our Morse light.
 Our hopes at last were realized when We saw this magnificent Span ish liner, which rescued us. We are very happy and are greatly oblige1 10 Captain Miranda and his crew for making our life most com fortable and agreeable"

One Nights Journey What Two Men Found
 Just Beyond the Wall.

Well, I see there's another community chest drive coming, April l." said Young Man Wise Guy.
 "Humph" grumbled old Man Crouch.
 l. was the evening session of the Rocking Chair Strategist Club Of New Britain. Young Man Wise Guy and Old Man Crouch had one thing m com mon. Each thought he was the only fellow In the universe who knew il all. Each therefore had nothing but contempt for the other follo~'s opinion.
 They differed radically in the application Of this all-pervading wisdom. Young. Man Wise Guy wanted to shout his knowledge to the world. Old Man Crouch wouldn't tell the time Of day cheerfullv. Both were infinitely selfish and denied it emphati- cally.
 "The trouble with these com- munity chest people is that they are always looking for money" and Young Man Wise Guy lit a cigarette he took from q silver case.
 'Bah. they make me tired Having and ranting about the -trodden poor, Let 'em go to work. and they won't need help" and Old Man Crouch reached for his pipe, refusing a proffered cigarette with a grunt.
 The trouble with you guys is. you've got bad case of chronic ingrowing egotistiocus" and q smiling stranger joined the group.
 You sit here in your easy chairs, having everything you desire until you get the idea that everything in this world is made for your own personal comfort. Tn your own narrow, selfish viewpoints. you draw the mantle of conceit about your shoulders. create unto your selves set of trite and stock alibis, and rest, complacent in your own ignorance, shouting your mistaken theories to wise men who smile and fools who applaud.

PLAN COLD LIGHT
 FEEDING 0N ASHES
Scientists Say It Would Burn
 Indefinitely
By HOWARD W. BLAkES FEE Associated Press Science Editor

Associated 1FeSS SCleAce Iuitoi
 New York, March 20 P-Scien- tifc steps necessary to develop light which will burn indefinitely, without heat, feeding on its own ashes, were described at meeting of the American Institute here last night.
 Living light" such as that from the f1re-hy," said Dr. E. Newton Harvey of Princeton university. is the basis from which this new type of illumination for human use may possibly be developed.
 Though the steps necessary for success are few. he said, they are among the most difficult in research, In all the 4o known groups of ami mals and the two groups of plants that glow. the cause never is phos phorus. as popularly believed, it is something more difficult to initiate,
 This "cold light" Dr. Harvey said. is combination of water, oxygen, luciferin and an enzyme While all four seem indispensa ble. luciferln appears as the princ!Nl ingredient. IL is one Of the proteins, which are nitrogenous substances that occur in profuse varieties in all living things. EnZymes are acti- vating agencies, dynamos, small in proportions but Of powerful effect. When luciferin is exposed to oXy gen, pr. Harvey explained. the two combine in a process called oxida ton, which produces light. The enzyme's part is to accelerate the oxidation. What the enzyme in this case may be is obscure, but the na ture or luciferin is better known. Chemically" said pr. Harvey "luciferin is probably to be placed among the simplest members of the proteins, the peptones or the pro- tesses. The question whether we shall ever be able to reproduce liv- ing light becomes the question whether we shall ever be able to synthesize proteins. Personally, ! We now synthesize fats, sugars and some of the polypepuds which are simple proteins. IL is only matter 1 of time for synthesis of the rnore complicated compounds of which | luciferin is member.
 When a fire-fly flashes, it oXy
 dizes the luciferin into oxy-luciferin. When it is resting in the dark be tween flashes, the oXy-lucferin is reduced back to luciferin and the fire-fy is ready for another flash Luciterin is recreated from it's own ashes.
 Tt Is possible 10 devise a lamp in which luciferin is burned con- tinuously, over and over again. In one region the luciferin is oXidized to lumne essence: in another is re- duced to luciferin again. To be sure,
 the light is weak and practical diff ! faculties appear in the poisoning Of
 necessary catalysts, but the princi- | pie remains. Perhaps we may look
 to an application ot this principle i for the future development Of new
 means of illumination

EDITH ALLEN hates her ex.
n husband, She treats him as
a, criminal
How did he dare become indif.
ferent to her after all the years
of devotion she had given him?
How did he dare give his love to
another woman? Only man ut
terly lacking in decency could do
such thing!
He promised he'd love me for
ever" she walls He lied to
me-he cheated me-it's the cruel.
est sort Of a, crime!"
Edith Allen truly thinks her
ex.husband is a criminal and the
majority of people will agree with
. her. But it ISN'T a crime to stop
loving. 1t may be both unwise
and tragic, but it isn't crime.
And, as a matter of fact, there's
very little we can do about 1T.
Love, like the wind, bloweth
where it listeth. We cannot
( force it. to come into our lives
nor can we force it to remain
in our lives.
ALL THE PROMISES IN THE
WORLD CAN'T BIND PEOPLE
TO LOVE FOREVER-NOR ARE
THEY CRIMINALS IF SUCH
PROMISES ARE BROKEN.
Our Indignation at vanished
love is rooted in our own selfish.
ness. We want to own. love. we
want to possess that other life
to bind it. to our service perpetu.
ally. When it refuses to stay
bound we feeltlike a slave owner
