Denied
New Heariinq
Law Qualification
Effort Fails

Governme nt prosecutors
failed today in an effort to gain
a Qualification Of court decisions
involving insanity and use Of
confessions as the United States
Court of Appeals for the Dis
trict turned down a rehearing
of the Russell E. Carter case.
United States Attorney Oliver
Gasch asked for q rehearing Of
the reversal Of Carriers 1856
murder conviction two weeks
ago.
Carter, 20, murdered l5-year-
old Caroline Nelson in her home
at 1912 Georgia avenue in May,
1855. He was convicted, after
pleading not guilty on the basis
of insanity, but the Appellate
Court reversed the conviction
in December, 1856.
Decision Last Month
An opinion stating the rea-
sons for the reversal was not
handed down until last month.
The courts main points in TAX
ing its action involved inter-
pretations of the Durham de-
cision on insanity handed down
in 1854 and the Mallory de-
cision on confessions last June.
M. Gasch. in his request for
a rehearing Of the case, claimed
that the two decisions have
caused monumental con-
fusion" among defense attor-
neys. trial judges and prose-
cutors in knowing how to
handle such cases.
The Carter case was decided
by q three-judge panel Of the
Appeals Court, and Mr.. Gasch

bench of the court to review
the case and clarity" the in
tent Of the two decisions.
The denial of the rehearing
was decided by all nine judges

D. G. Law Enforcement
Barriers Moy Be Probed

The possibility Of a House
District Committee inquiry into
the Districts machinery for
Furnishing law breakers arose
today.
Committee Chairman Nc
MILAN said by telephone from
his home at Florence, S. c.,
that he planned to discuss the
matter next week when he re-
turns to Washington on other
committee business.
A call for investigation by
the committee also came from
Representative Patterson, Re-
publican of Connecticut, who
stated in correspondence that
he would ask for the appear
ance Of Chief Robert v. Muir
ray and Deputy Chief Clarence
Lutz before the group.
Lutz Cites Difficulties
! Both Developments stemmed
from a talk last Wednesday by
Chief Lutz. who has announced
his retirement next spring, in
which the police of1icial said
he had been stymied in efforts
to combat crime mainly because
laws and courts do not lend
police enough support.
He blamed much of the vice
here on restrictive laws that
prevent police from collecting
and using the evidence they
need to convict.
United States Attorney Oliver
Gasch backed him up. citing the
Supreme Court decisions in the
Mallory case and the Durham
doctrine on insanity as two
primary reasons for a WIDE
spread failure to obtain con-
victions.
Mr.. Mcmillan said today he
thought his committee should
make an inquiry into the need
for changing Washington;

Mr.. Mcmillan suggested Il
was likely an inquiry into the
situation would be made by 9
