Newspaper Page TextFilm Premiered on Life, Work Of 'Jungle Doctor' Schweitzer By MARK BARRON NEW YORK, Jan. 20 un A documentary film on the works nd lite of the famous "jungle doctor," had It world premier in "Albert Schweitzer" at Broadway's Guild Theater today. Produced in color by Jerome Hill and Erica Anderson, it is a dynamic, extraordinarily moving story in which Dr. Schweitzer plays himself. Five years in' the makinii, the producers made six crtended trips to film the events around the hospital which the world-renowned physician has long operated in the hospital-village in Lnmbarene, French Equa torial Africa. Childhood Village They also brought Dr. Schweit zer back to his childhood villaEe 1 of Gunsbach. France, to make' part of the film. j Dr. Schweitzer, regarded as one of the world's greatest living nifn, has won world fame as a physi- cian, missionary, philosopher, the-1 ologian, biographer and organist. The son of an evangelical pas-i tor, he was born in 1R75, was a 1 preacher in Strasbourg's Church I of St. Nicholas at the age of 24 nd he devoted himself til preach-1 ing. teaching and music until he was 30. It was then he decided to study medicine and to further his plans for his "reverence for life" concept of philosophy, Fundamental Principle "Reverence for life affords me my fundamental principle of mo rality, namely, that good consists in maintaining, assisting and en hancing life," he explains in the film. "Destroying, harming or hindering life is evil." Mechanic Takes Plane, Crashes NEW YORK. Jan. 20 ii An airline mechanic took a two-en gine training plane from an Idle-' wild Airport hanger without au thority Saturday, took off and flew it 200 feet into the air, then! crashed to his death. j Tan American World Airways i tentatively identified the crash1 victim as Allen Adler, 20. ofi Brooklyn, a mechanic's helper who had been with the company about a year. The Pan American assistant operations manager, Willis Put nam, said the plane was a DC3. For aeven years after he was 30 he studied medicine while con tinuing his work as a preacher, teacher and church organist. It was during this time he wrote his now classic book on Bach and his music, one of the many books he has written. He also wrote a ma jor theological volume on "Paul and His Interpreters. , Started In 1913 On Good Friday of 1913, accom panied by his wife, Hclepe, and 78 cases of Medical supplies' he set out for French Equatorial Afri ca where he still is treating a steady stream of natives for lepro sy, fevers and many other serious diseases prevalent in that area. Since then he has seldom left the African junglr except to get more medical supplies and to give lectures and organ concerts to fi nance his jungle hospital. When he received the Nobel Peace Prize in 1952 he spent his entire $33,840 award in building more sanitary houses for the ail ing natives. This is a colorful, exciting film of a medical saint and Dr. Schweitzer plays himself with a moving humility. The film is nar rated by actors Frederic March and Burgess Meredith. Mercy Death Law Asked in New Jersey TRENTON. N. J.. Jan. 20 W-A law allowing painless mercy deaths for persons suffering in curable diseases has been asked from the New Jersey Legislature. A petition, circulated among state legislators here, calls for the legalization of euthanasia. It bears Lfhe names of 166 N.J. doctors. Some of the doctors, however, ex pressed surprise that they were supposed to have signed the pe tition. Early last year, a petition sim ilar to the present one was sent to members of the New York Leg islature over the names of 1.776 N.Y. doctors. Copies were mailed to members of the N.J. Medical Society who were asked to indi cate cither their support of the petition or their disapproval. Members of the Board of Trus tees of the N.J. Medical Society said the petition represents the private views of doctors. The hoard will issue a formal state ment here Monday, giving its of ficial views. It is expected the board will go on record against euthanasia leg islation according to board members. MR M aZJ jZl. jo ITl M-304 MVSI47.7?

Jan. 20 jTV-The jovernment of Yemen has decided against cancelling its treaties with Britain, the Yemenite minister to hgypt. Abu Rahman Abu Taleb, said, today. He said that because "Britain has violated the treaties by attack ing Yemen's territory" Yemen had the right to abrogate the 1934 and 1950 treaties fixing the border between Yemen and the Aden pro tectorate. "But we do not choose to do so, the minister told newsmen 'Yemen holds to her rights con tained in these two agreements and requests that Britain respect them as well aa the United Na tions Charter." Abu Taleb charged that British forces have penetrated 35 miles In side Yemenite territory. British officials deny their forces have crossed the frontier, saying they have been sent against Yemenite tribesmen invading the Aden protectorate.
