Two psychiatrists at Bellevue

chronic mental disorder charac-

Matteawan State Hospital for

That was four years ago. Mr..
Rosario, then IS, a married

appeared in Bronx criminal
court on a charge Of felonious
assault.
Police said he had kicked
his wife, Carmen, in the stom-
ach and swung a baling hook
at her and at a patrolman who
subdued and arrested him.
The charge was reduced to
simple assault. and Mr.. Ro-
sario was sent to Bellevue for
observation. Later he was COM
mitted to Matteawan.

in Newport, r. I.
He was seized about midnight
while sitting in his parked car
with one Of the Russian dip
lomats behind q diner on the
Boston Post Road in Larch-
mont, N. Y, a suburb of New

The two Russians were iden2

Soviet Mission to the U. N.
Diplomatic Immunity
The FBI said the Russians
were questioned and named as
co-conspirators with Yoeman
Drunmond. but were not ar
rested because Of their diplo-
matte status.
Drummond was brought
in handouts from Westchester
County to FBI headquarters in
Manhattan early today. The
Russians also were taken into
the city. but were released un-

three other Soviet diplomats
identified them at FBI head
quarters.
The FBI filed q complaint
charging Drummond with un-
lawfully conspiring to trans
init information relating to the
national defense of the United
States to the two Russians. Mr..
Hoover said the information
consisted Of classified Navy
instruction manuals relating
to many phases Of military
operations.
The agent who first reached
Drummond's car found on
the seat, between the sailor
and Prokorov, eight classified
naval documents. The FBI said
the two Russians followed

lance the whole while, Vyrodov
entered the diner while Prok-

beside the sailors.

Senate 10 Act

Plan May. Delay
Congress Windup
BY J. A. OLEARY
Star staff Writer

As the Senate met today to
act on q $50 billion public
works appropriation bill, the
plans Of congressional leaders
to adjourn next week were still
threatened by a controversy
over a private pension bill for
self-employed individuals.
Senator Smathers, Democrat
of Florida, cast a cloud over
the adjournment picture yes
terday by serving notice he will
do all he can to keep Congress
in session long enough to pre-
vent a pocket veto of the pri-
vate pension bill.
Okayed by Senate
The Senate completed action
on that measure yesterday BY
the top-heavy vote Of 70-S.
Previously it had passed the
House, 1910. But the President
has 10 days. starting today, to
decide whether to sign or veto.
Excluding Sundays, this
would give him at least until
October 10 to make up his
mind. He could. of course, re-
veal his decision earlier. But If
Congress adjourned during the
To-day period, Mr.. Kennedy
could kill the bill with a pocket
veto. which would deprive Con-
gress Of a chance to override.
Democratic leaders persuaded
Senator Smathers to let the
public works bill be acted on
today by promising they would
try to find out during then
ekly conference with the
President Tuesday what he
plans to do with the pension
bill.
The controversial measure,
which has been pending in
Congress for more than 10
years. would let doctors, law
yers and other self-employed
individuals set aside 10 per cent
of their annual earned income
to finance their own retire.
ment, up to a maximum of
81, 500 a year. They could take
a tax deduction for half of
whatever is set aside. but the
maximum deduction would be
81, ESQ.
Any individual taking advan-
tage of this pension plan would
be required to provide coverage
also for any employees who have
been at work for three years.
Override Votes Seen
Supporters of the bill believe
they have more than the two
thirds in both Houses necessary
to override a veto, but Senator
Smathers said he wants to be
sure the bill is not killed after
Congress has gone home.
Although Mr.. Kennedy sug-
gested a few days ago that this
pension plan would be a suit
able question to consider as
part of the general tax reform
program in the next Congress,
he did not say definitely wheth-
er he would sign or veto it.

NEW ORLEANS, Sept. %
(AP)-Lt. Gov. Paul B. John-
son of Mississippi did not
appear today to answer Federal
contempt charges stemming
from his blocking Of Negro
James H. Meredith at the gates
Of the University Of Mississippi.
The 5th United States Circuit
Court of Appeals started the
contempt hearing without Mr..
Johnson-as it did yesterday
when Gov. Ross Barnett failed
to appear to answer similar
charges.
The court threw down the
gauntlet in front Of the ga
year-old Governor late yeSter-
day-telling him either to stop
interfering with Mr.. Meredith's
enrolment attempts or face the
prospect Of jail and q $4,000
a-day fine.
The court gave Gov. Barnett
a Tuesday deadline to comply
with court orders.
Mr.. Meredith was in the
court room at the start of
JohnSon's hearing, as he was

mot have q lawyer present.
The court denied the motion.
Mr.. Satterfield then sought
to move for dismissal Of the
complaint against Mr.. john
Ison.
Again. the court refused.
Forces Mass
Still another shadow of
trouble for the defiant Missis-
sippians arose at Memphis,
Tenn, 81 fast highway miles to
the northwest. There the Fed
eral Government massed United
States marshals and hurriedly
gathered groups of other Fed
eral peace officers. Giving
them a housekeeping hand was
a detachment of ITO Army En-
gineers.
They bivouacked at Milling
ton Naval Air Station, where a
source said the marshals num-
bered 402 at sundown yester-
day, and that the number Of
troops actually had reached $40
instead Of 110.
But these grim reminders Of
the historic struggle between
Mississippi and the United
States Government - greatest
and gravest since the Civil War
remained over the sunny
horizon. And skylarking stu
dents made ready to go to jack
son, the State capital, for the
