And Wife to Part

PRATO. Italy. April 9 (AP) =.
-Loriana Nunziata Bellandi'S
attorney said last night she
will seek a legal separation
from an atheist she married

Lawyer Rodolfo Becherini
said this decision followed fail
ure of an attempt at an in
formal arrangement with Lori
ana's husband, Mauro Bellandi.
Mr.. Bellandi, 33, a grocer and
an Communist, and Lori
ana, %, brought Islander
charges against Msgr. Pietro
Fiordelli. Roman Cath Ollie
bishop Of Prato. He called
them public sinners" for hav-
ing a civil instead of a church
wedding.
A Florence court a year ago

sessed a fine. The ruling shook

Plus XII expressed bitterness
and outrage" at the verdict.
Last October IS, just two
weeks after Plus died, an ap-
peals court reversed the con-
viction. It held that what the
bishop said is no crime.
The cause of the differences
between the couple is not
known. Mrs. Bellandi said 1t
had nothing to do with the
trial. She is no atheist and is
known to have had their young
son secretly baptized in a Ro-
man Catholic church.

adulterous association" with
the second woman would be
looked upon as q mere mere
tricious escapade."
Denial Is Supported
The opinion added that his
request for the money judg-
ment was properly denied.
Judge Bastian also recalled
that. in filing a claim for the
insurance money, Mr.. Mathis
admitted his relationship with
Mrs. Brantley was illegal when
he wrote that all of their six
children were Legitimate.
Thus. the opinion said. Mr..
Mathis would have to lose out.

the money to the children
since Mrs. Brantley has named
no beneficiary in the insurance
policy-the appellate judges
agreed to give a $3.50 fee to

became the court-appointed
guardian Of the six children of
the second marriage. This was
added to a fee already paid to
Mr.. Skeens in District Court. :.

Judge Bastian recalled that
Elizabeth and Willie Brantley
were married In South Carolina
in 1882 and consequently had
one child.
Never Got Divorce
They later separated and, the
opinion said, Mrs. Brantley be-

Brantley entered a second mar
riage with another woman be-

Bastian said that neither Of the
Brantleys, however, had gotten
around to getting a divorce.
Following Mrs. Brantley,s
death here in 1856. both Mr..
Brantley and Mr.. Mathis filed
claims for the insurance bene-
fits. Mr.. Mathis was charged
with firing the bullet which
killed Mrs. Brantley, but was
acquitted.

day backed a Senate bill that
would allow the United States
Attorney General to file in
junction suits to enforce school
integration and civil rights
generally.
Spokesman told a Senate
Judiciary subcommittee hear
ing yesterday they favored a
bill offered by Senator Douglas.

it would provide for such &C
ton.
Roy wilkins, executive secre-
tary of the National Associa-
ton for the Advancement Of

eral Government should assume
responsibility for enforcing the
Supreme Courts school de-
segregation decision.
Attorney Joseph L. Rauh, IT..
testified that of three civil
rights bills pending in Con-
gress, Senator Douglas was
"the one specific remedy yet
proposed to cure the cancer OF
segregation which affects our
society"
He spoke for Americans for
Democratic Action. Of which
he is vice chairman. and for
the leadership conference on
civil rights, composed Of so

Convicted Robber Fails
Again in Legal Bottle

Roosevelt @. Bailey today
lost a 212-year court battle to
alter his 1854 conviction and
sentence on four robbery
coun,s.
BAILEY, after pleading guilty
to the robbery charges in Dis
trict Court here. had been SEN
fenced to a jail term. of from
eight to "a years.
In 1856 he asked District
Court to reduce his sentence,
but this request was denied.
Also denied was Bailey's re-
quest that he be allowed to
appeal this decision.
Taking this second denial to
the United States Court of APP
pealS here, Bailey was success
full in having his case sent
back to District Court for a
hearing on whether or not he
had available to him at the
time of his trial the services
of a competent attorney. How
ever, the District Court refused
to consider this question, saying
it had already disposed of the
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1959-04-09

matter when Bailey asked for
his reduction in sentence.
But Bailey went back to the
Court Of Appeals. which ordered
a District Court hearing on the
issue of competent counsel.
At this hearing, Bailey testi-
fed that he pleaded guilty only
because he had been promised
by his lawyer he would get q
lighter sentence in this way.
Today's opinion, written by APP
pellate Judge John A. Danaher.
noted that Bailey did get a
lighter sentence, since the court
could have given him a SEN
tence of S to is years in each
of the four cases, to run con-
secutively.
With judges Walter M. Bas-
tian and Warren E. Burger
concurring. Judge Danaher
said that following the hear
ing, the District Court correctly
ruled that Bailey had been eff
fectively represented by his
lawyer when he pleaded guilty.

Geneva Talks Hit

BY II. v. LANCASTER, Jr.

BY II. V. LANCASTER, Jr.
The Geneva talks between the
foreign ministers of the U. S.. Bri-
tain, France. and the Soviet Union
were scheduled to begin Monday
However, Russian demands that
East Germany be seated at the
diplomatic table threatened to break
up the high level conference before
1t even started.
A Russian spokesman said Satur-
day that the most important tasks
facing the Big Four are peace
treaty with Germany, and an end
to Allied occupation Of Berlin
Shortly after that he pulled the East
Germany "cat" out Of the bag, and
the talks were begged down before
they even started.
Secretary of State Herter left
Washington Friday for the Geneva
talks in a hopeful but not too Opt
mistic spirit. He visited Germany's
Chancellor Adcnaucr before going
to the conference. President Eiscn-
hover said at his weekly news CON

meeting if progress is made at the
foreign ministers level. But the
State Department made it clear in
note to Russia there will be no
summit talks if the Sovicts turn
over control Of Western access to
Berlin to the East Germans or signs
