the hospital superintendent the
responsibility for releasing the
defendant.
The committee therefore pro-
posed that a defendant acquitted
on grounds Of insanity must be
sent to a mental hospital. This
release procedure was proposed:
The hospital superintendent
would send q certificate to the
court where the defendant was
tried and acquitted - District,
Municipal or Juvenile Court
that the patient had recovered
his sanity and was no longer a
danger to himself or the public.
The certificate would then be
served on the prosecutor-the
United States Attorney or the
Corporation Counsel, depending
on where the case was tried. The
prosecutor would have Is days
to protest and ask for a hearing,
or the court ON its own motion
could decide to hold a hearing.
If there was no demand for a
hearing and the court did not
feel it necessary to hold one. the
court on the basis of the hospital
certificate could release the pa
tent.
If a hearing were held and
the court did not agree with the

weekly for check-ups for a speci-
fed period. The committee
thought this conditional release
procedure would give the public
IAN increased feeling of Sc
curity."
Another proposed amendment
would eliminate the cumber-
some procedure now followed
when a prisoner under sentence
becomes mentally Ill in prison.
At present. the prosecutors of
flee must be notified and a jury
trial follows. Under the proposed
change. if psychiatrist re-
ported the prisoner was mentally
i'll. he would go direct to a men,
tai hospital until he recovered.
. Then he would go back to prison.
The committee making the
investigation and report included
Mr.. Hart, representing the Dis
trict Bar Association: Leroy H.
Mckinney. representing the
Washington Bar Association;
Hugh F. Rivers. District parole
executive; Donald A. Clemmer,
director of the Department Of
Corrections. and Corporation

trial. trial or post-trial proceed
ings as to the mental compe-
tency or sanity of the defendant
The committee emphasized that
this was no general waiver Of
privilege but stripped away
privilege only on questions Of
mental conditions and only
where the defendant pleaded in
sanity.
After acquittal on grounds of
insanity-The law now provides
that after a defendant is found
not guilty by reason of insanity,
the court may commit him to
the Secretary of the Department
of Health. Education and Well
fare who then may commit him
to a mental hospital. The hos
pitai superintendent then re-
leases the patient when he con-
siders the patient has recovered
his sanity.
The committee decided that
too much discretion was involved
and that it was too easy for a
defendant acquitted of crime
because of insanity to be free to
prey on the community again.
The committee felt that commit
ment should be mandatory and
that the court should share with

superintendent recommends
ton. the patient would go back
to the mental hospital. The pro-
posed draft specified that the
patient would always have the
right to come into court under
habeas corpus proceedings.
Proposal on Release
The committee also proposed
a procedure for conditional re-
lease where the hospital thought
the patient could benefit by a
partial return to the community
and it was safe to let him go,
under supervision.
The committee believed that
this conditional release would as

NIT trial release and assure i'm

release was premature. The same
procedure would be followed as
in the unconditional release, but
the court would set the condi-
tons of the trial release. The
court could provide that the pa
tient be allowed to leave the hos
pital for several days a week or
could provide that he return

Is q violation Of the Doctor
patient privilege and this priyi-
Iege cannot be waived unless the
accused agrees. The accused, of
course. would not agree to UNI
favorable testimony. The court
ruled that a psychiatrist who
merely examined a defendant
could testify. but not a psychia-
trist who had treated him.
The committee decided that
the law as interpreted by the
appellate court makes it virtually
impossible for the prosecutor to
use competent psychiatric testi-
mony in cases where insanity is
the defense.
The committee also felt that
this Interpretation of the law
would lead inevitably TO short
examinations rather than pro-
longed observation. With such
examinations. the committee
agreed. malingerers could escape
detection and persons with deep
seated mental illnesses might be
pronounced sane.
The committee therefore pro-
posed amending the privilege
statute of the District code to
provide that where a defendant
raises the defense of insanity,
psychiatrists may testify at pre-

sistihle impulse" at the time of
the crime.
Under the Durham decision
last July. the court ruled that a
defendant could not be held
criminally responsible for his
act II it was the product of a
mental disease or mental defect.
The decision was widely praised
and attacked amid suggestions
that a law should be written to
define insanity.
The committee decided that
the right-wrong and irristible
impulse tests were too restricted
and didn't give juries any essen
tial guidance. Committee men,
bers agreed that the Durham
test-while not the ultimate
represents a desirable advance
because it permits the psychiat-
rist to testify on the whole
framework of the defendants
mental condition.
The committee decided against

defining insanity for these rea-
sons: Since psychiatry Is q
growing and changing science.
any definition written into law
now might prove fallacious In q
few years and laws once on the
books are hard to change. On
the other hand. if the Durham
definition proved defective or
outmoded, the courts could
quickly change it. Further. very
few persons would ever agree on
a single definition of insanity.
And finally, with the other pro-
posed changes, q balance would
be achieved to give the public
sufficient protection.
Testimony of psyehiatrists at
trials-Before last March, the
Government could rebut claims
of insanity by calling hospital
pSychiatrists who had had the
defendants under close observa-
ton for many months. Despite
the changed insanity tests under
the Durham decision, the prose-
cutors had an 80 per cent con-
viction rate in cases where in
sanity was the defense.

March, the appellate court ruled

He denied that Russia has
made any direct or indirect APP
proaches beyond public state
ments Of the Moscow govern
ment.
This was the clearest. strong
est statement from Japan's new
government on making peace
and restoring relations with the
Soviet Union. Mr.. Shigemitsu
insisted any new moves must
come from the Russians.
AS for recognizing Communist
China, Mr.. Shigemitsu said "the
situation is much more compli-
Gated and we must shape our
policy in accordance with the
developments Of the global situ-
alton. For the present, we shall
encourage trade with her within
the limits Of our international
commitments"
The veteran diplomat, who
signed Japan's surrender. spoke
at a formal press conference.
He said Japan was going ahead
in its delicate maneuvers with
the Communist powers in full
and continuous consultation with
the United States and Japan's
other allies.
Asked If his government was
under any pressure from the
United States on the Communist

1t is the first proposal OF its
