household. and all the mice knew about
it.
The pantry mostly was cold. and
filled with delicious foods, notably
cheese, which is standard mouse fare.
Furthermore. the pantry was bare
of humans-most of the time.
This permitted the honest mouse to
do his best for his wife and children,
in the best rodent tradition.
We must not forget that the rodents
are mighty tribe, probably the great

They include, besides mice and rats.
such diverse creatures as the common
squirrel, the beaver and the porcupine.
So the mouse in box, or in small
cage, as the young woman's specimen
was finally housed, is not just a.pest,
but member Of q mighty family.
He is not a mere nuisance, but a

live his own life for himself and his

Diagnosis Before Treatment

Funds requested under the new urban
renewal law will be used by the Commis-
sionerS to diagnose the ills Of part of Wash
ington's rundown Northwest section, pre-
paratory to treatment designed to restore
the neighborhood'S economic and social
health. There will be extensive surgery
eventually in at least portions of the no
toriously blighted second precinct area, with
less drastic measures where conditions war
rant. This will be pilot project in effect,
for it will be the first application of Presi-
dent Eisenhower's broad program for i'm
proving cities by combined efforts of Federal
and local agencies.
The Northwest rehabilitation enterprise
differs from the Southwest slum clearance
and redevelopment program in that more
than slum razing will be attempted. Sup
plementing the rebuilding of slum districts
will be extensive renovation and repair
undertakings in sections which the i'm
pending survey shows are susceptible of
rehabilitation. Vigorous enforcement of
housing and zoning laws in such sections
will be carried out by District inspection
authorities. This is co-ordinated opera
tion that will be watched with interest by
municipal officials everywhere. No effort
should be spared to make this critical
operation success.

Letters to The Star.

Theologians will tell us that the
right-wrong test will end on the Last
Judgment Day. AS it begin in the
the City of Jerusalem. II will gather
together all nations, and will bring
them down into the Valley of Josaphat ;"
Theologians say that not word Will
be spoken then, with no witnesses OF
arguments. The last application OF the
'right-wrong test"
Here are the words of Judge David
L. Bazelon, who wrote the Durham
decision: ". The science of psychiatry
now recognizes that a man is an
integrated personality and that rea-
son. which is only one element in that
personality, is not the sole determinant
of his conduct. The right-wrong test
which considers knowledge or reason
alone, is therefore an inadequate guide
to mental responsibility for criminal
behavior. BY its misleading en-
pfasls on the cognitive, the right
wrong test requires court and jury to
rely upon what is, scientifically speak
ing, Inadequate, and most often, invalid
and irrelevant testimony in determln-
ing criminal responsibility. :. The
fundamental objection to the right
wrong test, however, is not that
criminal responsibility is made to rest
upon an inadequate, invalid or inde-
term1nable symptom or manifestation,
but that it is made to rest upon any,
particular symptom. ... We find as
an ercLuSiDe criterion the right-wrong
test is inadequate in that (a) it does
not take sufficient account Of psychic
realities and scientific knowledge. ana
(b)a it is based upon one symptom ana
so cannot validly be applied in all
circumstances.
It is interesting in the Durham case,
that our Court of Appeals considered
the Leland case, decided by the Su-
preme Court of the United States
(343 u. S. 1900 on June 9, 1852, two
years previous to Durham. The Su-
preme Court, speaking through Mr.. JUS
tice Tom Clark, said: knowledge Of
right and wrong is the exclusive test of
criminal responsibility in majority
of American Jurisdictions. The science
of psychiatry has made tremendous
strides since that test was laid down in
McNdghten'S case but the progress OF
science has not reached point where
it's learning would compel us to require
the states to eliminate the right and
wrong test from their criminal law"
Leland was convicted of first degree
murder in Oregon under statute
which required an accused to prove
his defense of insanity beyond Tea-
sonable doubt. The conviction was
sustained by the Supreme Court.
Oregon is the only State that requires
this proof.

Durhom Decision Again

Abe Fortas writes two letters to The
Star about the Durham decision, de-
cided on July /, 1854, by the United
States Court of lAppeals for the Dis
trict Of Columbia. Like a father talk
ing to his son, Mr.. Fortas says 'let me
put it as plainly as can" and then
proceeds to instruct The Star as to
what our Court of Appeals held in
that decision. He goes on to emphasize
the fact that he was counsel in that
case "by designation of the Court OF
Appeals" and adds that The Star is
being badly advised as to the law ana
the psychiatric considerations involved.
venture the guess that If Mr.. Fortas
will talk to any one of the learned
judges of the Court of Appeals he Will
tell him that Mr.. Fortas himself. and
not The Star, has miSconstrued the de-
cision of the court.
Mr.. Fortas says that "the Monte
Durham case substituted for the right
and wrong and irresistible Impulse
tests OF insanity simple, intelliglble
standard. T.. That an accused is not
criminally responsible if his unlawful
act was the product of mental disease.
or mental defect. It Is, in my opinion,
wrong to characterize this as a more
liberal or less liberal test of Insanity.
1t is a different test. It is more
realistic and an honest test. .. -
Judge David L. Bazelon. speaking
for the court, and concurred in by
Judge Henry w. Edgerton and Judge
George T. Washington, said in four
different places that the "right-wrong
test" is Inadequate. (not different
test), and that it does not go tar
enough, because it is only one symptom
and should not be the ercLuStUe crl-
terion. In no place did he say that
the ''right-wrong test" should not be
considered with other psychlatrlc
testimony. In Durham the court seeks
to connect up the age-old right-wrong
test with scientific knowledge. Whether
this is possible remains to be seen.
Aristotle defined man as rational
animal" Our Court of Appeals says
he is rational but also a psychogenlc
personality. The Star has said many
times that it is very difficult to apply
this new test without an impossible
situation, namely, an accused found
sane at time of trial and found insane
at the time of the crime What will we
do with him? Under the Natural Law
we cut it short and say did he know
the difference between right and wrong
at the time of the act? This is the
right-wrong test.
Mr.. Fortas' points out, as does the
Court, that the McNGghten case in
England in 1843 laid down the right
wrong test" This was nothing new.
Under the Natural Law it began with
Adam and Eve in the terrestrial gar
den, when they were told "but of the
tree of knowledge OF good and eOA thou
shalt not eat." Adam and Eve had
free will.
Even in pagan Rome the right-wrong
test was recognized. Cicero gave his
definition of National Law" which
is said to be one of the most memorable
statements of all political literature.
He said that "there is in fact true
law--namely, right reaSon-which Is
in accordance with nature, applies to
all men, and is Interchangeable and
eternal. To invalidate this law by
human legislation is never morally
right, nor is it permissible ever to
restrict its operation, and to annul 1t
wholly is impossible.
