Patients Tell of Kindnesses
Of Dr. Hermann N. Sander
By ARTHUR EVERETT
Manchester, N. M., March 6 VP) "A good name is rather to be
chosen than riches."
That's what they wrote beside Dr. Hermann N. Sander s name in
his high school year book many years ago.
Now he is on trial for first degree murder in the alleged mercy
Slaying Ol one 01 ... ,w. - Vinrf.hparfi.rt man
They came today in a long1
parade the rich and the poor,
young and old, tall and short to
testify for Dr. Sanders to try
to prove the class prophecy was
true.
They were his patients, the
men and women of Manchester
to whom he gave a doctor's quiet
aid in a moment of great peril.
"We had 100 more begging for
a chance to take the stand," said
defense attorney Ralph E. Lang
dell. This is what these men and
women said and it sounded so
straight from the heart that it
brought tears to many an eye
in the courtroom:
High school headmaster Carl
P. James, Sr.:
"He always spent a great deal
of time, interest and sympathy
on his patients."
Insurance man Robert S. Per
kins: "He's got a heart like a bushel
basket."
John L. Conides, whose wife
Is an invalid:
a good physician.'
Grocer John Burke: "I think
he's a perfect geolvkan."
Helen Maiolek, his secretary,
who called and got Doctor San
der to treat her dying brother
although the physician had two
broken ribs at the time:
"He didn't pay very much at
tention to the money end of it."
Amos C. Lyford, his neighbor:
"We always put him on the top
of the list (in community fund
raising drives) because we al
ways were sure of getting a
large contribution."
Mrs. Helen Fitzpatrick, whose
baby Dr. Sander delivered:
"He asked us if we needed any
money."
Maud (CQ) Delancy:
"He's a doctor that you've got
awful lot of faith in. He's kind
and he's good."
Rita Parker, who had called
on and got aid from Dr. Sander
when the physician had a broken
leg of his own:
"If I am here today, I have Dr.
Sander to thank for it."
Mrs. Martha Henderson, who
labored In childbirth for 42 hours
with Dr. Sander by her side:
"Bills meant nothing to him.
His patients came first."
Mrs. Mildred Whalen, whose
husband was away in service
when she was stricken:
"If it hadn't been for Dr. San
der, I may not have been alive
today."
And Mrs. Frederick Preston,
who called Dr. Sander away from
his Christmas dinner to treat her
husband:
"He has never failed us. He
has seen us through some very
difficult times."
When the last one stepped
down. Somebody said to Dr. San
der: "Quite a fine tribute, doctor."
His throat was too tight for
words. His eyes said them for
him.

death at Oklahoma City. Carolyn was sleeping in her bed

Man's Suit in Russia Costs
About $277 in American Coin
Washington, March d.lfl State depeartment officials figure it
costs about $277 to buy a man'; suit in a Soviet store these days,
despite the price cuts Moscow announced Tuesday.
Last week the Russians (1) fixed a gold value for the ruble at
four to the American dollar; (2) cut prices on a wide range of
commodities. Only the percent-
ages of the price cuts were an
nounced abroad.
To find out what a dollar will
now buy in Moscow stores, state
department experts applied the
announced reductions to price
lists on file here. Some of the
results:
White bread, six rubles per
kilogram (2.2 pounds) or 681
cents a pound; black bread, 23
cents a pound; potatoes, 10 cents
a pound; sweet butter, $5 a
pound; rice, $1.67 a pound;
second grade beef, or soup meat,
$2.40 a pound; pork, $4.00 a
pound; chicken, $3.04 a pound;
sausage, $3.65 a pound; milk,
38 cents a quart.
On other commodities, the rate
of one dollar to four rubles
figures out this way:
Man's , suit, $277.25; man's
shoes, $85; woman's suit, $128.
75; woman's dress, $111; silk
stockings, $8; woman's shoes,
$87.50; table model radio, $272;
package of 25 cigarettes, Kas-
bek brand, $1.08; Soviet-made
portable typewriter, $249.50;
wrist watch, $100.
By American official calcula
tions, Soviet wages average
something less than 600 rubles
$150 a month
Russia has decreed a series of
price cuts in the past year or so.
In September, 1946, when ra
tioning was abolished, the price
level was raised so that officials
here figure that the current gen-
