SLAYER'S ACQUITTAL AROUSES ENGLAND Freeing of Man Who Drowned In-: fant to Prevent Future Suffer- ing Widely Discussed. By the Associated Press. LONDON, October 24.—All England had been plunged into discussion of “the right to kill” as a result of the acquittal Saturday of a young widow- er, Albert Davis, of a charge of mur- der for drowning his 3-year-old daugh- ter to save her further terrible suffer- ing from an incurable disease. Most of the newspapers applaud the acquittal, but insist that the case is exceptional and that there should be no loosening of the laws protecting human life. On the other hand the Daily Ex- press quotes Conan Doyle, famous au- thor and himself a physician, as saying: “I think that if there were a law that three medical certificates would justify the putting away of a person who is in a hopeless position as re- gards life and death, it would be a very great improvement. It would only be humanity and common sense.” The analogy drawn by Justice Bran- son between the child in the present case and a suffering animal has re- ceived considerable adverse criticis Justice Branson said: “It is a matte which gives food for thought when one considers that had this poor child heen an animal instead of a human being, 8o far from there being any thing blameworthy in this man's a tion in putting an end to the child’s suffering, he would actually have been liable to punishment had he not done {t."” Discussing this analogy, The Eve- ning Star says it is not a sound argu- ment for giving man the same license in_respect to human beings. The Daijly News declares: “To sug- gest that the action of drowning a child is the same as giving a dose of weed killer to a sick dog i to strike at the very roots of a belief in the sanctity of human life. 2 Medals Mean Much.
