Richest Mans Son Feted
At Embassy Dinner Here
BY BETTY BEALE

George Getty II, son of the

New York for Philippine Am

very successful dinner

it was a gay dancing do.
PAUL GETTY'S eldest son
is a goodlooking young man
with black hair, black eyes,
olive compexion and a con-
Suming interest in business.
AS president of the Tide
water Oil Co., which inciden-

Philippines, he makes his
home in Los Angeles where
his mother, the first Of his
fathers five wives, lives. He
has been married for IL
years to a pretty brunette
who is the mother Of his
three children and who was
here with him.
His father, whom he often
refers to as Mr.. Getty"
hates publicity, said George,
and nobody ever heard of
him until Fortune magazine
did a story on him a few
years ago, calling him the
richest man in the world.
Actually, he said, his father

A 27-year-old mental pa

Court was told today.
The mother, who has never

them by mental patients, the

is now 10 years old.
A girl was born seven years
ago, two other children fol-
lowed, and the fourth hospital
child, a boy, was born 10
months ago.
Taken to Juvenile Court to-
day, the youngest child was
committed by Judge Ketcham
to the Department of Public
Welfare, which has custody of
the other children.
The mental patients mother
said her daughter was assigned
to laundry and kitchen work
and was allowed on the hos
pital grounds. But she was per-
mitted to leave the grounds
from time to time, hospital au-
thoritieS said.
The older woman said she
could not care for her grand
children because she had to
support another daughter who
is suffering from polio.

hospital superintendent, said
he did not know about the case

Reached by telephone at his
home where he is recuperating

mates to look into it.

propose to run a jail here. These
things happen on the outside
and sometimes they are going
to happen in here. You can't
shut a patient up for life"
The acting superintendent,
DR.. Dale Cameron, said he is
checking the court statements
against hospital records.
Attorney Kay said the mother
hopes to marry the father of
her youngest child, but that she
will probably be committed for
some time to come"
He asked Judge Ketcham
what could be done about the
general situation, and the judge
answered, There are some
things that the community just
isn't able to prevent"
Although he felt it is not d
matter of law but of social
service control. Judge Ketcham
said he would be glad to discuss
the case with DR.. Overholser.

Freezing Wind
To Bring 100 Low
In Area Tonight

A freezing wind from the
West blew into the Washington
area today, plunging tempera-
lures. toward an expected low
of 10 degrees tonight and the
coolest weather of the fall
season.
The forecaster said the cold
wave will last for the next five
days, with temperatures ranging
to eight degrees below normal.
Some rain or snow is expected
by Sunday.
Most people were asleep when
Washington had the days high
est temperature reading of Al
degrees at 3 am. After that
cold air from the stormbound
Central States began sweeping
into the area and the mercury
dropped.
The temperature had fallen
to 40 degrees by 8 am. today,
and was expected to hit the
freezing mark by nightfall.
The Weather Bureau fore
caster said indications are that
the low tonight will be between
I8 and 20 degrees in the city and
10 degrees in the suburbs.
The seasons previous low of
% degrees was registered on
December 9.
There is just one consolation
The forecaster said it will be a
sunny and clear cold snap.
In it's cold wave warning, the
Weather Bureau said the ther-
mometer would plunge to zero
in Western Maryland tonight
and anywhere from 10 degrees
upward elsewhere in Maryland
and Virginia.

INTERPRETIVE REPORT

concerned it is still a prelimi-
nary step which hopefully could
reveal enough flexibility on the
Russian side to justify a full
fledged negotiation. From the
French viewpoint, it is no more
than a routine diplomatic eXer-
else designed to find out what
lies behind the recent Russian
tough talk on Berlin and other
subjects.
There is still some confusion
as we'll over the extent to which
the French are now prepared
to participate in the probing
process.
Faint Hope
Hope is expressed in some
quarters that French Ambas-
sador Maurice DeJean may now
be instructed to join his British
and American colleagues in
their effor to search out For
eign Minister Gromyko's elusive
soft spots. From the French
side, however, there has been
little to encourage this hope.
And the answer will probably
be clearer after Secretary
Rusk's meeting with President
de Gaulle this evening.
Essentially, however, it would
seem that the answer to
whether OF not there are to be

However, he authorized con-
tinued development work.
Problems Crop Up
A number of technical prob
lens cropped up. including de-
sign of the trains which would
have carried the missile.
At the time, administration
of ficials said the decision to
concentrate on the fixed-base
Minuteman would mean the
Government could buy $50 mis-
Siles for the Price of 80 mobile
units.
This is because eaU:. fixed
base squadron will have so
rockets, as compared with 80
for each moving squadron.
Officials said the mobile bases
cost about so per cent more
than the fixed bases dug deep
into the ground.
Backers of the mobile Min
uteman plan have said that the
move m e n t of these missiles
would make it extremely diff
cult, if not impossible, for an
enemy to knock them out with
his own missiles.
Mr.. Kennedy last January

Reads 20-Minute Speech
In a Commute prepared
speech, Eichmann told the
court he was a tool in a vast
NaZi machine. Ever since the
Hitler Reich collapsed. he said,
other Nazis had shifted the
blame for the determination
plot onto him. They are the
liars, not he, Eichmann con-
tended.
The three-man tribunal heard
him out and then announced
sentence will be passed Friday
morning. There seemed little
doubt that it will be the death
penalty, which never before has
been imposed in Israel.
Execution Method Not Named
Attorney General Gideon
HauSner opened the session in
the packed courtroom with a
demand for the death penalty
from the court that found Eich-
mann guilty of capital crimes
in the wartime slaughter of {
million Jews in Europe under
Hitler.
There can be one sentence
for him and no other" Mr.
Hausner declared in a one hour
speech.
He did not name the method
of execution. That is up to the
court if it decides on death.

hanging.

True, the defense attorney
said, Eichmann did nothing to
reduce the fury of the slaughter
but he repeated that Eichmann

When asked if he had any,

Eichmann rose, opened a folder
and began to read;

events. The slaughter was the

Eichmann's deep voice was
unwavering as he addressed his
judges for the final time in the
trial.

1T is a great mistake to as

the persecution of the Jews"
he said. Il have been enraged

And the other NATO ministers
in turn now have a chance to
pass their own Judgment on the
results of the two-day meeting
of the Big Four which ended
here last night.
These results, by even most
optimistic measure, are meager
enough.
The four ministers, to be
sure, reached an agreement"
last night after q long and oc-
casionally heated argument.
But today in various delega-
tions and in the press one can
discern rather serious areas OF
disagreement about what this
agreement means and what. if
anything, the ministers have
decided to do.
Split Decision
Some things are clear enough.
The French quite clearly have
carried their argument that the
time is not ripe for a formal
approach to the Russians for
new negotiations on Berlin.
They lost the argument that
the time was also not ripe for
a renewal of the diplomatic
probe" of the Russian position
that has been carried on
sporadically by the British and
Americans since last summer.
The dispute now revolves
around what this probe is eX-
pected to accomplish. So far as
