NEW YORK.-Maly physicians and

united In movement to consider rad

: In cases or alleget insane persons
on trial for commisin Of crime, most
courts have ruled tina the only proper
legal criterion was thu test of respon-
sibility. consisting Of the capacity to
understand the natur and quality OF
the act and TO distinguish between the
right and the wrong OF IL.
This Is considered totally made
quate by numerous bctors and law.
yers who have made q study OF the
sons who have committed crime and
are insane have been able To grasp
clearly the distinction between the
right and wrong OF sucl a crime. 1t Is
contended that a fairer test would be
that OF the uncomfortable insane i'm
pulse. or In other wOrCs, was the de-
tendant victim OF an irresistible
frenzy for killing?
I While several states nave admitted
such defense, Notwithstanding the
capacity to distinguish between right
and wrong. others have expressed
icubt whether there is any such thing
rs irresistible insane impulse, and,
while admitting the possibility, con-
cluded that to apply 1t as a test OF
capacity to commit crime would be
too dangerous and difficslt, and that
In any event an impulse sufficiently
strong to render the insane person
governed by II irresponsible must gen.

ity to distinguish as well as choose
