Indonesia observed the 18th
anniversary of its independ-
ence yesterday. And tiny
Gabon, in central Africa, its
second.
For the Indonesians, it was
an especially joyous occasion,
because 1t conceded with the
transfer to that country of
the control of New Guinea by
the Netherlands.
Ambassador Zairin Zain,
who took part in the transfer
negotiations in New York,
had to hurry back from that
city to be most at a reception,
given at the chancery, to
mark the anniversary.
The 700 guests who at
tended included Mr.. Emile
L. c. Schiff, the Minister Of
the Netherlands. The AM
baSsador of the Netherlands
was not present because he
was on his way to his coun-
try for consultations.
The Gabonese anniversary
also was celebrated with a
large reception by the Ambas-
sador of that country and
Mrs. Jules Mbah.
Guests heard the pleasing
news that Mrs. Mbah is ex-
pecting her fifth child in
October.
Her four other children,
Martial, 7. Radegonde, S.
Patricia, 3, and Henri, 2, are
with her in Washington.
But for the reception they
were confined to the second
story of the Embassy.
Dignitaries on the Go
The two receptions took
place during the same hours
and the dignitaries attended
first one and then the other.
For the Dean of the
Diplomatic Corps Ambassador
Sevilla-Sacasa of Nicaragua,
the Gabonese party was his
341st this year, and the Indo-
nesian party the 342d.
Mrs. Dean Rusk, wife of
the Secretary of State, who
went to the Indonesian func-
ton first, said she did not
have a third party on her
calendar for the evening, and
that she was looking for
ward to a quiet supper with
her 13-year-old daughter,
Peggy.
Mrs. Rusk revealed that

The Supreme Court is being
asked to scrap one of last
terms more important deci-
sions because the high court
decided the case of a dead man.
Only after the court ruled
unconstitutional a California
law making it a crime to be
addicted to narcotics or to use
them without a prescription
was it discovered that the
plaintiff had died eight months
before.
The Supreme Court does not
render advisory opinions and
traditionally considers only ac-
tual cases or controversies.
The case provoked wide in
terest. 1t was carefully argued,
and five of the eight partici-
pating justices filed separate
written opinions.
In the majority opinion. JUS
tice Stewart said State laws
that send narcotics addicts to
Jail as criminals inflict a cruel
and unusual punishment"
He said the California law
made the status of narcotics
addiction a criminal offense
for which the offender could
be prosecuted "at any time be-
fore he reforms"
The law under which the
plaintiff, Lawrence Robinson.
was convicted provided for a
mandatory jail term of at least
80 days. After this, probation
could be awarded.
Robinson was arrested Febru-
airy 4, 1860, in Los Angeles, tried
under the California law and
convicted. He appealed to Cali
fornia Superior Court and lost.
On August 5. 1861, Robin
son. who was 26, died in an

cal report listed the cause as

van route to Boston. This fol-
lowed the ending of an ar
rangement to escort the mail
vans whenever a large ship
ment of money was being sent
to the Federal Reserve Bank Of
Boston from member banks on
vacation-rich Cape Cod.
The Boston Globe reported
today a State police spokesman
said the Yarmouth barracks
sent a cruiser after the mail
van Tuesday night but was un-
able to overtake it.
State police say they removed
their escort last month when
postal authorities said the runs
we're going to be made in ar
mored cars.
However, postal officials said
the State police escort was ter
minated at the request of State
police. who said they had a
manpower shortage.
/ One suspect voluntarily un-
derwent a lie detector test at
State police headquarters in
Boston yesterday. A second
man also was on hand for the
| polygraph test but there was
not enough time for it to be
administered.
A couple who said they saw
one of the mail bandits made
up a composite face of the sus-
pect yesterday and it bore a
striking resemblance to a COM
posite put together from infor-
nation supplied by Patrick
Schema, the van driver, and
William F. Barrett. the van
guard.
The couple. whose identity
was withheld by authorities,
said they were stopped by a
man wearing a police uniform
when they went through a de-
tour sign on Route 3 Tuesday
night.
Police said the men set up
stolen detour signs to keep
Route 3 free of traffic while
they were robbing the money

Court Asked to Scrap
Ruling in Bizarre Case

lawyers. and the. case went on.
A request that the Supreme
Court hear the case was made
August l8, and the high court
agreed in a brief order Novem-
Der 20.
The case was argued last
April II. The courts opinion
was handed down on June IS,
the last day of the term. sSs
Only then was it learned,
with some shock, that the man
whose case was decided had
been dead about eight months.
The State of Californis's re-
quest last month for a stay
of the ruling was granted by
Justice Stewart, who wrote the
majority opinion.
The State in its petition
for rehearing, argues that the
case was moot and was not
properly before the high court
for consideration because of
Robinson's death.
The State also asks dismissal
of the case or a rehearing in
the light of new State legisla-
ton.
Robinson's lawyer. however,
argues that the decision should
stand. He has stated nothing
would be gained by dismissal
and that the ruling was a good
one.
The lawyer said Robinson's
death made him a martyr ana
that withdrawal Sufferings of
other addicts who are sent to
jail under the old law, should
be stopped. H
How Robinson'S death went
unnoticed is hard to under
stand. His lawyer said he had
moved to another city and had
not seen his client since the
appeal was launched.
The California attorney
general said the Government
did not learn of the death be-
cause Robinson was on pro-
baton.
