By the Assoclated Press SAN FRANCISCO, Calif., April 4.— Dorothy Ellingson, 17-year-old slayer of her mother, Mra. Anne Ellingson. was able to sing at her routine dutles as an inmate of the caunty jail to- day while lawvers and experts were busy preparing for a resumption of | the trial to determine the question of her sanity on Monday. The two days of rest from the or- deal of the crowded courtroom is ex- pected to be particularly beneficial to the girl, who Insists herself that she is perfectly sane while her own at- torneys are endeavoring to prove that she is not, in order to avold the neces- sity of 2 murder trial. The Insanity hearing to date has been a battle of alienists, who for weeks have been given individual op- portunities to observe the conduct and habits of the defendant. with Flat | THE SUNDAY STAR, WASHING' DRIVE TO SAVE DOGWOOD TREES FROM EXTERMINATION PLANNED Lok, - o e il Posters Will Present Plea to Public.

In order to carry on the protec- ion which was thrown about flower- ng dogwood In the vielnity of Wash- ngton by an intensive campaign last 3pring, another drive, of less scope P8, but of equal earnestness, will launched this yegr by the Wild | Flower Preservation Soclety and the National Capltal nittee of the Garden Club of Ameri f the public will continue to re- spond to the appeals of preservation of the dogwood, president of the Wild l‘ruuar Preser- vation Soclety. yesterday ““there will be little danger of the future exter- mination of this beautiful flowering tree. | to last year was such, however, there was neo question but that it would have been a matter of the practical extermination of dogwood here within a few years." | | | | | that Trees Grow Slowly. The campaign this Spring will be largely one of education of the pub- ic through various means. The re- sponse last vear to appeals for preser. vatlon of the dogwood did not result in any appreciable increase in the amount of the bloom in prospect for this year over last, as the trees grow slowly. according to Mr. Ricker. But there is no doubt, he explained, that | on account of the public support to the appeal last Spring there will be much | more bloom this year than could have been expected had the destruction con- | tinued. The campaign will be carried on jointly by the Wild Flower Preser- vation fimlolv and the National Capital committee of the Garden Club of America, of which Mrs. Frank B. Noves Is chairman. Extensive work will he done in the achools.

A new feature to be Introduced | this season for the first time will be a dogwood coat lapel button, of at- | tractive design, thousands of which have been ordered from the manu- facturer. The campaign conducted in Wash- ington Jast year has not only brought results in this vielnity, but has con. tinued to carry its m. lage into many carners of the country, according to Mr. Ricker, who during the past year was elected president of the national body of the Wild Flower Preserva- tion Society. ;In this capacity, and as secretary of the Washington Soclety. Mr. Ricker has been appealed to by nature lovers in many States to co- operate in carrying on campaigns of 4 similar nature. Three copies of a motion pleture reel, which was taken here last year, deplcting the destruction of dogwood in a beautiful grove, are now in use already in early campaigns, in Oregon, New York State and North Carolina, Posters and pictures emploved here last year have been scattered from The progress of destruction up | coust to cougt to persons inturested in the same ‘causes. ear may not be expected to open for some little time. to Mr. Ricker, who said the buds were just begin- ning to swell on trees in the vicinity | of Washington.

OFFICIAL PAPER STARTED BY FEDERAL PROSECUTOR Editorial in First Issue Says Every Defendant Must Get Fair Trial. By the Associated Press NEW YORK, April 4.—Federal Dis- trict Attorney Buckner today started a weekly office newspaper which he calls *Seraj for free distribution among Federal Building employes. Its purpose is to stimulate morale, foster a spirit of comradeship and give in- formation of office and departmental activities and policies. Mr. Buckner states in the new paper that no cases should be taken into his office unleas thers is a rea- sonable chance for conviction. An edi- | Chicago Court to Hear Case Once torial entitled “Fair Play"” assured every defendant, whether a first o fender or a hardened criminal, of a fair trial. “The only question” the editorlal is, Did the defendant commit | crime charged in the indictment? | “When atmosphere is created, when subtle efforts are emploved to arou prejudice, when resort is had to the- atrical methods and the stage is set to impress the jury, then our boast as a liberty loving people that here the high and low, rich and poor, are accorded the same fair, impartial treatment in our courts of justice b said, comes a mockery and a sham.” Lifetime Furniture- Is More No Wonder the Youngsters Have Rosy Cheeks Left» over Tray at No Extra Cost A convenient tray with 10 eonserve space in your It's yours at no extra cast with @ Leoward Cleanable Re- Clesnsble. frigerator. , And they always will have as‘long as tliey/ keep running to mother’s Leconard Cleanable bRcfrig~ erator for sweet milk and other nourishing foods, cooled to the taste by Leonard’s cold, dry air circu- lation.
