SOCIAL SECURITY
FROM THE NORFOLK
FIELD OFFICE

Disabled people long for the day
they can be self-sufficient once
again, not only at home, but also
in the work a-day world. The 1860
amendments to the social security
law will help many disabled peo-
pie realize his dream.
One of the changes made by
these amendments will mean that
beneficiaries who go to work de-
spite severe handicaps, can con-
tinue to be paid their benefits for
12 months - whether they go to
work under a vocational rehabilita-
ton plan, or on their own.
After the first months of this
period have passed, decision will
be made as to whether the work
done by the beneficiary in those
9 months shows that he has re-
gained his ability to work. If he
is found able to engage in substan-
tial work, and therefore is no
longer disabled within the meaning
of the law, he will still be paid his
benefits for three months longer.
After this, his benefits stop.
The first 9 months need not be
consecutive. For instance, a bene-
ficiary might work 4 months, be
laid off, and then work again for
6 months. Only those months in
which he actually works or in a
type of work that is usually done
for gain are counted.
Disabled workers who go to work
are required to notify the Social
Security Administration. This may
be done by writing a letter or send
ing special post card form which
may be obtained from your social
security district office.
Disabled beneficiaries wro re-
cover from their disabilities before
they have been at work in each
of nine months and also disabled
beneficiaries who recover before
they have tested their ability to
work, will have their benefits paid
to them for three months after
they recover.
Another change in the law which
will aid disabled beneficiaries who
go back to work provides that a
disabled workers who has recovered
sufficiently to return to work does
not have to wait another 6 months
to have his payments started

NEW NUMBERING SYSTEM
BEING ESTABLISHED FOR
BELHAvEN PHONE SERVICE

After October 10 residents of Bel.
haven who subscribe to telephone
service for the first time, or whose
number is changed as the result
of change of address, will be as
signed a telephone number con-
tanning all numerals.
The announcement was made to-
day by X. c. Wilkinson, local man.
ager for Carolina Telephone, who
said that this marks the beginning
of a long-range program which
will gradually erase the letters
from the telephone dial.
The new system is known as all
number calling (ANC).
Instead of the 2 letters and S
numbers in use today, a 7-digit
number will be substituted. In con-
verting to ANC, the prefix let
tiers of the exchange name become
numbers. For example. VIII $4,000
will become 943-9OOO. Since the
letters w and H appear in the
position on the dial as 9 and d
there will be no change in operat-
ing the telephone dial.
The conversion to all number call
ing in Belhaven will be accomplish
ed gradually and may take several
years. Subscribers will receive
ample advance notice, however, be-
fore their numbers are changed.
Mr.. Wilkinson said the CONVEX
sion to ANC is part of a nation
wide plan which will result in
easier, more accurate, and faster
dialing.

Cook.
The Kill Devil Hills Mayor, in
cooperation with the North Caro-

Hodges recently sent pine tree
seeds and gravel from the first
flight site here to be placed at an
aviation shrine that is being dedi-
Gated in Japan this year to mark
the 5Oth Anniversary of the first
Japanese flight.
The Japanese flight took place
on December 10, 1910, seven years
after Wilbur and Orville Wright
made their first flights on Decem-
Ter II, 1903. The Jap flight was
made aboard a Henri Farman type
airplane at Yoyogi, Tokyo. while

Mayor Cook has been invited to
attend the Japanese First Flight

lively planning to leave on this
visit before the year has passed.
In the meantime he has been adj
vised from Japan that the pine
seeds from North Carolina and the
gravel from Kill Devil Hills which
he had forwarded had been re-
ceived by Governor Ryutaro Azuma

constitutional because "the
public interests sought to be
protected outweigh (the de-
Ifendant's) claimed right to be
set free the instant a verdict
is returned"
A lone dissent was expressed
by Judge Charles Fahy, who OBJ
jected that the insane must
have fairer safeguards for their
rights.
In the District, only some
evidence of insanity is necessary
to send a defendant to st. Eliza
bethS, where he must remain

the public and the subject and:
ITO afford a place and a pro-
cedure to rehabilitate and re-
store the subject as to whom
the standards of our society
and the rules of law do not
permit punishment or ac-
countability."
He went on to state that
even though such a patient
might have been facing a
maximum sentence of only 18
months, he can be confined in
st. Elizabeths "for two. five or
10 years-or even beyond that. ="

in 1854 felt encouraged on two
grounds:
l. Fewer defendants probably
will seek to escape jail via the
insanity route.
2. Those found insane will
be in custody for a long time.
Evening star., 1960-06-26

In addition. said Judge
Burger, the patient must prove
beyond a reasonable doubt that
he is safe and sane. This would
be very difficult to do if al
least one psychiatrist con-
tinued to believe the patient
mentally i'll or dangerous. Psy-
chiatristS frequently disagree
in their diagnoses.
The judge rejected the con-
tention that those acquitted on
insanity grounds are automat-
ically sent to a mental institu-
ton in violation of their con-
stitutional rights. The Ameri-

ground in two directions in

ton that the defendant did

tentiary, where one could be
held indefinitely for no COM

warned.

decisions.

INTERPRETIVE REPORT

frequently have freed patients
IL their time in the hospital
exceeded that which they
would have spent in Jail.
But the opinion by Judge
Warren E. Burger last week
emphasized that mo penal or
punitive considerations" should
enter into such a procedure.
The purpose of a hospital
confinement because of in
Evening star., 1960-06-26

sanity verdicts easier to gain
Tor the defendant-and con-
sequently much more frequent.
The fear arose that many
criminals would avoid punish
ment through insanity verdicts
and that crime would be en-
couraged by the softening of
the threat Of jail for the guilty.
Then came series of actions
by Congress and the courts
which eliminated last week in
two important rulings. As a
result, veteran criminal defense
lawyers now are saying insanity
should be avoided as a defense
here except in murder cases
where the death penalty might
be the only alternative.
Longer Commitments
Commitments to st. Eliza
heths now Frequently will be
considerably longer than if the
patient had pleaded guilty and
gone to Jail. Some officials are
saying that eventually the only
solution will be to follow the
laws of Great Britain.
English law provides that
hospital commitments for the
criminally insane approximately
equal the time the patients
would have spent in jail had
they been convicted.
The 1854 Durham decision
changed the century-old, legal
moral insanity definition here
from whether the defendant
knew the difference between
right and wrong at the time
Of the crime.
The Durham decision pro-
vided that if the defendant
suffered from a mental illness
at the time of the crime and
the crime was a product of
that illness, the defendant
could be acquitted because of
insanity.
Harder on Defendants
Congress then passed a law
that insanity-acquitted persons
be automatically committed to
st. Elizabeths until they were
found sane.
Since then. the courts have
made it harder for the defend
ant to prove he had regained
his sanity or could be released.
In 1858, the court ruled that
the defendant must remain at
the hospital until the Superin-
tendent there and the Judge
agreed he would no longer be
dangerous to himself or others
In the reasonable future.
Last year, the appeals court
said that patients could only
be "conditionally" released
from the hospital if they still
suffered from mental illness,
even though they were no
longer dangerous. This would
in effect place them on proba-
ton under supervision of psy-
chiatristS.
Last week, the court did |
away with all doubts about the
meaning of the word danger
ous." 1t applies to all those &C
quilted because of insanity, /
from the bad-check writer to
the murderer, the court held.
At least five District Court
judges had not agreed with
this Interpretation previously,
but had assumed that non-vio-
lent crime could not be classi-
fed dangerous"
The st. Elizabeths patients
have the traditional right to
ask for a habeas corpus hear
ing in court to show that they
should be released. The judges
