Disapproval of- public health bill introduced in the Senate recently by Senator Morris Sheppard. of Texas, was voiced by H. B. Anderson, of the American Medical Liberty league, before the Committee of Public Health and National Quarantine of the Senate yesterday. Anderson declared the proposed bill was objectionable in that the Federal government can not afford to take sides in medical controversies as it would be forced to do in carrying out the provisions of the proposed act. Senator Sheppard s bill provides "for the public protection of maternity and infancy and providing a method of co-operation between the government of the United States and the several States." ANNE MARTIN SAYSU. S. NEGLECTS MATERNITY "The United States occupies the ; I shocking position of being perhaps; [the most backward 'civilized' coun- ' try in the world in its. neglect of! matern.ty and infancy."

Wallace Kepdirck. a chauffeur, testified that Cockrell confessed to him to killing his wife on the morn* ing of July 1, but stated that he believed him to have been in an intoxi(ated condition. Robert Godfrey also testified Policeman Michael Cefferait', of the Ninth precinct, was called upon once to quiet Cockrell after the latter be! came violent. On thfs occasion, the ? witness said. Cockrell tore down the | window shades. Cefferait was a roomer in the house at the time. ! Gcc'frey also swore that he heard I numerous threats of Cockrell to kill i Pearl. Mrs. O'Donnell said that Cockrell I "looked do\cr" upon his wife and considered her "beneatn him." She also admitted Cockrell and Nolan had been good friends. Attorney Sacks made the opening statement for the defense, which he claimed would be insanity. Mr8. Cora Cockrell. mother of the accused man, was the first defense v. itness called. She related incidents in the baby lioou^ and childhood days of Cockrell. ; Ever since Cockrells birth, his mother declared, he has suffered from melancholia, as did his father. She told of numerous threats to commit suicide by the elder Cockrell, The mother also reluctantly admitted she knew her "husband to be insane before she married him. The mother stated, when she visited her son after his alleged crime, | neither of them discussed the affair and never did at any time. As far as she could tell. Mrs. Cockrell stated. Philip Shirley Cockrell was a duplicate of his father in regard to moods of depression. The defense will call upon three alienists to prove that Cockrell is insane. They are Dr. William A. White, superintendent of St. Elisabeth's Hospital. Dr. J. M. Larhl and Dr. John E. iJttod, of St. Elizabeth's. The prosecution will introduce but two alienists to prove that Cockrell is sane. They are: Dr. Percy V. Hlckling, the District alienist, and Dr. Cornelius De Weese, of the Laurel, Md.. sanatarium.
