By the Associated Press. MOSCOW, October 2.—Charged with responsibility for the death of a 5-day-old infant, killed by ra foscow’s hospitals, Isa Swurety” D Mortgages Guaranteed by an Outstanding Surety Co. Baron, prominent woman physician, who made a distinguished war record, was sentenced to two years’ im- prisonment today. Two nurses at- tached to the bables’ ward of the hos- pital were sentenced to 18 months each. Victoria Zeitlin, the woman prose- cutor, who handled the case for the government, demanded a maximum penalty of 10 years for the defendants. Dr. Baron's defense against a spe- cific charge of failing to render first ald to the infant was that the child was so mutilated by the rats that it was doomed to die because of its ter- rible wounds. Moreover, she said, shy was about to begin a serlous opera tion on a woman patient when the in. fant's case was called to her atten. tion. .
