    Film 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.

Yemen fn Rnf im Trnft Wifk i
- - -... iwmi T T a a a a! Iliair
CAIRO, ET)t. 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.
