S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia, in an important opinion today, widely broadened the means through which a defendant might be found not guilty by reason of insanity. The ruling declared that judges and juries should take into consideration any mental abnormality present at the time of the crime and that if these conditions are reasonably be lieved to have produced the crime, a verdict of not guilty should be returned. Until today’s ruling, there were only two tests applying to pleas of not guilty by reason of insanity: 1. That the defendant was unable to distinguish right from wrong at the time of the crime 2. That he was acting under an irresistible impulse. Right-Wronr Test Hit. The court declared today: “We find that as an exclusive criterion, the right-wrong test is inadequate in that (a) it dees not take sufficient count of psychic realities and scientific i —-———■ «■ National Law School, Foundetfin 1869, lo Merge With GWU Agreement' Will Protect Credits and Degrees of Students in Transfer National University Law School will be merged with George Washington University, it was announced today. Students in good standing at National will be received as stu dents at GW. National has about 150 students. National University Law School has been a Washington institu tion for 85 years and has a num ber of distinguished alumni. It is at 1225 New York avenue N.W. The university formerly had a junior copege and a school of government, but these were dis posed of some time ago. It has had a loose affiliation with the Washington School of Psychiatry. The agreement between the two institutions provides that Na tional University will convey all of its assets, including real estate, its library and other equipment to GW. George Washington, in turn, will assume all obligations of National. To Save Law Library. The National law library is to be preserved as part of the law library of GWU. Other assets are to be sold and any surplus is to be held by GWU as an endow ment fund to be known as the National University Library Fund. The merger announcement said there would be no inter ruption in the work of National University students, including credit for work performed at National at both undergraduate and graduate levels. Those students who have baccalaureate degrees and 28 or more semes ter hours of work remaining will have the option of qualifying for either a National University or a George Washington degree. Other students shall continue as candidates for National Uni versity degrees. Scholarship student at ‘ Na tional will continue to enjoy scholarships at GWU. Fraternal organizations at National will be recognized on the campus at GW. National alumni will be accorded by GW the rights and privileges enjoyed by its own alumni, including the main tenance of their academic rec ords. Some Personnel to Join GW. Certain faculty members and other personnel of National will be employed by GWU. In a letter to students of Na tional, Dean Orville H. Walburn said the action to turn the school over to GW was taken in the “best interest of students and alumni of National Uni-' versity.” Dean Walburn said he is not ready to disclose what he will do in the future. Dr. Rowland F. Kirks resigned the presidency of the National U. Law School last June 7 to become legislative counsel of the National Automobile Dealers Association. The school has 12 trustees.

We find that the ‘irresistible impulse’ test is also inadequate in that it gives no recognition to mental illness characterized by brooding and reflection and so relegates acts caused by such illness, to the application of the inadequate right-wrong test. We conclude that a broader test should be adopted.” At another point, the court declared that juries in determin ing the facts “will be guided by wider horizons of knowledge con cerning mental life. The question will be simply whether the ac cused acted because of a mental disorder and not whether he displayed particular symptoms which medical science has long recognized do not necessarily, or even typically, accompany evpn the most serious mental disorder . . . Our traditions also require that where such acts stem from and are the product of a mental disease or defect... moral blame should not attach and hence (See INSANITY, Page A-4.) House Advocates Os High Farm Props Win Major Test Beat Plan to Remove Peanuts From List of Crops Under 90% Parity BULLETIN House forces favoring con tinued high farm price sup ports won a major test today by defeating, 159 to 121, a pro posal to remove peanuts from the basic crops covered by the 90 per cent of parity provision. The result was regarded as an important setback for Presi dent Eisenhower’s request for flexible farm price supports. By Robert K. Walsh House opponents of President Eisenhower’s plea for flexible ag ricultural price supports fought today against an amendment they said would “divide and con quer” the farm forces. The first direct test of strength developed on a proposal to re move peanuts from the six basic crops currently covered by price supports at 90 ,per cent of parity. The bill on which the House began section-by-section voting today would continue for an other year the present high sup ports on wheat, cotton, com, rice, tobacco and peanuts. The administration urges a flexible program of price supports based on a sliding scale from 75 to 90 per cent of parity at the discre tion of the Secretary of Agri culture. Compromise Sought. House Republican leaders strove to work out a compro mise. They planned to offer an amendment late todfay setting the figure at about 83 per cent of parity. A final vote on the bill itself seemed unlikely to come before tomorrow because of the large number of amend ment proposals due for debate today. The first test came when Rep resentative Vursell, Republican, of Illinois moved to amend the bill by removing peanuts from the list of specified basic crops.

He is strongly in favor of de segregation. But, he told the 92d annual convention of the National Edu cation Association last night, he thinks it can sometimes be car ried too far. He related how he had been invited to speak at the Univer sity of Arkansas. After receiving assurances that the Fayetteville audience would not be segre gated, he accepted. Afterward, he said, the man in charge saw him to his train and sheepishly confessed: "You know, when you wrote French Quilting Huge Section Os Key Delta End of 8-Year Fight In Indo-China Seen; Dunkerque Feared By Larry Allen Auociatod Pra*.

Withdrawing to Lifeline. The French Union forces were generally withdrawing to their last lone lifeline—the railway and highway Unking the war capital of Hanoi with the sea port of Haiphong, 84 miles to the east. An Indo-China Dunkerque may crane soon at the end of this road—“the most dangerous road in the world.” Haiphong is France’s last beachhead in Northern Viet Nam. It is from there that they will have to make the attempt to evacuate tens of thousands of troops, whether as a result of a cease Are or after fighting their way through from Hanoi. The French command today announced they were pulling out of such important and heavily populated centers as Phat Diem, Thai Binh, Nam Dinh and Ninh Binh, all within 55 to 75 miles south and southeast of Hanoi. Mfllions Left to Reds. That automatically meant an area embracing thousands of vil lages peopled by around 4 mil lion Viet Namese were dropping into the hands of the troops of Viet Minh Gen. Vo Nguyen Giap. It also meant that while these millions were being abandoned to communism, the French soon would be shakily controUing only the lifeline between Hanoi and Haiphong and a strip of territory in Northeastern Indo-China in cluding the town of Moncay on the Chinese border. That, too, however, may scon be given up as the French con centrate all their defensive power in the do-or-die sector between Hanoi and Haiphong. Barring a cease-fire, the Viet Minh are expected quickly to hit the lifeline with a massive human sea attack that could crush the French Union forces. Civil Uprising Possible. There is also danger of a pos sible civil uprising as the Viet Minh sweep into thousands of the approximately 5,500 villages where 7 million Viet Names** live. Throughout the war the sym pathies of these Viet Namese rice growers have been with the troops of Moscow-trained Ho Chi Minh and not with the French or the budding Viet Namese na tional army.

Mrs. Roosevelt Cancels Visit, Hits Soviets By tha Astociatad Frau NEW YORK, July I.—Within hours of scheduled departure time, Mrs. Franklin D. Roosevelt today canceled plans for a trip to Russia because Soviet officials had withheld a visa for a trained newsman or Russian-speaking writer to accompany her. At a news conference in the office of Look Magazine for which she was to make the trip to write of her observations, the widow of the former President suggested perhaps the Soviet Union was trying to force her to go on its terms or "mistrusted’’ her. Or. she said, it might be just ineffi ciency. In any event, she said this month was the only time she had available for the month long trip, so she was canceling her plans. She was scheduled to leave at 4 pm. Mrs. Roosevelt said: "I feel that the Soviet officials, in not granting a visa for a reporter to accompany me, are trying to force me to go to the Soviet Union' on their trams, and are. in a minor way, treat ing me the same way they try to treat our Government and our allies at Geneva.” Mrs. Roosevelt said Soviet of ficials here told her they had not heard from Moscow. This “might just be ineffi ciency.” she said, but added : “I suppose we shouldn’t be too critical as we don’t grant visas sometime* to people we mistrust, and perhaps they mis trust me somewhat. We must remember there is always some delay here in granting visas when we don’t completely trust o people.” Where Is Senator McCarthy? Short Rest Enters 13th Day Vacation at Undisclosed Site Delays Committee Action and Staff Showdown By James Y. Newton Where is Senator McCarthy? The continued absence from the Capitol of the Wisconsin Re publican had become a real mys tery today—a mystery to Sena tors who wish to take up with him some important committee business, and apparently, also to she Senator’s oWfi aides. Never, so far as' could be learned, since he was first elected in 1946, had the normally übiq uitous junior Senator from Wis consin disappeared* for so long or so completely. It was June 18, the day fol lowing the close of the Army- McCarthy Inquiry, that the Sen ator uttered his last recorded words—a blast at what he called Democratic “smears” of members of the staff of his Senate In vestigations Subcommittee. Then he left for a “rest” and oblivion. Secretary Seems Puzzled. At first it was to be a three day vacation, then a week. Last Monday, Mrs. Mary Driscoll, the Senator’s secretary, said she ex pected him later in the day Every day since it has been late that day or surely the next. Last night a reporter asked Mrs. Driscoll if she expected Senator McCarthy back “tomorrow.” “That has become sort of rou tine now. hasn’t it?” she asked “All I can do is give you the same answer as last night.” Where is Senator McCarthy? His friend Walter WincheU, the columnist, reported him on an island in the Gulf of Mexico. People close to the Senator here said he was on a ranch in Mex ico. A Washingtonian said Sena tor McCarthy might be right un der the noses of fellow Senators and other searchras at the ex clusive Tides Inn at Irvington, Va. He said he was at the desk at the inn a couple of weeks ago when a telegram arrived re questing a reservation for the Senator and Mrs. McCarthy. But inquiry at the inn brought a negative answer. Some friends, as much in the dark as his whereabouts as every one else, expressed fear the Senator may be ill. They said. he was “completely worn out" at the end of the 36-day Army-McCarthy hearing. The only agreement is that the Senator “went that-a-way” and has not been seen since. Senator Mundt, Republican, of South Dakota, • remarked that surely the Senator would return for the important Senate tax votes yesterday. But he didn’t. Mundt Wants Meeting, Senator Mundt wrote Senator McCarthy that he and colleagues would like him to call a meeting promptly of the Permanent In vestigations subcommittee so they could go into the denial of security clearance to two com mittee staff members "and other staff matters." But the chair man wasn’t around to receive it. The denial by the Defense Department of clearance for ac cess to secret material to the two McCarthy investigators was disclosed yesterday by Senator Mundt. ,He replaced Senator McCarthy as subcommittee chair man only for the Army inquiry. Requests for clearance were made over a year ago. Wilbur M. Brucker. defense general counsel, said the department's action was final, its investiga tions of the two suffers com plete. Mr. Brucker refused to say why clearance was denied— the investigations reportedly in volved confidential reports of the fefßl and Army intelligence, But Dr. ‘White Is 77 Dr. Charles Stanley White, Washing ton’s senior surgeon, is 77 years old* today.

Telephone Installers Walk Off Jobs in Nation-Wide Strike Telephone equipment install ers in the Washington area walked off the job at 11 a.m. today as part of a Nationwide strike against Western Electric Co. Although the strike was set for 6 a.m. after a breakdown of contract negotiations in New York, the 250 workers here and in many other parts of the country continued to work until just before noon. Then they filed out of 10 tele phone exchange locations, prep aratory to meeting at 1 p.m. to map strike plans. No Immediate Picketing. There was no immediate picketing. At the Washington international office of the CIO Communications Workers of America a spokesman said the 17,000 strikers in 44 SUtes and the District definitely will picket telephone company exchanges across the Nation if the strike is not settled soon. “The decision on when the picketing will begin is up to the strike director, A. T. Jones, a CWA vice president,” the spokes man said. “When the decision is made, you can be sure all major exchanges will be af fected.” . < Strikers in-the area, ineluding suburban Maryland and Vir ginia, met at 1 pm. at the Knights of Pythias Hall, 1012 Ninth street N.W.

The new offer was 4 to 7 cents an hour compared with the previous offer of 4 to 6 cents. The union had asked 6 to 8 cents. The going wage averages %\ZS an hour. The union complained of “weakening clauses” in previous seniority, travel pay and holiday provisions.

Coming for mally took the wraps off the new, non-racial lines at a meeting of the Board of Education this morning. v Mrs. Frank S. Phillips, at ths board meeting, asked whether hearings should not be held on the boundary changes for citi zens who desired them. But other board members said they felt boundary making was an administrative prerogative and Mrs. Phillips did not press her suggestion. Dr. Coming was questioned briefly on details dl the new maps, but the board* took no formal action on the subject. The board approved, after some debate, the superintendent’s proposal to merge all colored and white eligibility lists for permanent teacher appointments. Save the Maps The complete maps of the District's new school dis tricts appearing on Pages A-14 and A-15, along with descriptive matter, form a record of vital importance to every family in the city. It is suggested that these sheets be lifted out of today’s paper and saved for future ref erence. They will be needed when schools re topen in September. Members split, 4 to 3, on this question, but Dr. Corning won majority support when he said failure to merge the lists would cause administrative difficulties and board membra Walter N.

Representative Miller, Repub lican, of Nebraska, who is a phy sician, said he had been in formed that Senator Butler suf fered a massive cerebral hem orrhage. He said he understood the Senator still was unconscious several hours after he was taken to the hospital. Dr. Miller said it appeared the Senator “has a pretty slim chance of pulling through." However, he said, if he regains consciousness soon, he may re cover. Dr. Miller added that Senator Butler was found on the floor of his bedroom, and apparently was stricken as be prepared to retire last night.
